I. M. Gei posted:The tweet doesn't link to an article. Does anyone know why the guy got pushed out? Was it some booster poo poo like when Auburn fired Tuberville? nothing specific so far he did miss most of 2022 dealing with an illness and split time in the booth this season; my guess is he wanted more money than alabama wanted to pay him or they wanted to do a clean sweep when saban retired. both are dumb reasons to let someone go especially if he's in good health as he claims

9-4 is a perfect record it will make every other fanbase devastated when it's not as bad as they hoped, and it will make this fanbase loving miserable because they got so used to 10 wins and a NY6 bowl that anything less is dogshit

if notre dame was looked at objectively (generally top third of the acc, sometimes at the top) people wouldn't care so much about them but they've also done it to themselves by not joining a conference and making themselves special snowflakes that have to receive special accommodations despite being acc members in all but name

Adun posted:Given how long a court case will take both teams are almost certainly doing this in the dark, or the best case scenario on a wing, a prayer, and a wink-wink deal i think at least one league and or network has made some sort of vague overture about how florida state and/or clemson could be doing so much better than they are in their current deal but it's just as likely that fsu and clemson just watched the pac 12 go up in smoke and suddenly the big 12 added on teams and the acc is the low man on the totem pole (along with their accurate perception that their football programs are buoying a lot of the conference's value) and are trying to get a foot in the door somewhere anywhere before it's too late between that and the soft launch of the acc's doomed super league plan and the acc's total inability to exert any leverage on their most valued semi member and i would also be trying to get the gently caress out

General Dog posted:What would “too late” look like for Florida State? The train’s not leaving without them (or leaving with them, depending on what the metaphor is). florida state is still doing fine but they don't have booster money like the honest to god blue bloods do, so they need that tv money to suppement NIL in the recruiting arms race they're not behind yet but they're not keeping up with the joneses, and if they're stuck in the acc's grant of rights for another ten years then they're going to wither on the vine (at least that's their view); seeing what happened with the pac 12 being up for a new contract spooked a bunch of teams

Adun posted:What kind of time commitment does this require? Like just schedule/play one game per week? the madden league in the same server currently moves fairly quickly and does about 1-2 games a week for users; typically you'll have 3 or 4 days to schedule something and people are generally chill about extensions. if you need to miss a week it's not the end of the world either so you'll have maybe 2 games and then recruiting in a heavy week, so probably 3 hours max a week will be your time commitment as a player (maybe 4 if you manage to fit 3 user games in a single week but that's more of a personal choice). we also don't know how recruiting will actually work (whether it's just points like NCAA 14 or if it's more in depth like NCAA 12/13) so we may adjust accordingly to give people more time to do their stuff

There is no added value for fans. universities and university sports are money making endeavors; almost everything that is done is never done with the intent of bringing more value to fans if a single dollar from any ads on a jersey patch go to an athlete then it will have been worthwhile, i can't bring myself to really give a poo poo that miami of ohio is gonna have jiffy lube patches or whatever. i don't pick and choose which parts of the capitalist endeavor i have a problem with being commercial; i'd way rather lean into the absurdity
