Cincinnati Bearcats (Juggalos official thread of Faygo)

It’s appalling what we’ve allowed to happen

It’s worst in higher education

Real estate isn’t that far behind

I grew up in an ok neighborhood where every man was blue collar, every woman was a homemaker, and every family lived in a single family home with a mortgage payment that was less than a week of the man’s wages (after taxes)(all of the men agreed that this ratio was the foundation of a household budget).

In a vain attempt to get us back on-topic… I’m sure this is all UC’s fault. Fuck these Insane Clown College Pukes
Especially when schools aren’t called on the carpet when the athletic departments run on student fees. I haven’t looked in a while, but I would guess that Texas and Michigan are the only schools on the Buckeye schedule that don’t.

HC Ryan Day (National Champion)

I think Wittingham gets the COY most with less award.

Franklin at 8 is funny. Maybe they forgot the 1 in front of it?

Didn’t know who #20 was. Had to google him.
Oh fuck. Last time he said that I Googled "Me". And it didn't really help.

I see now. Pretty good in NAIA

Don’t know when you graduated, and I respect your determination. That said, I could work for 8 weeks in one of Dayton’s GM factories and make enough money to pay for a year - apartment, food, utilities, tuition, books. My final two years, Uncle Sam gave $50 a month for ROTC and I picked up more beer and pizza money by reffing intramural and jr hi sports. Tuition was something like 450 per quarter by 1967.
I don’t know where today’s students could work that would keep up with the cost of tuition, let alone room and board.
I understand your position on the arts, but I believe they have added to my enjoyment of life and my understanding of others.

2025 scUM Shenanigans, Arguments - NCAA: no wins taken away, no postseason ban

@Premierdrum posted about it on 11W earlier today. It's true.

And what's even better is the Morons and dipshits up north aren't paying attention, because MGoPravda or any of their other propaganda sources aren't putting anything out about it. I don't have a subscription to the The Fart so if it shows up there, maybe someone who does can screen cap the stupidity.

Indiana Hoosiers (your shinebox, go f'n get it)

Yeah - last year was fun, but they'll be back to "Indiana" soon enough.

Check out this OOC schedule: Old Dominion, Kennesaw State, and Indiana State.

They also play at Oregon and at Penn State. 2025 Oregon probably won't be 2024 Oregon, but I think they will beat Indiana. And Penn State will, too.
If they go 6-1 against the rest of their conference schedule, I'd be shocked.
I think they'll go 9-3, 6-3, at best this year.
How many of those transfers with 3-4 years of experience in Cignetti’s system do they still have?

tOSU Recruiting Discussion

yeah, I was thinking sort of in the terms of buyouts and breaches
Gotcha. Well, speaking generally I wouldn’t think a number of these kids parents are reading the fine print, or have attorneys to read over such things. Heck, some have random “family members “ advising them(remember former 5star Keon Keeley and his uncle), and many are single parents(mainly moms) just happy their kid is going to school for free and getting paid. They don’t know how much money is involved. I remember saying in the Jakobe Klapper thread that my wife is friends with his mom, and she had no clue how NIL. She was about to set up a gofundme to pay for trips to colleges out of the Midwest region because she didn’t think she could afford The travel costs. I had to tell my wife to tell her that she won’t be worrying about money for a long time when he signs with ND. These single moms are working multiple jobs just to get these kids through HS, and many have multiple kids to worry about as well. Some Of these moms are bartenders, secretary’s, teachers, etc, they have no idea what a buyout or breach is

Cincinnati Bearcats (Juggalos official thread of Faygo)

I did not do this

I worked 40 hours a week and took a full load of classes

I had to just to get by. Even though my parents didn’t help me at all, my father made too much for me to get a federal grant in year one. I made too much money to get a federal grant thereafter.

Sound like an easy trap to fall into? It was. That’s why I wasn’t alone. Lots of people were in that boat. All you had to do was tell the truth on your financial aid forms. Then, while you’re walking to work on a Saturday (a car is way outside your budget), you get to hear a frat boy bragging to a sun bathing hottie that he’d just put a car stereo in his BMW with his Pell Grant

Digressions aside, I promise you that no one who was working full time while taking a full load of classes gives a single fig about the History of Art. Education for the sake of education is still an extremely elitist commodity. It’s one of the things that makes elites think they’re better than the rest of us.

Better at what? I’ve never been able to ascertain that. Unless perhaps rigging the system is considered…. They’re running the university system into the ground and pricing it to the point where it is now far more expensive than it’s worth… yeah. That’s a feature. Not a bug

As for learning things “from Google”. There are better ways of learning things from the internet, and some of those can even result in credentials, including the credentials that have made me more money than my BSEE ever did. These alternative sources of education and credentialing are starting to replace the university system, and the people at the helm of the university system have done this to themselves
