  1. Re: I found an easy way to communicate with El Chapo

    Wonder if Logan's departure had anything to do with this?

  2. Re: I found an easy way to communicate with El Chapo

    Seems to be resigning for another job, gave a nice farewell.
    I'd guess maybe moving up to the bigs like ESPN/ABC, or maybe a bigger role at another station.

  3. Re: McFeely's Tip Sheet: NDSU working toward Alston payments for athletes

    We don’t have pure, unregulated capitalism in America for a reason, it always ends up in monopoly or a small oligopoly at best.

    In this case, the P2 are becoming a powerful duopoly that will soon...

    Re: Has Richman Run this Program Into the Ground??

    If that happened, it might be a real blessing.

    Time for a clean slate, they can take richman with them.
  5. Re: McFeely's Tip Sheet: NDSU working toward Alston payments for athletes

    Yes, and the current NIL system seems setup to exploit fans - “please contribute to help pay Johnny QB $1m so he won’t run off to BigTime U where they have more fans and money”

    It’s a system built...

    Even the NFL has spending caps, college sports now doesn't.

    Because of the massive disparity in revenue, this means we won't have anything close to parity.

    Re: GDT: Fighting Hawks

    Comes down to spending priorities though.

    Take the money from the Alston payments, and could probably have kept Grant Nelson, and maybe a new coach too.

    I like basketball, and would probably...

    Re: A new and better FBS thread

    Oh, I expect the P2 will leave *and* be assholes about it, taking as much revenue as possible with them. It’s a question of when, not IF. They want to be NFL lite.
  9. Re: McFeely's Tip Sheet: NDSU working toward Alston payments for athletes

    That argument holds for the top power conferences, but not the vast majority of NCAA schools.

    Therein lies the problem. Alabama, OSU, Michigan, etc do in fact generate many millions in profit.

  10. Re: McFeely's Tip Sheet: NDSU working toward Alston payments for athletes

    There's some truth to this for sure.

    The P2 (SEC/B10) are driving towards unlimited spending in every sport, and will likely break off as a pro/semi-pro division in time.

    If they need to leave...

    Re: NDSU to AAC prepare theyself.

    UMass was previously one of those mistakes. UMass had to give up A10 basketball to rejoin.

    True, the real challenge is a lack of G5 schools nearby, which is the next logical step.

    Still think we could make MWC work if they decide to expand. That conference is a bit more spread out and...

    Pretty much, its going to just be an amateur sports job now, rather than true college sports.

    To be fair, I guess the bar is a whole lot lower than I thought in FBS. I just don't consider 2 or 3 nattys a dynasty.

    Re: The new overused word....'Dynasty'

    3's not even close to a dynasty ... maybe 5 within 6 years would qualify or be close.

    An argument could be made for 85-90 Georgia Southern: 4 titles in 6 years.
    Even there, it might be debatable.

    Yes, though the P4 seem to be favoring transfers over inexperienced HS kids. That could mean far more talented but unproven HS kids available.

    Very good chance he's seeing at least 50-100k. A starter there would get far more.
