    yes thats what you're reading, though I for one wouldn't hang my hat on any of those figures yet. In the next year whats really what will probably come out with the NIL landscape. College football is big business and it's about time the athletes shared in the revenue.

    I love it man. Build up that defense. I thoroughly enjoyed our blur offense, but nothing beats a lockdown defense in my book. I LOVE a great defensive team.

    Damn Oregon killing it this morning. To think Dante Moore almost signed with us as well. He’s missing out

    Man, Uncle Phil opened up the checkbook for the Ducks today. Geez.

    We need him to open up the checkbook to buy this franchise now.

    So Phil offered 2 billion for the team. The Suns just sold for $4 billion. And Dwight Jaynes said the rumor is that Jody won't sell to Phil now.

    Did Dwight say she will not sell to Phil at any price? Rumors are they were targeting $3B.

    Did Dwight say why? and I think if the money was fair and around the same as other offers the nba will absolutely make her sell to Mr Nike. Every league has wanted Phil knight for years.

    That’s what they made the Maloof brothers do when they wanted to sell to Ballmer when they refused the current new owner

    Because it's highly likely that Phil launched a smear campaign against her right after he made the offer. There were several articles trashing her past. Most people think he was trying to pressure her into selling.

    Who’s to say he did that. I’m sure he knows that would have screwed his chances at buying the team which seems to be his goal

    Oregon's 5th 4*/5* flip of the day...

    For context: The only P12 teams to sign more than five 4/5* players are USC/Utah... Oregon has flipped that many in one day. Wild.

    They certainly seem to have made very good use of the NIL $$$ they had set aside for him that suddenly became available.

    Well, I did say I’m skeptical of a safety (in particular) getting 2m before even playing a down. QB… DL… a little easier to believe.

    But it’s also clear that things have changed. I forgot the numbers TAMU openly paid for that top ranked recruiting class.

    Ohio States coach, Ryan Day, asked for at least 10million (maybe more) to RETAIN players or they’ll hit the transfer portal.

    (I also think this is where the whole “tampering” thing comes in to play and why this whole NIL thing will continue to develop.)

    Oregon still hasn't received a Letter of Intent from Bowen or Dickey... rumblings that Peyton's Mom is not happy with his choice.

    Parents like that can fuck right off. I would never tell my kid where to go to school.
