I think he's in a nursing home and they forgot to restrict his internet access....
God I hope not. It would be cruel and unusual punishment to put other people in a facility with a relentless blowhard whoās so completely enamored with the sound of his own voice.
Absolutely correct on the Bo take. I liked Bo . But it was like a bad relationship and it was time for both to move on. The biggest problem was we had an idiot ( Eichorst) in the AD position and a bigger idiot ( Perlman) above him. They had zero idea on who to hire.
When comparing to Texas, look at the California recruits signed during the same period, from a state we didnt play in:
Maurice Purify
Marlon Lucky
Roy Helu
Quincy Enunwa
Dejuan Gomes
Eric Martin
Taylor Martinez
Carl Nicks
Several other guys too, like Thunder Collins, Cameron Meredith, and Ricky Thenarse. Guys who started but were ok at best.
But it was the lost Texas pipeline that hurt us. Lol. People will convince themselves of anything.

None of the CA guys you listed played on even a conference title team
Which is the entire point. Obviously.
Nothing can overcome the inherent softness woven into the very fiber of CA playersā DNA.
There's good players everywhere. Some states have more than others obviously. Need a staff that stays together. Is successful and is willing to put in the work
Lawrence Phillips, Abdul Muhammad, and Brendan Stai didn't seem to be real soft....
Because those guys had no choice thanks to the toughness emanating from the TX/NJ/NE/FL guys
of course, that's not what i wrote at all. i said there was not enough additional (incremental) revenue generated from any acc school to justify taking them. revenue is not cost. and yes, the b12 cash infusion might be used to free fsu and clemson from their acc grant of rights. be that a "hail mary" or not, it's a reasonable option and rationale for bringing private equity. what i wrote:
there's not enough additional revenue for either conference to spend money freeing any acc school.
Haha. One of those Cali boys literally had a Nebraska small-towner hiding in a closet.
Yea. Everyone knows Scott frost is a pussy and an embarrassment to his family name and home state.
Heās never allowed back in NE.
Larry was just doing what he saw the leaders of the program doing.
My manā¦ you said what you said and I called you on it. Nobody needs you to explain, qualify or frame your statements. This whole thread is you convincing yourself that selling off part of your conference rights to a private equity firm is really actually a good thing. Thatās been the theme and tone of everything youāve posted ITT. (sometimes actually stating it in plain English, which I called you on)
But by all means, believe whatever you want. Doesnāt really matter to me, I just need to push back on your BS every once in awhile. Watching you double and triple down on stupid is mildly entertainingā¦ (like a dog chasing his tail entertaining)
well, it is hard to debate someone who does not understand the difference between grant of rights cost and incremental revenue from the acquired assets. i will give you that.
What a dumb generalization about California and the West Coast in general. You obviously have not spent any time in West Coast cities. Nor have you lived in an area that has a significant Samoan population. I want to watch you run for your life as you hold onto your skirt running away from an angry Samoan kid after you tell him he is soft. Good Luck with that.
soft response from what I can only assume is a CA native
The new Big 12 is like a bunch of fat chicks at closing time at the bar. Just waiting for that special guy who's drunk enough to jump on the grenade.š
I mean, how do they sell their recruits on their conference? I get to play Iowa State??? Anyone that wants to play against the best is going to go to the P2. It's over for the Kotex 12.
wow, we're all over ad hominem today. and it's just saturday but less than 100 days before reality hits once more.
Haha look at the pathetic attempt again. @AVeritas please pay attention to me..... Haha. So desperatewow, we're all over ad hominem today. and it's just saturday but less than 100 days before reality hits once more.
Why move to a much tougher league just for an extra $10 million a year? What can they do with $55 million (or whatever it would be) that they cannot accomplish with $45 million? Raises for the athletic department and increasing their budget? A leadership retreat to Bora Bora every winter?
I see a lot of mixed reports on Nebraska's NIL effort. On one hand you see a lot of complaining they we're not competitive and on the other hand you see reports by some people involved (Blake Lawrence) that Nebraska is very much in the top echelon of NIL. Without any factual reporting available (or required) it's had to sort through the contradicting statements.
A 50 team league isn't really a league any more is it? But then I guess leagues already aren't what they used to be. When Tennessee and A&M matched up in the finals of the CWS, we had two SEC teams that really knew nothing about each other other than matching up once in the SEC tourney.
If schools are truly going to start directly paying players then we will know soon enough who has the money and commitment.
But I assume there likely will still also be undisclosed NIL payments on top of whatever the players officially get paid by the school unless the players have to sign contracts giving away their personal media rights to the school in return for payment. But I doubt the contracts would require that stipulation. We'll see what evolves.
GTFO whacko. You wouldn't know a fact if it smacked you in the face. Go to the kitty board. You've overstayed your welcome... Pretty quick imho.
Oook. I doubt you're gonna get any argument that NU has under performed since the inception of the CFP.wow, we're all over ad hominem today. and it's just saturday but less than 100 days before reality hits once more.
kford is a pretty reliable set of facts, used by many talking heads and elsewhere. they're not mine.
