  1. Affidavit says 2:11. Bunch of bars one block up close 11 minutes before that. It’s a Saturday night. The hell is the problem? Man, I feel like I’m not surly enough for surly anymore
  2. Hard disagree. The cop is there to protect pedestrians on a busy street at peak hours, not a football player that decided to get mega blazed driving between strip clubs
  3. They were referring to the Fasusi/Rogers/Haywood triumvirate (and apparently there was a guy named Dramodd Odoms that was a 5* OT and signed with SMU), but it’s always an interesting choice when the services chastise a staff with Sark/Flood’s history for their evaluations
  4. Could Burns get in the mix for the last starting spot? He started all six appearances at ASU last year before his injury. He threw as many as 118 pitches and 7.0 innings. Genuine question as I don’t have the baseball knowledge to say it’s a good idea lol
  5. My understanding of the reasoning for the return of bags is that they would avoid the new independent clearing house and fair market value requirements. The settlement basically sets up two pathways for payments to players: revenue sharing and NIL (which can come from the school or third parties). Revenue sharing is capped (~$20M) and can be doled out as a school sees fit. NIL is not capped, but all deals worth more than $600 dollars will have to go through an independent clearing house where they will be reviewed to ensure that they are fair market value for a valid business purpose. The clearing house will have the power to reject a deal that is pay-for-play. So, if Starting DT X’s NIL has a fair market value of $Y, then bags theoretically offer a competitive advantage if they are going to be greater than $Y because theoretically the only other option would be to add more and more NIL obligations for Starting DT X, and he only has so many hours he can spend signing autographs and copy/pasting tweets. Personally, I think it’s too early to know how the settlement will impact things. The clearing house thing seems like it will either work very well or terribly - probably terribly. Texas should be well-equipped to navigate the new landscape, whatever it may be.
  6. Are they comparing the player or the recruitment to Moore?
  7. If Nagy realized it was fucked up, why did Stone have to enter the portal to get it corrected? That seems like something that could be straightened out privately
  8. Here are his posts on OB from today. Don’t see anything about TJ but he seems to thinks he’s probably done for the year
  9. I also get the sense some of Schloss’s complaints were with the people themselves (e.g., putting newspapers up to avoid seeing the cheerleaders) That said, we need to fix the issue with empty seats behind home plate
  10. I have no idea what you’re talking about with the recruiting stuff. The only high schooler’s stats I’ve looked at in the last five years is Arch, which I hope is understandable. Maybe you’re confusing me with another Bevo-inspired handle. As to the baseball convo, there’s three parts: A) I think Farmer is actually good (.309 in SEC play with a hit in all but one game), B) Jonah has a small sample against some pretty poor pitching, and C) coaches generally opt for experience in the case of ties. That said, the things that have impressed me the most about Jonah so far are his eyes and discipline at the plate, even in his pinch hitting appearances when he was probably desperate to swing. He’s already in the top half of the lineup in that regard which is pretty crazy. That might be enough to win him the spot as his numbers come back to Earth. He should absolutely be ahead of Duplantier and Winfield, fwiw.
  11. Not to be a party pooper, but it’s probably the guy with 9 ABs that’s going back to the bench when Belyeu returns
  12. So we’ve qualified for the post season before Easter?
  13. Nothing in the fifth, but it’s ok. We just need Kimble and Borba to get us to the Farmer/Williams/Duplantier trio
  14. OTF was consistent in their reporting yesterday and this morning that we hadn’t offered. Guess that changed
  15. If you make that statement you need to name the 2-4 NIL earners that you’d cut to make it happen
