Syracuse/UNLV is an interesting one to track, see how UNLV does in week 2 of their new QB replacing the quitter

“The NCAA fully supports college athletes profiting from their NIL, but unfortunately there is little oversight or accountability in the NIL space and far too often promises made to student-athletes are broken,” the NCAA said in a Wednesday statement without specifically mentioning Sluka or UNLV.

Well maybe if the controlling organization (now, who could that be???) hadn't ceded all power to a few schools and conferences, then maybe there would have been some oversight and accountability.

Moneyball at Sam Houston: How the Bearkats are thriving despite the 'least amount of NIL' in the FBS - CBSSports.com

Thanks for the article link!

I found this quote regarding NIL interesting.

Quote

Sam Houston's NIL money doesn't really go to transfers. Keeler remembers talking to three transfers on a visit when the portal opened last winter. They wanted to negotiate money. He told them: "You're at the wrong place." Those NIL dollars, the few Sam Houston has, goes to leaders on the team who meet academic and social requirements.

It essentially points out that current NIL has NOTHING to do with "Name, Image, Likeness".  NIL was intended to let the players have a portion of the revenue generated by the use of their "N,I,L".  The fact that there are pre-existing pools of money and that others have control over how this money is allocated shows that this is absolutely not the case.

Houston started to look like Fritz ball tonight. Cougar now has 2 wins. Raise a toast CQ and savor the evening.  Good win over Sonny. Fort Worth looks bored directionless.

      Just for fun

      So, I was thinking. There’s a high probability Chandler is going to get poached next year, unfortunately, so I wanted to see your prediction on who our qb will be next year. Just because it’s an off week and this is all in fun, my ideal scenario is to keep Morris.(both of them) plus, if one of us turns out to be right we get bragging rights!! lol That being said, I could see a certain former Guyer qb, that has recently lost his starting job, come back home and spend a season with the new qb whisperer!! That’s right, Jackson Arnold. predict away! cheers fellas!!

      The Answer is Marketing....

      We all love Grant. Think it was a typo. Tough name for GM and auto correct. I don’t know about the dormant alumni. They seem like lost causes to me. A buddy last weekend who never goes to a UNT game though a grad, was happy to send me pics from smu where he went to see his beloved Noles. No connection to FSU but he was there. He doesn’t disparage UNT but doesn’t care either. And the silly alums on sports radio apologize for speaking about UNT or giving an update about a G5 team. Spineless. Go after the young families moving into Denton. Make it the Mean Green Village Fairgrounds for 7 Saturdays a year with different themes. October fest, funnel cake fan fest, food drive game in November, summer sizzling barbecue bonanza for a September game. Have a Mariachi Mean Green crew like they do at Texas Rangers. The mariachis on mariachi Monday walk around the concourse in their Ranger red outfits smiling taking pictures with fans. Then they play a few sets on the big screen and boom you get a unique group of peeps you look forward to seeing. The coolest thing this season was all their close ups of their championship rings as they strung their instruments. Could be a nice link to our Denton Hispanic community. Do some fun things the community would come out to and get them into the stadium. Jared is doing some creative things this season. Like Oktoberfest and tickets and tee promotion. Sellout game push and more to come for November. Keep creating interesting unique and different because UNT definitely is creative unique and interesting. GMG

      Portland Watching Party?

      I don’t think you’re going to feel in danger or anything. I go out most evenings when I’m there. It just isn’t that lively since so much has been shuttered. If the weather is nice, though, it might be livelier than I’m thinking and I’m told the city has been taking an effort the last few months to clean up the sidewalks. The area around Powell’s books (which you definitely should go to) is usually pretty busy and touristy. There are several really good brewpubs nearby and a dive bar or two. Feel free to DM me if you want any recommendations.
