Yeah, I want the tea.

Vandy. Close to home and for his family to make the drives down to Nashville for home games.

He ended up at App State, unfortunately.

He can play all techniques!? I watched his highlights and while in high school he played every technique on the DL. If that's the case he'll be a valuable addition for Coach Kuntz. Let's hope we land this guy just for having a utility player on the DL. My word, what an asset to have.

No disagreement from me in regards to the context of what you're trying to convey. All leaders have a style and his style doesn't sit well with half of the country while on the other hand it's just the style the other half desire.

You and me both.

Definitely not my style. He's got no issues throwing stones back. Here's the thing though, he might be right. He's got a season to prove it.

Thanks for sharing. I'll just say this. I'm not defending Coach Prime so keep that in mind. Won 3 more games than the previous season he took over. 1-11 the previous season when he took over and he told those players to leave Doesn't bad mouth anyone publicly until they cast the first stones. Xavier Smith cast the first stone is this case Running a high risk high reward program. He's an extremely confident and brutally honest person that rubs folks the wrong the way. Personally, I don't like his style but I respect the heck out of him. The verdict is still out if he's running an unsuccessful campaign. It's only his second season but he tripled the school's wins from the previous season. I would say that's far from unsuccessful but that's just me.

What did I miss?

If I had to guess, the JMU cluster has something to prove. We'll see how that transfers to Big Ten football, but personally, I'm extremely comfortable who's running IUFB.

I think eligibility was the issue. I could be wrong though.

Yeah, that was a messy deal. Who knows. I thought he as at UAB with Dilfer?

Projected starter CB Kobee Minor has entered the transfer portal.

If I were a betting man, he's either going to Vandy or IU. I could be wrong but I'm still willing to bet it.

If this Hemenway rumor is correct, I am happy for him and his family. He's battled the injury bug pretty much throughout his college career. He'll contribute in the locker room for sure. Also willing to bet Calbert Cheney might have a lot to do with making this happen. (Cheney was teammates with Celmson's HC during their high school days.) I believe he's like Goode who always wanted to be at IUBB. I watched him play a lot in high school. He was teammates with Jack Nundge during his sophomore year at Castle. They were a lot of fun to watch. I think he played against Leal a couple of times as well. Good kid. Really happy for him.

Going to try and get to every home game this year. I already got my tickets for the Rose Bowl game in September.

This makes sense. I was thinking the same thing. Noticed he put himself in the portal.

Havodipo already covered this but I concur. We need more depth on the defensive side of the ball. It's hard to tell where we stand compared to other schools in our conference but I'm confident we are a much better football team compared to last year's. The offense is much better with a lot of depth at the skilled positions. The defense tackled for the first time last night so I'm not too concerned with some of the missed tackles. I think the biggest concern I have personally is the lack of depth on defense. Hopefully the injuries heal (James Carpenter, Jailin Walker, and Lanell Carr Jr. in particular) and the portal will take care of all that.

Source: Active NIL engagements require the labor of athletes. This can be any form of service or work by the athlete in the engagement—things such as posting on social media, appearing at an event, or signing an autograph. These NIL activations are the most common in the industry, as brands and collectives have increasingly turned student-athletes towards participation in the influencer economy. Passive NIL engagements leverage the influence of the athlete without requiring any labor on the athlete’s end. The group licensing payments for the upcoming EA Sports NCAA Football video game can best illustrate this type of engagement. In exchange for financial considerations, student-athletes give EA Sports a license to use their name, image, likeness, voice, and jersey number in the game. No labor comes from the student-athlete, and therefore, no violation of their student visa has occurred. Based on that article I linked this is how I understand the differences between the two. I could be wrong though. Passive Examples: You buy the athlete's jersey at Dicks because the athlete signed a licensed deal to allow it. You play the athlete on EA Sports College Football 25. Active Examples: So while the athlete isn't waiting tables per se he is signing the jersey you just bought at Dicks or posting an ad of him on the cover of EA Sports College Football 25 on his social media account, or running a summer camp during the offseason, or in a local commercial slinging a product, or is the guest speaker at a corporate event. So I think there are so much more opportunity for the athlete to maximize there worth/value with active engagements. Especially if they're able to combine the two together, like at a jersey signing or what have you. It allows the athlete to do the George Costanza and 'double dip' if that makes sense.
