I wonder if the A of A Football lets players put names like HeHateMe on their jerseys? I seem to recall Riley has a cabin in Texas he vacationed to in the summer. Don't ask me why someone would vacation in the summer in Texas, but I seem to recall reading that.

According to this article from 2012, he owned a farmhouse on 2 1/2 acres in between San Antonio and Austin in 2012. I wouldn't be surprised if he still owns it.

Other Coach’s in the league.

Spurrier in Orlando,Singletary in Memphis, Neuheisel in Phoenix,Marta in San Dieago,Erickson in Salt Lake City and Childress in Atlanta.

Head Coach’s could be expected to make as much as 500,000 per year on the sidelines.

The Always Atrocious Football League...coming soon to an abandoned building near you. Or I suppose it could be the Almost Archaic (Coaches) Football League.

Question for the board

If this league is marginally successful will it lead to more undergrads declaring for this league’s draft? Kid may not be NFL material but could jump ship and instead of making zero playing college football make 50 to 100k or whatever they pay in this league.

Are there rules in place that would prohibit a high school player from foregoing college and enter this league directly?

Don’t underestimate the proclivity of kids in their teens and early 20s to make stupid decisions.

Was inquiring if someone wanted to make a stupid decision is it possible.

If it is successful, maybe. But success would have to be accomplished before it would ever come to that.

This is a spring league so the expectation is he'll still be able to do his job with Oregon State as well.

That would seem like a huge NCAA Violation. I'm pretty sure a college coach cannot also be employed by a pro team.
