I'd be willing to bet (like somebody else already said) .. Fisher wont be able to manage all those personalities. shyts gonna blow up in their faces.

Their second loss of the year is going to be TransferPortalMania for real

There is something really nefarious they're running from beyond additional workouts

I mean a certain Lincoln coach was holding practices during the early days of the pandemic and outside of initial coverage, not a peep.

IIRC they also had some recruiting violations, they were hosting kids on secret OVs during COVID

shyt’s chess, not checkers

…this happens in business all the time. It just blows when it happens to your organization.

curious how dignified LR would be treated by OU if he had a losing season or two. Or if a bunch of 5*’s from clemson wanted to play for the new OU coach would they take the moral high ground? fukk no.

corporations or big time programs playing the boo hoo card is always complete hypocrisy.

Actually Vernables told guys that wanted to follow him to honor their commitment to Clemson.

Lane Kiffin lettin hammers bang
. Naming names

Mississippi coach Lane Kiffin on Tuesday lamented the lack of detailed rules regulating NIL payments to college athletes.

“It’s basically like dealing with different salary caps,” Kiffin said. “We now have a sport that has completely different salary caps and some of these schools are five- or 10 times more than everybody else of what they can pay these players. I know nobody uses those phrases but that is what it is. I joked the other day that I didn’t know if Texas A&M was going to incur a luxury tax in how much they paid for their signing class.”

I love to see peoples facial expression when he was saying all that

He was paying at LSU, lol. I know a OU player told me for a fact.

When he says "we" he's probably dealing in semantics. Like his staff didn't but other ppl did

I when first read that A&M lined up 25-30 million in NIL deal for their recruiting class a few weeks ago, I knew it was cap and message board ducktales

Not saying they don't use NIL money, but that amount was ridiculous for players who never stepped foot on campus. Almost 1 million per recruit

they got it, especially with gas prices being what they are, they really got it, and don’t they also have some tech money now @Lucky_Lefty ?? But they have it

There's not a single alumni/fanbase that can match A&M dollar for dollar. And its not even close. I believe the hell outta that 25-30 million number. Now, is it sustainable for an every year type deal? Probably not. But to jumpstart their NIL? Hell yea.

the funny thing is it’s been said the “money” told A&M they infact can’t sustain that level, so I’m guessing they have spent way more than that 30 set aside

We ain't gonna talk about this?

wasn’t he the whistleblower?? And at this point they in no man’s land, not sure when the ncaa is going to come knocking and how hard they will bring the hammer. They thought they had a chance to make noise in the south, given what they had, but with that sleeping giant in Compton waking up, that window is shut, so they riding this out with herm til the storm is over, so i imagine everyone is jumping ship if they can

I'd be willing to bet (like somebody else already said) .. Fisher wont be able to manage all those personalities. shyts gonna blow up in their faces.

i think he can, he managed that 2013 fsu team, the biggest issue is keeping all that talent, and making the moves to actually turn this into something, having talent alone can have you run through 85-90% of the competition, but balls in jimbos court to put up in the next 2-3 years if he can keep the talent together

There is something really nefarious they're running from beyond additional workouts

They are a lame duck program riding the storm out, the most they did was trying to get more practice in….apparently it didn’t help
Their qb has regressed, after a great start, they have got some guys drafted but, not numbers, they aren’t keeping talent in state, and they really bout to fall behind
