Thinking of NIL, the changing landscape of college football ... and Kain Colter

I think that's fair.
Unfortunately, I think there was a lot of CYOA in that situation. To think these guys are anything but employees of the school in a multi-billion dollar enterprise is probably living in the 1950s. Waiting until it was too late to come up with a workable framework that kept most of what we enjoy intact with a sensible solution is no longer in the cards, I'm afraid.
Add he was an early 20 something damaged kid leading this unpopular but correct campaign. Tell us gcg - have you always been perfect or was that a recent onset?

Fitz. Gragg. Schill. The NU BoT. Rick Taylor too.

They are All are frauds, cowards, and thieves in my book.

The NULC keeps mailing me asking me for donations. 😂 never again, Evanston! 🖕
Taylor was a dick. A fraud to the extent he wasn’t trying to be an athletic director, more like a Nazi athletic dictator. May he burn in hell.

I guess anybody can diagnose anything if they don't have to prove it.
Ask any personal injury lawyer - offense or defense. @nochores and the rest of the board lawyers have all stayed quiet every time I have poked them to discuss the non verifiable but often compensated Dx from accident claims….

So — for the rest of the non lawyers, you all good calling bullshit on various back and neck pain that cannot be found on diagnostics? Hell, most arthritis cannot be diagnostically confirmed. Maybe you old folks are whiners? (I have early arthritis and a replacement shoulder and both ankles due to my athletics so I say this to make a point…)

But just wondering where all you quick to condemn folks sit on other non confirmable diagnosis - as CTE is far from the first, only or most common. I’ll sit back and enjoy the silence while the rest of you grab a Vicodin for you or your loved one’s bullshit, unverifiable pain.

Rashawn Slater heading to the Pro Bowl

I bought the NFL Ticket just to see the Chargers & Lions games. I watch Slater on every offensive play. His footwork and technique are exceptional.

I saw on one site, he was rated #2 in NFL , behind Trent Williams but in another he was # 9 OT , even behind Penei Sewell , who plays right tackle

Without the package, I would be stuck with Jaguars, Falcons or Panthers
Sewell is an athletic freak. Just a joy to watch.

I’ve not seen Slater this year at all. Exciting that he’s healthy and dominant. Harbaugh only wins.

Collins Post Game Press Conference

Collins exceptionally calm and deferential. Wonder if he hasn’t seen the tape or if he’s putting on an act because he has to. And if that act is smart/beneficial. Not sure.
Who knows for real, but in the clip above Collins says specifically that he hasn't seen the tape and just has to trust that the three guys at the monitor got it right.

Collins Post Game Press Conference

Was it last year CC went nuts near the end of the game on the baseline and in the face of a ref at Purdue? I felt like the NU paid for that for a few games.

It's obvious refs talk and they have long memories. It's never worth it to show them up ... unless MAYBE it does something for your team.
That was Courtney Green. Interestingly, that game was the 4th NU game he had called last year out of 47 total games this far - but then he did not ref another NU game the rest of the season, despite calling 33 more games including 11 conference games, 3 conference tourney games, and two at Barclay's during the tournament. He has not called one this season either so far.

The Rant Board

But, as Bardo pointed out - Northwestern needs to back off from Ace Baldwin and make him make a jump shot. Stop getting up on him and using hands to slow him down when he tries to go by.

I thought that was a solid observation.
It's a bullshit "observation" when defenders on Ace aren't even touching him and he initiates contact to draw the foul while at the same time, PSU - including ACE - are defensively putting two hands on Cats players all night long with no calls.

Bardo was just trying to find some justification for the terrible officiating he clearly wasn't willing to mention. I suspect the announcers are contractually obligated to not discuss the refs in any negative way regardless what is happening.

He could more honestly have said 'the Cats should know by now that the refs will call a foul on them if they get within three feet of Ace and they should just let him score at will to avoid more free throws.'
