Be it PE or regular greed, the intent is the same. Take a brand that can generate revenue/dividends forever and pull ALL that back to a 5-8 year run. Leave the husk along the road. Move on to the next.
It’s embarrassing watching this transpire. You don’t under any circumstances, take money from these people. Once again this conference shows how broke most of these schools are. They won’t be the last to take an offer from these trash human beings in the Big XII.

Yes it is. Unintended consequences and whatnot from NIL.

I wonder if this will work like all PE. Invest, bleed dry, dump the remains in a ditch.Yes, yes it will. So incredibly dumb and short-sighted to take money from these ghouls.

Saw a movie tonight that’s ostensibly a Christmas movie, but the way the story was put together was pretty cool. It’s called Klaus and Norm McDonald voices one of the characters. I had never seen it before, but Regal was running it tonight. Everyone there seemed to enjoy it.

So he is better than the ou kicker? Not looking up kicker side by side stats but he too is good.Matsuzawa did not miss a single kick all year until the 3rd quarter of the last regular season game. He’s the best kicker in college football. That he pulled this off just six years after first deciding to play the sport makes the accomplishment even more remarkable.

I saw that Matsuzawa is a finalist for the Lou Groza. That one has to be the easiest one to predict I would think. No way the Tokyo Toe doesn’t win that award.

Why did Sam Leavitt decide to leave ASU? Do you have any intel?
Did ASU decide not to compete with Auburn or whoever is vying for his services?
I do not. You could tell he had a foot out the door for a good while. I don’t blame him for taking more money elsewhere, but any school that wants to pay him should be wary of his inability to stay healthy. Best QB in the Big XII this year when he played, but his line was shoddy at best and he still needs to grow as a leader. All players at his position need to at 20 years old though. You’ve seen firsthand how this has gone for Arch at times in finding his footing and voice.
Dillingham was courteous to him and has nothing bad to say. He’ll have to find a veteran QB now in the portal or he’s going with someone that has never started at the college level next year. Either way I trust him to have a QB prepared to be successful. He gets along with his players really well and they genuinely like playing for him.

Go Navy!
Such a cool game and tradition. So many young men who play in this game will go on to be leaders in the military. I hope Army gives ‘em hell and that this matchup is a classic, but all Navy all the way.

There’s really no point in playing these non-playoff bowl games anymore. Neither team will be fielding anywhere near the same rosters that they did during the regular season.
Some of the bowl games are meaningful to the teams playing in them. Hawai’i is playing in the Hawai’i Bowl. That’s a game featuring two Hawaiian QB’s facing off and two former Rainbow Warrior teammates coaching against each other with Nick Rolovich in the interim role for Cal. He also coached the Rainbow Warriors as well before he went off to Wazzu. That will be a pretty fun game and people out here are excited about seeing it.

There are probably 5 programs in the country that are satisfied with the status of college football in general. And one of those is Tech.
i the last couple of years they’ve subtracted Texas and OU and added Cody Campbell. No reason they can’t win the conference every damn year. Maybe TCU can compete? But, they will win it and go to the playoffs because as the OP points out, the Big 12 is fucking awful.
We don’t have a big money donor like Tech has, but ASU should never finish worse than 2nd or 3rd each season in this conference if our QB, whoever that is each season, stays healthy. We’re the only school in the entire conference located in an area people actually want to live in. Overall the conference is just a mess though when you have one school being bankrolled to relevance with 12 or 13 schools that will never be able to compete financially. I’m glad ASU has the best coach in the conference, by far, but he’ll still need some financial backing to make it work every season.

Alexi Lalas deserves to get hit by a bus load of Mexican migrants and they all deserve to whack him upside the head with a shovel. He's as worthless a human being as Pulisic. Screw American soccer and the idiots who are representing it.

Maybe we should come up with a SurlyHorn's Dr. Drunkenstein Memorial Peace Prize for the Bestest non-Texan and Texans People. It includes a wreath and we offer it to the biggest assholes we can find. @futureman can award it.
Ted Cruz gets the first one.

If you haven’t partaken of the “bus tub buffet,” are you even a dude who waited tables?
That was a no-brainer back in the day.I never have done it, but what I have done is this. I have always been unfailingly nice to the kitchen staff. My mom ran the high school cafeteria and snack bar in my hometown for 25 years so I will go out of my way to be polite to kitchen staff and never yell at them. What this has meant is they enjoy giving me food all the time for being the person not blaming them for things going wrong. One place I worked in NYC would give me stuff every single day. @BearSchlong visited me there once by Central Park. They’d give me pancakes the size of a plate that were an inch thick. It was usually 4-5 of them a day, but I’d take them just because I didn’t want to seem rude and say no.

