Serious question: which Mizzou player banger your mom and gave her herpes?


It’s just so fun calling out a garbage pail program and making their posters excessively post about sexual innuendo.

I will now add herp, banging moms etc to the lexicon of Missouri spaz posters.

Keep going.

I'd venture to guess most DI schools spend well over $20million a year on scholarship athletes, now that $20mill/yr will be expensed as revenue sharing instead of scholarship compensation.

My crystal ball shows this leading to formation of Super SEC with 32 teams taken from Big 12, ACC, Big 10, and a few G5 with massive potential.

I don’t think the SEC would be well served getting in bed with the Big 10. Take away OSU and Penn St, Michigan their brand of ball is boring.

I see two conferences evolving like old AFC and NFC. 32 teams each.

Super Bowl for college. Other teams go their own way.

Players become employees. Collective bargaining. Contracts. Draft like NFL. No recruiting. Players must stay 4 years minimum and graduate for full compensation.

Structured exactly like NFL.

Yes, we fans will pay. Me, I’m watching on big screen. But, I do see streaming coming and having to pay for top games. I expect in next round eventually Amazon, Apple, Netflix etc will buy certain games. Can you imagine LSU/ Bama with 12 million eyeballs paying $4.99 to watch on Amazon. I’ll pay.


I already don't watch the NFL. There is a reason why I follow college football and NONE of this is it.

There won't be 12 million eyeballs watching that shite.

I respectfully disagree. I’d venture it probably will be for individual games along with free games. SEC will need to raise more revenue things will get greedy. For us rabid college fans, we’ll pay to watch Texas / OU, Bama/ LSU, Texas / A&M etc. The free games will be like Missouri/ Vandy. Etc . I don’t like it but the asshats that run the sport already don’t give a F—. About us. So why should they hesitate to bleed as much as they can from us?

Texas was a little ahead of its time with the LHN but had the right idea.


Exactly what are you a rabid fan of? Just the name Alabama?

Could probably market a box of shite to someone like you as long as they put the Alabama logo on it.

Personally, nothing you've described thus far is college football. So I don't see how you can keep saying you are a rabid fan of something that no longer exists, just the team names.

Even this year was tough with the excessive ads and pacing issues.

If they're not careful people will do other stuff on Saturdays

Who will pay? Maybe the same dumb fricks that pay coaches $27M - $85M not to coach.

CFB lost the argument on paying players with idiotic buyouts for coaches nobody wants.
If I'm an athlete and I watch my school fire coaches along with the coordinators & position coaches to the tune of +$100 million, I'm damn sure pissed that I worked in the weightroom, film study and on the field busting my arse for the equivalent of pennies.

I understand the side of the athletes, I think they deserve a share of the revenue generated. We've seen greedy bastards hoard the $$ from TV networks/ticket sales/concessions/conference revenue and they (NCAA/universities) refused to budge an inch to spread some of that wealth for far too long.

This is so ignorant and just highlights any player who thinks this bullshite is clueless.

The coaches make that much money because they are worth it. When was the last time you saw a kid right out of highschool hired to coach a football team? You know why? Because not a SINGLE player on the field can do what those coaches making all that money could do. NONE OF THEM. Those coaches have been doing this shite for decades to get to that level.

You know what that money being spent on coaches actually is? It's the school providing them the highest level of coach to teach them the game. That money is to the BENEFIT of the players, and you just act like it's fricking worthless?

Go ahead and try to pay someone that qualified to train you and tell me it's worthless.

All I see are ignorant people who don't understand the concept of value outside money. I can't blame Saban for retiring and not wanting to deal with such bullshite.

And btw, tell them to go join the military and see how fricking great the pay is. And not only are you doing all the shite work you can think of and some shite jobs you never even fricking thought of, you're going to possibly at some point sacrifice your life for it.

And they make LESS than what college football players get before NIL, just in the benefits and such they are eligible for, NOT to mention better healthcare, facilities and so on.

The entire thing is ignorant and insulting to anyone who's actually had to work for a living. Show me any job where the person starting out isn't doing the hard work for cheap pay. You want that big time money, you put your time in and earn it. Then you get to hire the people who do the shite work.

It's like feeding a feral cat. Once you feed it once you can't get rid of it.
Once the dam broke with lawyers winning a lawsuit and thusly getting paid, you can't get rid of them. They'll keep finding ways to use the courts to extract as much money as possible from this situation because they DGAF about college athletics.
When the lifeless corpse of college athletics is bled completely dry, they'll just slither away to find something else on which to feed.

Saban quit because he couldn’t get players to be “employees” of the school. Sorry Nick and Bama, looks like you have to win fair and square now.

RT1941 is correct.

3down10 if anything smacks of ignorance it is your post. The coaches were never worth 10 million dollars a year, the main reason they got that money was to try to “recruit” the best players. There is very little difference between the coaching players are receiving at the top 40-50 CFB programs; the best players go where they have the best chance of getting to the NFL. Coaches like Saban and Smart did a great job of selling their programs as the best path to the NFL and were successful as a result of that.

Now college players are being treated more fairly in terms of their true market value to a college team. The programs that deal best with this reality will be successful. Programs that choose to stick their head in the sand and complain that players are selfish and entitled will likely not get very many good players on their teams. However, since I am an Auburn fan I hope you are able to convince Alabama to use your suggested approach.

Good guess bammer. Your team pays about $17M (presumably not including Dodge Chargers and rimz) LINK Mine pays $19M. I'd guess the rest of the schools are right in line. If athletes are going to get paid, then their scholarships, room and board should come out of the payday.

Every team in the NFL knows that when you get an Alabama player they are better coached and ready to play at a higher level than the other schools.

A 5 star player who went to Alabama was more than twice as likely to get drafted in the 1st round than the next highest team.

Nothing more than the Dunning-Kruger effect going on here. You obviously haven't a clue as to what it takes to be a successful coach. Especially if you think the top30-40 coaches are all the same.

This is so dumb, I don't even know how to take you serious.

In this case I completely agree with you, that effect is going on where you are.

I also agree this is dumb, wasting my time replying to you, it is not even any fun anymore. I remain hopeful that your logic and reasoning will be the guiding light which Alabama football looks to for the next 20 years.
