Isn't that like 6 month old news? Is that why they couldn't block this year? Too much time down on 6th street partying it up with all that jingle?

Wait until the other position groups wonder why the OL is getting paid more than them... 100% guarantee this will not end well.

Why throw away your potential NFL career to lose to Kansas and have a coach that could relapse at any moment?

A poll is in order. When you read this statement you:

1. Spit your beer through your nose.
2. I was drinking coffee, not beer
3. Put down your copy of “Bridges for sale in Arizona” to read more of these informative posts.
4. Appreciated the OPs self depreciating humor.
5. I did nothing. I already knew all sips are delusional morons.

So... hopefully this helps turn that? I'm not sure what past draft results have to do with starting an NIL program that will begin in 2022

I think you missed the 10M Clark Collective that was launched last week that is to endow all of the Texas scholarship football players 100k next year.

This is on top of it plus NIL. And supposedly there is something even larger in the works with their bigger alumni that is the phase 3 of this

Now instead of losing to Kansas you'll get skulldrug by Vandy every year.

So has Texas, so has anyone who has gotten high level recruits for years on end.

the notion that people think their school, who recruits all these high level recruits, is/was squeaky clean, is always completely laguhable.

Yes, this 5-star who chose your school went there for 'free' over offers of hundreds of thousands of dollars from other schools "under the table"

A 10m fund giving 85 players 100k each is NOT an endowment.. it’s literally payments for one year. Unfortunately for those selling this as something it isn’t, other people can actually do math.

There were always going to be ways around that but this seems to be a straight forward blatant violation.


That's only an interpretation of Oklahoma law. That's not NCAA rules. And it's certainly not Texas law.

*Texas having a large amount of resources* - "you guys have more money and resources than anybody, and you're still not winning! We would do better if we had the same advantages y'all had!"

*Texas using said resources* - "you guys are such losers for having an idea like this!"

Damn, I mean at least make up y'all's minds
