Recruiting Forum Football Talk V

For context, Buc-ees is a Texas icon.

It’s a gas station, truck stop, Walmart, souvenir shop, renaissance festival, gathering place all rolled into 1. You can get local chili, sausages, dried meats, tacos, bbq, rubs, Christmas ornaments, beach gear, turkey legs, bags of ice. It’s like the DMZ, where everyone everywhere takes a pit stop and the fighting stops. Heck even realists and optimists can let the debate over coffee without keyboard wars.

These suckers are yuge. And in the middle of nowhere. The one in New Braunfels has 120 fueling stations, 1,000 parking spots, 80+ toilets, 80+ soda dispensers, 30 cash registers.. Katy location has a 225 foot long car wash station. Even with all these humans around after loading up on aforementioned fluids and tacos during their road-trips, the restrooms are renowned to be immaculate.

It is good money, but man you will have to earn it.

What kind of "rubs?" Asking for a friend.

Sometimes they earmark funds; sometimes they contribute where the university asks them to contribute. BMDs often contribute to both academic and athletic facilities. Always have.

Not what I'm talking about. Why aren't they more involved with Spyre and our NIL? We're in a new era of college football. NIL will be a HUGE factor in success. We need our big boosters involved in spearheading it, yet they seem reluctant.

 

[BigOrange15]

UT has a lot of buckets and has asked donors and boosters to fund many things-- facilities, academics and endowments. You can only tap people for so much. NIL is a way fans can help, and DW has set up other fan initiatives, as well.

Spyre or the school or both really need to do a better job of explaining to the average, lay-fan what Spyre is and does. People either have never heard of it or don't know what it actually is.

No tugs involved.

This!!!

 

[InVOLuntary]

I like you @InVOLuntary… but don’t be hating on my sport!!! Let’s hate on a real boring sport, baseball…

AH, I just give ya'll a hard time. People like what they like. I personally don't care for any sport where the average score is 1-0 (or recently 0-0 ) Not big fan of baseball either, unless it's Tony V's baseball. Same for hockey.

 

[drvenner]

Yeah, I don’t remember anything about this previously. Changes everything with how I feel about the hire. Adults doing what they want with other adults is one thing. An adult doing something to high school kids is a completely different thing.

Definitely. While soliciting services with resources provided to him by his employer is not ideal, if it were just that, I would not have nearly as big a problem with him.

 

[Glitch]

I've never personally asked am 8th grader to change her shirt in front of me.

Most men haven't, because that is disgusting. I have a level of expertise in this matter as I have two daughters that have been eighth graders in the past and one that presently is an eighth grader. If any of them ever came home and told me that story about one of their teachers, that teacher had better hope the police arrest him first before I get there.

 

[drvenner]

The end user is getting smacked upside the head, too. Schools aren't just absorbing those costs; they're passing some of them along to fans. And asking donors for more and more and more.

Not disagreeing about the lack of parity... but what happens when fans and donors start complaining?

Cut the coaches' salaries?

 

[butchna]

Hyatt definitely needs to go pro. His stock will never be higher.

And it can definitely go lower.

 

[UTvol1fn]

Is USA winning today?

doubtful

 

[Orange_Crush]

Wonder if they can call unsportsmanlike conduct against what you do to your own player?

 

[Glitch]

It's Gavin Glitch's doing!

 

[VolInDayton]

Damn. Really liked that guy

Hopefully Shane Beamer gives him a call.

 

[Glitch]

Bru announced he was coming back !! SIAP

Sounds like a Tillman level smoke screen. We will see.

 

[Glocker_Alum_2005]

Damn. Really liked that guy

Rumours interested in Cadillac

 

[Glitch]

Literally all the other positions

 

[gordonr24]

Is there a single team in college hoops that has a tougher non conference schedule than Tennessee? We will be battle tested well before conference play

Heisman straw poll: Caleb Williams dazzles, leaving his competition in battle for second




and this straw poll is built from people that actually watch the sport. The true Heisman voters (all 870 media members) won't have a clue and won't give Hendon the time of day.
