Hasn't aggy bought 4 of the top 10 players in the state of Georgia?  For this fucking class?  Zero honesty or self awareness.

Also, Sark categorically denied that $40M Kurt Bowels bullshit propaganda:

Steve Sarkisian denies claims Texas spent excessively to build roster, cites 'irresponsible reporting' Steve Sarkisian responded to claims the Texas football program's payroll reached the $40 million mark, saying the figure was misleading.

God I hate lying idiots.

Ohio state has the most oil money?  They don’t seem to be getting priced out of a competitive roster. 

Ohio State doesn't play in the SEC. 

By the way, neither is GA. They're still ranked higher than us. They have 20 4 stars to our 12, granted a much bigger class. Even if you take away our 3 specialists, their average star ranking might still be higher than ours.

They're lying children with no concept of reality.

Unfortunately he used the word "misleading", maybe I've had to deal with too many lawyers over the years, but when someone says something is misleading, it tends to scream at me that whatever they are saying it about is actually accurate, but they want to deny it or the number is correct, but there is important "context"......  Why use the word misleading....if the number is wrong just say its wrong....

 

Sorry, like I said, too much time spent having to deal with lawyers over the years.

What if half of it is corporate NIL for arch?  Total could be accurate but the context would show that most of the players are in the same range as other top programs.  
 

or other things, such as the separation between collectives and corporate, or now school and corporate.

This is why the number is and was “misleading”. Manning is getting 1st round draft pick corporate NIL and multiple other guys are getting serious corporate NIL too. Bohls framed it in a way that made it sound like it was all collective and somehow that also makes people/media think it’s shady.

Aggy bought the ones Georgia doesn’t want. They overpaid for Georgia depth. Texas is getting their starters. That’s why they’re crying and I love it. Aggy is overpay for optics.

Georgia didn’t win shit for 40 fucking years until Kirby showed up and started dropping bags that made even Saban blush. 

People barely knew Georgia had a football team after 1980 when Walker left. They truly wandered the desert for 40 years, won 2 NC's, and now they believe they're one of the greatest programs in existence. Yet, Clemson also won 2 NC's before UGA, and they somehow acknowledge they aren't some sleeping giant that finally awoke. 

When your NC was relevant when Reagan was president, you know you're desperate for attention. But but but we Jawja. We a powerhouse with 4 total CFP appearances and keep riding our last NC from 2022. It's not fair! We should be given everything now! Those losses we've taken don't count!

I think Bohls was also including the $20.5M from the House settlement as well.  Which would be silly because anyone that wants to can pay that, and many schools will.

You know what's nice? I don't give a shit about Georgia. 

If CFB was a neighborhood, OU would be the asshole from across the street that we fucking hate and have to deal with all the time. Aggies would be our embarrassing redneck cousin who our mom makes us spend time with and who constantly talks about how great his life in La Porte and our life in the big city with all the hobos and the gays must suck. Baylor, Tech, and TCU are gross people from around the block whose loud music and antics frequently interfere with our quiet enjoyment of the backyard. Arkansas is some dude we knew in high school and who we actively avoid when we see him at the grocery store. 

Georgia? They're some fucking weird on the bus. Somebody who is clearly not right but nonetheless tries to strike up a conversation. I don't give a shit about talking to them or wasting my energy on them because I've got my own life to live. Maybe someday they'll graduate to a program I care enough about to hate. But they're not our friends, family, or neighbors and I don't give a single shit about them other than the week we happen to play. My prediction? They will, at best, be our next Nebraska. 

Fuck 'em. Fuck Smart too, with his stupid fucking haircut and poindexter hat. Toss them on the pile with the rest of the CFB world that hate us because they ain't us.

Honestly, that's what I thought we were doing when we moved to this fucking conference. Turns out these guys bitch even more than the whiniest elements of the Big 12. I swear, dealing with ISU and OkSU fans was better.

It's gross that you even put us in the same neighborhood as any of those teams. They live in trailers while we live in O'ahu mansion. Aggie are related to us in the same way Ketch is related to slim fast. 

