Re: NAR: Seattle and Grand Canyon are part of the WCC

GCU just wants more bodies who can take out student loans to write them checks. Learning is completely irrelevant. So they invest massive amounts of money in athletics hoping to raise their school's visibility and cause more prospective students to take out loans and write checks. ... it is hard to...

Re: NAR: Seattle and Grand Canyon are part of the WCC

As noted above, Seattle U is Jesuit, and culturally is nearly identical to the other Catholic schools in the WCC. It adds market value similar to what the other schools do in their large markets, and could eventually be decent in athletics. (They aren't bad in some other sports.) I didn't think it w...

Re: You gotta love baseball

For more baseball fun, watch the recent Jomboy breakdown of the Brewers-Rays brawl. Classic baseball fight. (Or watch almost any Jomboy, like the one when Jesse Winker challenged the entire Angels dugout to a duel.)

Re: SDSU getting more than 1 million dollars of NIL to play in tournament

It's a good way to create an even wider gap beaten the haves and have nots. Why mess around with these pre season tournaments that get a couple good teams and a bunch of mediocre?

Re: Isaac Davis to USU?

I think the above conversation is one more example of the ongoing confusion of who pays what in athletics and NIL. The only way your tithing money is going to NIL is if The Church itself is funding the collective. (It might be, I suppose, but seems far fetched to me.) There are going to be gray area...
