Yeah man, they are in the Big 10. Literally 10 of the top 30 in 2024 revenue are from the big 10. Their revenue has gone up almost 100 million in the last decade. Their rights fees have like doubled. It's a dumb fucking take. Michigan State is 12. UVA is 14. Arkansas is 20. Wisconsin is 22. No one is saying they are a minnow. Literally no one is acting like this is 2007 Boise State vs OU.
Stop it. In the last 30 seasons, excluding Cig, they have the following winning seasons 2007: 7-6 (3-5 in conference) - they beat Indiana State, Western Michigan, Akron, a 6-6 Iowa, a 1-11 Minnesota, Ball State, and Purdue That's it. They didn't just have to think about winning and suddenly it manifested. Mark Cuban didn't drink fucking charged moonwater and hope this happened. Cig didn't find Aladdin's lamp and wish for this. Stop downplaying this shit, it's dumb and it makes it very clear those of you who do downplay it also eat fucking crayons for breakfast and don't know shit about football.
I think we can be ok with saying he's good and also wanting better. The "plan" at OL was shitty, at best. The GM is shit, and absolutely wouldn't have his job at any other good school worth a damn. The playing down to your competitor shit that Tom Herman did is still around and needs to be solved by now. He has personal issues to iron out that may impact other things, which I don't think other top top guys have. Not talking about alcohol. We want better. It's not too much to ask when he's given a zillion dollars in NIL and paid as well he's paid.
Let's all agree to use the @AP101S version of the roster. It's open, updated faster and isn't behind the IT paywall. Years ago I used to use one that IT had but they just stopped updating it at some point. Meanwhile AP101S has literally fifteen years of history in his, has an Aggie version in it and posts here. His has a bunch more info in it, actual positions (IOL vs C LG RG, EDGE vs Buck, Jack, Will and Mike, NT vs DT) and recruits. Let's all agree it's better to not use something that's put together by lazyasses who can't be troubled to do any more than the absolute bare minimum, when there's something else out there that's free, put together by someone who cares about their work and actually really damn good. Honestly if any of the pay sites were smart (OTF @immamac) they would pay him to put their logo on it and keep doing exactly what he's already doing Google DocsTexas Football.xlsx
Gonna end up with La Liga style buyouts where they are required...but are so high nobody can pay them lol Yamal, Gavi, Pedro,Bellingham and Mbapoe all have a 1 billion euro buyout each. This Duke QB thing is going to result in them skyrocketing if it's allowed.
Not where I thought his career was gonna go...Bowling Green? Stein didn't want him at Kentucky kind of says it all Twitter embed may be busted. Austin Novosad to BG https://surlyx.com/PeteThamel/status/2012276563220251114
Brings value? We clearly have differing measuring sticks of bringing any value. The guy has a bag of nothing and speaks extremely confidently about shit he knows nothing about in basically every thread he touches. At least some people here who are confident in their positions have a tiny chance of being correct. The guy is consistently wrong about sports across the board, recruiting across the board, pop culture across the board, food across the board and anything else I see where he posts. It's astounding how one guy can be so wrong about things so often and has been for years.
Collectively, we need to stop listening to a moron who doesn't understand the first thing about running a business, doesn't understand title IX, doesn't understand Olympic sports and who doesn't understand sports that have rules beyond run ball from here to there or put this ball there. This guy historically would rather have Max Merril taking up a football scholly than someone in rowing or another random sport. Rowing Also shitting on the Aussies? I count 8 on the roster National champion and member of national rowing team x2 National runner up and member of national rowing team Multi time national champion and junior national team member Multi time championship winner Multi time national team member Switched from basketball to rowing Gold medal winner in national rowing championships, part of b12 winning three seat as a freshman Women's rowing has won three national championships in the last five years and finished third last year.
My guy it is absolutely unprecedented for the NFL to flip guys who have never snapped to C. Williams did it for one good year, held out, got hurt and missed half a year, Miami let him go for injure concerns, signed a contact, then retired midway through that year? He was an absolute failure for the for the Cowboys and was benched multiple times, and they let him go without making an offer. Meanwhile Majors set the program record for starts, and started 57 in row while you kept claiming he should be benched basically at every opportunity. Stop sharing ill informed OL takes.
You've also been in favor of moving dudes from guard to center who have never snapped the ball in their entire lives. I think it's quite clear you need to stop having opinions on OL.
Turns out he thought the portal was actually the Pluckers menu he was looking at on DoorDash. They aren't open at 7 so he misunderstood the entire situation.
Honestly...I just want a Dale and Nathan spin off. Few scenes with Boss and his crew. I'd rather watch that than hate watch this dumb shit. I used to watch Goldrush years ago and someone would upload a snipped version to dailymotion I think with no ads and no Todd Hoffman. I need that with no Angela and Ainsley scenes, no limey fucking geologist and nothing that happens in Ft Worth.
