  1. Easily the most excited I’ve ever been for basketball season
  2. I think the last sentence is the most likely reason
  3. I don’t believe it personally but I have heard it, supposedly it was something spun the wrong way but it got back to Quinn
  4. He also found out Tom Herman was talking shit about his game
  5. It’s more from the coaches and support staff. They can’t promise anything but they can say if asked “Jatavion Sanders received 10k last year and they intend to keep the program going every year”. Kids are more reserved, they may bring it up if asked directly but otherwise they keep it close to the vest especially as to not cause trouble with their other teammates. I’m sure there are a couple people in the locker room currently that wouldn’t want the fact that Nate Hatter is making more NIL money than current starters. Which is why publicizing NIL deals is always the smart thing to do and why we try and promote it as much as possible. These last three pages would have not even occurred if Jaleel Skinner was committed in the class. To address others in the thread bitching and moaning about NIL without Burnt Ends flair, firstly get your mind right or stop bitching. You can’t bitch about NIL without being willing to give $10 a month to something that’s actually worked. Again, the burnt ends was always intended to be a proof of concept from @immamac and my dumb brain into the brains of smarter people with more resources. We chose TEs because it’s the smallest room and when crowd sourcing and starting from zero it’s better to try and pay 7 guys than 18 WRs or 22 OL. 10k to 7 TEs sounds better 3k to 22 OL and is a much more eye opening number. If we had more bandwidth to promote it I am sure it would get even bigger but losses and time has dampened that quite a bit. Sark also mentioned it was the second most important position in his offense, who’s to say if we had better TEs that the offense wouldn’t be running better? How do we get better TEs? You get the picture. We are also working on something MUCH MUCH bigger than this but it takes time. First steps have been taken and the ball is rolling just slowly and most importantly methodically. Death Star wasn’t built overnight and this would weaponize the NIL bigger than any other school outside of Oregon. Things seem dark right now, no one has been more negative than I have but when people get mad instead of apathetic change can come quickly…y’all just need to hope people get mad. If you have interest in helping in the future with NIL, hell even if it’s something as simple as being a gopher in Austin when I can’t get up there to do something or if you are a lawyer, CPA, work in advertising, graphic design, IT guy or would like to help fundraising please hit my DMs. We won’t need your help at this exact moment till certain steps have been fulfilled but I promise, we WILL need your help. Oh and the Burnt Ends is a baller fucking name
  6. My vote is Party bus from Austin to Houston and back makes the most sense. Grant can block off the patio for us
  7. Incorrect. The whole compliance deal is way way overblown, besides the not using burnt orange thing which is very dumb
  8. If he had come to Texas he would be starting already. Casey Thompson and Hudson Card have pretty damn good NIL deals and they are major JAGs, not 1.4 million but Ewers could absolutely get to that level as the starting QB here especially if he performed as advertised, come on home Quinn
  9. Maybe maybe not. He had the injury his senior year, he tears a labrum, some of the shine on him fades and who knows. Someone offers you 1.4 million to do nothing except miss your prom, you take it

  12. https://www.on3.com/teams/texas-longhorns/news/2023-defensive-back-jamel-johnson-commits-to-texas/ First 2023 commit is in (I dont count Owens)
  13. Guys y’all seriously need to cut this shit out. That’s my final solution
  14. She has been invited through every possible avenue
