quote:Hal is teasing that we have a shot
Pup Howard just entered the portal. We may have been tampering and are the team to look for.

This means he’s going somewhere else
This is how it will go down first. hal will say that some other teams tampered and Florida won’t because it’s against the rules blah blah blah
And he will say that we don’t have enough NIL money becuase fans aren’t giving to the colllectives and it’s the fans fault why billy can’t close and the fans are entitled and blah blah blah

Is it really a HCs fault if his program is cheap?
As an employee, If your company gives you 40 million to compete against a rival with 100 million….
Kids don’t care how “cool” you might be if you ain’t got that big bag.

I believe a major part of his negotiating with UF was having them agree in writing to be more supportive financially

And then what, hire the OC at ApSt as his successor??

Maybe that explains why, even though they gave him the Army analysts we went cheap with a lot of the other staff hires with all the Sun Belt coordinater and position coaches , 30 year old DCs etc

Michigan just showed what the market is for a top Playoff HC
100 mill plus
UF will never. We just gotta accept this is what we are right now.

Other teams fire their HC:
We hear names like Riley, Franklin and Kelly in their search.
UF HC search: OC for Liberty, OC for UCF and if we go all out and swing for the fences, the HC for AZ
Chip Kelly used us to leverage UCLA
Read that again

But we can maybe strike gold with a guy that can develop talent and st Least be competitive to feel like a 10 win season is possible sometimes and have 7-8 wins as a floor
Instead we have decades of 6-6 football staring us in the face too look forward to

7-8 floor with 10 wins used to be doable. In the old SEC.
Look around the SEC, teams are spending more than us and now we have 2 new BIG money teams coming
Shits about to get worse, we’ll be begging for 7-8 wins

Shits gonna get way worse before it gets better. Until the powers that be acknowledge that the days of hiring a good coach and relying on coaching to win isn’t going to work in the NIL era.

The uaa/admin are holding this program back from being what it should or could be

We seemed to have come around on that some with the early HS class but I wonder if a lot of big boosters now don't want to do much thinking Napier won't survive 2024.

Good points. With TX and OK joining with no East protection any longer even if you have your stuff together some it may mean 8-4 seasons. You will have to really compete to get those 9-3 or better seasons that might get you in the new 12 team playoff.

From Athletic article today that is anonymous pole of the UA players:
Did you partake in any trolling of fan bases with comments on social media for your personal enjoyment?
• A little bit. I’d put out photos of myself at a school I wasn’t visiting just to see what people might say. There were times I’d put out like statements — like you’d do if you were decommitting — to scare people. You just need to have fun sometimes.
• I loved messing with fan bases. I did that to the school I almost signed with.
• I trolled people indirectly. Usually it was our rival. As far as adding followers, I added teams to my list at times and it worked.
• Yeah. I was trolling (a rival school), like posting stuff saying I was gonna commit there. I was just doing it for fun.
• Me and one of my high school teammates would send out certain hashtags and emojis to get fan bases from other teams on social media riled up. It was more about being bored and wanting to do something to see how people might react.
• A little bit. I did it to the fans of the school I was previously committed to just because I was tired of them. I’d ask them: “How was that flip for you?”
• I dropped a top 10 when I was really only looking at four or five schools. I did it for the followers. I got like 231,000 views for it and picked up followers.
• Every day. To get my followers up? Every day. Gosh. All the emojis, all the question marks, “Is this home?” I was getting all my committed friends to send me messages just so I could reply and be like, “Should I come here?” Follow me up. Follow me up. Follow me up.

lol..I would probably be doing that also if I was in their position.

So apparently Lagway sucks. Anyone watching the UA game? He also got injured from what I’m hearing.
Posted on 1/3/24 at 5:04 pm to finchmeister08
