How did I miss that bishop was all sec?

I don’t make the rules . It’s an entertainment product . Yes people would care and watch more if Vandy, South Carolina or Iowa went deep into the CFP bc it means they would’ve done what Indiana is doing, beating Oregon, Ohio State and Alabama. Texas Texas Tech is beating BYU and TCU and getting thumped by Oregon.

Vols and Oregon got thumped by OSU last year. Means nothing.

Sure looks like they’re gearing up to field teams that can eventually do the thumping.

Just about **** myself lol

LFG though, can’t wait to see what Bishop does this year

 

[orangemadam]

How do you know we can’t? None of us knows what goes on in these negotiations.

Other programs are pulling in the big names, that's how it is fairly easy to deduce this. Why
would Ross leave a program that he is familiar with if he is offered the same money? Jakobi Thomas sound familiar?

I thought Bishop was transferring for a sec

Oh wow, Mr. Sage Wisdom of Life is here. We’re saved.

I can’t save you from being dramatic online. Only you can!

Listening to Brian Rice and Ainge this morning. Brian is pretty up on this stuff. Evidently Washington runs all NIL through their AD so they own both his revenue sharing and NIL rights. He can't sign either with a new school unless Washington let's him out. He said WA fully intends to enforce his contract. He said they may let him buy his way out of it.

People watch Tennessee and Oregon. People don’t care about TT or casually watch them.

You know there is a middle right?

We’re close to the middle. Yall act like teams are going and spending hundreds of millions of dollars on football rosters, someone literally compared it to pro baseball. This board is so dramatic. TTU hasn’t even signed a top 10 class, Indiana hasn’t signed a top 20. Nothing is stopping teams from targeting experienced transfers over recruits. Hell Indiana’s transfer class wasn’t even top 20 and signed only 3 4*’s

 

[OrangenSC]

It's even the schools spending a lot

My guess is greedy agents are getting in their ear, messing with mind about all the money they should be making, never pointing out the down side.

When they start winning vs the “best” teams, people will watch

Buyout. Interesting.

Not sure the amount is the biggest issue but rather an annual wholesale free agency.

They kept losing in court all the time. That's why.

Which is why the only solution is congressional action. I saw Saban talk about this and he point blank stated that without congressional action anything the powers to be came up would be defeated in court. I know we hate him but he has a pretty good understanding of the issues in college football.

Welp another one down

Nightmare week, to this point. Absolute nightmare.

Not shocking in today's game, but definitely not shocking it is happening at the U

NCAA caused it by trying to run it like a totalitarian state for so long

The two obvious problems with Leavitt is the high cost and the fact that he's probably not going to be cleared for practice until fall camp. At this point, it certainly feels like Joey getting cleared for another season and coming back would be ideal. He's going to still throw more picks than we're used to, but I don't see how he isn't better after a full offseason at UT.

Now watch us sign Leavitt for $3 or $4 million, him sit out Spring, GMac or Faizon have an incredible Spring where they take the reigns, and then Leavitt sit out the season.

Staring 6-6 right in the face.

If they pay him that much he won’t sit regardless of how well the others do.
