cool promo idea... Im not sold on the spread being the fix all for every aspiring program, though I agree its certainly exciting to watch.

I dont really care for Baylor using a similar all-green uniform and helmet.

I think maybe you're missing the point. The spread is not the "fix" as in winning lots of games and going to the BCS championship. It IS however the "fix" for boring game play and attracting more fans and more $$$. $$$ is the fix for aspiring programs that is why the spread is so attractive. At least IMO...

Im pretty sure thats what I just said. Talented athletes will beat a gimmicky a offense most of the time. Case in point, OU and Texas' defensive dominance over Tech. Now, what brings the players and money into a program? Exciting schemes, WINNING GAMES, etc. I didnt say it couldnt help (it has certainly woken Tech and their alumni) I just said it wasnt a fix-all.

They are going to the spread and recieved a verbal from the Kinnee kid.  Here is the promo:

Baylor's announcement of a verbal from G.J. Kinne should come as no surprise to anyone. That commitment was assured when G.J.'s dad, and former standout Baylor linebacker, Gary Joe Kinne, was hired this season as Baylor's Linebackers Coach.

I'd be inclined to believe that G.J. would have committed to attend Baylor no matter what offense they chose.

Nice. Our school needs an ad like that...I'm thinking of JT lining up with horses at a race, maybe even with a tiny little jockey on his back...

As a matter of fact, a big static cling on the side of the library, showing you the start of a 40-yard stretch, then at the end of that stretch, another cling, with JT, midstride, showing his 40-yard time, advertising the games/game times/etc. Or something like that on the sidewalks...with a different sidewalk ad dedicated to our fastest players.

To promo our offense I'm thinking of the ad from several years back where the two mechanics are working on a car, beating on an engine with a mallet laughing like a couple of cavemen, then it flashes back to the same two guy's when they were in preschool and you see them beating a round wooden peg into a square hole and the other kid is yelling, "keep hitting it, it'll go in!".

Wonder who's laughing at the Bears now.  I said it a couple months ago, but I'll say it again:  I would not be surprised to see the Bears in a bowl this year.

Kinne Talks Trash To The Ags

“It’s becoming earlier and earlier,” Baylor head coach Guy Morriss said Tuesday. “And when you’re trying to catch up like we are, we’ve got to be the first ones on these kids’ doorsteps.”

Man I wish DD's attitude was like this.

“If they want to come to my house, I can show them all the offers I’ve gotten,” Kinne said. “And you can tell the A&M fans, ‘Wait till Saturday.’ Tell them that. We’re not going to have any problems with A&M.”

love it. I guess it goes without saying, thats the kind of attitude Id like to see in all of our players!

To be fair, that flag has been flown by BU fans since the late 90s.

I'm not saying some UNT fans didn't start using it first (probably so), but this is certainly not the first time a BU fan has flown one.

It is the first time I've seen it for sale in the BU bookstore though.

In regards to the uniforms...the uni's themselves are actually throwbacks to the 1970s. The green helmets are new, of course, but Morriss introduced the two helmet system at Kentucky before he got to Baylor, so I think that's just his thing.

      Another NIL Coaching Casualty

      Please move if needed, posting here as it's related to NIL and is probably more applicable to football than basketball. Miami basketball head coach is resigning. The following are quotes that should be of concern to any fan but especially some of your blue blood programs. What happens when you can no longer outspend your peers so your legendary coaches leave? Saban was the most name worthy retirement but there's been plenty others and here's another big name leaving. NIL will be reeled in when the big money boosters lose their favorite coaches, no longer see the wins on their records, and see they can no longer just money-whip their way to success. From the Miami Herald: “At this point, after 53 years, I just didn’t feel that I could successfully navigate this whole new world that I was dealing with because my conversations were ridiculous with an agent saying to me, `Well, you can get involved [with a prospective player] if you’re willing to go to $1.1 million, and that would be the norm.” ... “What shocked me beyond belief was after we made the Final Four just 18 months ago, the very first time I met with the players, eight of them decided they were going to put their names in the portal and leave. “I said, `Don’t you like it here?’ They’d say, `I love Miami, it’s great.’ But the opportunity to make money someplace else created a situation that you have to begin to ask yourself, as a coach, what is this all about?’’ He added that he tried “every which way” to make things work, but “last year was a disaster”, and this year was not going well, either. He felt the new players were not buying in as transfers had in years prior." https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/college/acc/university-of-miami/article297597538.html

      Breaking: Cash McCollum Enters Portal

      Bringing in Poffenberger, signing Jimerson and Mestemaker returning, Cash probably realized he wasn’t going to get any playing time here soon. Best of luck to him.
