Re: How to End NIL?
As long as there is sufficient separation of collectives and universities, title ix is a non-issue. Sufficient separation of these 2 will happen. The rest is wishful thinking by fans of the havenots.

Re: How to End NIL?
Saw a great quote on this. Lawsuits will only define the boundaries of collectives. By then they'll know how to operate.

Re: How to End NIL?
Define working closely with and how they are preferentially favoring men other than marketplace value. Men in non-revenue sports have the same value as women. It's free market. It might destroy but it's free market. The one thing they could do is put college back in athletics. Increase the academic...

Re: How to End NIL?
It's not a title ix issue. Just because football dominates revenue doesn't mean it's unjust. It just means it has a market. In many cases, if football is removed, many sports would be dropped. Tiered athletics is probably the only answer or seperate football. It is a title ix issue if the universit...

Re: How to End NIL?
It's still free market enterprise. The only solution is some sort of structure that players agree to. I'm not sure that will be possible. Why would the players give anything up at this point? The courts have put the ball in their court and they have no motivation to give it up. Tiered football will...

Re: How to End NIL?
Yeah I agree. Why shouldn't athletes make money off their name and image? They have been getting screwed for decades with schools and the NCAA making gobs and gobs off money off them. If I was a student athlete and a local business wanted to have me in a commercial, why couldn't I be? It doesn't ha...

Re: Coach Sawvel benches 305
Since we can't elevate, perhaps we'll be fortunate enough on the next round of realignment to be placed with peers in which we can be competitive with the top of the conference. Apparently reduction in competition is the only avenue forward. Who knows what will happen in the next 5+ years....but fo...

Re: UW Block Grant Budget Amendment
What % of UW budget is untouchable or cannot be redirected to other expenditures? I don’t have the accounting from Office of State Lands and Investments. Pure guess is roughly around 30% of funds from Morrill Act lands. I’d argue that the constitutional provision must limit the legislature’s abilit...

Re: UW Block Grant Budget Amendment
Didn't you just say most of UW's money is from sources that aren't taxpayers and the money has to be spent at UW? If that's the case, what funding is the legislature threatening? Most of UW’s money is not from individual taxpayers. It’s from a combination of school lands, mineral royalties and mine...

Re: UW Block Grant Budget Amendment
So then the legislature can't do anything anyway? Why worry about it then? They just did. They appointed themselves head of curriculum and regulators of speech for the University. The legislature also controls the federal royalties (which is all of our coal production) and all severance tax dollars...

Re: Coach Sawvel benches 305
At this point... Sky is the limit if you have the money. My earlier question remains unanswered. Where had Wyoming historically ranked in conference recruiting? Is it consistent? I have no idea where to even find this information. If you don't know that is fine. Rivals has a database of that inform...

Just trying to get opinions on the all-time greatest Wyoming recruiting class... What " should " be hoped is not my concern. If you don't know...feel free to say so...I definitely don't know. Again, my sense is that Wyoming has always been a lower tier recruiting destination, but I really...

Re: UW Block Grant Budget Amendment
Is UW the only common school and what percentage of UW's funds are designated as such? If it can only can be used at UW, then this threat from the legislature is relatively toothless. The declining enrollment may be a symptom of a university that lost connection with the base they serve. 100% of Mo...

Re: Coach Sawvel benches 305
Wyoming has never really competed for the top of the conference so that should not be the hope or expectation.

You're right...6-8 is kicking ass. LMFAO. ?? Did I miss something?

Re: UW Block Grant Budget Amendment
Could that money not be used elsewhere? The declining enrollment is likely a symptom of large issues. A lot of it cannot be used for purposes other than to fund the ‘common schools.’ This was the agreement Wyoming made when it became a state and the federal government granted 2 sections of land on ...
