re: NCAA Rumored to raise scholarship limits to 105

[quote]You vastly overstate the revenue for college athletics and completely ignore the costs for them. There are less than 20 ADs that turn a profit year in and out.[/quote]
You are vastly underestimating how much football programs make. Those ADs lose money because of title ix. Without it the f...

Nope. 4 seems to be the number. Ffrench is tops. Lockett is there but that one has faded. But with Lockett you never know. I think he plays games. ...

[quote]What are you crying about now?[/quote]
This is the part of the recruiting board I love. Speaking the truth is crying. Have to love it. Let me know when Pickett can cover both sides of the field and the slot. Not many successful teams play with 1 CB. We have a disaster of a CB room and need...
re: Why would Antoine choose to play in the ACC when he could show case his talents in the SEC
Posted by lsufanva on 7/21/24 at 1:41 pm
Because there is money to be had all across the country. Revenue sharing is a soft cap at best. The SEC laid out the model this week. That's where the 14-17 mil number came from. That's the football share of the revenue the football program brings in under the current TV contract. About 70%. The 30%...

They'll get them soon enough. Only Miami has a shot at the big 2 and that's fleeting. Doubt the Big 1g goes that far south. Imagine being a football power and having the 2 big boys prefer UNC, UVA, NC St etc. They'll la...

re: LSU lands Meadows according to Tom Lemming
Posted by lsufanva on 7/21/24 at 9:33 am
Correct. He's one of the innovators of the recruiting business. Likely on the Mt Rushmore of the industry. That said, he hasn't been relevant since Rivals took over the game and is a huge ND homer. Not surprised he showed his arse here. ND fans still can't accept they are a mid program with an elite ...
re: Where are we getting this money
Posted by lsufanva on 7/21/24 at 1:18 am
TV networks pay for it. The $ is accounted for through the earnings the football program brings in. The boosters supplement that. The change is that the SEC is going forward with doing away with title 9s bullshite of sharing money equally with sports that make no money. 70% split is to football going...

None of us can even prove the moon is real. We just see a light in the sky that people call the moon. None of us have "seen" it though. There once was a dinosaur called a Brontosaurus. Now there's not. Same kind of logic prevails when there'...

Other than conference perception, which only matters to fans, what's the difference between Miami going 9-3 and us going 9-3? Are we gonna lose Underwood, Pickett etc if we go 9-3? What kind of rationality ...

I believe they preferred Simon. They were heavily on him for months. He wanted to wait, we didn't as we believed Lindsey was equally good so we took Lindsey. Simon got his panties in a bunch, which i suspect was happening prior to taking Lindsey, and went all in on Texas and mudslinging. Personally ...

re: Anyone still think Brian Kelly and company can’t hang with the big boys in recruiting?
Posted by lsufanva on 7/19/24 at 6:18 am
Most were already under the assumption that we could. Many of the complaints were about willingness to hang not capability to hang. Huge difference. It's not coincidental that our surge and the TAF/BT joint venture began leaking out at the same time. As with most things in LA dealing with $, have to...
