I find it curious how people always want to point out the high-paid coaches when they're talking about how coaches are, but they seem to want to forget what a lot of these coaches go through to get up in positions. You look around a lot of the assistant coaches, and they've been at five or more schools (some many more) working their way up. And when's the last time you saw a player get fired during the season and told not to come back, no matter how badly they screwed something up. So again, you can say that coaches make all the money, and people talk about them being greedy, but with all due respect, when you have college players hitting the portal every year, their level of greed is just as high, if not higher than the coaches. I am all for paying all the players but then letting them cover their expenses, and even though many of you will not agree with it, I 100% believe there should be no more student fees for any university that is paying players. The students should not have to put out money to compensate athletes if there's enough money in athletics to pay players.
Hopefully, this is a case where they can tell these players that we are here because we believe in you and then build on that relationship to get some of them to Denton
Eleven players from SHSU's defense are in the portal. Ten of them were in their 2-deep as recently as the Jacksonville State game. Really hope some of them are locks to come over because otherwise I'm not sure who they're recruiting by coaching their bowl.
😂. Every time I read something I am completely perplexed by the pearl clutching and bitching about NIL. Jimmy Johnson made 1 million per year and settled for 3.9 million as a back to back Super Bowl Champion Head Coach.
That is high class garbage take when looking at Jimbo Fisher. Texas A&M significantly better without him coaching but walks away with money Jimmy Johnson only dreamed of. How about some of these coaches and Administrators who have been taking far more value out of the system than they generated payback some of that money? Ironic NIL became a thing the same year Fisher signed a 10 year $95 million contract. Seems to so many everyone is cool for everybody in college football except the players being mercenaries.
Now if you want put 50% of all players NIL income into a collective pot distributed to all players (on all FBS level teams) that actually record snaps (minutes) in games, then let’s discuss. These guys aren’t playing against air.
