  • 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!

    and hit up @immamacs DMs

    I’d already told him I was good for it to let me know when and where he wanted it when we went live. Are we live and collecting money now or just taking about it?

    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.

    This is really amazing to see shape up. I am not surly 1% but definitely want to join. Only question for me is, is there a feeling that there will be multiple Surly position-group camps? If I had to choose, would rather support OL or DE. Frankly, the life expectancy of our TE's scares me to death so want to contribute to other groups as well.

    Is this something like there will be an SEC-ish gentleman's agreement that OB sponsors OL, Surly sponsors TE, HF (does it still exist) sponsors WR, etc.? Too early to tell?

    Too early on that front. For now we wanted TE cause most bang for your buck, smallest group equals most money to the players but as it expands I’m sure we will cover other positions and I’m sure the other 995ers will attempt to copy some of this shit cause it’s pure awesomeness

    Will our new defensive scheme have defensive “ends” or are we still calling them “Bucks” or “Jacks” or whatever while we pretend they are linebackers that never drop into cover?

    In for the monthly…

    Curious what the balance will be at by the end of the month… 

     

    Depends on how many nurses sign up.  We’ve seen the paystubs now so there’s no reason they don’t sign up for several $50 monthly payments.

    if this is successful long term, i  would love to see it expand to basketball and maybe baseball as well.  basketball would be difficult to do under this model as its becoming a positionless game and i'm not even sure you'd want to support guards rather than wings or bigs.  baseball it could be done where you go with outfielders or infielders or pitchers.

    That’s the plan as this grows and expands. Honestly if I have a pick for the next one would be something like volleyball

    Can we get an update as to where we are on participation goals for Burnt Ends.  Also, if someone is connected and organized enough I’d love to see this for my favorite position group the D Line or just the tackles.  LOS is where it’s at!

    This is good stuff. I’m in.

     

    I realize this all far down the road, but any reason we didn’t pick the DB group for this? Too many numbers there? Seems that could do wonders for our current recruting and it’s Texas’s best all time position group. 

    That’s the thing, though. Most of Surly can’t. 

    Yeah, count me out on the running shit...

    This deal is legit.  Just reached out to Cade Brewer through my goddaughter (no pics assholes) and he is aware of it though he has not been contacted directly.

    So stop whining about shit and contribute for the greater good.

    Looking forward to the Surly sponsored Volleyball calendar next year.

    Who the fuck is Nathan Hatter? Walk on?

    1. I'm in. Great job putting this together.

    2. Please feel free to delete the quoted post if these guys will be able to see this thread

    3. What were y'alls thoughts on including/excluding walk-ons? Just saw we're getting another one from LSU (not sure if WR or TE). Including them obviously reduces the payout for the scholly guys which also reduces the recruiting impact a bit.

    4. Feel free to delete this post too, back to #2

    Goal is to cover walk ons as well. We want to use this as a selling point on someone going to like Iowa state n scholly vs a walk on here. The numbers will fluctuate but we should more than guarantee 10k+ for each still especially as this gains steam

    • 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.
