[QUOTE="Gehörnter Frosch, post: 3111730, member: 79"] Is this a shell to get players money directly? Or is this another one of those guidance programs to teach players how to go get endorsement money for themselves? If it's the latter, it's a big freaking waste of time and much ado about nothing. Either pay the players directly (booster, to intermediary, to player) or get out of their way. No kid wants to go around Fort Worth shilling and begging for money. Either the big money guys need to step up and pay the kids, or TCU just needs to accept its future fate as a G5 level has-been. TCU is never going to succeed if the sales pitch is "come here, and we'll give you skills to self market and go maximize your value to businesses in the area." Meanwhile you'll have Houston and Texas Tech out there paying recruits cold hard cash, with guarantees and performance bonuses. TCU better wake the heck up real fast, or else it's going to be singing its swan song in about five years. [/QUOTE]
