More Thoughts on NIL

T
If I were Stoops/Barnhart, or anyone of actual intellectual capacity at UK, I would seek NIL advice from fans, the QB Club, boosters, etc.

Start an NIL "suggestion box" on the internet.

Have some fun: think outside the box!

How 'bout NIL beer, and other goods available for sale at every sporting event? (That is stunningly simple, and hardly "outside the box.")

How 'bout 50 cent dedicated NIL toilets? Seriously: set aside one pay-to-pee/sh!t stall with a place to put two quarters in, and place the team logo of whoever we are playing in the bottom of the NIL toilet. I'd gladly give 50 cents to piss on UT and U of L every-other-year.

Yes, NIL will largely be funded by large donors, but find ways to raise nickel-and-dime money, as it can stack up pretty quickly.

Are my ideas "corny."

Yeah.

But wait 'till you see what I leave behind in the NIL toilet!!!!

Hey, how about a "coming and going approach?" Sell NIL beer at an extra dollar, and each beer cup has a bar code that allows your use of a few NIL dedicated Heads? Market it as "Drink to UK, and piss on everyone else!"

Are lottery-like drawings allowed?

Have one each football game, at 5 bucks a ticket, to be drawn in the end of the third quarter.

In short, we all need to quit bitchin' about NIL and have some damn fun with the new reality of college sports. It beats the hell out of the old days when bags of money were being paid to athletes.

Yeah, it's terrible that UK basketball was so bad for 4+ years that UK fans couldn't even watch it. I know there were many who couldn't bear to watch it. And Calipari's answers became so cliche that it just infuriated fans. Mark Pope is such a breath of fresh air. Not only does he actually love Kentucky from the heart, he also loves the fans and respects them. He knows and understands the assignment and he isn't going to make weak excuses if he's not getting the job done.

And I'll add this regarding a game like this one tonight. With Cal teams, we never could feel any comfort about any games. If they were coming off a big win, a let down was very possible. And even with a bad team coming to Rupp, we couldn't have much comfort because we always seemed to allow some unknown kid go 8-12 from 3 and beat the Cats for a "once in a lifetime" kind of game. How many guys had "once in a lifetime" games against UK over the last few years? Too many.

I'm not saying we will never be upset by some no-name directional school under Pope, but I don't think it will happen very often. When his teams should win, I expect that they WILL win. So, I'm feeling pretty good about tonight. :D

Didn't want to create a whole thread on this but you guys have any bad or annoying boss stories?

I've had my share but my current one who's a nice guy and all but man, he doesn't have enough to do so he's constantly in and out of the office of people who are actually working. Drives me nuts. The highest paid do the least and mess with those who produce. Very similar to the government.

Possibly use the time he is in your office to discuss ways for you to advance to higher position. Hopefully, he will become a supportive ally.

They got what they wanted out of it. They wanted to be able to call him a "convicted felon" for campaign purposes. they can't do that now.

Would like to know if this is the usual weekly shred visit you see at any office that handles documents they want securely destroyed (which is very common), or a special visit.

But many people who read that tweet have no idea that offices shred daily and have vendors that come to pick up the stuff. They just have no idea. So they believe that a truck like this parked outside of a building means someone is up to no good and word travels fast. This is what amounts for "news" these days.

I agree but how much better of a receiver he would be if we had a coach that could develop a line and a qb to get him the damn ball . Not to many football games are won due to kick off returns

True.

Frankly, after the Ole Miss bomb, we seem not have tried it much. But that could be the line, again, not allowing enough time.

I cannot imagine how he was not jailed for doing that to an 11yo daughter. It is in keeping with his character. It is FACT that he swims nude at his homes and those on his detail will tell you that he would walk around nude in the house. If you look at the Delaware house, above the garage there is a glass enclosed sun room...where he enjoys traipsing au natural. He is a pervert and it is not even debatable. In fairness they would reposition the females on the security team when Joe decided to go on one of his exhibitionist walks.

She is as much a train wreck as her brother. She has been found doing "white powder" on top of the family washing machine. Their family is screwed up BECAUSE of the big guy. He is a horribly flawed individual. The acorns don't fall far from the tree.

💯. It’s easy to connect the dots unless you just don’t want to. The child sniffing & groping, the creepy looks & comments are all dead giveaways. And, the fact that he can’t control himself points to a serious problem. He, himself, recently admitted that his staff had told him to tone it down around women & children.

And, he acknowledged that it was bc he made ppl feel uncomfortable. So, he knows that it’s an issue & that ppl question & mock him for it. And, he knows that every move he makes is being filmed. But, the creepy behavior continues. That’s a guy with a disorder that he can’t control. Or, doesn’t want to control. And, he thinks he’s above the law. I’d be more surprised if he wasn’t a pedo who also abused his own children. He’s a walking red flag.
