Unless the coaches are smitten by Denman or okay with a committee of decent RBs, I hope we’re pulling out all the stops for the ULM RB.

Again, it’s hard to say if the lack of rushing attack was an RB problem, OL problem, or a combo of both. But I think it says something that we had to make a special package for a WR to establish a run game. Hell, Hejny was more effective too. That to me says the issue is closer to the former.

Is that for real, can he still play college ball in 2025?

Imagine trying to build a program at Tulsa. Not sure how much longer programs like that will even try. It’s beyond futile for them to try and compete at the D1 level.

My oldest is an alum of Tulsa... Great school! But according to his connections that are still there, they are absolutely assessing whether they should keep this up or not.

If the answer to that isn't "no" I'd like to understand the reasoning behind it. No way in heck that the program is making money.

I remember going to watch a Tulsa-Wichita state football game back in the 80s. A brother of a friend played for WSU. Nobody was there. We went to a Booker T. Washington-Tulsa Union high school playoff game there later that season & there were 3 times as many fans there.

Two years later WSU ended their football program but TU kept on playing. It makes sense to cut the cord for TU - how many coaches have they hired & fired the last 10 years? Have any of them experienced any success? And their new coach is going to have to start from scratch, too……you have to think they are on life support now.

OUCH!!!
The NCAA should institute a rule that would make you ineligible for NIL after your first transfer. Like you get to transfer one time and that's it. After that, no more NIL if you transfer again. That would slow alot of this [ deposit from a bull that looks like Art Briles ] down.

The entire reason NIL exists is because the Supreme Court ruled that the NCAA can't regulate outside payments, so this wouldn't fly.

Maybe go back to 1 time transfer, then the player has to sit a year if they transfer again.

The solution is very simple. If you transfer, you have to sit out a year before competing. No exceptions. NIL would instantly become what is what actually designed to do, allow a player to make money off of their Name, Image and Likeness. You could allow players to make all the money they want, that simple rule would stop almost all of this nonsense.

I guess someone said that illegal though, but I'm not sure anyone cared to put up much of a fight. They threw out an entire nursery with the bathwater.

It's out of control. I am confused on the revenue sharing thing is going to work. Will it "level" the playing field as far as how much a player gets? A sort of salary cap?

It is my understanding that there will be no limit on what a player can make. I don't think that would fly. And I'm fine with that. If a booster or a business wants to pay $10M for a kid to come to their school, more power to them.

The only "control" method is to limit transfers by not allowing them to immediately compete. The leverage that rule provides players makes this totally out of whack. This thing started as players being able to make money by being on billboards, business advertisements, sign autographs, etc and its evolved to where its more or less extortion.

The DOJ and multiple states were suing to block this when the NCAA dropped enforcement before they could rule. They really, really don't want an antitrust ruling.
S o I guess they could reinstate it temproarily, but considering the current makeup of the Supreme Court, I think everyone knows it's unlikely to hold up.
