Yep. And all the ones talking about it's just money. No it isn't. It's knowing they have a legit advantage and can not keep up in the NFL.
100% disagree here.

Stage 2:

Core idea:
Disrupt the core systems that keep the country functioning.

Main targets:

Economy

Foreign relations

Defense and internal security

Main effects:

Economic instability

Political gridlock

Diplomatic tensions

Loss of confidence in law enforcement and military


We are entering here. We do not have loss of confidence in LEO and Military. We do not have economic instability.

quote:

Stage 3:
What it looks like:

Violent unrest or revolution

Government collapse

Economic breakdown

Constitutional crisis or civil conflict

Main effects:

Power vacuum

Panic and confusion

Demand for immediate, drastic solutions


We do not have violent unrest/revolution nor a collapsed Gov.


quote:

Stage 4:

What it involves:

New political leadership or structure

Suppression of opposition

Restoration of order under a different system

Main effects:

Reduced freedoms in many cases

Consolidation of power

Long-term structural changes



100% not here.


I think the bigger question is how to reverse this.
Yuri Bezmenov was a former KGB informant and Soviet defector who became known in the West during the 1980s for his explanations of what he called “ideological subversion.” His most famous claim was that hostile powers try to weaken a society not primarily through military action, but through long-term psychological and cultural manipulation.

The goal is to change the values, beliefs, and perception of reality in a society so that:

quote:

-People lose confidence in their institutions
-Truth becomes relative or confusing
-Traditional norms are weakened
-Citizens become divided and distrustful



He said subversion would focus on:
quote:


1. Education

Undermining traditional curricula

Rewriting history or cultural narratives

Promoting ideological viewpoints over factual learning

2. Media and Culture

Encouraging pessimism or cynicism

Normalizing conflict and division

Promoting narratives that weaken national identity

3. Religion and Morality

Undermining traditional moral frameworks

Replacing them with relativistic or ideological systems

4. Social Institutions

Creating distrust in:

Government

Police

Military

Courts

Economic systems


We have almost completed this. Bezmenov claimed the end result of demoralization is:

-A person who cannot distinguish true information from false information.

He argued that once demoralized:

-Even factual evidence won’t change people’s beliefs

-Logical arguments become ineffective

- People become emotionally or ideologically driven



We are seeing all of this right now. You have people that can not look at a video and see what is actually on it due to their ideology. They are over the top emotionally driven.

In fact we may be entering the 2nd stage.

Miss seeing you post man. Welcome back.

Lots of nothing, no defined lists, the occasional email that raises a question (mostly about people we knew about) or hints at impropriety

I'm not saying that as they're studied more we won't learn new stuff, but I haven't learned any new narratives (just spotted evidence that aligns with narratives we already knew).


The issue with releasing everything is that it, by default, is literally verified and unverified things.
None. But he will get a TRO if he wants one. It's just a matter of judge shopping.
Exactly.

There always exceptions. Exceptions are not the norm.

quote:

People acting like there is some massive physical gap between a 19 year old and a 25 year old are stupid as shite.


There is. It's why the NFL won't even take them. A player must be at least three years removed from high school to be eligible for the NFL Draft.

Per medical field:

At 18, a male is essentially a "late-stage adolescent," whereas at 26, he has reached what scientists consider "Peak Physiological Maturity."

18-Year-Old: The brain is still "rewiring." The amygdala (responsible for emotions and impulses) is very active, while the prefrontal cortex (responsible for executive function and risk assessment) is still under construction.

26-Year-Old: The "brakes" are finally installed. A 26-year-old generally has better impulse control, long-term planning capabilities, and a more stable emotional baseline.


18-Year-Old: Many 18-year-olds still have open or "fusing" epiphyseal plates (growth plates) at the ends of their long bones. There is often still a small window for height growth or skeletal widening.

26-Year-Old: Growth plates are completely closed. However, this is the window where Peak Bone Mass is achieved. The bone density you build by age 26 is essentially the "bank account" of bone strength you will live off of for the rest of your life.

Medical professionals and scouts look at these two ages through very different lenses regarding injury risk, power output, and "game IQ."

18-Year-Old: They often have "clumsy" power. Their nervous system is still learning how to coordinate large muscle groups efficiently. They might be fast, but they lack functional density—the ability to hold their ground against a veteran.

