  1. This is not uncommon in my industry. There are some great culture places - good people, good products, etc. Pay and RSU offerings are attractive and competitive. However, there are a few firms that pay a lot more and use their inflated stock to money whip. Hard to convince a person on their mid-30s that culture will beat the massive comp. 3x RSU grant can ameliorate crappy culture - for a few years. As noted, the difference between $1.5mm and $1.0mm is significant. If the guy took $100k of that and dropped it in VTI, historical returns would provide him around $1.7mm when he's 50. Or he could buy a sportscar.
  2. Purdue will be his 4th stop. Juco -> 2 years at Troy -> South Carolina -> Purdue. fwiw He had a 49.2 PFF rating in his first 4 games of the season. Improved a little later on.
  3. They're studying Play-Doh and remain "Fearless."
  4. Seems like neither he nor his representatives understand the ramifications of signing a contract.
  5. Pretty easy for the AI to fix him up
  6. Shoot. Just rewatched that Live Aid performance. There was enough shitty playing to go around. Plant was missing notes. Page was high as a kite and all over the place. Collins def needed at least one rehearsal. I guess Phil's mistake - talking about it again (??) Edit to add - 1985 Cher was top-notch.
  7. Larry Ellison to the rescue. Or - we sent Derek Warehime to the Guarnera household to seal the deal.
  8. "I think it’s most likely they end up at the same school, but I wouldn’t rule out a split." Where can I send my $9.95 for that riveting analysis?
  9. Fwiw: https://overthecap.com/salary-cap/miami-dolphins BEFORE June 1: After June 1:
  10. Curt Cignetti was TE coach and recruiting coordinator at Pitt in 1995. I contend he invented the notion of pairing a blocking TE w/ a catching TE. j/k https://documenting.pitt.edu/islandora/object/pitt%3A31735062136191/viewer#page/24/mode/2up
  11. From the linked article: At the same time, the Red Raiders can now use transfer quarterback Brendan Sorsby as a selling point, while playing with Aggie QB Marcel Reed and star wide receiver Mario Craver will be equally enticing. I don't see USC as a legitimate threat, and Texas will still be in the running regardless. Not one mention of Manning; smh; after all, it is "aggieswire"
  12. Cam played HS ball ~30 miles SE of Auburn, in Phenix City. Landing at Auburn is not that far out of the question. He did flip from Aggy to Auburn after Jimbo was fired. He had 4 visits: Auburn, LSU, Aggy, Clemson. For an NIL era signing, it certainly looks like a list of bag-toting teams, though.
  13. If an edge can drop back in pass coverage, perhaps he can be moved to WR. 4-dimensional thinking?
  14. 22% of his total rushing yards came in 1 game - against Colorado. Colorado was #133 of 134 in run defense.
  15. For consistency's sake, Sark is dropping the ball by retaining the ball-dropping WR coach.
  16. Let the retreading begin...
  17. I am a Steelers fan, too, and said, "blow it up if they lose this game." Looks like that is not happening. It was hilarious that Tirico and that shit-heel Collinsworth were talking about Tyler Loop... Paraphrased: "They traveled the country looking for a kicker and concluded that Loop was made of the right stuff." Miss. I guffawed. Houston needs to call the play that got Flowers and Likely loose multiple times around 10x against the Steelers.
  18. Additional confirmation that Nahlin is a chode. No surprise. "I regret nothing" about calling out a fan favorite former player is quite the position to take. What a twit.
  19. So not historically accurate? Crap.
  20. Gibson to Purdue would be fine with me. He's better than all the spares they have at RB right now. We have Connor Stroh to thank for that. Given Texas does not play Kentucky next year and Purdue does not play Northwestern, I'd kind of prefer Stroh go to one of our competitors. At least we'd know where to send Kanu - on every play.