Arkansas is the kid who throws beer cans at adults on the other side of the street all while trying to complete a sentence telling them to get off his lawn. 

Baylor is the institution that allows depraved, animal abusers in their uni while also trying to justify why they're pieces of shit.

Tech is the Herbert of Family Guy who tries to lure kids with money to come over and have tickling contest. 

TCU is just...nothing. They're as relevant as Nebraska.

I’m starting to like the state of Jawja though. They’re growing some really nice front 7 guys for us. Much appreciated.

We should send them a picture each year we win the title with flowers. 

Georgia was aggie before they broke through after 1945, and then went dormant until bags dropped and they got Texas nuts drugged across their faces. Now that they know we're here to face fuck them, we have now solidified our place on the throne of villainy. 

It's our turn now. As a Longhorn, I would like to thank the state of georgia for supplying us with their elite players. Same for Florida.

Man I wish we could just go independent. 

We aren’t even on double secret probation yet. Or are we?

though the idea of winning the conference and the national championship this season and then at the end of the academic year after we win the cws saying “yeah this isn’t really for us, we are entering the portal” does have a certain amount of charm. I’m sure they’d feel nothing.

You know what they had going for them? They were willing to do all the negotiations in private and then spring it on everyone as a fait accompli. Even kept everything from A&M because they would have gummed up the works until the whole deal was basically done, then strong armed the Aggies into voting for it so it would be a unanimous vote.

The Big Ten wanted a public discourse about the possibility of allowing Oklahoma and Texas into the conference, which would have given the state legislature every opportunity to torpedo it - because you know they would have. We were blessed to have Eltife - or as I like to call him, Eljefe - because he was intimately aware of how elements of the legislature would react, and navigated it perfectly. We got everything done in an off year where only the governor could call a special conference, and of course Abbott was a friend to the cause and would do no such thing.

The irony is that Big Ten's insistence on having an open dialogue because it wouldn't be right to make the decisions in secret, ended up with Oklahoma and Texas going straight into the arms of the SEC - which may have happened anyway, but they made sure they weren't an option. Then when the USC/UCLA deal happened, Fox made sure it was a done deal - in secret - before the California legislature could get involved. They still did, with the Board of Regents punishing UCLA a bit for asking for forgiveness rather than permission, but the deal still got done. I'm not sure that USC/UCLA deal gets done the way it did without the shock of OU/Texas doing the deal they did with the SEC. Fox made it clear it was unacceptable for USC/UCLA to go to the SEC as well, and they made sure the deal with Big Ten, with all its warts, got signed and delivered. 

In any case, I hate being in the SEC because of our compatriots, but not being in the conference meant we would have fallen behind in the new world order. Basically, I hate the collective fandoms, but their single minded passion regarding college football means the SEC has a dominance regarding the future of college football the other conferences outside the Big Ten would never have. We needed to get into either the SEC or the Big Ten to maintain our relevance. The timing was crucial. As much as I hate the SEC, I am grateful we're a part of it. 

Who knows what the future is going to bring? Without protection from federal legislation there's going to be more and more pressure for the Big Ten and SEC to do some kind of football merger, inviting whichever programs they want to be part of the whole thing. I'm not saying it's imminent, but it's inevitable. Without being able to control payroll - and it's going to be impossible to control payroll with the current dynamics in play - there will be constant pressure to raise revenue, and to split the revenue with fewer entities. This is market systems 101. Texas would have always had a seat at the table, but the membership in the SEC means we have more say over the process than we ever would have in the Big 12. The Big 12 was compromised anyway because outside of Texas and OU it was a conference of poors - some of the programs are REALLY poor - and their agendas would have never meshed with UT. Because of the television deal, every program in the SEC has at least some funds to work with, especially when compared to the Big 12, so there's at least a little bit of a unified front, even if none of them have the overall resources Texas does. 

I will say I do believe federal protection is going to come some day. I just don't know when that will be or what kind of messed up form it will take. Because you know it's going to be messed up in some way. It always is.
