Sour Grapes.  Tech is much better than you give credit 

Sour grapes? Bro, I’m the guy that was just arguing King is THE best QB in the ACC the other week.  You straight up manifesting something here lol.

I merely said they need King to stay on field and healthy….and that is something to question if you talking about a GT run.   Because he gets hurt.  A lot.  

I’ll take GT over any team in the ACC if King is ready to rock and roll.  He is the best player.

And, perhaps most importantly, UNC has agreed to seriously upgrade its NIL budget from $4 million to the maximum allowable under the new revenue sharing system coming, which will likely be around $20 million.

Allowable is the operative word here.  If you think Georgia, Penn State and similar programs are only spending $20M on players, Eric Dickerson's Trans Am would like a word with you.

Directly. You can indirectly help facilitate as many outside NIL deals as possible. The perks you're talking about are essentially what are now simply NIL deals not directly coming from the school and they're legal now.

These rain delays are getting old. They need to do a better job of watching the weather and flexing. 

 

Game starts at 745 and the thunder storms start at 8 in columbia today. Meanwhile you could move it to 330 and finish before they start. Makes going and sitting there awful before you even have to watch that excuse for an offensive line play. 

 

Edit: As I say that it looks like the weather has cleared up some..thank Allah for that. Point remains though /endrant

The logistics of that can't be simple. Putting on a high level D1 football game is a massive multifaceted operation. Pretty damn hard to just wake up in the morning and say "hey, let's bump this whole thing up a few hours".

Yeah, I think you should at least be able to flex pending it’s done 24 hours out to avoid the really big and obvious.

Probably not. But im not gonna give the billion dollar corporations the benefit of the doubt here. fug em. 

They should be able to watch the weather over the course of a week and make an educated decision. I have to do it in my line of work for logistics.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
