Why would Maryland be any better, they have football, Big East doesn't.Not crazy about the revenue sharing model in the SEC. Believe it when I see it.

Or an athletic directorHard for me to believe he’d be interested in Maryland. Willard said they’re way behind on NIL and they don’t even have a dedicated practice facility.
Barnhart wants to know what this buyout is you speak of.He has an $18 million dollar buyout….NOBODY is paying that. Bama has nothing to worry about.
When you pretend you are quoting somebody but you are completely inaccurate, and putting your own words, you are actually the one moving the goal post of the discussion.You and the other contrarians last year:
"I'm not surprised Oats turned us down. He has shared custody with his ex wife and can't leave the state. Plus, Alabama's boosters are all-in on Oats. They can match anything Kentucky offers players. The basketball blueblood days are over."
You and the other contrarians this year:
"It makes sense that Oats would consider Maryland (ignores custody stuff entirely). The boosters are abandoning him and going back to making football the priority. After all, Alabama isn't a blueblood in basketball."![]()
Wasn’t Cal using same strategy after a defeat in NCAA? Weren’t roomers of nba or other team surfacing so he gets an extension or in Oates case NIL money?
