Maybe I’m starting to. Tend to agree you do all of what you listed. Perhaps I’m reading condescension and arrogance where only levity is intended. If so, my bad. Just never been fond of folks acting superior, not even on my home board, where humility goes to die.
Naw. You ain’t all wrong.
I would pay to watch that. Maybe AOC vs MTG in mud?
Yeah, I wasn’t buying what he was trying to sell. It seems to me like you’re pretty careful to not burn bridges with coaching staffs.
I’ve never heard him denigrate our coaching staff. Yes.
I would say the 2024 and 2025 recruiting classes might disagree but I am not an expert at all. They look light and we seem to be missing out on kids. Tons of reasons for that I guess but the Head Coach I hope has a plan.
I find myself doing that to much... need to be put in place once in awhile. Good for the ego
I think that for for a certain donator... could be wrong
In fact he sticks up for M* and Telford.... might be the only one that does
Even if he typed it, the context would probably more of sticking it to Iowa fans by mimicking what he’s heard here. But I can’t picture smalls putting something like that out there for public consumption.
No worries. I take none of this seriously. Just counterpunching, having a little fun with uppity, highbrow @SPOONER
, who’s just having fun himself. Really looking forward to Paris and the 6-gun we’re packing . . . with bullets from both camps.
But with our fans? Not so much.
The A&M Coach was long gone to Texas, his best friend from many many years is the AD at Texas...People are upset because he made this impassioned speech after they lost that basically said he would be at A&M forever. A&M knew when they hired this guy that his ambitions were with Texas, so much so that they had a buyout rate in his contract that Texas would have to pay A&M multiple millions more if he left A&M to go to Texas, as opposed to anywhere else...The Texas AD claims to have waited in a cemetery in College Station for the team to get back from the College World Series so he wouldn't be seen. He more or less stated as soon as the coach arrived home, the AD got him to get in the car with him. They drove around for an hour and struck up a deal. Then they beelined it back to Austin and got the contract signed at 745am, literally the morning after the College World Series. Coaches started the trend of heading to the highest bidder, transfer portal plus NIL allows the athletes to play the same game now legally (although everyone knows it's been happening well before NIL). College athletics is a dirty game behind the scenes, very little if any loyalty.
wrong.here is for the inevitable retort that those tweets don’t say real woods anywhere. this was the aftermath of the transfer news and the whole wrestling community was up in arms about it. people don’t forget…
@82bordeaux
this was from this year's NCAA's. nothing to do with Real/Iowa.
Is this new to you during this portal era? Teams in every sport are doing it. Wake up!
I never said it had anything to do with RealWoods. Im very aware of the context of your recording and your position at that time along with your walk-back in #2585 above. All good.
It's in play.I don't know if this is still in play but there was an injunction against the NCAA which allowed any NIL rep to contact any athlete, part of a roster or not. Before, NIL guys came into play once a transfer or recruit had been signed. This situation would still favor the school's bargaining position and could be considered unfair to the athlete. I've hear our guys get hit up quite a bit in the hallways at tourneys etc. Somebody smarter than me can tell us if this is in play or not.
Judge grants preliminary injunction over NIL rules
A federal judge has barred the NCAA from enforcing its rules prohibiting NIL compensation from being used to recruit athletes, granting a request for a preliminary injunction and dealing another blow to the association's ability to govern college sports.www.espn.com
the Little Rock thing was 100% 'new'. it literally happened 12 hrs before i recorded that, brainiac.
That is the case I originally referred to. The things I argued were “illegal” and, to me, skirted the rules, could be rendered moot once a decision is rendered.I don't know if this is still in play but there was an injunction against the NCAA which allowed any NIL rep to contact any athlete, part of a roster or not.

Seconded. Any word on the couple guys who are supposed to be coming?
I dont give a fvck when it happened. You act like you are clueless and have no idea whats going on in college sports these days. There basically aren’t any rules. 🤡
