    Please do provide a link for that $16M. Quick google search seems to show that as an estimate for the 2023-2024 season. You know, last year. 

    Not to mention this is more bringing up Michigan when it wasn't part of the original point. Weird how they just live rent free in your head....

    Well Pecker I’m going to say your googling skills are lacking, but I normally don’t take the time to do someone else’s work, here you go. . .

    Wtf is sports grid? Again, a number with no source. Just estimated "funds". Which, again, were reported/estimated as part of the 2023-2024 season. Follow?

    But you’re just fine using their $20 million figure for the Buckeyes? Hypocrite much?

    Jesus you aren't following along at all, huh?

    I don't care that teams are using NIL. I support the players getting all the money they can. 

    I'm calling out the hypocrisy in Day, who's complaining about tampering, when it's widely believed around the CFB world that Downs and Judkins were technically tampered with. He's also made some "it's the wild west out here!" comments about NIL when he's clearly benefiting from the current state of things. 

    You following along now? 

    And, again, you haven't provided any reputable source that Michigan spent $16M on their roster LAST season. But I know reputable sources aren't really your thing.

    Then show me your source showing OSU spent 20 million on NIL.

    One, OSU didn't "spend" anything directly. That's not how NIL works. We might get to players just getting paid by universities (probably not a bad idea), but we're not their yet. 

    Literally OSUs AD is the source....

    https://247sports.com/article/ohio-state-football-players-received-around-20-million-in-nil-deals-this-past-year-ad-ross-bjork-says-234117440/

    https://sports.yahoo.com/as-player-pay-reaches-new-heights-how-will-ohio-state-navigate-uncharted-waters-134419119.html?guccounter=1

    In fact, the university is rich enough that its donor-led collective and brand affiliates disbursed to Buckeyes football players “around $20 million” this past year, said Ross Bjork, the Ohio State athletic director. In all likelihood, that figure ranks first in America.

    So you’re using 247 sports as a reference?

    Never heard of them.

    Or it could be that you don’t care about NIL payments?

    Of it could be you’re only concerned about websites reporting that OSU spent 20 million on its players while refusing to believe that Michigan spent 16 million?

    Or maybe you’re refusing to believe that there are other universities spending more than OSU?

    Maybe I’m wasting my time?

    I'll go with hoping you're being purposely dense to distract from the original topic as much as possible, as you've realized you've got nothing. 

    Fyi, talking college football and not knowing of 247 is like trying to talk international policy and not knowing about China. Or healthcare and not knowing what a hospital is. 

    I imagine you want the last word to continue muddying this whole back and forth. Go for it.

    It’s literally the train he either denies or he doesn’t see coming.

    The funny thing is, the NCAA wasn’t tipped off by anyone at OSU…it came from Ann Arbor! ?

    Funny Ohio State recruiting story...

    David Sanders was a top recruit in the 2025 recruiting class, a five star OTackle from North Carolina. All the southern universities were hot after him, then Ohio State got involved. After some time, it was down to Tennessee, Ohio State, Georgia and Clemson. As the early signing date approached in December, it was down to Tennessee and Ohio State.

    Sanders chose to sign with the Volunteers. Then, a few weeks later, out of nowhere it was reported that Sanders and his family were all in Columbus visiting Ohio State... "Is he going to flip?" Everyone who covered Ohio State was caught off guard, there had been no leaks. 

    But sometime during the weekend, Ohio State started getting hip to the fact that Sanders and his family was just using them to get more NIL money out of Tennessee, so they went to him and informed him that they were lowering their NIL offer to him. ?

    Oh, college football in 2025.

    2022.

    The Buckeyes didn't lose in 2021 because of cheating.  They got handled up front.

    They lost in 2023 because of a couple early turnovers and a piss-poor season long (non) rotation along the defensive front.  A giant coaching blunder.

    They didn't lose this past November because of cheating.  Day simply said he was going to run headfirst into a brick wall because he was stronger.   

    2022 is the one I really have an enormous fucking problem with. They didn't get handled along the trenches, the defense played well the entire 1st half and, apart from a couple plays, great in their run fits.   The coaches had some questionable calls early as well.      But even then, going back to chart plays it was pretty painfully obvious by the end of the Bucks 2nd drive, and gearing up into their 3rd drive, that fuckery was about.
