  1. I'm intrigued by Allen. I don't know anything about him but to get on a short list like that preseason out of Wyoming he must have some skill.
  2. Darnold is so good
  3. Right, salaries are their only expense
  4. That's false. They are government. Doesn't matter either way. If they were for profit they could create a foundation and solicit all the donations their hearts desire.
  5. Again, Bama isn't a "non-profit." I don't know what makes you think anything would change in their case if they were taxed. Additionally, Bama making money is really the exception to the rule. Knowing your stance on education, I don't think you'd like to see how schools would be run if they were for profit. Bye bye tenure.
  6. Non profits don't have to lose money. I think the problem is a lot of people don't know what a non profit is. The NCAAs most recently filed 990 shows 7.7 mil net income. 9 mil was investment income from their assets. Their programs therefore lost 1.3 million bucks. A 501c3 needs to have a charitable purpose, and I think an organization that helps thousands get through college at a reduced price or free would probably fit the bill. Furthermore institutions don't "hide behind non profit status." Public schools are government. They aren't even non-profits
  7. Sounds like your issue is with the IRS.
  8. Go for it then
  9. He generates a ton of money for that school. Can't really argue much with it
  10. Yeah really anything accomplished this year will be gravy. I'm mostly interested to see what kind of ball we're playing. Not hopeful for too great of a season. But you never know, we have a few decent pieces left.
  11. Drafted by the Steelers. So awesome. First jersey purchase for me since high school
  12. Pat? Is there another Pat I'm not remembering?
  13. It's not hard to imagine that he'd be a backup for three more years there as opposed to playing big minutes for three years here
  14. If last year was his true freshman year, this can be his redshirt year and he'll still have three years to play. We're gonna be damn good in 18-19. Let's see how Groce can coach em up this year.
  15. Awesome! Groce can close. I think all these kids were in on visits this week?
  16. Woo! This will be a fun couple of years worth of puns
  17. You didn't comment on any tweets originally either. But fair enough. What did he say?
  18. This is a weird thing to say about someone we've never seen play. Maybe we'll use the scholarship on someone better, maybe we'll swing and miss. But it's not like we've seen him play actual games and struggle or anything.
  19. This one makes me wonder if Groce may have told him it's best to go elsewhere
  20. also - 6' my a** I don't care what he was listed it, he wasn't 6 feet tall
