Agree - or possibly drop that specific sport to D-2 or even club level? No worries about spreading out NIL related money among other sports and less overall expenses. But most certainly all of this will make it an easy sport to be cut.
Lockett coming?

I actually don't have a beef with the athletes making money off their talent instead of the schools and the NCAA. The problem I have is that college sports is becoming everything I dislike about pro sports. No loyalty to anyone. Just go to the highest bidder or whoever offers the best contract. Same as the pros. Paying a proven football star 350 million dollars is stupid. That is my opinion and nobody will convince me differently. As much as some may disagree, money isn't everything and it should never be.
Ha! I’ve been offering this service along with guided spring Turkey hunts for years for those that enjoy such adventures. Just for the fun of it…. Wild times if it could actually factor into a decision.
Maybe you and I should have a chat….
You know the deal my friend. Holler.
Yes it actually can. There are a number of schools who participate in D-1 in a sport but not all others. You just can't participate in two or more D-1 sports and still do it. A sport like wrestling is a prime example where a level may be changed above all others.
I'm not talking about Power 5 type schools, by the way. They will just out and out drop it.
Yes. A D-2 school can compete in one sport at the D-1 level but at D-1 school cannot compete in one sport at the D-2 level. You stated the later.
I stated what I think could happen. If a school chooses to currently participate at the D-1 level in wrestling but not in any others, they could drop back down to D-2. A Power 5 type school will simply drop the sport. In neither post did I say a D-1 (Power 5) school could drop to D-2 for a given sport.
A car dealership in Stillwater gave him a new truck i believe as an NIL deal.
to a kid just starting his JR year of hs.
these are the times we live in.

Kaden Proctor got a similar deal from a local dealership but that didn’t keep him home 😈
Yes - a D-2 school that may be particpating, or may want to participate at the D-1 level in one sport. That school may drop down to avoid the crap that is invloved trying to compete at the D-1 level. I don't really care what the guy I was responding to said or referenced in terms of a specific school or program. Again, I did not say a D-1 school would drop, ever. I'll make sure I am more specific next time. Don't confuse the use of the word "program" with "school."
45-70 can be and is used during shotgun season. My buddy has used one the last two years. Works very well on white tails. I hunt with guys (first season shotgun) shooting 350 legend, 450 BM, 458 Socom, 45-70, 360 Buckhammer, etc. Caliber rules arent the same as years ago.
Many bottle neck cartridges are legal now as well. 2021 hunters were no longer limited to using straight walled cartridges. Its more specific to bullet diameter.
Should have spent that $$$ on a $25,000 gift card for mama to Prairie Meadows.
ISU did when they hired KJ.
Since they’ve made those legal, which I’m perfectly fine with(I built a .450), I wish they’d ban hammer drive hunting. It’s far from fair chase, ruining herds in certain populations, and even more so just plain dangerous.

And likely did for Dresser until Pollard helped get the two Cubans through admissions.
Take it to the hunting board.
Every board is the hunting board.
Huh? He’s a high school kid. That doesn't mean the hs is the entity giving away free money. You didn't know a high school aged kid could get NIL money. It’s a brave new world, eh? Strange times for sure.
I apologize for not understanding the workings of this NIL shit. I thought it had to be arranged by a school you were competing for. Everyone talks about colleges putting the packages together for theses kids, I guess they’re just being the voluntary middle man, but the kids could beat the bushes and do it all on their own. Learn something new every day😄
I didn’t mean that post as a put down. We’re all learning as they go. But I doubt the high school had anything to do with the process of getting a recruit a truck.
That is good new for me, I thought maybe oki state was somehow sliding him money in the form of that truck already. Hope he’s not toying with us with ulterior motive like Stevenson did with us this summer, just to get many viewers for his WWE debut to hear his future announcement. Probably could get him and Henkel into the lineup at the same time, Henkel looks like he has the frame to fill out more.
I’m guessing the truck is direct result of locals trying to get the kid to commit to local university. These days, donors apparently don’t have to keep those arrangements on the down low. Not sure what involvement OSU had with the truck in question. Probably just an effort by local booster?
I am in only if it helps land the kid!
My wife would leave me if I ever........ Hmmm where do I sign up???
That is what I am thinking!!! If you are a big time recruit just WOW!!!!
Why would they do this? What would be the benefit to them? I could see a big time Football player, but is a wrestler going to bring them anything in return? I am just not following the logic here, does the dealership write it off?
In football, I can see winning, putting 80K fans in the stands, brings in tons of people to the town etc.....
Cool. Coach just signed the papers to adopt me. Let me know when dad. 😂
Not sure if I have this correct but it seems most likely .

A 4-year full ride is worth $100,000+ for out of state. Definitely still worth something. Especially, considering it makes life easier. No U bills and or loans. And money coming in NIL is spending money now.
But a $50000-100000 scholarship is tax free whereas money or other items could be taxable.
