buddha Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 as soon as they are no longer affiliated with the university they will no longer be relevant. no one will care. its the ties to the university that drive the love. no one cares about the usfl. which is why theyre really walking a fine line right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, Day better beat Michigan next season, Chris Holtman better start winning some basketball games this season. Too late for Holtmann.

romad1 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Looks like Wink as DC Greg Scruggs as DL coach Brian Jean Mary as LB coach Stephen Adegoke as DB coach. Not bad if you had to replace all the defensive coaches in a hurry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should really get back into gaming as it would surely a better way to spend my free time instead of sitting around watching the news and surfing the internet. This is always the right answer for your mental health. However, being an alert citizen is also extremely necessary. As far as the game. I tend to get annoyed by the "miracle" that Notre Dame always gets every game they play against Michigan. There is always some insane fluke thing that happens. Even in 2013 that wasn't the case. We were killing them on the regular even in that Richrod/Hokish era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deleterious Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 The article says all 85 scholarship players on all 134 FBS teams will get the offer. $600 and a copy of the game. It also says they will negotiate different deals with a few of the bigger names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relevant for the sake of relevance. They were an afterthought until he came around and I think they just like having people actually watch and care for a change. I wouldn't be surprised if they tire of him though, especially if/when he continues losing and eventually leaves the program worse than he found it while deflecting blame. Hopefully the mainstream media will go away too when his schtick gets old and he isn't winning games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stroud, they want to go use their name and help sell cars, help a business, that's great," Meyer said. "But to have a 17-year-old demand money for a visit, to pay these players a lot of money to go visit a charity for 20 minutes and they write you a check for $50,000, that's cheating. That's not what this is all about. I'm very disappointed in where it went." That's cheating? OK, Urbz..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIL is a ridiculous system, the donors who are funding it are being had, and the Universities that are losing development funds to all their other priorities in the redirection of those donor dollars to Ephemeroptera like player salaries are ultimately acting against their own institutional interests..... and the Sun also rises in the East.

LOL - this should be bookmarked as a future 'most likely outcome'. What I really love is the juxtaposition within a single season of suspending the National Championship program's coach for getting advanced scouting from one guy buying single tickets for friends with iPhones because advanced scouting is so expensive that we have to outlaw it or we can't maintain a level playing field, and --Oh, by the way - remember you need to raise an 8 figure sum to pay your players next year or we will probably re-organize our conference without you.
