    It is dirty. And it won them a game.

    If I remember right, he’d be running from the cheerleader. The fake army guy got the worst of it.

    If we were independent and there were still conferences, we would have problems scheduling top teams. We could get teams looking for a paycheck but not top teams. The top teams wouldn’t want a loss to us that kept them out of the playoff and helped us get in. Notre Dame is being threatened by...

    Thank you, brother leatherneck. Happy 250th anniversary to the Corps and soon to be nation. By the way, I’m glad it wasn’t burnt orange.

    What color is skeptical? I’ve had a few beers tonight and have forgotten. As the immortal Bluto said: “was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?”

    You don’t promise him anything. Just have your donor and agent at the visit and they can hash it out. tt’s Chairman of the Board of Regents is the football teams moneybags. So pretty easy for them.

    It was still 11-2. They got that. There have been equivalent 11-2 seasons but not worse. But we were the better team. We proved that on the field.

    The Playoff Picture

    Until they join a conference let them play at home by themselves. They shouldn’t be able to get in the playoff. Their favorable deal should be canceled when the new playoff gets agreed to.

    And him being 5’ 6” (listed at 6 ft) doesn’t help his future either.

    It’s really a bad look for Georgia. He received $30k (one month of contract ). And Georgia is saying he has to pay back the 11 months he didn’t get paid. Should make for good negative recruiting.

    My point is that it’s not the coach who has a responsibility for the finances of the athletic department. Neither is it the responsibility of the fans. The AD and school administration are responsible for that. The BMDs provide the finances. Think of it this way. When you are negotiating your...

    You have a point but most schools don’t have $200M in revenue. And that $200M has to pay for the entire athletic department budget (facilities, coaches salaries, insurance for the athlete, etc.) The other sports don’t have near the revenue. If I recall correctly only two or three athletic...

    Most of them do. They get bonuses if they win championships, etc. The big payouts people are complaining about to Fisher and Kelly were stupid contracts given by the same AD at different schools. The third was for Franklin at Penn State and he was there 12 pretty successful years. He signed an...

    But the schools are signing the contracts. You can’t blame it all on the agent. The coaches want the money and security, the schools want the transformational coach, the agent negotiates for the coach. The big money donors and ADs negotiate for the school. The problem lies in the AD BMD...

    Unless he is the one having his clients fired, he doesn’t have a conflict. He’s just getting paid for the contracts he’s negotiated. The schools and big money donors are big boys; they should be looking out for themselves. But it appears that only one side of some of these negotiations is...

    GAME WEEK – Texas hosts Vanderbilt

    But to be fair the prevent may have worked better with McDonald and Taafe on the field.
