The same level of offense as domestic violence.

The beauty of the balloon law, if passed (it won't), will be that a group of hens getting together to plan a gender reveal (or some other bullshit party) will be guilty of Conspiracy to Commit Unlawful Release of Balloons if they agree to release balloons in excess of the limit. 😎
Just phenomenal uniforms for both teams in this game even if I don’t care for either one. Would prefer ND as an all Big Ten final would be 🤮
Nice rebound to what started out as a snoozefest. Hard, but not totally impossible, to hate on ND with Freeman at the helm.
There are quite a few Kentuckians who could use a good pimp-slapping if this message board is any indication. No balloon ever needed releasing, imo.
@legalbeagle123 who was the sponsor? He or she (let's be honest, it is a he) needs a donation.

Balloon releases are some of the most ignorant memorials/celebrations out there. I hope this law passes and bans them. If you release balloons to represent some sort of significant event, I hope you get an anal cyst.
Balloon trash is very harmful to livestock and wildlife when it inevitably falls and become litter.

I'll take my crow. I dogged the hell out of them for this hire. Seems like a helluva dude and it's no fluke run. They ran the gauntlet. Hopefully they finish it off.
I’m not even sure how you make a good hire in college sports anymore. If guys like Jimbo Fisher and Brian Kelly don’t work out, then just hire whoever TF you want and cross your fingers, I guess.
I like making "Small Game James" comments to my Penn State buddies, but are there really 12 coaches better than Franklin? Dude won at Vandy for Christ's sake.
That's why he still has a job. He is organized, can recruit, use money wisely and has them competitive, at the highest level, to the point you don't look for another coach. Because, as PTI said, you don't know who is going to do better who already has a similar job.
ESPN had an article out today re: Congress looking to solve the NIL situation. One piece of it caught my eye:
"Several industry sources said they expect the biggest SEC and Big Ten schools, such as Alabama, Texas, Ohio State and Michigan, to demand a bigger proportion of their conferences' television earnings when new broadcast deals are negotiated in the early 2030s -- a move that would drive another wedge between the haves and have-nots."
If this occurs isn't the move for all the other schools to tell Bama, Texas, Ohio State and Michigan to kick rocks and they're out and have fun playing each other 4 times each per year? Texas tried to pull this nonsense with the Longhorn Network.

Back in 2010, James Franklin was the AHC at Maryland under Ralph Friedgen, who was fired. Some people thought they should have hired Franklin, but they instead hired Randy Edsall. And Vandy hired Franklin. People laughed at Vandy for hiring a coach who MD had deemed not fit to take their job after being a longtime assistant. The bottom line is it is really difficult to determine who will or will not be a good coach. I mean, I thought Marcus Freeman was a bad coach just a few months ago. What happened?
Timing and luck. Luke Fickell was in line to be next ND or OSU head coach. Freeman jumps from him to asst under Brian Kelly. He made his own luck and Fickell is wallowing away at Wisconsin.
Smokescreen and clickbait it seems like to me. UNC's NIL offer won't even match ours due to everything they're having to bankroll for Belichick.
We're the better system fit for him, he engages with our fans more online and rumors are he's already signed an NIL deal with us.
They're selling him on Hubert being there one more year but why would he want to play for that guy. They could miss the tournament for the 2nd time in 4 years.
Their class is trash so far for next year (two 4 stars) and they've swung and missed on a lot of recruits for 25. Also, Jackson and Davis will be gone so they could be a dumpster fire next year unless they a pull a lot of rabbits out of their hats via the portal.
They might have a better shot at him if they fired Hubert and hired someone like Oats (but with their insistence on staying in the family their dumbasses would probably hire Kenny Smith or something like that). He'll commit before anything like that would happen anyway.
They're saying he could be their Ian Jackson but they are totally different players.
Just doesn't add up and I would think they'd have to significantly beat our NIL offer given all the other advantages we have and they haven't.
There are a few media members thinking they lead so their fans are rolling with it but I don't think there's evidence to it, it's just hunches. Their fans are rolling with it because of how desperate they are but there was Jasper/UNC smoke late too. Travis Branham is one guy saying it but he was wrong on Jasper too.
One other interesting note is that Gilbert Arenas' son who's a top 5 recruit (SG) in the 26 class may reclassify to 25 and we may get him too. That would give us the #1 class next year by adding he with Wilson if that happened. Oweh could be a hindrance to Arenas coming though if he comes back,
I think they're telling recruits he'll be there next year (whatever that's worth).
I also heard that he was considering leaving and going to the NBA to be an assistant (not sure when).
That’s way too many freshmen imo. Would much much much rather have Oweh back than a freshman
