OMG - SEC Shorts absolutely nails it (and Nico) for the NIL era

[Gandalf]

Sadly, we are the "star" of this one with the "passing" of Nico.



SEC Shorts is going - it must be close to football time!

EDIT - I see I am late to this - mods please merge.

Nothin' for nothin', I still laughed my ass off thru gritted teeth...

 

[LegionnaireOfTheMiserable]

Most of those do nothing for me, but this one was pretty good

 

[SNAFU]

Hit all points of what has changed and will change in CF.

 

[CornDontGrow]

Is it pure comedy that it actually was sponsored by renasant bank though?

 

[VOLdo Raine]

Yep, they made us the punchline in this one. Funny that no one seems to even slightly compare it the Carson Beck situation. (I can’t imagine Miami is in a better position than Georgia to win; is he getting paid that much more? He had use of a private jet for crying out loud!) I’m sure Georgia fans are getting rid of their Beck jerseys now regardless.

Great point. OU’s Mateer escaped criticism/scrutiny also.

"ROSTERFLEX". Love this one, even if Tennessee is the prime target of the joke. I've come to loathe the Portal, N.I.L., conference expansion, ad nauseum. Those guys nailed it with this knee-slapper.

The only thing that I can think of is he figured he'd make a little more money and put up better numbers in a weaker conference to improve his draft stock because Miami doesn't have near the talent that Georgia does.

The Beck & Mateer situations aren’t remotely close, IMO. Mateer announced in Dec he was transferring to OU while Beck announced just after UGA’s season was over in Jan. Nico waited until the end of Spring practice and it was the major story of CF at the time.

Pure gold!

 

[Boca Vol]

When he rips the number off his jersey after the int., then puts it back on crooked is exactly like the "Official Game" thread is on here.

Can't imagine Food City or Flying J on a Players Jersey. PLEASE NO!

I would like to say that this will never happen since the uniform rules are fairly strict with the NCAA (from what I understand NCAA even has final say on any alternate uniform), but as soon as the NBA and NFL start selling ads on jerseys, college football won't be far behind.

FWIW - I think it happens in the NBA first since the WNBA already sells space.

The college football gods better be very careful not to turn CFB fandom's passion into a pastime. This very funny clip simply illustrates how it could happen. I don't like the modern era of CFB.

 

[SpookyAction]

My parents bought me a Pittsburgh Steelers football uniform just like this @1978. Iron-on numbers and letters. They ordered it from the Sears Christmas Catalog.

The NBA has done it for a couple of years already. Same with MLB.

 

[BruisedOrange]

They're so on top of things in the SEC, I learn about news & rumors just from watching.

Me and my brothers had Denver Broncos jerseys from the same era from Sears...good times.

Yep. I had laid off the Rockets for a couple of years after Harden left. When they brought Ime in to coach i picked back up a little. Now that they've put together a decent roster and brought in Durant, I’ll be much more plugged in.

Yep. I became a Raiders fan in the late 70's as a young kid and back then, Raiders merch was practically nowhere to be found in the Chattanooga area! However Sears used to have a little store in Brainerd, outside the mall called Sears Surplus and for whatever reason, they stocked a small amount of Raiders gear. My mom would drive me over there on Saturdays just to see if anything new came in! Great memories!
