the cypress one is odd, it's like 2 miles from the huge Waller one isn't it?

Yes and it goes to show just how dumb they are. There was already an uneven playing field with us on the downslope side. It was just a dark money, illegal playing field. They were fine with that so long as it wasn't "uneven" out in the open. Fuck them. Now it's legal and the NCAA can fuck right off if the see-saw flips.

Except the elites are doing both now. We have to advertise ours while they are silently promoting bags + fat NIL deals. We’re still on the down slope.

That one is a bit bigger - more of a medium.  But dwarfed by the one out near Prairie View / Hempstead.

there are smaller ones in Brazoria and Eagle Lake, too.

Good, because I'm really sick of the have-nots winning every single year under the current setup.

Football gods and such … right about the time we have this thing fully weaponized I expect there will be a push for an agreement at the P5 level to cap NIL to make sure it is ‘fair and equitable’.   
 

we just can’t nice things anymore.

You're just flat wrong on the NIL side, which is par for the course, I guess. But maybe enlighten me and tell me where the fat NIL deals are that are in the shadows. If you reference the Bryce Young type of stuff like an idiot, let's preempt that with Robinson and others at Texas seeing similar shit. That isn't school or alumni driven. So which school alumni bases are driving "fat NIL deals"?

Recruiting signing bonus are still against the rules. 

Poverty won't be as much of a decision driver, but greed isn't going away.

It's against the rules but easy enough to work around.  After a couple of years of history, it will be well-understood what a recruit is going to get at any particular school in his first year, based on position and rating.  And special bonuses will become understood as well.  The talk will be under the table and the money won't be paid until enrollment so it all looks nice and above board.  The "have not" cheater schools might still attempt some bag tactics, but recruits are going to know they'll stand to make a lot more at a "have" if they just play the game.

"Dunne made his elite debut with the United States. Classic and finished twentieth in the free body, thirty-third in the all around, thirty-fifth in the beam, thirty-sixth in the jump and thirty-ninth in the beam. She didn’t make it to the national championships."

She could finish, and cum in first on my beam anytime!

Surly slipping???

ctj stated yesterday, and burton this morning, another part of this venture will be announced today at noon.

The details will reportedly apply specifically to the oline group.

Looking forward to the day we line up an oline comparable to scott-studdard-sendlein-allen-blalock

I will be posting the announcement here as well at 1PM. Look for a banner and a thread in the football board. 

I know there was mention of 3 major portions of this NIL enhancement. 

Please tell me one of these will be incentives structured ? Is that even possible with the way the laws are written ? 

 

EX: 10k per sack, 20k per interception etc obviously making up numbers here just examples

$50k per offensive lineman should result in some more pancake blocks!

Can I donate to this and have it be a deduction on taxes? 

It's a 501c, so I don't see why not.

 

9 days to signing day. Not a lot of time for our recruiting competitors to come up with this kind of $ for an annual commitment.

Is that correct that Clark Field is officially paying guys $100k per year? Is that all football players, OLs, or what? Hadn't heard that.

Yes

The OL will be doing stuff with charities in return

Lulz.  Every spare-ass cheater school that relies on a bag game but can't compete with real money above the table, is going to have a problem with us.

It’s weird. All the people who pay people under the table are mad we are paying people over the table.

A school that has multiple dispositions discussing fraud related to recruit payments AND employs Will Wade can kindly go fuck itself.