26-Year-Old: This is the age of Peak Neuromuscular Efficiency. The brain can recruit more muscle fibers simultaneously. In sports like football or rugby, this is often called "Man Strength." A 26-year-old’s 165 lbs is almost always "harder" and more explosive than an 18-year-old’s 165 lbs.

V02 Max: Peak aerobic capacity (your heart's ability to pump oxygen) usually hits its absolute ceiling between ages 20 and 25.

The 18-Year-Old can go all day but often lacks the "top-end" strength to finish plays.

The 26-Year-Old has the perfect balance: they still have 95–99% of their max cardio, but they’ve added the muscle mass and efficiency to use that engine more effectively.

Medical imaging shows that the myelination (insulation of nerve fibers) in the brain is much higher at 26. In sports terms:

An 18-year-old reacts to the ball.

A 26-year-old anticipates where the ball will be. Their "processing speed" is higher because their neural pathways are fully insulated and established.




In short. You are wrong.

They are nothing more than pussies. Period. A wanna be that can not make it at the next level but knows he can beat 18 and 19 year olds.




That's literally what is happening to college sports. The differences in maturity and development of a 26 year old playing against 18 and 19 year olds is massive.

How much of a pussy do you have to be to demand that you are allowed to play any sport against kids? How sad is it that you have to do that rather than move on to the next level?

It's as bad as a grown arse man demanding that he gets to beat up on a woman by claiming to be a woman.

I say that as a grad of and fan of Bama who is allowing it too. Pathetic.

Frist, I think it's all BS. They have allowed this to go on for too long. So somebody is going to be made an example of to curb it taking place when it could have been done from the beginning.

But to answer your question the rules governing tampering have shifted significantly following the House v. NCAA settlement and the creation of the College Sports Commission (CSC).

Under the current framework, an infraction involving a student-athlete who has already signed a Financial Aid Agreement (FAA) and enrolled can be elevated to a Level 1 (Severe Breach of Conduct) violation if specific "aggravating factors" or systemic violations are present.

Under the 2026 College Sports Commission (CSC) and NCAA regulatory framework, this is no longer a "recruiting violation"—it is a severe breach of the House v. NCAA settlement terms.

The core rule that raises this to Level 1 is Bylaw 19.1.1 (Severe Breach of Conduct).

Offering $2 million to a student-athlete who has already signed an FAA and started classes is considered a direct inducement to transfer. Because the amount is substantial and the timing (after enrollment) shows a deliberate attempt to undermine another program's roster, it is classified as a "Severe Breach."


Like I said, they should have been enforcing this from the beginning and we would not be here. But enough people within the industry has complained and gone to the media that they are going to have to act. The question is what will they actually do.

Good Lord you’re stupid


Touchy aren't you. Where did I say LSU was tampering? Show your work.

Bet you can't.
I think it's been this way for a few cycles, but the money shows up through ACT Blue and more.


If Trump is stopping that... then it's important.
quote:

Get LSU’s name out ya mouth. They aren’t being investigated for tampering.


Show me where I stated tampering? You can't. LOL!

So sensitive.

According to a report from The New York Times, the DNC currently has $14 million on hand but is carrying $17.5 million in debt, leaving the party roughly $3.5 million in the red.

Party leaders are said to be “privately alarmed” by the state of the finances.

By contrast, the RNC is sitting on a $95.1 million war chest and reports no debt.


Will not link NYT...

It's existence is inextricably linked to the NCAA, as it was created in June 2025 through a joint agreement between the NCAA and the "Power 4" conferences (SEC, Big Ten, Big 12, and ACC) to manage the massive legal shift in college sports.

The CSC was established to be the "enforcement teeth" that the NCAA legally could no longer provide due to antitrust lawsuits.


Try again skippy. Not playing word games with you.

The Head Ball Coach is doing just fine.

Former Florida football coach Steve Spurrier addressed rumors about his health in a social media post on Friday, Jan. 16.

Spurrier, who turned 80 last April, said he underwent trial injections to help treat arthritis in his lower hip and back at Duke University Medical Center in Durham, North Carolina. It was a homecoming of sorts for Spurrier, who coached at Duke from 1987-89 and helped guide the Blue Devils to the 1989 ACC title.
I did. Maybe it's you that needs to read.

LSU. Well. Not really sure what is being suggested, but somebody(ole miss) turned them in.


The NCAA is investigating. It's clearly written in my link:
