Gross. Would have been a monster pick up. I knew when he left town without committing we were likely toast.
Not overpaying the right guys. Fail.

Cant let him leave campus unsigned.Quote:

Who are the primary NIL decision makers?
Jean Swindoll and David MurrayQuote:

That's exactly what we're doing now. If what we are isn't "shitty", what is it? We are actually PAYING for shitty now....I'm offering a FREE shittiness in exchange for a shot every 4-5 yearsQuote:

We ended up in a bowl game after TV people talking us up this year. We actually have momentum heading into 2026.Quote:

It is simple. Fire Lebby and his Volkswagen clowns and bring in the entire Ferris State Coaching Staffcand have all of their starters follow them to Starkville!
Lol man the golf comparison is spot on. I tell myself that every time I play.Quote:

Yeah man but we only got the bowl because every team that was actually eligible declined it. I'm not complaining about it but it's not like we truly deserved it. And it reared it's ugly head come gametime.Quote:

I was saying we are already shitty. So why pay for shitty, when we can be shitty for free and stockpile NIL money. Look, I was being somewhat not serious when I first posted it....but it's not all that far fetched. And if we tried it and failed, we'd probably be in about the same spot we already are, so what do we have to lose?
I been saying this since NIL started. Half teams out there are wasting money and getting nothing for it. Same players just we are poorer for it.Quote:
