We have had a bit of a signing period the last couple of days.  Take a look at the player list above...we are up to twelve (12) signed players now and several more are checking schedules.  Lots of room...lots...for more players.  So, come on folks.....jump on in here.  You know this is fun and it certainly goes a long way to support some worthy student-athletes.

OK, we are now sitting at twelve players.  We do need several more to make it more fun and generate more interest.  I know we are a bit out, but not as far as it seems...it is April 1st...so really only March and a week to go in February.

Lots of players from the past games have not said anything as yet and there are others who have indicated they would like to play but have not been able to in the past, so look at your schedules and let us know.  You can post here, in the Save The Date Thread or you can PM me.

Just got word of another player sign-up....John Hopkin is on the roster!  Got to send a big thank you out to MeanGreenCoach2 who told his friend, John, about our game and what it is trying to do.  After hearing where the funds go John signed up and made a bit of an "extra" donation as well above the playing fee.

Many thanks...we are going to bust right through this Seven for Seven goal with help like this! ?

When are we going to cap the players? 

At the stated final conclusion date of player registration as announced in another thread.

We are still below our average number of players, so everyone will get all the playing time they want.  You will be coaching a squad again this year...playing time up to you on your squad.  Seems to me it has worked out just fine over the last six years.  Will this year as well.  Every player means more scholarship dollars, more possible half-time mid-court shots, more silent auction donors and more concessions purchased....which, means, and why we do this....more scholarship dollars for these great student-athletes.  Appreciate your participation as well.

      Two more home games before students are back, then hopefully the athletic department is going all out to try to compete with last year's record-breaking numbers.

      Auburn warns of potential ticket price hike ahead of revenue-sharing model

      In traditional professional football, when teams pay players and have a losing season, the teams still make $$$ and turn a profit. Thus they can afford to continue to pay players. In today’s college football, when boosters pay players NIL and the team has a losing season, the boosters lose money AND they don’t get to experience the joy of being associated with a winner. Will those boosters keep donating NIL? Do you have to find new boosters? Don’t you eventually run out of boosters? Just don’t see how this NIL model is sustainable. Rich people didn’t get rich by losing money and I don’t see how you can keep asking them to do that via NIL. The revenue sharing model WILL work and it will be interesting to see what percentage of revenue is ultimately allocated to labor. The NBA gives 51% of gross revenue to players. The other major professional leagues give less. But why would colleges give players anything close to that? College players are infinitely replaceable. People root for their school and as a consequence of that, root for the players competing for that school. But if the Top 100 players in college football disappeared overnight, would the popularity of the sport suffer at all? I don’t think it would. Offer the players minimum wage, make them sign binding contracts with buyouts and non-competes (assuming you can still enforce those: that is another rabbit hole). NIL will still exist but won’t be as big of a deal because of the contracts and buyouts. If a players thinks he is too good for this system, they can start their own football league or wait until they are eligible for the NFL. Why wouldn’t this work?

      I don’t know how much they care. It’s like monopoly money. Many of them are just borrowing from Uncle Sam and hoping they don’t have to pay it back.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Did you believe Alabama would be uncompetitive vs Oklahoma? What about OSU vs Tennessee? Did you think TCU would get absolutely nuked by Georgia a few heads ago AFTER beating #4. Michigan? Blowouts happen every year in we den the 4 team playoff. They mean little.
