    He told Matt Rhule that Todd Monken and Gregg Williams had to be his coordinators, so Rhule turned down the Jets and then Gase was hired.

    Turns out both of them stink.

    They just don’t want to potentially lose out on millions of dollars by playing in a game that’s not a national championship or playoff. It’s a simple business decision and isn’t because they’re entitled or they don’t love football. They are doing for the chance to play MORE football and actually get rightfully paid for it. It’s propaganda to not have at least somewhere there provide the obvious counterpoint especially when ESPN has such an obvious financial interest in having players not opt-out.

    we could all go on and on about this clip tbh, and I’m actually shocked Herbstreet said players these days don’t love football as much as they did lmao

    rambling post no one should read tbh:

    And Desmond… idk man, sorry that kids aren’t motivated to play for a box of Cheeze-Itz or whatever the fuck some of the “swag” from bowl games is. Additionally, I’m more than certain schools aren’t paying for the families to attend the bowl games, so if you’re a kid from a low income family or even what is called middle class, that’s a lot of money parents will to some extent feel obligated to shell out to see their kid play a bowl game, so if players aren’t feeling it, even more reason not to play beyond the obvious avoiding injury.

    also, apparently these people think priorities and interest never change through generations lmao. As a weird example because it just popped in my head - go back and watch early seasons of The Challenge on MTV, they fucking give out boom boxes and CD players and shit for winning things. Of course that would interest no one in 2021/2022 but the NCAA never changes incentives.

    lastly, the risk assessment now vs the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s is drastically different. Salaries in the NFL in those decades were nothing compared to what people get paid now even with a rookie max cap. Yeah, injury by itself would suck and could still hurt draft status if injured in a bowl game but the money is so different now.

    I saw this in the replies. I knew there were so many more games now, but hadn’t seen it quantified.
     
  17. I’m sure they saw the Georgia tech sticker on my car and lol’d.

    I was going down 316 towards Atlanta. I’m certain none of them actually saw me lol.

    I mean I saw a below .500 Rutgers playing in a bowl game. What is the point and what are rewarding? Nothing.
