Definitley no shortage of places to put it - this is a deep black hole.
More specifically - should it only go to Football NIL, the general AD fund, NIL for all sports, etc.. These are big decisions and we donât even have an AD.
Regarding the Georgia game, some friends ended up with an extra ticket but I couldnât pull the trigger to go. Would be great to see a game at Georgia, but I donât want to see a massacre. Bad fan - I know.
To get the highest payout game against georgiaâŚhow does that conversation go for Hill to pull off?
âYou guys paid Arkansas State $1.8MM. Weâre at least a rung below them so you gotta go at least $50k more. Hell, we just lost to William and MaryâŚmake it $1.9MM!â
I always wonder what this says to the team. Hey, go out and get creamed so the $$$ can come in for those behind you. A little different when itâs basketball, upsets there occasionally happen. But to basically be a tune up for big program to cash a check is a sad state of affairs in sports for all that do it. Unless you are W&M or NC A&T and you take a check from the Gold Standard and actually win the game? 44.5 road dog seems really light unless there is a belief starters will rest and a gentlemanâs agreement is in place to âtake it easyâ on them.
Iâm sure itâs not all sacrificial for our players. There has to be some excitement of getting to play between the hedges. Years from now they can say âI remember when I was playing on that field against the Dawgsâ!!
I hate that mentality. I wouldnât want to play there to say I did. Whats next, take pictures with the opposing team. Gotta be a competitor, no matter how unlikely the win is. Donât put any opponent on z pedestsl
This is a scrimmage game. Hopefully the coaches have a gentlemanâs agreement to not try to hurt each other. UGA has more to lose than Charlotte in this game. Hopefully there is a running clock in the second half.
The players arent stupid, they know we are winless vs FBS teams going against UGA. They know the chances of winning are miniscule, but that doesnât mean they are not going to try and be excited they get to play in a stadium that has seen some amazing games.
