OMG!!!

You mean life is easier and more opportunities abound for the super attractive?

I’m shocked.

Geez, these kind of articles and comments are so dumb.

Attractive people have an advantage in life. Get over it.

That’s kinda sorta something you should have sorted out when you were a teenager maybe??

That’s a funny quote but it honestly sucks for us. We’re in the middle of trying to play catch up on facilities & now there is this other distraction & draw from resources that could go to facilities. If something isn’t done to control NIL, & bring it back down to what it was supposed to be, I’m afraid it could be the end of college athletics for schools like us. There’s just not enough money & interest to go around & support building facilities that most schools built over the course of decades & to raise money to bankroll competitive football & basketball teams. What happened last week with the coaching search gave me even less hope. Probably just rumors but if coaches really won’t come here without a good NIL package in place to support a team we are screwed.

Yeah, we need a T. Boone. A lot of problems go away if we get a T. Boone.

You guys need to be crossing that state border and playing the Mega Millions or Power Ball when it crosses the $1B mark.
