Re: Transfer Portal Open

You mean playing a sport you love while getting a free education aint enough?? Thats getting screwed? Yes, the athletes were receiving SOME compensation, but, in many cases, it was not nearly equitable enough. Some athletes weren't even getting much of an education at all. This isn't even a point o...

Re: Transfer Portal Open

The schools - particularly those in the traditional power conferences - are largely responsible for the chaos that now reigns by playing their criminally greedy games for decades. Now, the players and their reps are over-correcting way, way too far. Sadly for fans and supporters, there doesn't seem...

Re: Transfer Portal Open

Yep, playing for your "dream school" is over just wait for the interviews where the kid says how he grew up in Ohio and always wanted to be a Buckeye....his parents and grandparents were Buckeyes....but Michigan tacked on an additional half million to his NIL and he's now a Wolverine :rol...

Re: Transfer Portal Open

One has to seriously wonder about the future of college football (and hoops) with this nonsense. the future of college football is it is already dead. we just cant see it as clearly yet. what made college football great is gone and never will come back and I expect to see a steep decline in popular...

Re: In Memoriam: David Roselle

Remembered this this weekend, one of the fond memories of Roselle was at the 2023 Spring Game and him chatting up soon to transfer (or already had) Shawn Johnson down on the field while watching that spring game. Good salesmanship by the University President. i often saw a lot of vitriol to him on ...

Re: Hens Offseason

hire a new coach. MI has proven to not be the guy.... I suggest you start a gofundme page to pay off the 5 years remaining on the contract, 2.6M or so. a guy who has been at UD this long with little to moderate success is not who we should be aspiring to....he's bee here 9 years with barely above ....

Re: Intterview With President Assanis

How many students from outside UD's region are going to want to come to UD and pay out-of-state tuition with limited financial aid? You are going to have to explain why a student from Texas or Tennessee would have more limited financial aid, than the students from New Jersey currently do. i think t...

Re: Chrissi Rawak named AD of the Year

Can’t be hiring the wsoc wife to be the new women’s ice hockey coach. Going to cause problems for the school. Universities hire couples all the time. Want to hire a great professor? Better find a "position" for their spouse. Our campus is littered with couples. Slight challenge having the...

Re: News Journal Article Today 03/20/24

you are so wrong in your "spitballing". I'm not woke but the ladies in sports have become quite appealing for many even though MOST don't match the usual physical advantage of men. Actually all you have to do is go to the golf course and watch lovely ladies score on the course 8) . I'd ve...

Re: News Journal Article Today 03/20/24

Unfortunately our UD women's bball team is not even covered on delawareonline. Whether it is due to the paper's limited resources or the team's poor record/following remains unanswered. This snub certainly doesn't benefit our women's recruiting :( perhaps it's because, no matter how much the woke c...

Re: UMass to the MAC

Saban probably got out before the players end up making more than their coaches…couldn’t let his ego take a hit like that. :lol: I think it was Dabo Swinny (but I wouldn’t bet on my memory about the name, but it was one of the big-time football coaches) who said he didn’t offer players huge money o...
