Re: UMass to the MAC

What happens when a big booster pays a shitload of money to a kid that just can't play? Does the coach sit him? How about when NIL recipients get hurt? Are the boosters buying insurance to cover this? I would also imagine that with NIL money, a lot of redshirting goes out the window. What if the ki...

HANOVER, N.H. (AP) — The Dartmouth men’s basketball team voted to unionize Tuesday in an unprecedented step toward forming the first labor union for college athletes and another blow to the NCAA’s deteriorating amateur business model. https://apnews.com/article/dartmouth-union-ncaa-basketball-player...

Excited about playing you guys. This will give me a reason to justify to my wife traveling to an away game in Newark.
Got a good reason …… haha

You are right, Henny!
Good one!

Re: UMass to the MAC

Did you guys sign the CUSA GOR? Seems like Carribean Man has implied no on page 2 with a Joe fan credibility rating of slim to none. I just saw some new talk about Delaware to the MAC which didn’t make sense I reminded these rumor mongers that Delaware has already committed to CUSA….and was told th...

Re: UMass to the MAC

I seriously doubt NC A&T has the resources to compete in CUSA. It's highly questionable whether or not they can do so even in the Coastal. I love the idea of competing against HBCUs, but wouldn't Southern, Jackson St., Grambling, or FAMU be better able to compete at the FBS level? Yes and I’ve ...

Re: UMass to the MAC

Yes, but jd says that has been upped to $3 million. Inflation is hitting everywhere. :lol: If WKU does depart, I wonder if CUSA wouldn't go on a full court press to rope in current FCS rumored schools of interest like Missouri St., Eastern Kentucky, Tarleton St., etc.? https://www.news-leader.com/s...

Re: CFP Approves 5+7 Playoff Format

On the subject of recruiting, I’ve seen some stories reporting that the pool of HS football players is not growing but continues to shrink over the past few decades. Just slightly less kids playing HS football today than decades past Meanwhile, the number of teams moving up to FBS continues to grow,...

Re: Spring Game Info - April 19

Why limit spring practices to media and fans. Its a good chance to hype the program and get fans excited for the fall. Do we really implement that many new things in the spring especially with the same coordinators. Carty was spotted at HD yesterday loading up on a case of WD-40 to try to fix the “...

Re: UMass to the MAC

On top of the standard $3.0m exit fee. Or would they get the same $1.75M exit fee deal that Marshall, USM & ODU paid out? That amount was correct in 2022, but I was told it's gone up to $3m and that took place in 2023 when the GOR went into effect. When is Delaware officially in CUSA? Rumors an...

Re: UMass to the MAC

From one of the articles linked above “Conference USA is as transitory of a conference as there is in college football, while the MAC has been about as stable as any conference throughout history. Standing at 10 teams for the 2024 season, the CUSA is the smallest conference in the FBS— but it has h...
