  1. Thanks for the post. I believe most of us kinda agree with you but the genie is out of the bottle and there is little the NCAA can do. The Supreme Court has ruled and the NIL stands like it or not.

     

    As far as the players being paid I believe they do deserve some kind of compensation more than just a scholarship and this is why. Any other student who doesn't have enough money for even spending cash to do things others can, have the opportunity to get a side job. Student athletes do not, their job is their sport and most of them, if not all, don't have any extra time because of their studies.

     

    As far as NIL and the Ducks I believe there is a program where money goes into a pool and then a equal stipend will be distributed to all athletes.

     

    Each individual can also sign their own with help from an advisor or their own agent. I don't have a problem with this setup, as I understand it. I like how it won't just be the few stars getting paid which I believe could have a derisive effect on the team.

     

    Yes their will be schools that have an advantage but it's been that way for a long time, just under the table. Some got caught and paid a terrible price, at least now that shouldn't happen again.

     

    However it proceeds it's going to be interesting. I just know I can't wait to see OBD in the spring and the 22 season. I believe we are going to have a great team.

  2. I don't know much when it comes to this but I know I don't want our games being played at 9 a.m.. Just for more eyes from the East Coast, South and Mid West. We didn't need them in the 2010's when we played for 2 nattys and I don't believe we need them now. 

     

    I also don't want to play anyone who won't play us H/H games. I don't see any advantage for us to do that. 

     

    Let's get more of those teams coming out here and see how they do away from their fans and time zone. I believe if that would happen with our best against their best it would level out about which conferences are better.

     

    I know the last 8 yrs haven't been good for the PAC but now with us, USC and Utah we just need a couple more teams to step up with resources, administration and finally product on the field.

     

    As I have posited before the advantages the rest of the country has over us are many and maybe to much to overcome. If so, so be it but let's not go down without a fight.

     

    Go Ducks Fly High  Go PAC Play Well
