Ohio State blew $20M on a Roster that Finished 4th in the B1G

They spent $25m to retain their talent. Thatā€™s a difference of going out and getting talent. Most of that NIL was on OSU starters.

Fant has made 40 mil so far in the League. Think how much Monistat you could buy with that.

Your posts, as usual, are completely useless.

At least you are consistently stupid and we all know what to expect.

Go get some Preparation H; that should help with our ingrown anal grayhairs & hemorrhoids
 
You have never heard the phrase "must really be smarts". Amazing!!! When you ridicule another poster, you are only setting yourself up for ridicule. Wise up.

Actually, you need to wise up. Did I ever say Ohio State would not win the national championship? Of course not; any WISE PERSON can see that.

Let's look at what I actually did say, shall we?

51 days ago, on December 1, 2024, I started this thread titled "Ohio State blew $20M on a Roster that Finished 4th in the B1G." And that was 100% true; OSU finished 4th in the conference. Perhaps I should have used the word "SPENT" instead of "BLEW."

51 days ago, that $20M Ohio State roster had resulted in:

* a devastating home loss to Michigan

* a 4th place finish in the B1G conference

* no conference championship game appearance

* the #8 seed in the CFP

* Ryan Day on the hot seat

And a wise person like myself says congratulations to Ohio State for circling the wagons & going on a 4 game winning streak and winning the National Championship.

A stupid person would now reply to this post with more nonsense.

Final B1G Standings:​

Penn State8-111-1

Ohio State7-210-2
 
And yet, still could walk away with the Natty.

True; they could. And if they do, they will earn it. ;)

With the expanded playoff, #6 ranked Ohio State likely would have to beat these 4 teams in order to win the National Championship:

#7 ranked Tennessee (at home)
#1 ranked Oregon (who got a bye) in the Quarterfinals
#3 ranked Texas in the Semifinals
#2 ranked Georgia in the National Championship

If they ended up beating all 3 SEC teams that are in the field that would really be something and would make a huge statement for not only tOSU but for the B1G.

CFP Final Rankings:

(Teams in BOLD made the 12 team field)

1. Oregon (13-0)................1st Round Bye
2. Georgia (11-2)...............1st Round Bye

3. Texas (11-2)
4. Penn State (11-2)
5. Notre Dame (11-1)
6. Ohio State (10-2)
7. Tennessee (10-2)
8. Indiana (11-1)
9. Boise State (12-1)..........1st Round Bye
10. SMU (11-2)

11. Alabama (9-3)
12. Arizona State (11-2).....1st Round Bye
13. Miami (10-2)
14. Ole Miss (9-3)
15. South Carolina (9-3)
16. Clemson (10-3)

38 days ago I wrote that with the expanded playoff, #6 ranked Ohio State likely would have to beat these 4 teams in order to win the National Championship:

Hopefully no one is outraged with my opinion on Georgia 38 days ago!! ;)
 
I just wonder what Tim, Phil, LeVar & Kirk could do with a $20M roster ;)
Punt a lot...

Stupid post 50 days later.

This thread was started exactly 50 days ago. At that time, a $20M Ohio State roster had resulted in:

* a devastating home loss to Michigan

* a 4th place finish in the B1G conference.

Congrats to Ohio State for circling the wagons & going on a 4 game winning streak and wining the National Championship.

Did you say OSU wasted $20 million?

Of course I didn't say/write the word "wasted." Any wise person can see that 51 days ago I wrote "Ohio State blew $20M on a roster that finished 4th in the B1G."

You agree that they finished 4th in the B1G, correct?

And, again, any wise person can see that I wrote that maybe I should have used the word "spent" instead of the word "blew."

So, in conclusion, you have nothing but fake outrage for me perhaps using the wrong verb 51 days ago.
 
From a quick google search:

According to recent reports, the University of Oregon is estimated to have spent around $20 million on NIL deals, with some sources claiming it could be even higher due to the significant influence of Nike co-founder Phil Knight, who is heavily involved with the Oregon athletic program.

Should they have used the word "blown," instead, like I did in my thread title, since $20M is a LOT of money AND Oregon didn't get past the quarterfinals of the CFP?? Or does the verb used (spent/blew/blown) really not matter?? LOL

And speaking of that $20M figure being a bit low, another story said that Oregon had a $23 million budget.

Well you would be the expert on "blowing" so you decide.
 
Actually, the fact that you and others are attempting to turn something into what it is not is overtly disingenuous.
You can continue to shovel yourself deeper but subsequently attempting to equate ā€œblowingā€ money and ā€œspendingā€ money is indeed shifty and dishonest, especially because of the provocative way you used that word in the thread title.

My thread title was provocative?

Let's be clear. You are wrong and you know it. And, actually, it is you who is being shifty and dishonest.

Youā€™re digging a very deep hole for yourself.

Got any more bullshit to spew or are you done with your nonsense?
 
Texas spent 26 million to finish second in the SEC and get a Fiesta Bowl trophy. Money better spent? I bet Notre Dame spent some dollars for no conference title but RESPECT. They're private so do they list their NIL? At least 20 million according to this. Oregon is listed at 23 million.

 
OP jumped on the hot trends for attention and is now jumping on this new hot trend of revisiting his past bad perspectives to see how some parts of them still are, sort of, technically correct. All the Illuminati loved to make hay about losing to Michigan, but Ryan Day clearly had the bigger picture in mind.

And here all of us are, so this works.

I also read that Oregon-Phil Knight spent around $28 million but it wasn't let out like OSU's amount. Their QB Gabriel pulled in somewhere around $6 to 7 million

Is anyone surprised that clowns like these 2 are looking for attention & coming out of the woodwork 53 days later and trying to make something out of nothing?

Let me know if you 2 clowns are ok with this statement: Oregon blew $23M on a roster that only made the Elite 8 (quarterfinals) of the CFP.

The thread title 53 days ago, on Dec 1, 2024, was simply this: Ohio State blew $20M on a roster that finished 4th in the B1G

* 53 days ago, these 7 posters gave the thread and the use of the word "blew" a thumbs up: @JerseyCityHawki , @TXHCHawk , @EvilMonkeyInTheCloset , @HawkBall23 , @Hawk_4shur , @TampaHawkfan and @kwik44

* 53 days ago not beating Michigan at home as a HEAVY FAVORITE sure didn't look like money well spent.

* 53 days ago a 4th place finish in the B1G sure didn't look like money well spent.

* 53 days ago not playing in the B1G Championship game sure didn't look like money well spent.

* 53 days ago Head Coach Ryan Day needed 24 hour, 7 day a week police protection after the Michigan loss (on Nov 30). It's pretty clear pissed off Buckeye fans thought the $20M was not well spent, too.

* I have said this before. I guess I should have used the word "spent" instead of "blew" to prevent clowns like these 2 from coming out of the woodwork and attempting an "I told you so."

* And lets be real: spending $20M feels like blowing a lot of money if your bets don't pay off. And at the time, 53 days ago, things sure did not look good for Ohio State.
 
I don"t feel like it is my place to judge how other people spend their money. If OSU's fans want to donate their money to football players, it is their choice to do so. 20 mil doesn't move the needle much to me. It is a business expense.
People posting things like "OSU blew 20 mil on a team that finished 4th" is something someone with a serious case of penis envy would do.

Hemorrhoids acting up again, dumb ass?

You clearly are not very bight but if you are gonna pick a fight over a verb used in a thread title, you should make sure you have more than a 1% chance of winning that fight.

It's amazing how me using the word "blew" instead of "spent" 54 days ago in the thread title caused clowns like you so much angst.