So post all the shit…
Naming your stadium after that guy because he won you a bunch of games really drives home how little it means to that town what he did at Baylor.
Celina ISD is being sued by at least 17 different victims of Caleb Elliott. I am sure there is more.
No shame at all from either town. One celebrates a rape enabler while the other covered up stuff going on for a good long while because it’s the coach’s son.

BYU did not belong in the top 20 going into this game, much less 11th. Get out scored 63-14 by Tech should be enough to realize just how down the Big XII was this season. Tech was head and shoulders above the rest of the league, especially after Leavitt shut it down for the year.

is he back on the sideline or still on leave?
I believe that he is still on leave. He should’ve been fired, but that’s almost never how it works when you’re the head high school football coach in Texas that wins a lot.

This right here about Celina’s head coach is so infuriating. Meanwhile your son is torturing junior high athletes. No way he didn’t know something was amiss there.
QuoteMeet Coach Elliott
Coach Bill Elliott is a cornerstone of Celina ISD athletics, serving as both Athletic Director and Head Football Coach at Celina High School. With over three decades of dedication to the Bobcats, he has been instrumental in shaping the school's athletic excellence and fostering a culture of integrity and perseverance.
A 1986 graduate of Pilot Point High School, Elliott played under legendary coaches G.A. Moore Jr. and Butch Ford. He continued his football journey at Texas Christian University, graduating in 1990 after four years as a Horned Frog. In 1993, he joined the Celina coaching staff, and by 2012, he ascended to the role of head coach. Under his leadership, the Bobcats have consistently been contenders, culminating in a perfect 16-0 season and a 4A Division I state championship in 2024 .
Elliott's commitment to developing young men extends beyond the football field. He emphasizes core values such as integrity, excellence, empathy, and grit, guiding his players to become responsible and respectful individuals . This holistic approach to coaching has impacted thousands of student-athletes throughout his tenure.
In recognition of his outstanding contributions, Coach Elliott was honored with the G.A. Moore Coach of the Year award in 2025 . His enduring legacy at Celina High School is marked by a steadfast commitment to excellence, both on and off the field.

First off screw both of these schools. One names their stadium after a coach who presided over a team where he knowingly turned a blind eye towards his players raping students. The other has a head coach that assigned his son to the junior high where he engaged in being a pedophile and apparently molested junior high boys.
@Ghost of LL needs to either be there in-person in the pedo bear suit or get it to someone that will show up and take pictures with these idiots. This is one where I root for the asteroid to make an appearance. Two trash towns that deserve the worst for caring more about football and shielding the coach’s kid from law enforcement in one case and throwing a name on the stadium of a guy who should be exiled to a Siberia Penal colony.

Still not sure how UNLV got to 10 wins this year. Conference should be better next season overall.

I was awarded the title Sultan of Shrimp when I waited tables at Red Lobster, so I can relate.
By "awarded," I mean that one of my co-waiters called me that one night after closing when we hit the margarita machine a bit too hard. So, pretty much same-same.
I remember one time working with a dishwasher in NYC and I bring a plate back with most of the shrimp still on it. I’m about to throw it away and looks at me and says “Can I have it?” Umm yeah sure have at it. “Remember him saying jackpot when I handed him all those shrimp.

lolol if the US wins their very winnable group, they wouldn't play a match outside of the west coast megablue states (WA and CA) until the semifinals. 😂
I’m rooting for the Socceroos and Paraguay. Beat the piss out of the US and I hope Pulisic tears both ACL’s in the first match.
Die Mannschaft is my team thanks to my German born and raised father, but I’ll be rooting for Mexico to have a deep run and Canada as well. Mostly Mexico though out of the two for obvious reasons.

Documentation matters. Ask the nazis.
You’re correct. It absolutely matters even if the documentation is not directly for the benefit of any of us living through this. We don’t have a lengthy overall history of humans being able to document things on a grand scale, but in the few hundred years we’ve had societies that can read, write and have access to a printing press, the Nazis have had no peer in the documentation of evil. So much has been lost or destroyed, but even with that they left behind so much evidence of their atrocities in writing that people can still write new books about what they did.

He was a member of my favorite Laker team. It was the 92-93 Lakers that would’ve beaten Phoenix in Game 5 if not for a Barkley offensive goaltending that wasn’t called. That team had Big Game James on his last legs and a young Vlade. Sad that Elden lost his life the way he did. He always came across as a gentle giant. RIP.
