Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Dansky]

Read where WNBA is going to ride Caitlin Clark for what it's worth. Out of a 40 game schedule 36 of Indiana's games will be on National Television.

WNBA going all in with Caitlin.

Well nba rode Larry bird and magic Johnson to high ratings. Then Jordan came along.

[engineerVOL]

[knoxvol52]

Good news, but you're a sumbitch for putting REO in my head for the rest of the day.

We're just Riding The Storm Out.

Heard it from a friend who, heard from a friend who, heard from another that Awaka will remove his name from the portal by the end of the week.

You cant tune a fish

Three years probation with a fine and no scholarship losses or postseason restrictions. Each coach (excluding Harbaugh) involved has a one year show cause and all three are already with the Chargers. Bated breath awaiting the righteous outrage from talking heads on this one.

The NCAA is so crooked.

I can tune a guitar though

 

[pismonque]

I can tune a guitar though

Is it a bass?

 

[GoodTimeVol]

The NCAA is so crooked.

Harbaugh got a 1 year show cause unless they don’t consider him a “participating” member, funny how they don’t mention the “coaches” by name. But were proud to give Pearl a 3 year show cause for the very same violation…

[DD4ME]

Not buying it personally. Quickly anyway. Just due to existing TV contracts.

 

[Volunteer821]

Make that 12-4, Antigua singles in a run!

 

[Orange_Crush]

Not sure how you miscalculated. Maybe because there are only 12 WNBA teams. Have to keep that in mind.

The NBA's player union has guaranteed the players at least 53% of the revenue.

From the same site:

Fwiw this made obvious sense to me from the go. Just consider overhead. OH is easily covered with 10 billion dollars. Plenty left over for 53% labor rates. Especially if you can get municipalities to constantly foot CAPEX bills...

Meanwhile $60 million leaves little room to cover OH. When the league is already in the red...and covering OH expenses is simply required...you're just asking owners to lose even more. NOW this does work in some leagues, such as Russian womens' pro ball where billionaires don't mind losing money to have winning teams. And maybe some owners will come along in the states for CC...and eventually turn it into a profit. But as of this time, the math doesn't math for those looking to profit off the league franchises.

It was a quick comparison of gross revenue to average salary. The point being that they make pretty good money for a sport that doesn't make any $$$.

Correct, it's already been reported that the SEC and BIG would not meet with the reps.
