  1. https://surlyx.com/clarencehilljr/status/1886107969600831681?t=9ZZMZLWWXCCiy-MneF2sNA&s=19 Sorry, tweet above not embedding for whatever reason. They expect Choice to get a raise at Texas
  2. That hope implies that York can actually reach Arch's ear hole while he's standing straight up.
  3. Well shit. When I live in Pensacola, we're just starting our program. First year in Cali, and it's going back. I've still got a house in Pensacola and a ton of friends in Gulf Shores... Maybe I'll decide to be back in the area that weekend, we'll see. There's always next year!
  4. We're going to need you to do this more often.
  5. That's how almost all professional athletes are treated. In American professional sports, at least there's a CBA so that players get some input into how they are treated. But they can be traded, cut, or sold as commodities. Hell, in baseball, you can trade a player for "cash considerations"... In other words, you can straight up sell him to another team. In global soccer, they will put release prices into the terms of the contract... Essentially, pay us X price to dissolve the contract so you can sign them. Players are literally talked about being transferred, bought, and sold. In professional sports, if you are under contract with a team, you can ask to be traded, but it doesn't give other teams permission to contact you. That's tampering and there are consequences to that (fines/draft picks/etc). I think this Wisconsin situation is similar...I don't think it'll affect NIL (true third-party NIL such as commercial endorsements and collectives) at all. After all, Wisconsin's complaint barely mentions their collective; they are more worried about the contract signed with the school for AD revenue sharing. I think this situation could hasten the professionalization of NCAA sports and possibly lead to some sort of CBA between college athletes and the NCAA (or some other NCAA-like overseeing entity). However, just like professional athletes, no CBA can place any limits on what an athlete can make utilizing their name, image, and likeness for endorsements. No CBA can limit how much State Farm pays Patrick Mahomes, how much Dr. Pepper pays Quinn Ewers, or how much a group of people pays the Texas Longhorns Tight Ends to make an appearance at a group ticketed event.
  6. Theoretically, you have to be on the transfer portal in order to be contacted and recruited. On the surface, NCAA is saying you can withdraw from classes at your current school, but if you're not in the portal then you'll have to find a new school the old fashioned way, without being contacted by coaches, without visits, you'll have to apply as a transfer, be accepted by your chosen university as a transfer, then contact the coaches once you've been accepted. Of course, we all know it doesn't work like that, but on the surface, NCAA knows they wouldn't be able to impose any restrictions on the above process.
  7. So... The exact same thing that happened then?
  8. You forgot Helobius. This is clearly his hand-iwork.
  9. He somewhat pays attention at the very least. He tweeted this after the Arizona State game
  10. I remember "Jimbo will resign and agree to a much lower buyout because he's such a good guy and just loves A&M so much" 😂
  11. Did he have a COVID year to use?
  12. I don't understand this board's fascination with comparing Quinn to "an NFL QB" when there are 32 different QBs all with varying levels of accuracy. At least 10 starting NFL QBs right now don't do the things you are talking about. And they are starting in the NFL. Hell, #1 pick / Heisman trophy winner Caleb Williams, I've seen him miss the fade throws out of bounds again and again and again this year, not "hit (WR) without him having to leave his feet". Like most rookie QBs he has really bad plays and some outstanding plays. Now, yes, GOOD NFL QBs make those throws, but, spoiler alert, veteran QBs are generally better than younger QBs. Quinn is a college Junior/Senior and a lot of people on this board expect him to have the consistency of a 7 year NFL veteran. Next year, Quinn will be a rookie NFL QB and there is a huge difference between rookie QBs and even a 5 year veteran. Heck, just look at Sam Darnold now compared to when he was a rookie. He definitely had some bad plays, but picking to criticize a difficult completion to Golden down the sideline and a pass that hit our most expensive WR in the hands is WILD to me.
  13. "Awful" I remember awful throws...I remember Casey Thompson throwing it 5 yards out of bounds when Worthy was wide open for a touchdown. Hitting the receiver in both hands is not an "awful" throw.
  14. I might be able to make it up to Manhattan Beach in March and then Huntington Beach if we are able to make it to Nationals
  15. That's kind of what I'm getting at. That place is so shitty and he prefers UT so much that it doesn't matter if they were ranked #1, he was going to leave. Ok sure maybe, but has that ever actually happened? Or is UT baseball the only one with dicks big enough to poach the coach from the #1 team?
  16. I meant literally same level, like D1 to D1, not D2 to D1 or D1 to Pros
  17. Has there ever been an example of a coach leaving the preseason #1 team to take another job at the same level?
  18. I didn't actually go to the article.... That makes much more sense.
  19. Dillingham is exactly one month younger than me. According to this timeline, he was the QB coach for his high school when he was a high school senior ('07-08).
  20. Here's the entire play on skycam 20250103_182012.mp4
