    How the 17 did Indiana get so good?

    They scouted/developed a fantastic roster then spent the dough to retain the roster and improve in a few positions after they went 11-1 last season. They don't hold together their roster without spending solid money. Not to say they are spending on par with the top dogs, but they are...

    EPL ….

    Yea it's exciting that we should surely have money to spend for the first time in 2-3 windows. Start with strengthening those two spots and the depth issue will be helped too if Jacob Murphy and Burn/Schar are willing to be more of role players.

    EPL ….

    I had no idea there were other Newcastle fans in here. It's worrisome that we seem caught in a constant cycle of backroom drama. We can't keep our recruitment staff in place long enough to come up with a coherent plan and it feels like we're already behind the 8 ball on what needs to be a big...

    EPL ….

    The champions league race is tight. Massive game for my Newcastle against Chelsea this weekend. We had chances to all but seal a spot and got thrashed by Villa then drew Brighton. Newcastle has a lot riding on champions league qualification in terms of whether we're going to have to potentially...

    Ohio State athletic budget

    Yep, enjoy both sports and can't help but notice the parallels. If we could figure out how to get some sort of transfer fee equivalent out of losing players to the portal it would give us a niche to survive in like Brighton and Southampton in the Klopp era. ....or we could become sponsored by...

    The Faked Injury Epidemic

    To add to that, some of the more nationally focused podcasts I listen to are talking about it. People besides us are noticing, it's just a matter of doing something about it now.

    Deion digging deep for NIL $$$

    Look at how the Middle East petro-states took over European soccer clubs and pumped money into them to make them some of the best clubs in Europe (PSG, Man City). Someone in college football will be willing to take their money if they want to get involved and will probably benefit immensely in...

    USMNT hires Pochettino…

    I feel his inability to win trophies at PSG and Chelsea was more because of the dysfunction at those clubs than him. Their strategy of just buying the best players they can get their hands on doesn't work anymore, you have to have a plan. He had chances at Tottenham but I'd argue that him...

    Soccer flopping

    I think most soccer fans agree with the non-soccer fans on this. International soccer, especially the South American countries, is worse than the Premier League. Though it's still bad in the PL, they will at least occasionally give a yellow for faking or exaggerating contact.

    Good thread from the pay board - What's your unpopular State opinion?

    Once the great expansion race is done, the SEC and Big10 will look to shed teams that they don't feel add enough value to the conference. I don't believe they'll keep two teams from Mississippi.
