    NIL Incentive

    Historically, definitely not. I agree, but that is not what is going to get these kids to sign. They want to hear "You are getting X amount of money". I'd venture to say a lot of schools are overpromising on these deals, and then figuring out a way to only pay what they have available...

    NIL Incentive

    I have a co-worker whose son plays(played) for an SEC team. He actually just entered the portal last week. I talked to him about it a couple of days ago and found out some stuff that I didn't know regarding the NIL stuff. Apparently, just because you agree to a certain $ amount, doesnt't mean...

    BREAKING Colin Hitschler has been informed he will not return to the Crimson Tide next year.

    Is Grubb a pipe dream here, or is there a realistic shot?

    Greg Byrne calls for Alabama fans to 'fight back'

    When I saw the email from Byrne yesterday, I just rolled my eyes and hit DELETE. I will not not be donating my money to buy some player why has never stepped foot on a field wearing Crimson, and has no loyalty to the team. Now, if a player comes to Bama and excels on the field, I may buy a...

    Questions about Milroe.

    As a long-suffering Raiders fan, I hope you are wrong, but this is so on par with what the organization would do.

    Questions about Milroe.

    I like Milroe, as I think we all do, and want to see him be successful. But the performance Saturday was atrocious, for whatever reason. His accuracy has never been great, but receivers have often bailed him out to make his numbers appear better. He's not a QB that needs to be throwing it 45...

    Former SEC Ref Tom Ritter Umped Our Softball Game Last Night

    I appreciate that. This is my 6th season coaching our Middle School program. It's a volunteer position, since I don't teach, but I love the game and just want to give the girls a chance to be successful at the high school level. I started the program in 2019. An 8th grader from that team signed...

    Former SEC Ref Tom Ritter Umped Our Softball Game Last Night

    He still works for the SEC, he’s just not on the field anymore. He’s in the booth now, and works as a supervisor/evaluator. I’m gonna try and talk to him more the next time I run into him. Just didn’t have much time during our game. Like I said, he’s a really...

    Former SEC Ref Tom Ritter Umped Our Softball Game Last Night

    He did a really good job, and took it seriously. Strike zone was a little low, but he was consistent with it, so I’m good with that. Actually communicated with the coaches. A lot of the umps we run into can be jerks, and are just out there for the paycheck. I doubt he needs the money, and...

    Former SEC Ref Tom Ritter Umped Our Softball Game Last Night

    Me, him and the field ump were talking between innings. He said “Go online and look, LSU and Auburn fans hate me.” I said “It’s okay, us Bama fans weren’t too fond of you, either.” He did say he called 7 Bama-LSU games, and it was 4-3. A friend of mine said...

    Former SEC Ref Tom Ritter Umped Our Softball Game Last Night

    Thought this was pretty cool. I coach Middle School softball just outside Nashville. This guy was the home plate ump for us the last 2 nights. The first night I was like “This guy looks real familiar” but I couldn’t place him. Finally, last night I said “ I know you from...

    Nick Saban added to College GameDay

    Coach was on McAfee's show every Thursday during the season, and seemed to have a good time with it. Even sent McAfee a personalized autographed jersey, which he displays prominently on his set. He has tremendous respect for Coach, so I think they will get along just fine.

    Transfer Portal 2023-2024...

    The NCAA reported $1.28B in revenue for the 2022-23 fiscal year. Over half of which was distributed back to member schools. $669M was distributed back to the 363 Division 1 schools. They won't go away without a fight. I can see the Power 4 conferences splitting away in football, but everything...
