Recommended Posts

 

You may not have noticed the menu bar in the header.  There is a new item called “News.”  We invited you to explore this section.

 

When you click on the word “News,” you will see an index of multiple links to sports news sites for your enjoyment!

 

Sometimes there are articles of interest, but they really don't merit their own thread...Those articles will now go in here.  These postings will relate back to OBD in some way.

 

From now on, except for a very few circumstances, our threads will be just one page.  Advertising only appears on the first page and we want to make as much money as possible for the site.  The bonus in doing this is that it will be easier for everyone to move around the thread.

 

You will always be able to refer to the previous thread for reference.  To see the previous thread for this topic click Here.

 

Be sure to come back often...You just might find something of interest to ponder...

 

This Thread is for News Articles ONLY.  You can always start a new thread with any of these articles for discussion.

Kalen DeBoer welcomes revenue sharing, says having 'a more balanced playing field' will help Alabama

 

Full Quote:

 

“The regulation is really important to the game itself,” the 50-year-old Alabama head coach told On3. “That regulation where we’re all on an even playing field from the revenue-sharing standpoint helps us, just because now it comes down to what is important in recruiting, and that’s relationships and sharing your vision.

 

“People that want to be aligned with your vision, and then come to a place like Alabama that has the resources, the tradition. The regulation and having a more balanced playing field helps our situation. It allows us to get where it was at one point just a few years back. Where recruiting is real recruiting, not just someone who’s gonna put in the highest bid.”

 

NIL was an area where Alabama notably struggled, despite its considerable financial resources. After enjoying more than a decade of straight-forward recruiting under Nick Saban — "Hey, do you want to come compete for a national championship every year while developing in the sport's top NFL pipeline?" — the Tide were caught relatively flat-footed by the NIL shift in the head coach's later years.

In other words, the Alabama head coach would really like it if the system would passively benefit Alabama again.

 It’s certainly true that Alabama has never had an advantage financially over other schools in the past and always recruited on a level playing field. 😂😂😂😂😂.
 

 My gosh what has Debochery been smoking. Whatever it is I certainly need some. I hope it’s not to expensive.

Sources: FSU, Clemson expected to reach settlement with ACC

 

Florida State and Clemson will vote Tuesday on an agreement that would ultimately result in the settlement of four ongoing lawsuits between the schools and the ACC and a new revenue-distribution strategy that would solidify the conference's membership for the near future, sources told ESPN on Monday.

 

The ACC board of directors is scheduled to hold a call Tuesday to go over the settlement terms. In addition, Florida State and Clemson have both called board meetings to present the terms at noon ET Tuesday. All three boards must agree to the settlement for it to move forward, but sources throughout the league expect a deal to be reached.

Who is going to step up at QB this year. I don't remember hearing about a high-visibility transfer so I am assuming it will be the transfer QB from UCLA? Any other insights?

 

Whomever it is, that Dude needs to be one of Jon's top `10 step-ups for sure!
