ETA: First 2 seasons at one school so you can actually experience campus life and see if you like the place. Limit it to 2 free transfers without sitting out plus the grad transfer rule. It still wouldn't be the same as it used to be, but at least we wouldn't have these ridiculous situations where a guy plays at 6 different schools and never actually gives himself a chance to grow as a player or enjoy the college experience.
Good points and I generally agree. The only thing I'd do different is limit it to ONE free transfer w/o sitting out. They could still transfer a SECOND time if they've graduated. That might encourage some to graduate when they otherwise wouldn't.

What happens to the players that dont find a school? No way all the kids that enter from every school across the country find a new place to play. What happens to those kids? Their football career is just over?
IIRC, 40-50% of those in the transfer portal don't find a new home and end up out of college football.

Probably so, but it seems like the UN process would introduce extra layers of corruption.

So when the UN distributes the money there's less corruption??
I don’t know what we are arguing about. I don’t want the UN involved and I think it’s a bad idea to NOT directly oversee aid. What’s the question again?
I'm not arguing. I'm trying to understand your position. I suggested bypassing the UN would provide more money directly to the recipient. I took your response to mean there'd be more corruption when money is given directly to the recipient instead of going through the UN.

If the U.S. wants to supply aid somewhere this should be the only way and there should be an independent non corrupt entity to do so.
Why can't the US donate world aid money DIRECTLY to the recipient instead of going through the UN. I'm sure a lot of money gets wasted and diverted to non charitable causes once the UN gets its hands on the donation.
re: OL Ory Williams plans to enter the portal
Posted by TigerOnThe Hill on 12/28/25 at 9:50 pm to friendlyobservation
I've been worried about so many OL leaving, but after watching a Matt Moscona show last week, I'm more at ease. My simplified version of his 25 min podcast:
The OL underperformed this season. However much NIL was invested in the OL, it did not match the performance. The OL who are declaring for the transfer portal are doing so because:
1. They've been told to find a spot w/ another team.
2. They've been told to expect a drop in their NIL for next season.
3. They're trying to get more NIL from a different team.
Moscona describes building a college roster as being akin to building an NFL roster. If we're going to invest NIL money in OL to upgrade, some of that money may come from OL that were overvalued in the '25 season. From the current roster, I just counted 10 guys who are returning thus far (not including Moore). Five have declared for the portal. Thompson is out of eligibility. We signed 2 in the early period. So far we're down net of 4 guys. I think we invest big in the portal and get 4-5 OL. Numbers wise, that would put us pretty close to where we were this year (as long as we don't lose a lot more).

I totally agree with you about players wanting to go where they can get immediate playing time. The fact, however, is that there are more players chasing that playing time role than there are quality opportunities for them, with quality being the critical consideration. Someone has to decide if waiting a year at a real opportunistic location is more important than getting on the field "anywhere". Its up to our coaches to help the candidate figure that out.
Lots of good points. A problem is that while many of these young kids agree they may need time to develop into a starter, most think it'll be the OTHER guy who needs to develop. :banghead: I'm confident our coaching staff is better than most in giving the player good counsel.

I have a few more questions.
1) What do y'all do when you are sitting/driving your vehicle? Do you take the handgun/holster out? This seems like the most uncomfortable.
I usually carry my holsters at 4 o'clock. If driving more than a short distance, I move the holster to 3 o'clock where it's more comfortable. Both the holsters in my pics are easy to move like this.
2) Would you take a one on one or a group class?
All of my classes have been a group. Take whichever you prefer.
3) What is the distance for the live firing? I have access to an outdoor range I could practice on whenever it warms up some.
It depends on the state and type of certification.

1) Do I want a laser sight on it?
I've never carried w/ a laser or dot sight.
2) What is considered concealed (under a coat or shirt)?
Anything out of sight.
3) Where could I get a concealed carry permit for several states?
As mentioned by others, just check to see what states your state has reciprocity with.
4) Should I carry concealed or open carry)
I've been carrying 15-20 years, but I've never intentionally carried open. I seen no advantages and a lot of disadvantages to open carry as many have mentioned.
4) What type of holster for concealed carry and where to carry on my body (hip/back/etc)?
I started w/ inside the waistband, but evolved quickly to outside waistband carry. Nowadays I mostly cc an Sig P365 and less frequently a Kimber Micro 9. When clothing doesn't allow OWB carry, I pocket carry a Kahr CW380
Sig iin Ronin Custom Leather Okami
Kimber Micro 9 in Ronin Lether SW Special Snap On.
