  1. I assumed that the OP posted a combination of two different items in order to point out the issue. One was the post with CJ having the #12 and the other was from the bio of AS.
  2. One of 3 things is going on here: 1) It's not completely certain that he's getting #12, so it may not matter 2) The ADept knows about the AS situation and either doesn't care or has decided it's been long enough to move on 3) The ADept does NOT know about the AS situation and doesn't realize this is possibly an issue. If it's 1, then nothing to get upset over yet. If it's 2, then we kinda' deserve an explanation but whether you accept their reason is a personal choice. However, if it's #3, then that's a bad sign that incompetent people are running the show.
  3. That's because they base it on PROFIT, not REVENUE. THAT is my point.
  4. What's with the idea of "revenue" sharing? I doubt any business in the country provides revenue sharing with its employees, but given the recent trend in poorly educating students on such concepts, I guess I'm not too surprised that the athletes expect it to work this way. In the real world, if something like this is offered to employees, it's PROFIT sharing. So, in this case, the players need to cough up their share of the loss, i.e. about $531k. https://meangreensports.com/documents/2024/1/11/2023_NCAA_Financial_Report.pdf
  5. I suspect most of them are taking classes during the summer so they can also stay on campus and use the workout facilities. Picking up 12hrs every summer would be enough to keep most of them afloat. I suspect most of the hours for first and second year students will transfer to most places.
  6. As I posted the other day, when students start bringing lawsuits maybe that will be the straw that finally brings this disaster to a point of falling apart.
  7. The schools should sue the players that opted out. The bigger and faster we can make a mess out of this, the better. And now, with this, the next school should just show up and essentially not play, i.e. walk out on the field and fumble on the first play of each possession and then let the other team score. Make ESPN have to show that for 2 hours.
  8. You really shouldn't talk about Canadians that way.
  9. It's like they gave the job to 3 people and each designed 1/3rd of the whole thing.
  10. Maybe they left this big blank area for an eagle head to go on the other end of the wing section.
  11. Yeah, my first thought was that it looked like a cross between a strip mall and a Motel 6.
  12. Unfortunately, he eventually passed. ☹️ https://www.wxyz.com/news/fate-puts-diehard-detroit-lions-fan-from-texas-at-soldier-field-at-the-right-time-to-save-a-life
  13. Yeah, was going to suggest this one when I saw the thread title. I'm okay with it, but they've stopped doing the the clock reset that they used to do when the defense slowly substitutes. Several times I've seen the offense be down to less than 10 seconds before the ref moves away.
  14. Not sure how many times #1 occurs during a game/season, so don't know how much impact it would have. It is an odd that the rule exists as it is. I guess there's still the exception of intentionally "downing a knee" which allows a player to end the play. But now, we'll start getting reviews of: - did the player first go down to a knee before getting hit? - did the player get touched while he was on the ground? Since your change is the way it is in the NFL, I guess we could look to that to see how often it occurs and how often it needs to get reviewed.
  15. It definitely shows.
  16. Morris said. "I think you saw the athleticism, the accuracy, the decision-making. I wouldn't be surprised if in 15 years, Drew Mestemaker's playing football still." The way things are heading, he could also simply be alluding to new NCAA rule changes that will allow players to remain in eligible forever.
  17. "This wasn’t easy, but my focus is on chasing my NFL dream." So, he's attempting to increase his chances of going to the NFL by NOT showcasing his abilities on the field? I guess he's gonna' go workout instead or maybe rest up for the combine. 🙄
  18. You might, but he won't be wearing Mean Green.
  19. As I said ALMOST the same either way. We LOST. The only 2 bowl wins had passing yards of 256 and (Derek Thompson) and 126 (Andrew Smith). Of course, in the latter one, Cincinnati had 5 turnovers. That might have contributed a bit to our 5pt win.
  20. Almost exactly the same common theme as when we didn't have those yards.
  21. He won't break the record for most TD passes (he would be tied if the receiver didn't go down at the 1ft line), but he will end up with the most yards. Would rather have gotten the win instead.

  22. Gotta' get another stop. Really need a turnover.
  23. Good stop by the D. Thought they were going to be able to keep pushing for the 1st.
  24. I hope the new DC starts working on tackling on DAY 1.
