Can you buy a championship now?

[Brooklyndee]

uga kind of did this for awhile to get the thing rolling of course

& The suckguys just did...

Well the "hire Mario" argument was that actual coaching didn't matter if you had an overwhelming talent advantage. If that's true then I think the answer is absolutely.

Part of it being he would need to hit homeruns on the coordinator searches

Fingers crossed we at least have a ground rule double at both this year

You always could buy a championship. You think paying players didn't exist prior to NIL?

 

[Empirical Cane]

I don’t know all the intricacies of modern day college football, but with NIL, the portal, etc..

Are you basically able to buy a championship now - go after all the elite talent with no free agency rules, no salary cap, no waiting to transfer?

For instance, a team could lure any player by just paying him more than anyone else after a good year. Will we be bidding for recruits even before they step on campus?

How long before players have contracts?

It’s like baseball with no waiting. How long before there’s a 100 million dollar collage football team? Is this possible?

The Dodgers just spent over $1 billion dollars. It’s insane.

Thanks for the insight!

Came to post this exact sentence. Truth.

 

[TipDrill]

Yes, the competition at the top is tighter than ever. Right now, the teams willing to overspend are the ones who’ll keep pushing for titles—at least until new regulations come along to "level" the playing field.

It’s hilarious that people think CFB became a pay for play sport with NIL.

Nah baby. NIL made it public. It’s always been pay for play assuming you were part of the NCAA’s exclusive membership program.

Takes more than money. Ask A&M

The difference is the top level money has gone from $300K in 2019 (not certain if this was yearly or total) to $4M yearly for the top players in the NIL era.

Of course. When it’s legal, legitimate companies can turn the money spigot on instead of only under the table rich boosters

Can’t buy a championship, but obviously can put self in position for a playoff run.

You can buy talent but not culture and personalities/coaching ability

We need to get back to the old days where Nick Saban would use his endless charm and charisma to woo 18 year old kids to play football for him at Alabama.

 

[DadeBaby]

Yes Sir you can, TX is going to show you how. SMU pony Express and U Texas give alot without blinking. If your not in the bag game good luck lol

Cut Da Shhhyyyyttttt!
Rhett hasn’t paid anyone of any relevance, mostly Mid guys who were castaways at other programs.
What he has done is gotten them to produce, where I’m from we call that Coaching!
Big Respect to Rhett and the job he’s doing in Dallas!!

Is this wishful thinking or sarcasm, or both? Bc I’m sure every charismatic sentence ended in a Dollar sign.

Ohio Taint just did, and they still lost 2 games somehow.

 

[TheEye]

But everyone else is trying to buy players. Recruits won’t just gravitate to one school if another is still paying and they like other aspects of the program.

 

[Hurracanes]

Now?

You can buy coaches
