    They will have to commit to spending more to do so. Along with the QB position the OL is one of the most expensive in terms of NIL and profit sharing from TV deals and ticket sales. I am going to assume that UW is splitting the $20mm that they can spend evenly to MBB, women’s volleyball and football. I don’t believe there is any investment of that $20mm in any other sports other than the men’s and women’s hockey teams. There maybe some going to wrestling but I doubt it is all that much. Probably something like 50% football, 35% MBB, 10% women’s volleyball, 3% hockey and then whatever is left to the other sports maybe if it doesn’t go to the football program or MBB. I believe the $20mm profit sharing is going up to $25mm but I can’t remember exactly if that is the number or if it is more. The majority of schools have football getting 60% or more of that profit sharing from TV deals and ticket sales. The profit sharing with the players is separate from NIL money.

    About a month ago I had the Lions easily walking into the playoffs and winning the division now they are easily walking out of the playoffs and finishing third and possibly fourth in the division.

    I got the norovirus last Christmas. Thankfully no sickness this year. The norovirus is seriously the worst thing I have ever gotten. The worst 48 hours of my life by far. That is one nasty virus.

    LOL. How are we supposed to know they were going to onside kick.

    He has never posted anything greater than 0 for OAA in his entire career in RF. He gets horrible reads and jumps on balls. He basically makes the plays he should make anything with an out probability >80% anything below that and he is allowing hits in RF. That is not someone the Brewers are going to stick in RF. Again his best position is in LF or at DH. He is only a RF because he is playing for the Angels anywhere else he is a DH or LF. He should be playing in LF if he is playing any of the OF spots.

    None have all that much value hence why I said not enough.

    Adell in RF would be a huge mistake. While he is very athletic he just doesn't get good reads on balls hit into the OF and his arm is below average for a RF. You would need to have a prime Lorenzo Cain playing CF to make up for Adell's defense in RF and Frelick is no where near a prime Cain in CF. His best position is in LF and that isn't really a good place to put him either he is still a negative in LF defensively. His best position defensively is at DH. You would need to give up more than Mitchell to get Adell and at that point it just wouldn't be worth it for an all bat and no defense LF/DH. He is about a 1 WAR player which I wouldn't want to give up all that much for him. Power wise he is nice but everything else is just average or way below average.

    Can only play who you can play.

    You want Williams to beat well he just did!!!

    This is a Yankees or Red Sox fan level proposal. You have to give up more than that for Duran. Probably closer to what the Brewers gave up to get Yelich and your proposal comes no where close to that.

    Sure but if they are only getting Giannis for 1.5 years they are not going to bid as highly. I still believe if he gets traded it is a couple of first round picks and an expiring contract or two. I don’t expect a young player to come back in a trade.
  12. nate82
    Supposedly the White Sox are not interested in eating any of Robert’s salary and still want a good return for him. I don’t see how they are going to do this. Also I think Robert should be a DH going forward and not a full time OF.
  13. nate82
    To make things worse the Bucks only have Giannis for one more season after this season as Giannis can opt out of his contract in the summer of 2027 and pick the team he wants to go to. The Bucks would get nothing if this were to happen. I wouldn't be surprised if teams short the Bucks because of this and the return for Giannis as I have been saying will be smaller than what people are expecting.

    But to pick the one that sucked the least is just weird. Better OL play and better QB play would have made the WR’s look better. WR’s catch the ball they can’t catch the ball if the ball is not thrown to them. To question how the WR coach still has a job is just a weird statement to make. When the WR’s did get the ball they were rather good. Both Anthony and Mason had over 10 yards per reception granted they both only had 30 and 31 receptions. To question the WR coach is just laughable. You can’t question someone when there isn’t even enough information to make an informed decision on how well they performed. Take the last game of the season as an example the QB missed a wide open receiver at least three or four times. Not the QB throwing and missing the receiver but the QB not throwing the ball at all to wide open receivers. You can’t blame the WR coach for that.

    How is the WR coach at fault for this year? You do know the QB has to throw the ball right??? The WR’s were not a problem this year they have been open a lot and the QB just never got the ball to them. Is the WR coach supposed to be the QB coach also? Is the WR coach also the OL coach to you know block? It’s weird you are singling out the WR coach when that is probably the best of the group on offense. I can’t remember a game where the WR’s were the problem on offense. It was mostly the OL and QB that was the problem. Please explain why you think the WR coach was a problem.

    I think this is the logical reasoning here. Not much you can do as a coach when key players get injured and the players replacing them are not physically ready yet. Nearly all freshmen on the OL or DL are not ready to play in college. They are just not physically ready to compete at that level. It is not until their sophomore season or really their junior season that they are physically ready to play at the college level. Even Bostad would have had a hard time having any success with the group Blazek had this year. I wouldn’t be surprised if the 2026 OL looks a whole lot better and it won’t be because of the coaching well not 100%. Majority of it will be because of the players being physically better in year two or year three.

    I am still skeptical of his defense at 3B and still see him as a 2B.
  18. nate82
    Didn’t see this linked anywhere but it looks like there is more money available for teams to spend next year. I wonder if UW is splitting this evenly to all the sports and not just the normal 70+% to the football programs. This could be the reason why UW football is losing recruits on the football side but gaining on the basketball side. https://www.si.com/fannation/college/cfb-hq/nil/college-players-to-earn-more-revenue-dollars-in-new-ncaa-plan

    The Yankees. Spencer Jones doesn’t have all that much value and is a K machine. Schlitter would only be included by the Yankees if they had a guarantee that Peralta would accept a long term deal. Very close to Peralta’s value.

    But would there be enough playing time? The Brewers have been an organization for a while now that they will let players go if they can’t get them enough playing time.

    I think this was expected in the minor league portion of the rule 5 draft. There just wasn’t enough room to keep all of them.

    Twins get Susac in rule 5

    Apparently the rumor now is that the Knicks maybe out on the Giannis sweepstakes and the Lakers are now in. If a Giannis trade goes down people are going to be very disappointed on the return. The Bucks won't be getting back a young player. As I said previously it is going to be expiring contracts and picks. Nothing else will be coming back to the Bucks for Giannis.

    Can almost guarantee he goes to LSU or Miami. Both have the funds to pay Leavitt.

    I get stung by a scorpion every year I bring my artificial tree out. Also some how a scorpion got inside of an ornament and it is now permanently stuck in there.
