So it happens that an extra 15 mil per year is headed our way per year with the new teeebee contract. How’s that ‘we don’t have money to fire’ bs gonna hold up next week when all the fans have gotten the memo?

Get yer popcorn ready

It’s already earmarked for new bleachers.

Indiana gets screwed. Ohio State gets coasted in....... IU AD speaks as a true leader. I hope Northwestern boat races OSU. Screw the Buckeyes!

Yeah, you gotta ask yourself, on a neutral field, would A&M or FL be favored against OSU? For FL, we saw their D is suspect, on the other side of the coin, A&M's Offense can be suspect.

I figure they have a little time before the entire fanbase gets the info. but once everyone has it hoooooooooboy! Ish is gonna get real and it was already only gonna build.

Comparing BCS standings to third CFB Playoff rankings

I think Ohio state would run both. Fields would win the heisman vs Florida’s defense.

Will be interested to see if grantham is their DC next year after they get 50 hung on them by bama. Especially how they have been public ally arguing

That’s it, and that’s not just due to covid.

Real question is what have they been spending the tv money on before hand? Didn’t we get $40+ million last year?

 

[rekinhavoc]

Or he tells the recruits to chill.

Whatever he told Wolfe didn't work.

Which BCS? The one where schedule mattered? The one that began to place emphasis on style points? The one that became little more than an affirmation of what polls thought? TBH though the real problem with tOSU and other schools who play no one either as a matter of schedule or because circumstances caused said schedule to suck is that whenever they’re picked they automatically enter the CFP with a competitive advantage. It’s not fair to teams who have had to grind and deal with physical and emotional toll of a grueling schedule to have to play talented teams who’ve not had to go through a similar ordeal. Both bodies and minds wear down when you actually have to play to get in.

The TV deal money won't be payable until 2023-24.

People want to fire a coach now. This is 2020.

So people who can read and count on three fingers will realize that one does not depend on the other. It's possible to use different funds for different purposes, and UT actually has the financial acumen to do that.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Wonder how mad everyone will be when we win 35-3 and all the higher ups praise Pruitt and we keep him. Can’t. F’n. Wait.

Did you just say no but yes? Lol

 

[snowvols]

a friend of mine got a DM from a commit (not naming names) saying “heard Pruitt finna get released”

 

[GoBigOrangeVols]

Wouldn't hate Pat Narduzzi on the Hill.

We’ve had and still have the money even without prior tv money. However, the ‘but the buyout is 12 million’ excuse is shot all to pieces with a 15 mil per year windfall that wasn’t there prior. That is more to the point. We all know spending has been on anything but winning.

so what you’re saying is we will double down on the falsehood that we can’t afford it and claim that large organizations such as ours operate like personal finance when we all know they don’t.

Lol! I’m pretty sure Baileys Marietta team from last year would beat this 40 man Vandy team.

I'm sure OSU would be favored, but they really haven't beaten anyone except Indiana. Indiana's best win was vs 2-5 Penn St in OT. Indiana is the only team they played with more than 2 wins. They haven't really done anything to deserve a spot in the playoff. Its not really their fault, more the Big 10 conference's fault. They'll get in though.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

Haven't been following much, we still ranked?

Lol Nice to see you again Charger

 

[TrippieRedd]

Lol, no doubt.

So pathetic

 

[GoBigOrange86]

fify

 

[gordonr24]

If we make a change at HC, it has to be offensive driven. This isn’t the 90s anymore. Offense wins and the best offenses are miles ahead of the best defenses in today’s college football. If we had the ability to score 40 points on any given Saturday, we’d be contenders, even if our defense was subpar.

 

[Vols4us]

Yep. Go ask the biggest names for their interest. Peterson, Meyer, Stoops, Campbell, Etc. If they all say no, it is not a bad floor when you can get Freeze, Napier, or Chadwell. It’s so easy it’s frustrating.

Which is what USCe did. Then hired their first choice from the realistic list - a guy who had been there before, recruits well, was endorsed by Spurrier, and who has a sharp offensive mind/system to implement.

It's that easy.

If they have the money lined up for major facilities upgrades as LA stated, they have the money available to make the coaching changes that will pave the way for increased revenues to pay for it all many times over.
