  • Surly Horns Burnt Ends NIL Program- How YOU can help Texas with the NIL right now!


    RGBIII

    Enough bitching, enough sitting on the sidelines, CDC isn't doing fucking dick but we can! Introducing Surly Horns Burnt Ends NIL Program. This is how we make a difference, if we can get enough interest and hit the numbers that we forecasted, that is a huge step towards getting at least one position group taken care of (possibly two pending interest and people actually putting their money where their mouths are) with the hopes that others will follow with other less appreciated position groups. Bijan, Card, even guys like Jamison and Overshown won't have issues getting paid when the NIL is fully rolled out (hopefully fucking soon, looking at you @closetojumping)or when CDC gets his head pulled out of his ass (Doubtful, fucking moron).

    Next Steps, I gauge interest through this article and see what the financials actually look like (You won't be charged dick till this shit actually gets rolled out), we get a liaison in the TE room to help facilitate scheduling, we get this bitch through compliance (Don't think this should be an issue but....), then we start to roll it out to the TEs! All the profit is going directly to the TEs, and the website will be handling the money (No Ketch bullshit). We will mail everyone's Cups and stickers and shit once things have been rolling. We will need some help designing a logo (paging @TreatyOak). This is a great opportunity for us to have some fun with the NIL, get some kids some cash legally and above board, help improve TE recruiting and keep talented TEs on the team and out of the portal. If you have any suggestions, questions or grievances shoot me and @immamac a DM. This is how we help!

    While we're at it can we throw some of those pet streaming cams in the dorm to check in on them? We could modify the ones that dispense treats to dispense bags

    Are we taking suggestions for slogans? 

    Burnt Ends - What Ends Here, Burns the World. 

    I don't know why we'd need to change anything personally. "Low and Slow" works perfectly fine for this group.

    Do we have an updated pledge matrix? Sorta like in one of those telethons?

     

    I am also curious how much of this format gets stolen by other Texas fan sites and across CFB. This will be funny as hell to see this morph into a funding drive war between texags and  fat ketch.

     

    From a practical business standpoint I wonder if this mechanism would be a net gain or loss from a funded subscriber concept? How many people decide that they can take their $10 a month to drop on Burnt End, knowing they can read all of the other websites content here, instead of paying a subscriber fee elsewhere…

    I like Logo 6

    Are you going to show all the options? 
     

    as for the PowerPoint, me fail math

    Here are all 6 that @TreatyOak made, he also made a bunch in different colors in case we cant use Burnt Orange but we will operate under the fact that we can until told otherwise. I also covered the NIL and SEC for the first one like people were asking. We will probably use all of them in one way or another.

    Originally I will probably order 2 sets of cups/stickers, one with Logo 1 and another with logo 3 and let people chose what cup/sticker they would like. Will definitely be doing a tailgate style flag with logo 1, probably tshirts and hats as well evntually

    I'm down for buying a few Surly t-shirts (tri-blends only).  Lets get this going.

     

    Id imagine we will start with the stuff that comes with the program (The cups and stickers) plus koozies to hand out at tailgates and shit then we can start rolling out shirts, hats and shit but all a matter of time!

    I like Logo 6 still. It would be perfect if you spelled FCB with the grill smoke. Or hid Bert in there somehow 

    I think one of the issues is Surly doesn’t have a logo. I mean it does, but nothing professional

    I just read the post and the tight end camp sounds really cool- if that actually happens I’m going to take down 12 spots for an additional $6000. We can figure out a clever way to sponsor content/posts on the board, or that’s helpful in some way to what you are trying to do here and that will be my scholarship for people posting here perhaps- as a pay it forward. Or maybe podcast participation or or feedback or something like that. @immamacand @RGBIII can run with it on making that helpful to their aims here. Let me know what the plan is for board participation if you can think of something and I will pay up for a spot monthly as a giveaway for contribution here that amuses me/the board in some way. 
    maybe we can have a ceremony or pod mention or something as a contest. Don’t know whatever y’all want. 

    i'm here to support wulaw horn, if he's in, so am i

    I thought logo #7 with a joint would have been slightly appropriate for the crowd here, but I guess we got old.  

    Speak for yourself. On the first part, we’re definitely old.

    You must have failed math. The actual result is "fucking 19.5 year old chicks".

    • I was bored and went through the coaching staffs for each of the remaining playoff teams.  Listed below are the coaches who seemed like possibilities to me (but I'm an idiot).  They all have some college coaching experience and in the case of one an extensive HS coaching background.  A couple of entries have pretty light resumes but have long NFL careers.

      Houston Texans:
      Jacques Cesaire DL coach - 5 years at Univ of San Diego as DL coach, 9 years as DE for San Diego Chargers
      Rod Wright Asst DL Coach

      Green Bay Packers:
      Jerry Montgomery DL coach -11 years in college at OU, Michigan, Wyoming.  Last 9 years in NFL


      Detroit Lions:
      John Scott Jr. DL Coach - First year in Detroit.  Previously coached at Penn St., South Carolina, and Arkansas
      Wayne Blair QC - Long time Florida HS head coach, spent last two years coaching DLine in Detroit.  Played at Tulane and CFL

      Buffalo Bills:
      Marcus West Asst D-Line - Prior to joining Bills in 2022 spent 14 years as college D-Line coach (Charlotte, Minn, Austin Peay)

      San Francisco 49ers:
      Darryl Tapp Asst D-Line - 12 year NFL veteran.  Coached D-Line at V-Tech for 2 seasons.  Joined 49ers in 2022.

    • I'm not doing well about it, at all. 

      That's because we had our championship window of opportunity, which is now closed. 

      Why? Because now we face another, more potent opponent. The Fightin' Aggies of Texas A&M University. 
      They have THE best traditions in all of college. Plus, they've already surpassed us in baseball and basketball. Don't believe me? Consider this recent post from TexasAgs: "We've already surpassed them in baseball and basketball." 


      What's more, they demonstrated an unquenchable commitment to success when they paid a coach $78 MILLION to leave. That's right. $78 million to a coach they had presented a future national championship trophy to stop coaching, and they did it mid-season without a replacement locked-in. While it seems like this is poor financial management by their athletic department, it shows a spirit of winning we could only dream about. 


      Now, they've brought in a coach who gets them. That's right. He EMBRACES their traditions. And he has a great nickname, The Elk, which pairs with The Station quite nicely. We don't even have an amazing nickname for our city. 

      +

      Finally, when you compare the two football programs, A&M comes out ahead. As many of their posters continually point out, they faced a much better Alabama team than we did AND ALMOST WON. Plus, they paid tribute to their near-win against the second-best team in the Big 12.  

      Now that they've moved on from many of their players from the best recruiting class of all time, and have had multiple highly ranked recruits opt out, they are ready to win even more championships with hardworking farm boys from small towns. 


      Thanks for indulging my meltdown. I'm skeered real good.
