  1. Yes, that's what the tweet said. I was just saying I wonder if they started any work without a contract signed. I know if we've worked with a client before, we'll do some upfront work knowing that the client will eventually sign the contract, but we don't do stadiums so who knows.
  2. I thought the design firm had been selected and they were currently working. If no contract has been signed yet, I wonder how much work has actually been done.
  3. You're talking about boosters paying money to a player and an NIL compensating a player for some type of service.
  4. Yeah, Outlaw mentioned that before. It was all BS. There was no way USF boosters paid out $350k and if they did, it would have been a giant violation. Not worth the loss of scholarships and punishment from the NCAA.
  5. I think he meant the "payment" is the free fishing on a charter boat. Someone is donating time/money to take them out fishing on a charter boat. They said it's not always about the money, but experiences too. Now, I guess you charter a bigger boat and take some of the collective members too for a meet and greet and then you can pay the players to fish. I just listened to the whole thing and it helped me understand a little better how it works. Players have to do something to be compensated. They can't just hand stacks of cash to a player.
  6. I think the recording is on Grothe's twitter if you want to listen to it. NIL Discussion
  7. Correct, it's a separate entity, but it is still an amount of money going to the players attending that school. I think something came out last season about how SMU's NIL was around $57,000 per player for football and basketball, but I could be wrong.
  8. You would think most schools would be releasing some type of statement so interested recruits could compare the amounts. If I have free time later, I'll look around.
  9. Don't want to burst the bubble, but this isn't a new thing. Scott offered lots of 4 and 5 star guys who never gave us a second look. Look at the USF offer list on 247. Where we are right now, very little NIL money, no OCS, lower conference, rebuilding year, new coach, we have a better shot of landing Deion as coach than this guy ever playing for us.
  10. offer number 47.....wow..... guess who offer 46 was from?? Colorado.....
  11. Yes, he sounds like he has his stuff together. When he spoke at his press conference yesterday he said his staff was all ready assessing team needs. I think when he gets back from the awards ceremony, he'll be hitting the recruiting trail / transfer portal for areas of need. Definitely a head-start from where Scott was.
  12. The USC and Texas fans started calling him "3rd and Grantham" because of his head-scratching delayed safety blitzes on 3rd down that never got close to the qb....but at this point, any defense is better than what we had....
  13. It's an accomplishment just to be nominated. Sounds like we have the right guy steering the ship.... aren't you glad I didn't say driving the bus??
  14. Thanks! I've been hitting refresh on their website for the last 20 minutes....
  15. Deion hiring Taggert at Colorado. You can't make this stuff up.
  16. I really need to step away from the keyboard, I'm starting to feel optimism and it's too early to start feeling that way yet. Maybe after signing day and we fill some holes on defense.
  17. It sounded like he had this guy in mind as soon as he was offered the head coaching position. I'm hoping he sees something in this guy's defensive coaching style that complements the offensive scheme he's going to run.
  18. I'd be curious to see where his defenses ranked in takeaways. With a quick scoring offense, you aren't going to be able to shut out people because the defense will be on the field a lot, but if you can force a few turnovers and capitalize on them, it makes the other team more one-dimensional.
  19. And if on offense, they can get the pieces for the system, I think the goal is scoring more than 30 a game. I'm fine with high scoring nail-biters....Oh, I yearn for the good ole days of competitive football.
  20. Can you imagine our record if we could make a stop on 3rd down this season??
  21. I'm not going to trash the guy before I do some research. How long was he at Texas? I assume you need some time to get your system up and running. Anyone is better than what we had and we probably weren't getting a top DC from another program.
  22. Wasn't this one of Michael Vick's aliases when not using Ron Mexico?
  23. In before the lock. Love him or hate him, he will have the quickest turnaround with the large amount of talent he can bring in.
  24. He said in the press conference this was a guy who he tried to get 2 other times and couldn't and finally got him this time so I assume no one currently with Tennessee.
