Meh....

What is their level of participation in the NIL fiasco?

FWIW, I've been bugging CDC for a couple of years to put Ultra in Memorial Stadium as it is my lady friend's favorite drink.

Considering Chris' work on the new arena, the work with the Moody family, and now Budweiser, maybe he should be the next president of the US.

I'm not a Bud Light drinker, but these cans are cool. They will be available 9/1 statewide.

First official UT beer can since the 1975 schedule was printed on the back of Pearl Light cans.

 

You could argue this is a good omen for the football program: bud waited till the right moment to invest. They ain’t dummies.

Interesting and amazing
How much do we spend

Washington spent a lot of dough to go 8-5.

 

What's the source for this chart? Temple and San Jose State spent more? ********.

 

IDE ??.
It says right at the bottom with explanatoon
Data provided by OPE.ED.GOV

 

IDE,

The report probably factors in the first class airfare and hotel suites for all the school administrators, not to mention that those people didn't eat at Golden Corral.

 

Guess the perceived absurdity of the chart, by me anyway, blinded me to it. I'm going to more detail to be convinced. Washington spent more than $70k per player? Whatever.

 

It does seem like a lot.
I went to the site. It is under the Dept of Education.
Maybe Washington is scamming a ton of money by trying to hide it.

 

6721,

Maybe the numbers are driven up after the school is charged for missing towels and property damage.

 

And attorney fees.

 

Man, I love this guy.
VIP and MVP of the last handful of rocky years for the program.
True leader....would have loved to see what he might have done at QB with the leadership traits he posseses.
Love you, RJ.
We appreciate you.

Roschon Johnson has Texas football working overtime

 

Rain
Thanks for posting about RJ
i remember what happened the last time a player did that

 

Unless I am mistaken, Roschon graduated last year and is still here leading. His leadership during the "rebellion" can never be fully appreciated.

 

A wisely-led NFL team should certainly pick him up. Guys like that (talent+high character+leadership) will usually get the job done...whatever the job may be.
He is proving that on the 40...and I expect we will see him further prove it on the field his final year with good, hard running to boot.

 

Rain,

He learns from his mistakes. As a junior, he had Nederland beat but scored too quickly, leaving Nederland too much time on the clock. As a senior, he easily had the TD, but purposely went down inside the one to keep the clock running, and then scored on the next play leaving Nederland no time.

He is smart, articulate, has great leadership skills, and is an all-around great person. He is an excellent ambassador for The University both inside the locker room and outside the school. Pretty damn good QB, although he gave that up to help his team.

 

Is that an oxymoron?
