Indiana also spent a ton of money on its roster. They spend a solid amount but not a ton. Spending over $10M isn't a lot anymore? Let's be transparent. https://247sports.com/longformarticle/college-football-nil-collective-leaders-for-2025-ncaa-estimates-nations-top-25-spenders-241949240/#2564343 $1...

I'd like to get back to the level of GS, CCU, and Marshall before I worry about the Indiana's of CFB.

Before 2025, Indiana had won three total bowl games. They won 3 this year.

No room for Barnes but sign James. Either Barnes was “too expensive” for the returns or sitting out the last three games showed some character flaws.

He has a chance to be one of the greats, but crowning him after two years at Indiana isn't something I'm willing to do personally.

Crowning him one of the best ever, does this mean top 5, top 20? Seems premature and recency bias.

Indiana didn't either until 15 months ago. This is the new CFB, hire the right coach, give them $10M+ to retain talent for 1-2 years and win a title. If a program like Indiana can win one there are 40 programs that can. In a way NIL/TP opened the door for 20ish programs to compete with the 10-15 us...

Let’s be clear here. There are not 40 Cignetti’s out there. I’d say there is only one. Money and the portal are part of it….. Cignetti did not do this with 4 and 5 star players….. he did it mostly with 3 star players…. and getting them to play so efficiently…. is HIS secret sauce. You do not see th...

Barnes wanted to come back. Unfortunately, he didn’t want to come back until 2 days ago instead of 2 months ago. His spot was filled. I mean, the way he balled out in the Birmingham Bowl…sorry, the way he bailed out. He bailed on two games before that as we fought for bowl eligibility. Selfish.

UnCC gets a had share of the AAC deal, stepchild.

This has scorned woman all over it.

Vintage App basketball. First decent crowd of the season and we lay an absolute egg. 17-36, my goodness.

Rough start, no offense.

Without regulation that $10M won’t make us competitive s P4s.

AI summary, probably some errors. Outgoing (48) P4 (4) Porter - Rutgers Manuel - Colorado Floyd - Colorado Swann - Miss St. G6 (11) Davis - Tulsa Littlejohn - FIU Kohl - FIU Funk - B Green Farmer - ODU Ratliff - NT De Freitas - NT Poff - NT Alexander - UNCC Hamlett - ECU Gamble - ECU FCS/D2 (9) Mack...

6th best class in the SBC, talk about an anti-endorsement of those services.

NIL paying players to leave.

Gambling paying players to lose.

Common theme, $ ruining the game.

Never did try their hottest wings.
