did we decide that unlimited transfer and immediate eligibility is not in season stuff!!!!???? i know someone threw out there a while ago the thought of immediate eligibility could mean someone who transfers right before conference tournaments and can play in the tournaments. College football and M...

People are coming with NIL excuses for BA. This is a BA problem. We have not been a winning team since 2021. At this point, we are trying to time BA and his buyout on when to hire the next coach. When losing, recruits are more willing to leave. Everybody ragged on Matt Wells for having very similar...

Blake "coached Coop hard" and sitting in the stands right behind the team all last season, it was obvious that he got ripped into much more often than any other QBs. Granted, this is only observation from the stands and I never heard what Blake was screaming at Coop about, but I was more shocked th...

Now that the draft is near, it reminds me that I was fairly critical of Love's potential as an NFL QB. I thought he had a horrible senior year at USU and his poor play cost the team. He also had some off-field issues. I didn't think he was mobile enough to be successful in the NFL. Turns out the Pa...

I guarantee you that Petras starts, Hillstead redshirts, and that Barnes regrets his decision to come to Utah State. Legas has never been wanted by BA, and he should have just transferred. He may play this year, but only when injuries leave no other choice. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him leave ...

There was a time when the student part of the equation was really important. I miss that time. It was never important. We just pretended like it was.

Interesting personnel decisions tonight for the Cavs. Merrill shot well and had good numbers/stats and had 18 points in 24 minutes yesterday. Today he plays 4 minutes. A match-up issue? Donovan Mitchell sat out against the Jazz but played against the Suns. That would have opened more minutes for be...

I sure hope Calhoun is one hell of salesman and recruiter/broker. Danny always struck me as the used car salesman that would tell you what you wanted to hear but the dude got it done this last year! I sure hope Calhoun can reload cause it looks like we are going down the same path as last year hope...

I hope Calhoun follows Blake’s example and refuses to play the transfer portal game. If you enter, we need to move on replacing you. The longer we wait on players to decide the less quality options are out there to fill their void. I totally agree with this! If a player enters the transfer portal.....

Does Utah State make money on basketball? Technically speaking nil cash doesn’t come from the university. It’s from donors and businesses. So doesn’t directly impact the program earnings. Indirectly as people will shift a portion of their donations from the program/school to athletes who could leav...

Super happy Isaac is staying. At least we won't have to hear all the time on broadcasts that the Aggies returned 0 points from the prior year. I do think that Isaac has a lot of potential. I thought he should have played quite a bit more. I would not be surprised to see Isaac as 12 point and 7 rebo...

I think it was Ohio state putting $13m in for football. Is basketball $5m for the bigger schools. $10-$20m is a lot of funding each year without a solid roi Per Trilly, most P5s have between 1.5 and 2 million for basketball NIL. Obviously some have more. We are missing the point when we talk about ...

It stings a little less knowing that Coach met with each player and that NIL was discussed with each of them. Or worse, Coach met and we don’t have the bag to even consider staying. Hopefully not, but a big man like Osobor will demand $300-500k likely. I bet more, but he’ll live to regret it. He wi...

I’ll be honest this is the least excited I have been about a hire. I’m usually a homer guys, I’ve never felt so negative about the direction of USU Athletics as I do now, well since the Arslainian power punt. Someone help, what am I not seeing here? Sadly we didn’t choose to invest in our future we...

I wanted Todd's Pizza Cafe, and our AD went Michael Scott and ordered Pizza by Tod. Underrated comment :thanks: There are some odd things about the hire. 22 years and 400 wins in Toledo and he never receives and/or accepts a bigger offer until now in an area 1500 miles from where he's lived in a pl...

Two others to be considered. (They may have already been mentioned, and if so I am sorry. I don’t see everything on this board. ) Two guys I would like to see on the list. Madsen , CAL and before that SUU. And Pope, BYU. They are really good coaches. Great recruiters. From Utah, not too old. Would ...

Contracts are going to be needed. If the NIL money being given to an athlete is tied to a years, games played, etc. If they are being treated as a professional athlete then they shouldn't be able to hit free agency every year unless they are signing 1 year agreements. All of that requires congressi...

Can't go back in time but man we were late to the party in jumping on the NIL train. Doesn't matter. We've still done well. Things will settle and we'll figure it out. I do worry about putting too much pressure on your limited pool of big doners. I don't know if it's possible, but the University ne...

Here's a quote from Eric Laub in a Tribune Article: “The frustrating part is there are so many slimy agents and third-party people that will reach out to players that we have, both football and basketball, right now.

Its not like they have a lot to choose from. Ma...
