No scUM countdown?

Mark Cuban increased his NIL spending over last year's donation. I forgot he's an IU grad. They will be a force for the foreseeable future. :/

While in C'bus for holidays, went to see several games at the Schott. Two women and one men's games. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience, as well as the basketball shows put on. See the Lady Bucks playing well, and down low, they still need that person to provide instant offense off the bench, but they're closer to having one than the men's team is. In person, the players are all tall, but in relative terms, bigger than you and me. Have high hopes for both teams, (yeah, have scarlet & gray glasses on), but both need a coach that can coach in the clutch (and players that can execute).

The Buckeye Grove is quickly turning into a forest.

Is Mylan better than Innis? If he were to come back, would he be in Carnell Tate's spot? Where does that put Chris Henry and Innis?

Glad he seems to be having a good time, hope he lands in Columbus. That said, that TJ Maxx haul of Christmas clearance Buckeye stuff reminds me of the bland hot dog on a paper plate they had at Harbaugh's camp a few years back.

Certainly cannot disagree....and add that we're comparing last year's portal acquisitions to the prior year's ones, Quinshon, Howard, Sayin, etc which were 500' home runs. And if the AD's NIL purse strings were closed, didn't get the ability to compete with the A&Ms, TTs, SCs etc. Finally, guess the NIL tape was full of the few moments that guy shone, rather than the times the DE roared past them....guess you cannot have a mediocre position group, along with an outstanding one, without one affecting the other. Also appears we're losing more 5*s than gaining. Hopefully tOSU doesn't continue to expect the 'big fish/small pond' situations to all prove to be homers....

I think there's an elimination clause for folks who pick against the buckeyes.

Early first round money is what, 20-30 million? And from what recollect, mostly guaranteed? Even taking away 10% for an agent, still leaves a bunch to invest/bank. Hopefully these kids get a NFL lesson on spending, as the NIL Lambo's are staying in state with the college team. After the obligatory new house for M&D, and hopefully, hire an honest business manager, should set up for future. NFL career lengths vary, but are woefully short - injury, next-best-thing, drafted over, etc. Maybe there was a college class on 'handling money 101' for NIL cash?

This shouldn't even be a decision. I'd love for him to come back. Would beg for it.

He absolutely shouldn't come back unless he's getting bad NFL feedback. Day should lock his ass out of the Woody.
