  1. I think he’s just stating a fact as evidenced by the below: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wsj.com/amp/articles/nurse-salaries-rise-as-demand-for-their-services-soars-during-covid-19-pandemic-11637145000 https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/covid-travel-nurses/2021/12/05/550b15fc-4c71-11ec-a1b9-9f12bd39487a_story.html https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wsj.com/amp/articles/high-pay-for-covid-19-nurses-leads-to-shortages-at-some-hospitals-11630253483 Also, I’m not sure your statement that “everyone pays the bills” is valid here. Hospitals/hospital administrators pay the bills. My boss’ wife is a hospital admin in NYC and she’s said that a lot of Northeast hospitals have struggled to be profitable because of problems with labor retention and wage inflation. I would imagine that’s the case in many places around the country. When hospitals aren’t profitable and they start closing, that’s a problem for everybody. Maybe you should think about this the next time you complain about someone’s knowledge being limited.
  2. Weird. I thought Texas Tech had the greatest OC and greatest QB room in the country. Who would want to transfer out of there?? What a moron!
  3. The IRS is not going to come after these guys unless the donors themselves are committing other tax fraud as well. As crazy as it sounds $300-500K is not going to get the IRS to spend resources auditing/building a case against someone. They have billionaires/millionaires they would rather go after who get away with larger check sizes. If aggy was dumb enough to have the entire amount for all the players run through one person I could see that becoming an issue though.
  4. Sad is not this man losing Caleb Williams from the team. Sad is him coming here to talk about it. Man writes paragraph after paragraph about OU football on a Texas site. That’s like an OU fan posting up at Cain and Abel’s on the reg. What did your homies do to you? I’m half joking but also half curious.
  5. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.si.com/college/notredame/.amp/football/notre-dame-football-quinn-carroll-enters-transfer-portal Not sure if he’s a take given the number of HS kids coming in on OL but third year guy that was pretty highly rated coming out of high school. ND guys saying he had a pretty bad knee injury that he hasn’t quite recovered from. https://247sports.com/Player/Quinn-Carroll-94043/
  6. Aside from the customary fuck the Brocks, is there still smoke on them transferring? I remember that picking up steam but then people started saying to wait until after the NC game. Gotta think Tommy B is worth adding to the roster + the entire family loves Flood.
  7. Gerry just said he has some “special insight” on Shazz Preston but won’t say until after he signs.
  8. FSU livestream reaction to losing Travis Hunter… they’re down real bad…
  9. I know our chances of getting him were low to begin with but he and Dudley would be an amazing finish given our current linebacker situation.
  10. I probably also shouldn’t worry about the tweets and decisions of a bunch of 17/18 year olds but I (and clearly many others) do it nonetheless
  11. Where are all these kids gonna go? Are we just gonna process a ton of the existing roster?
  12. Denver just liked TB’s commit to Texas on Twitter. Things looking better and better.
  13. Yeah. He could totally just pull a Quinn and go wherever he wants next year if he doesn’t like it.
  14. I wonder if Denver could be a domino that gets Evan to hold out/flip. He’s been really pushing him hard/interacting with him the most.
