I'm sure someone players will over play their hands. I have no idea how much he is being offered vs what he wants. It may put the team in a bad spot, but it's hard to imagine it being a good strategy. If true, it's a bit of a stain on his shine, so likely causes his market value to drop...

A win gets us to 10 wins for the season, and finishes the "season" on a high note. I would hope they get the team as prepared as possible.

If so, I guess it's a sign of the times. I totally understand that both the players and the schools need to do what's best for them, but as a fan this mostly sucks. I guess it must suck much worse if your school isn't able to participate in the NIL arms race.

Perhaps the greatest SEC shorts ever!!!

Says Texas is his dream school. Time will tell, but our track record for top recruits saying that is really bad...

Sark will get a lot of heat if he doesn't win enough games. He obviously understands this, and it's safe to assume he will make hiring decisions that he thinks give the team the best chance to win. There were also rumors that PK wanted to go back to the west coast, so keeping PK long term may...

Too funny. Not sure how this all plays out but BAS is alive and well. Hopefully the pattern of a coach showing promise, getting a huge raise/extension, followed by years of disappointment is continuing.

Yeah after his final year it also left a bad taste in my mouth. That was 16 years ago, and I haven't followed him much. 55 year old Muschamp likely quite different then 39 year old Muschamp. . Hopefully Sark knows what he is doing.

Not sure if that's allowed. Theoretically NIL isn't pay for play, although that's mostly a joke at this point

Multi year has advantages and disadvantages. Another problem with a multi year deal is if you have a 3 star who becomes a star, they are not going to be happy when their backup is making way more money then they are.

I agree it's unlikely to be about money, since he is well regarded and we are thin at linebacker. No idea about his reasoning, but best of luck to him moving forward.

I don't understand why players feel differently about the bowl vs the playoffs. In both cases it's a final opportunity to play for your school, get extra exposure, with the down side of potential injury. I understand a potential natty is a bigger deal then a cheez it citrus bowl championship...

Paving apologizes. You act like an ass, then eneugh people tell you that you acted like an ass, so you try to fix it. Better then not apologizing, I guess...

Exactly. It's hard to imagine his complaining about not leading, then not winning helping his future options.

With the 3-6-6 scheduling model, all of the teams we don't play this year, we will be playing next year, so we will play UGA and Bamna next year.

Wow, what a train wreck. Very sad. "He was formally arraigned on charges including felony third-degree home invasion, stalking, and breaking and entering. "...

I'm surprised to see Florida and Mississippi State on the schedule for next year. I figured that our 6 non rivalry games would be against teams we didn't play this year and last.

When you look at Major Applewhite and Bobby Petrino you realize that these types of events will get you fired, and be bad for your career , but generally are not career ending. The pending assault charges won't help his future job prospects.

Wow, after 2 seasons. Either something bad happened, or that's insane.

Trying to figure out how many portal spots we have open. With By my count, which could easily be wrong, we currently have 20 open slots for the portal. The portal officially opens on January 2nd. I don't know why players announce they are entering the portal before the bowl game, but I would...
