Good point, but billionaires typically have more than just one billion dollars. And it’s not like their fortunes are just sitting stagnant. They continue to grow their wealth, whether it be from their business ventures, investments, or simply from accruing interest. Unless they are paying tens of millions of dollars in NIL each year, they aren’t…[Read more]

The only thing I’ve heard is that the coaches have placed a value on position groups, and the NIL people basically stick to what the coaches are saying we should spend for those position groups based on needs. I’m guessing they make exceptions for higher level players if/when they can. But, I’m not an insider so what do I know?

Since the Davies suspension, BYU has made a concerted effort to handle honor code violations in private unless the violation is made public through some other means. I have heard that part of this shift in honor code enforcement has resulted in lighter consequences for athletes. In other words, they sweep what they can under the rug.

Wisconsin is scheduled to play @ Rice-Eccles in 2033. The Nevada game looks like it is a one game agreement; I don’t see any other future games scheduled between Utah and Nevada.

If the accused is exonerated, then yeah, I could see naming the accuser. But to have to have your name attached to the accusation as the victim, when you have done nothing wrong, that would be terrible and prevent a lot of legitimate victims from coming forward.

I won’t be surprised if we learn it is set up by a BYU fan and they are playing the long game to eventually post some awful stuff in an attempt to make Utah look bad.

Admonishes someone for name calling, immediately resorts to name calling. 🙄🤪🤣

And the irony of accusing Trump of lining his own pockets after what Biden and his family have done. (Chef’s kiss)

I’m not sure his ego would allow him to play in the CFL.

So Sanders will find himself in the CFL or Alford will make his way to the NFL?

Focusing on LDS athletes is part of what re-built Utah football from the dumpster fire it had become in the 70s and 80s. Turning our back on those recruits will send us right back to the bottom.

The padlock and key make me think they are locked in, as in they aren’t going anywhere.

Simple fixes:

1. Portal only opens once per year.

2. Reinstitute the rule requiring athletes to sit out a year every time they transfer, or at the very least for each transfer after their first transfer.

3. In order to be eligible at a new school, athletes must be on track to graduate within 5 years from their high school graduation date at…[Read more]

I’m hoping nobody picks him up and he becomes the cautionary tale for all of these greedy kids looking to “get theirs” rather than honor their commitments.

Your skepticism is warranted, but for me, the circumstances of this OC hire are different than the rest which gives me hope the results will follow.

It looks too similar to Houston’s logo, as well as other schools like Indiana and Oklahoma. The Drum and Feather has some similarities to the Washington Redskins logo but it is unique in the college game, looks way cleaner than the interlocking U’s, and with the Redskins name change it is now totally unique.

I know I’m just one fan, but I avoid…[Read more]

These look great. Can we please get away from the interlocking U’s logo altogether?

Big Rick was officially announced by USC and even had an introductory press conference, if I recall correctly. So if that is your standard, even an official announcement from the school won’t be good enough.

No. The amount of guys transferring out of the program every year was a HUGE problem. He was losing 25-50% of his rosters just to transfers, and that was before the transfer portal became a thing.

Did they accidentally copy/paste last year’s prediction?

If people would actually look into the stories the media tells about Trump and his allies, they would realize just how much the media lies to us.
