Not even top 10
Sad
Obviously Oregon isn't ready to compete with the BIG time programs.
lol at those LSU Coon Asses pooling their penny jars together to compete with the Texas Schools for the hearts and minds of 17yo boys.
15 of Oregon’s 23 starters started somewhere else
Sounds like they’re getting an absolute phenomenal return on their small investments
Ohhhh look, it's the dipshit who claimed Lanning would be a bust.
I've posted this list directly from the NCAA site. The Husky crew much prefers the On3 list and intel from specific beat writers.
I really wonder if anybody really knows who is spending what. I'm pretty sure nobody here does.
There has to be plenty of money being spent by private parties and as far as I know there is no reporting requirements. Near certainty that nobody here knows.
I highly doubt Oregon isn't in the top 4 or 5 on total roster comp.
Again, I don't care. All the big programs are looking to "buy" a NC.
That's reasonable. But I keep asking the question, and the people here who pound the podium with the most indignation speculate, cite an On3 list that tells you their methodology is based on social media accounts and then go crickets when somebody cites an NCAA estimate. As a lawyer, I have learned to care more about what I don't know than what I [think] I do know. That has kept my ass out of the frying pan more times than I can count.
The agenda for the narrative is pretty clear, and I agree with the few reasonable voices here that it's sour grapes and petty.
But, while I'm bothering, I'll ask again: does anyone have an authoritative source for NIL spend? I'd actually like to know. Apparently it's been much harder to get data out of USC, Miami and other privates, and as you might expect, I'm super curious to know how much Miami has spent (rumored to be a lot) for a team with no defensive backs and average linebackers. A program that produced Ray Lewis, Jonathan Vilma, Jesse Armstead, Michael Barrow, Dan Morgan, Jon Beason, Winston Moss, Denzel Perryman, DJ Williams and a boat load more than that can't buy a fucking linebacker and has pay Cuog Maiugoia or whatever? A program that produced Michael Irvin, Andre Johnson, Santana Moss, Eddie Brown, Bret Perriman, Reggie Wayne, Brian Blades, Travis Benjamin and again a boat load of others can't buy an elite WR and have to deal with personal foul factory Jacolby George? Anyway, I digress.
This list has Indiana out spending Oregon and Washington. Washington is only a million behind Oregon. Nobody knows nothing
I wish they were #1 to boil piss around the country.
The SEC never apologizes. And never will I.
One of the lessons here would be, if this list is even remotely accurate, that you can spend a lot and still suck. Arkansas? Kentucky? Not surprising in the least that they can get money in the door. But they're not that good. So, what's worse? Not spending and hence not trying and sucking? Or spending and trying and still sucking?
I really don't have an answer. I guess I'd rather try and fail than sit smugly on the sidelines, arms folded, ready to role out my faggitty ass "I wasn't trying anyway, so whatever" when I don't win. And that is really the posture of a lot of doogs. Other fan bases have them too. Don't twist. But I hang around here for football and nowhere else.
if this is full collective (basketball too) and not just football, Kentucky and Arkansas being on here makes a lot more sense. also msu and Indiana
that makes sense.
never once said that
Fake News
I said it was a bold move hiring a guy that has never been a head coach on any level in his life and only a college defensive coordinator for two years
I’m sorry you hate it that I post facts….
Of course Oregon is buying a NC. Every program with a pulse is. Don’t let the ranking fool you, I’m as sure as my penis still tingles for Kate Beckinsale that there is a shit ton of unreported private money used on Oregon’s roster. But to be ashamed of it is ridiculous. Your school is either buying a NC, or not, and probably never sniffing it. Times have changed, like it or not. Get on the train, or let the train go by and bitch about how the game isn’t good anymore. Oregon chooses not to be the latter.
Washington allegedly joined the B1G to stay in the game. Then punted
yeah if you want to win, you have to play the game
doesn't mean the game isn't completely fucked up
Of course there was no crying like a little bitch last year about how the game was "fucked up." Is the game fucked up or does you team fucking suck Bill?
I've been saying how fucked up the sport was for years, Blob. With your 6 million posts on here, surely you've read a few, keyboard warrior.
