SMU needs to get the booster playbook from the 80's, they would dominate with in 2 yrs.


The NCAA screwed this NIL thing up.

While we are on that subject, what happens if Ewers absolutly balls out. Is manning prepared to sit, does it turn into a train wreck

In the 30 for 30, I think Dickerson said the Aggie guy came up with a briefcase with $250K in it and Dickerson laughed and said that wasn’t even close.

I’ve missed something on the HS and college kids getting paid. Where is all this money coming from and who is it going to? Is this rumor or real or what? Legal?

Anybody got the cliff’s notes version?

Who didn't see this coming?

100 percent agree, texas is about the richest of schools out there. Its gonna be amusing to see the money slinging, back room deals ex that go on in college football the next few years. I think the Ewers kid got a bad rap from alot of people. I think he may be real good and was disappointed my Aggies didnt try and get him. I also wonder about the disaster that texas boosters can be and how that will pan out throwing the Mannings into the mix. As to Jimbo, I think he lives or dies with this recruiting class, if in 2 years he hasnt won the SEC, tall order for sure, and have at least a playoff berth he will be gone. That will be 7 years I think and that's plenty of time. I fully expect another giant pile of money to go towards class of 23 and another top 3 recruiting class so he will have no excuses

And I want to go on the official record that I'm an Ewers fan this year. I want him to do great things. Re write record book type things

Our LSU tickets are next to couple of boosters who are in the group that organized the NIT at LSU, there is no shortage of money to pay these kids.

For years the NCAA and schools have made bank on the backs of the athletes, it's good to see the kids getting a piece.

My only issue is publicizing the numbers, they should be kept 100% private. Making them public knowledge will ruin the NIT program. If everyone else knows what so and so made or is making then the next set of boosters will stick their chest out and try to "out do" everyone else. There is so much money to be paid and it's a good thing for these kids, just keep it tame.

I agree 100 percent, for those that think it will ruin college football I think it will make it vastly more interesting. You may even see kids play their senior year in some cases. I think it opens the doors to more schools being competitive and it will keep some coaches feet to the fire. Will some kid pull up to practice in a lambo? Sure but then if I was 18 and just signed a multi million deal I might buy a lambo too.
