So say you, Gordon Ramsey?

Either way, short of being a stakeholder in the transaction, we have no right to know the details of the private transaction unless the parties choose to disclose.

FedEx put out a press release about their contribution. They chose to disclose what they did. Doesn't say who's getting what.

Mandating 14 (FCS) or 16 (FBS) is intentionally fiscally predatory, separating bigs from not. NIL exacerbates that. This fiscal disparity will force the NCAA to relook at division membership, namely a play what you can afford model. And yes, that's the death of many Olympic type collegiate sports.

Maaaaaaybe as part of an advertizing budget.

I donate to UNDAA&F because it's organized as a North Dakota nonprofit corporation, is exempted from federal income tax liability by Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and qualifies as a public charity. <- tax write-off A NIL collective is not a charity so no write-off.

Pay-for-Play? Minor Professional?

You didn't realize this NIL stuff is just to widen the gap between the bigs and the rest?

NIL and taxes from the receiver's POV: https://www.investopedia.com/nil-deals-tax-implications-8599929#:~:text=Money earned from NIL deals,to make estimated tax payments.

Could be 1099, but yes, taxable.

I'd rather a top nine (expected to score) and a grind. DU had 11 guys with 30+ points; UND had 4. The mindset needs to be more than "up one with 20 to play is good enough".

That's a legitimate critique: Two near-equal talents, Blais would always play the younger, less experienced to see if it'll grow further. Berry plays the older experienced (safe) option, see: Albrecht, Senden, Hain.

But as the more senior, mature members of fandom it's our jobs to provide history and perspective.

Life is cyclic. Appreciate the good; the not-so will come. Don't dwell on the down times; work for better.

Denver's run: 2017, 2022, 2024 Lest we forget: 1980, 1982, 1987 Same duration, three titles.

Kevin Weeks as volunteer goalie coach?

" ... TJ with another big save ... " " ... TJ had to be and was our best penalty killer tonight." No worries.

NIL will be what kills the golden goose that was college athletics.

Not a whole bag ... just 30 pieces.

I'll be calling your employer and asking then posting your rate of pay. Sound good?

I think I said that ...

You understand (the adsurdity that is) a collective. If you become a donor/member/co-owner* I'd assume you'd have some rights to look at the books. *not sure how the money sources are categorized

- SHU at 7; ASU and 'mack at 6 each; Omaha at 5; don't foresee UND going above 4 (at 3 now) - list is at row 308 so easily over 300
