    surly literally hosts pics.  use the "drag files here to attach or choose files..." line below your post.  you can do this on mobile as well. 

    also, it serves them up much faster than other sites because they generally don't use true CDN and to surly it's just fulfilling another request from the same server. 

    I looked at the CT6 Blackwing when I was deciding on the E63s Wagon. What a sick engine and it's extinct for all we know. Those Cadillacs are nice af, but the V is a very different car than the platinum (I've driven both), it's about a lot more than just the engine as the V really is a track focused variant. TBH I preferred the non V as it's a way way better daily experience.

    https://www.motortrend.com/news/cadillac-ct6-v8-ct6v-engine-option/ for reference on what I'm talking about

    I know the CT5 is different, but same general idea. I think @Moby Ric has a sick new whip.

    Ha dude the money I tried to put together for the NIL stuff is like 1/10th of what Ive done over the years. They didnt want to put in, because they werent convinced this stuff was actually safe to do. With what Plonsky is doing right now, how can anyone blame them? I did my best to convince them it was, because I strongly prefer yalls model. That was the whole point of meeting with yall. The two guys I specifically referenced that night ended up putting in elsewhere, and they were young guys that had never been involved before. Plonsky would love to go after these guys, but fortunately their group is completely buttoned up. You can call it whatever pejorative you want, but I helped them find a place they were comfortable putting their money. (insert the prove it or youre full of shit, like thats even possible). Again, why would yall even support Plonsky going after people that are actively making us better? 

    I mean, do you honestly believe that the NIL is the only recruiting lever we are pulling? How long have you been following this shit? And you're ok with Plonsky unnecessarily trying to put a stop to it, even though everyone is being plenty careful? I dont get it. Look at who we are recruiting and who we have hired to recruit them. Look at where they came from and look at the offers these highly recruited kids are entertaining. You think we would even be able to get them to visit if above the board NIL stuff was all we were offering? Why would anyone, let alone fans as big as yall, want to upset that apple cart when its obvious our staff is at least playing the game enough to even have them available to entertain an NIL deal? 

    So 800k max over 3 coaching regimes compared to well into the 7 and low 8 figures in one year and we are the clowns? Sit down and shut up.

    Lol dude your own shit would get wrapped up in this mess if your queen cunt has the information you clearly want her to have. Are you really simple jack enough to think it was just the pancake factory that landed this o line class? That all of the communication and collaboration doesn’t indicate a clear inducement? Even if you came out clean on the other side your association with the investigation and resulting sanctions would get associated by our fan base anyways. The ignorance is astounding. Literally all I’m saying is cut out the bullshit about being the only legitimate and rightful source of UT athletic support, I’ve been involved off and on for nearly a decade despite what you want to say. I helped Charlie, Herman, and now Sark. Y’all jump in with the NIL and start spouting off about a bunch of shit you clearly don’t understand. It’s just not necessary.

    You know less than nothing. I payed out well into the 5 figures in between Christmas and New Years while everyone from compliance was on PTO and yet they got back to me in the dead of night during a holiday to make some big shit happen. 
     

    You and your band of broke dick irrelevant jock sniffers don’t have shit on what I’m working on and involved in.

    Our own athletic department is hampering our ability to compete on an equal basis with our competitors. Plonsky (and many are now suspecting CDC) are intentionally standing in the way. I dont give a fuck what kind of NIL deal people are working on, the left hand shouldnt be fucking with the right. I tell everyone who bitches about the program to join Burnt Ends or use Horns With Heart. But they need to understand they are one of many vital organs necessary to make this thing work. If they are going to come in here and defend Plonsky's bullshit, they should be called out. Perhaps its a good idea for @immamac to just delete my posts in here, because like I said earlier, Im getting drawn offsides. Its just insanely frustrating given how hard it has become to get people involved, because they think our program doesnt have its shit together. Well they're currently being proven correct once again, and its defeating as fuck. 

     

    You like to come talk shit on message boards like you are connected to anything worthwhile. You have done jack shit for NIL and the AD and Compliance aren't actively blocking shit from happening. They are extremely helpful and valuable as a resource to accelerate things.

    Maybe you and your band of fucking morons who are trying to be detrimental to the program should just take your money and shove it up your collective asses and let the big boys who actually know what the fuck is up handle the business.

    I think the bigger point is we need to fire Plonsky for being a failed AD and she has entirely too much political moose within the AD. 

    Or, here’s a thought. Win without cheating. It’s not harder to be legit with respect to NIL, we don’t have to cheat to get or keep players. You can’t tamper with your own players, we can counter as we have. Others tampering with players can’t make it too obvious and the player is required to go into the transfer portal which allows us to engage in a completely compliant way. 
    Cheating with recruits is going to be stupid with the new xfer portal dynamics and you better believe that multi year “you have to play here” deals will get the hammer vs the here’s money to sign here which is what we’ve been seeing.

    I agree with this yet don’t understand why anyone would want to withhold NIL info if things are above board.   Like the stupidity of aggy who think collectives trumpeting their deals are the dumb ones, meanwhile they are the real brain trust with their secret, innovative deals.   It’s astounding most of them fail to reconcile the illegality of enticing recruits while having a mercenary class sign up for super secret unpublished NIL deals.

    Isnt it the case that a student seeking financial aid must show a tax return or parents return if a dependent?   I admittedly know nothing about how the athletic scholarships are structured but it seems like there has to be a way of checking income from NIL deals.   Of course an athlete could simply pay their own way and school compliance departments are not created equal, so that’s likely a dead end.
     

    I completely agree that NIL deals need to be published, thats probably one of the most important steps toward figuring this out.  

     

    I have a hard time understanding the legitimacy of NIL deals where the player in question doesn’t use their name image or likeness for the quid pro quo. I’m sure there are private banquets or appearances, but outside of that and autographs it’s difficult to understand what you could possibly pay 18-22 year olds to do that wouldn’t be public. 
     

    I mean look at bijan, all his stuff has been VERY public and I don’t think that’s an accident.

    Was told our compliance department will fully comply with the NCAA regarding NIL deals they deem to be impermissible. They are basically acting like the NCAAs local enforcement wing, and Plonsky is saying she has no problem accepting sanctions from the NCAA. Doesn’t sound like there’s anything to worry about on our end though.

    Well I spoke with compliance on the phone 3 times in the last week directly. This shit has all been run right.

    This guy gets it. Basically to make the cook last as long as possible as an excuse to continue drinking.

    for fuck's sake, man.

    does putin remain in power after losing this war and surrendering (is that word ok? if not, please don't obsess over it and stay focused on the question) crimea and other consonant-heavy areas which i can't spell? 

    Yes is the short answer. The Russian people are part of the problem. 

  12. Just now, DefinitelyNotHollywoodColt said:

    russia retreating and giving back the land they have occupied would be the death of putin, no? i can't see how he could survive that type of defeat on the home front... 

    Russia isn't retreating they are being defeated. They aren't giving back anything, they are having it forcefully taken away. 

    Russians have suffered an incredible amount of loss at a ratio of nearly 9:1 compared to Ukraine. They have been utterly incapable of anything except terrorism from a military perspective and are being driven back by force, not by strategic retreat.
