  1. An NIL contract with who? The players. Because I can't see a 5 star signing a contract that stops him from making millions.
  2. Kingsbury never really had all that much success as a head coach though. A couple of good seasons, but nothing that really made you think 'on the verge' or anything like that. How he got past that interview, no one will ever know. Riley however has actually consistently had double digit wins and grabbed some titles, as well as won a few genuinely big regular season games. I agree he flames out of the NFL eventually after the team(s) get tired of never winning any playoff games. But I can see him regularly bringing those teams to the playoffs and bouncing around a few jobs here and there before the league finally gets tired of his schtick and he ends up spending the rest of his career as an offensive coordinator.
  3. Just off by a touchdown for each team. Nice win Longhorns!
  4. She's half black and she embraces her heritage. That's not anti-black. Not everybody in this world fits into a pigeon hole racially.
  5. Yeah, it could happen like this even with Tier 3 being wrapped up in the main deal. The update is likewise as optimistic. We'll see (or, they'll see. We'll ofcourse be making SEC coin).
  6. No. That article is explaining the Big XII deal that was just signed. I'm assuming those post-season payout expectations are based on recent years' payouts, but I don't know.
  7. That article has been updated (perhaps in just the past hour): So Tier 3 is already included in the main deal. Still not a bad overall payout, though more realistically around 35-36 million when post season is included.
  8. ESPN has in the contract that they will match for every P5 team that joins - up to four. Fox does not have that in the contract, but have already agreed otherwise to also match for every P5 that joins up to two. Anybody else outside of P5 means they have to slice up the pie. I don't know if the Big XII can really attract 3 more PAC(9) teams without Fox matching. That is unless whatever media deal offers the PAC is facing are truly depressing. If the option comes up, I think the Big XII obviously has to bite the bullet on that one. You can stabilize the finances out later, or maybe even work some rearrangement on the current deal out like 'ok, you won't match the extra two? Fine, let us have our Tier 3 back'. Something like that I'd think would be workable for the short term.
  9. I know things are probably not finalized yet, but I'm sure I've heard from multiple sources that regular OU/OSU matchups will occur yearly in all sports except football.
  10. Nude Nuns with Big Guns. I'd forgotten about this one, but yeah, pretty messed up and kind of hilariously so.
  11. Assuming everything you say is absolutely 100% true, I still say that when any moment of truth comes, there will not be any courts involved, no sovereign immunity, no prosecutions, and no law suits. It will be a bunch of guys (ok fine, maybe one of them will be a gal) in a room hammering away at a deal that everybody can, and will, eventually live with. And that will be that.
  12. By who? OU and UT negotiated one year of their GoR into oblivion (and didn't even have to pay the full amount of the separate exit fee). I suppose we could have gone the sovereign immunity route, but for what? One year? What a waste of legal resources. No one else has been in a position where they'd need to seriously challenge a GoR. We may find out if it could really work. But I don't think we ever will. All of the lawyers will get together, charge all of their clients a small fortune, do some 'work' and their clients will each and all go their separate ways with the GoR, and other relevant contractual demands, carefully negotiated away.
  13. If non-fiction is also allowed, then Jodorowsky's Dune. The insane ideas that guy had for his 'adaptation', if you could even call it that, were beyond belief. And he had the nerve to criticise the 1984 David Lynch version. Atleast Lynch understood the story and emphasized the key points. No one would have understood the nonsense Jodorowsky was coming up with. But I must admit, it was an entertaining documentary.
