    W-L prediction from on3

    It’s a tough call. I get the optimism and I also get the uncertainty. The raw material (players and coaches) are there and fuel the optimist in me. But…new coaches (here) and an entirely new roster that will have to learn a new system and come together quickly…plus a tough schedule worries the...

    Guy on twitter says Ohio state refused to pay him other half of NIL deal

    Negative recruiting reaches new heights in 3…2…1…

    The law of unintended consequences

    Yep, seems like fake news to me. Money to pay staff cannot be used to pay players. That would be an NCAA violation.

    Guy on twitter says Ohio state refused to pay him other half of NIL deal

    Source says…. It seems there’s a lot of crap being spread everywhere. No one really knows what is true or who to believe. Getting messy out there.

    What are your UNrealistic expectations for next year?

    Seeing a well coached team who take pride in themselves and their school. That’s plenty for me.

    Everyone is in the portal now

    After every season, everyone should enter the portal. Then, in May, we have a draft. Plus, all teams should have a salary cap. The NIL idea was for players to share in the profits they help create…not to become snotty 18 year old millionaires.

    J. Quaintance to Louisville...?

    Not being negative at all and no one was happier to see the snake oil salesman pack up and leave. Maybe I’m just getting anxious to get this ship back on track. If using NIL is the new way of getting quality players, and we can afford to do so….why don’t we? All of us here know that when you get...

    J. Quaintance to Louisville...?

    So, if the market soars and it’s gonna take some serious change to get the top players then…what do you suggest we do. You’ve seen it all major sports (and, let’s face it…that’s we we are now dealing with) prices for players just escalates. Once a player passes a certain barrier then everyone...

    J. Quaintance to Louisville...?

    Yeah…you’re right. We should all be glad our top recruit is heading west of here. We need to keep our larder of NIL. Who needs good players?

    J. Quaintance to Louisville...?

    Why worry about how they spend? By all accounts, CMP has a wad of NIL cash burning a hole in his pocket. Why not flash that cash and get us some players? Why are we now becoming frugal at a time we need CMP to flex some muscles???

    J. Quaintance to Louisville...?

    Let’s be honest here. We were thrilled when .he committed here. Many considered him our best incoming freshman of our next class. And, if you think we weren’t going to hand him a bag then you’re kidding yourself. He and the others in the ex-class weren’t coming here for free. Now many want to...
