If he is in the Shoe I certainly hope that the current trend of throwing big green dildos continues.

Now you actually have a target to hit ....

2026 tOSU Recruiting Discussion

pnuts34
According to Wiltfong and some of the guys over on LR, OSU may now realize that they can offer competitive deals(I'll believe it when it happens). But just passing along the info:

Per Wiltfong:
I think OSU is going to be aggressive this fall with rising seniors and flip targets.

Per Spencer Holbrook:
The tide seems to be turning and Ohio State seems to be more ready to pivot, from some early things I have heard.

Per Birm:
They are working on ways to incorporate the collectives, that's been going on for the last few weeks. Still not going to just chase bad investments.

Should semipro/college players be paid, or allowed to sell their stuff? (NIL and Revenue Sharing)

Thanks, I spent the last several years of my career negotiating multi million dollar agreements for a Fortune 500 company, so my thoughts immediately go to contract complexity (it's also why I find this stuff interesting in retirement). A football only, 30 school league certainly makes that doable.

And I have to admit, there is an elegance to it that I really like. But it is a very radical change from the current status quo which will make getting there difficult.

I think Kentucky(?) already did something where the athletic department is now an LLC?

As far as the radical shift, I think the catalyst will simply be the old model simply gets unsustainable. Too much NIL money demand, not enough ROI, the current attempt at a control structure gets defeated in court, some combination of the two, who knows?

I am pretty confident that total open and free market never lasts. I'd be willing to make a big bet on that.

I really was intrigued by this convo, but wanted to keep the 2026 recruiting thread about the 2026 recruits. And you guys were providing some deep info regarding CFB restructuring along with NIL and revenue sharing. Figured it'd be more pertinent to continue in this thread

At least the guy that Cleveland traded for a pitcher that they DFA'd in the middle of the very next season hit two homers tonight...

Yandy Diaz hit a HR too.

We traded him to Tampa for Jake Bauers

Diaz has carved out a nice career in 7 seasons with Tampa

Jake Bauers hit .218 in 2 years with Cleveland, he's somehow still hanging around but boasts a .207 career average without any power stats.
