  1. I took it as a warning shot to wait a few months before we rebudget all that NIL money.
  2. JD Booty was between Leinart and Sanchez for 2006 and part of 2007
  3. Carson Palmer to Matt Leinart wasn't a bad stretch for USC.
  4. I'm old enough to remember when aggy hired Sherrill from pitt in the early 80s. It was for something like 250k per year which basically doubled everyone else and was a huge deal in the media at the time. Now they've done the same thing with buyouts and very likely the next coach, who is not gonna take under 10mm if he's smart enough to spot the sucker.
  5. From the article- "Despite the fact roughly half of coaches wind up getting fired eventually, nobody ever thinks their coach will be one of them, so nobody stops to consider whether committing so much money to one person is a financially prudent move" Gee, half end in failure but everyone is too in love to worry about that. There's a thread about this somewhere...
  6. Belichick 50-1. 🤣 l will take the other side of that bet for a nice 2% guaranteed return over a month or 2.
  7. Agree. But what about aggy?
  8. Wait, is using "in spades" racist? It's a bridge term (the card kind not the one you sleep under).
  9. I want to fuck them up like we should have done in October
  10. More our peers than big 12, certainly. I read peers as "equals" regarding national influence but if you mean kinda sorta in the same neighborhood and they really care about football, then ok. I was thinking bama, OU, Georgia, fla. Your point remains though that Texas is not going to have to be one of 2 bellcows carrying a bunch of slap dicks on our back.
  11. Not sure I agree with your detective work there.
  12. If this actually happens I'm going to also need some powerball numbers from you. I'll put half of winnings into Texas NIL, I promise.
  13. This. Same thing with professions. Like roughly 75% of this board I'm a lawyer and growing up I assumed lawyers were brilliant people who were never wrong. Fast forward to law school and I realized it's just a bunch of idiots that couldn't find a decent job upon graduating from undergrad.
  14. Someday someone is going to create one of more websites that will connect older wealthy men and women seeking older men with money. That's an arrangement many are seeking...
  15. That's a shame. Maybe the big 12 can advance them some of the 2024 TV money?
  16. Watched Beckham doc and as an American non soccer fan, I had no idea that he was hated by pretty much the whole country after getting booted out of the world cup final. I'm trying to think of anything in America even remotely close to the vitriol over something that purely happened on the playing field (ie not sandusky stuff) and am coming up blank. Take Gideon in 2008 and multiply it by 100. Tldr-limeys really, really care about soccer and make the most ardent college football fans appear sane.
  17. Germany once had the world's best wine, cheeses and bread. It was only for the early 1940s, and really just far western part of Germany, but still.
  18. There's another one of those big ass blimp hangers near Tillamook, OR. Or at least there was 20 years ago when I was there.
  19. Colonel Stalion, did you order the sign stealing? Son, we live in a world that has buckeye receivers, and those receivers have to be guarded by men with signs. Who's gonna do it? You? You, 89horn? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Purdue, and you curse the wolverines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that Ohio states elimination from the playoffs, while tragic, probably saved wins; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves wins.
  20. I appreciate the self deprecation, but 3 still seems high.
  21. Assaulting the CFO? Was it an intense discussion on depreciation that just got out of hand? There's got to be some backstory to this.
  22. Who has Thanksgiving in December? Is this a farmer thing?
