First, irregardless is not a word and you sound stupid when you use it because if it was a word, it would mean the exact same thing as regardless.

Dumbass. He was making fun of djsdumbdawg for his use of the fake word.

So the problem will correct itself.

Cool.

But we're still gonna spank the NCAA's azz.

I like making Tennessee and a few select others examples. UT and Florida way over offered for mid quarterbacks. Their desperation can’t effectively become market making in the new ecosystem. Mid programs can’t crash the market with unsustainable contracts to achieve temporary success.

I’m sorry Bama fans are too poor to compete in the NIL era. Because your post comes off as whining more than it did in your head.

As your your hubris, Bama gets smack down historically every decade or so and is overdue.

Did the players visit the campus and meet with coaches on his dime?

I wouldn’t assume it’s okay. Clocks ticking on them.

If you've ever been to Miami you know who else is bankrolling things. It's the group we can't mention.

Hey everyone, did you hear Tennessee got a 5 star QB? First time in history anyone has ever done it.



Maybe bring in a top10 class, then talk shite?

It really isn't a fun offseason without some UT tomfoolery. Thanks for the entertainment. I feel another off-season trophy in the works.

You aren’t listening. They are quoting the changes to how collectives are viewed. Read Danny White’s statement on the matter. They found nothing associated to UT.

UT (and every school) is required to look over EVERY NIL deal signed by a student-athlete at their university. If those contracts are found to violate a NCAA regulation (for example, if a contract is made in a way that requires a player to attend only one college in order to get paid by the contract), the player must by suspended by the school.

If the school fails to do so, the school gets sanctions for not enforcing the rule.

The NCAA rule isn't specific like a state law is. It says simply this:

"22.01.2 Offers and Inducements. Name, image and likeness activities may not be used as an inducement for an individual to enroll or remain enrolled at a specific institution."

It doesn't talk about specific language in the contract that is prohibited. It says that NOTHING in the contract can be an inducement to enroll or remain at an institution.

While there may also be an attempt to get UT for "booster" stuff, it's foolish to take the AD's word that it's the only thing UT is getting dinged for. Especially since the reports that have come out are talking about "multiple violations" and that the violations are called "name, image and likeness violations". I posted a link to the actual NCAA bylaws on NIL, but I'll do it again here:

LINK

There are only TWO violations included for Name image and likeness.

1 - School fails to suspend a player who doesn't disclose a NIL deal.

2 - School fails to suspend a player who's NIL deal violates NCAA bylaws on NIL deals.

And for #2, this is what is stated must be in a NIL contract.

"(a) Include quid pro quo (e.g., compensation for work performed);

(b) Not be contingent upon initial or continued enrollment at a particular institution (see Bylaw 22.01.2); and

(c) Not be in return for athletic participation or achievement."

So you can see why I keep coming back to pay for play (b and c in the above text). If there is a NIL violation, it's going to be pay for play. And all reports are saying that this involves NIL violations, not just impermissable booster conduct.

You are skipping over what I said.

You wrote a whole book and ignored it.

I gave what you said a couple of sentences, which is all it was worth.

You think the NCAA charges are only about collectives being labeled as boosters. I pointed out that all the reporting on this states that there are MULTIPLE infractions, most of which are about NIL infractions.

I don't care about the booster thing. The NIL infractions are what I "wrote a book about". That's because they are what will fix the NIL mess we have now. The collective/booster thing is unimportant to college football as a whole and aren't NIL infractions. The NIL infractions are the game changer.

I'm sorry it's your team getting dinged, but enforcing the NIL bylaws on pay to play (basically the only infraction in the NIL bylaws) is going to fix the major issue with NIL.

You still are ignoring it. It’s completely covered by Danny White’s statement. This is SOLELY and issue with Spyre and how they are retroactively classifying collectives as a booster.
