Gotta believe these unbalanced NIL payments are an issue in many a locker room. I hated doing performance apprailsals back in the day. It was rare to have an employee who agreed with your assesment, and God help you if they found out how others were being rated.

Yeah, I'm not all that bright and I predicted this would happen at the onset of NIL.. As fun as it is for fans and boosters to say why don't they just overbid for a HS player. You're affecting the ecosystem of the locker room when the player currently on the roster finds out about the new incoming freshman making MUCH more than him. Yet he just put his blood, sweat and tears on the field for the team the previous season. I'm sure some delicate conversations are had, but I don't see sustained success for teams constantly touting over paying for every incoming freshman. I think this is where a program like OSU can have continued success, though they will lose on some very highly rated players, they can arrange more complete teams.

Lol...

we had to know with all that billionaire money that they would eventually find a decent hire. Frankly, my initial thought was he is a great hire. But once I saw he was 66 years old that changes my opinion some. 3 years...5 max.

This game sucks, but go Team from B1G, I guess.

One man's trash...

We will see how Wittingham adjusts to playing more consistently against higher level competition and the pressure of higher expectations that he's never really had at Utah. I think the floor is probably higher with him than Brohm or Monken but the ceiling remains unmoved (9-3ish type team who can win 10 games every so often when the stats align right but never really a true national contender)

I would have preferred that they had not landed on their feet with a proven solid coach who prefers a physical style of play. I don’t see him making them elite, but they won’t crater, will be a moderate to fairly serious threat, and will surely get the benefit of the doubt that they’ve cleaned everything up from the media. Hopefully, he doesn’t have the energy to be an elite recruiter. It would help a lot if they make the mistake of going away from the NFL-level DC’s they’ve had.

All true. And some have suggested he could just enjoy the massive salary increase and mail it in from the golf course.

On the other hand, he has coached for 32 years and suddently has a legit opportunity to win a NC.

Something interesting about Moore is that he has fielded two of those 9-4,10-3 teams with a program which Poggi describes as malfunctioning.

Pay attention to the staff he puts together. That is the first place Ellison's money will go.

Threat level High.

A trained monkey coulda coached scUM to 9 wins this year with the cake walk conference schedule they were handed. I don't think there's a coach who goes better than 9-3 with them this year and you'd be really hard pressed to find someone so incompetent that they finished worse.

What year was he born?

Trick question, idiot.

He was not born, his anal whore of a mother violently shit him out after taking a laxative.

That’s what he is to us now. Fuck you.

No it’s a good hire for the next few years. After retiring from Utah, I’m not sure how enthusiastic he’ll be in recruiting. It’ll keep them afloat for 2-4 years while they try to find their next pos.

It's gonna take a lot more than hiring someone like Whittingham to suggest a clean up at TCUN. A LOT more.

Well, lost respect for Whittington. Hope he drives them into the ground somehow.

Wondering if the buzz around Monken was really for OC. Seems like a backwards move.

No I think Monken was justslurping at the alter of Ravens hand me downs

Yeah. Fuck him if he takes that job and helps them launder their shit-stained reputation.

Ya just hate to see it.

Do we know that Ellison is involved in anything beyond the one-and-done QB purchase for his latest wife. He has zero connections with the tsun other than some likely research related stuff that is handled well below his office and is no different than what Oracle has with multiple othe aau universities.
