  1. It just seems unsustainable to me. The money needed to fund NIL is going to keep going up. Sooner or later it’s going to be taking away from money that used to be donated to these schools for operations and facility projects. The beast is just going to demand more and more money. There’s got to be a tipping point.
  2. What are you talking about with the higher ups? You mean big NIL donors because that is likely what this is about.
  3. It won’t matter if he’s making $$ but the PAC doesn’t even have a tv contract and when they do 80% of it will be online only.
  4. Think he is financing the NIL for this himself? Its in his interest and Colorado is not the end destination.
  5. I wonder if he even knew who he was? He might end up regretting that when the kid talks about how much alumni support he is getting.
  6. Sorry I wasn’t clear enough for you. I’ll try to get low enough for you next time.
  7. Back in the 90’s I remember thinking she was pretty good looking.
  8. That was really my point. I remember thinking he was good but did not see it coming what he would be in the NBA. I was at a lot of his games and I’m not saying he is not in the pantheon of UT basketball. This year was just unique and being in Moody it was almost like everyone was just waiting to erupt when Rice touched the ball. Him playing to the crowd, giving high fives to fans. It was just lot of fun watching him play. Maybe it’s just fresher than my memory of KD in the Erwin Center.
  9. KD’s reputation is really more for what he’s done in the NBA over Texas. I’d put Rice above him for impact, excitement and showmanship.
  10. I think the point is that this type of crap is not what Austin needs help with. I’d much rather them be at least busting up all the graffiti than hassling people for traffic violations.
  11. We’ve got some issues in Austin. I really want to respect the police but this is consistent with every cop I have known or encountered. The police are populated with either former military types who think they are still in Iraq or those who probably were good people when they started but have become something else because the job really is shit. I have never encountered one professionally, socially or otherwise that I haven’t walked away from the conversation thinking that they were an asshole or had a screw loose. Go by Rudy’s on Lamar in the morning and listen to their conversations and look at all the tactical gear they are wearing around their beer bellies. It’s amazing that they can balance themselves to walk. Oh, and the entitlement they feel from businesses to get free stuff is pretty amazing.
  12. Well, we do have about 50 points a game that we need to replace so it kind of matters.
  13. On a lighter note, tell me why we want the guy from ORU? I’m not suggesting we don’t, I’m just saying I don’t know.
  14. That’s not it. I’m just wondering why you are so convinced that RT is the right hill to die on? Were you a Shaka fan?
  15. Is RT your brother in law or something?
  16. Would you agree that the guy responsible for Disu’s improvement would be valuable?
  17. Yes, I would.
  18. Yeah and none of them were as responsible for our success as Bob. Haith is a cheater and a severe downgrade.
  19. So what’s your point? Those who did know, knew how valuable he was and how much the players liked him. Several on here posted that it was one of the selling points for RT getting the job that he would keep the staff together.
  20. Even though I did not like the hire I thought RT deserved our support. With the news that Coach Bob is leaving…fuck that. And salted the soil.
  21. Has he ever passed a bill? I bet not.
  22. I did not say that I expected this to happen. We don’t even know who is on the team yet. What I said was that with all we have going for us this should be the expectation. I don’t think it is unreasonable to think that we should meet or at least be close to this more often than not.
  23. Compete for conference and conference tourney championship. 1-4 seeding in conference tournament. Win at least one in the tournament. I would call this next season as being the minimum.
  24. This is correct. Also, the reason so many of us were against the hire. None of it matters now but this is what happens when everything gets run through a PR filter. On paper, Tech may have gotten a better coach than us. Will be interesting to compare the actual results over three years or so. Has anyone seen anything concrete on whether Coach Bob is staying?
