That was the last Mount Union Game I attended in person.
Well, at least you manned up and took responsibility.
If you search my past posts you'll see I've posted this before. I was also there, in person, for the ONU loss at home and the UMHB loss at home during the playoffs.

Quote from: WRMUalum13 on January 25, 2025, 06:25:39 PMIt only takes one guy with some spare change and a willingness to spend it. Does the name "McLane" ring a bell?Quote from: D3fanboy on January 23, 2025, 07:57:36 PMQuote from: Dr. Acula on January 23, 2025, 07:52:19 PMExactly. IMO the biggest remaining hurdle between the farce of the players getting paid for NIL only and being an employee on payroll is the universities/NCAA still laughably claiming the athletes are not employees just amateur athletes. Eventually I would think it ends in revenue sharing where the university sets aside a % of their athletics revenue for player payroll. NIL could still be paid in addition to that I'd imagine so the gap between the haves and have nots will remain, but it sets a floor for everyone.Quote from: D3fanboy on January 23, 2025, 05:06:37 PMHopefully UMHB gets out of D3 before that is approved. Handing out old Subarus in the shadows is one thing, I doubt anyone could keep up with the legal handouts down there.Quote from: WRMUalum13 on January 23, 2025, 03:52:02 PMQuote from: Dr. Acula on January 21, 2025, 09:10:22 AMIt'd definitely be interesting. I wonder if/when the athletes become employees of the schools it will be public as it is (or used to be at least) for all state employees? There used to be a database where you could look up state employees, teachers, etc. Basically anyone funded by tax dollars. I showed it to one of my buddies that worked at OSU and he texted me the next day telling me he spent his entire day at work looking up what other people at OSU made.
Keep in mind the schools are not actually paying these players. They are getting paid by outside organizations for the value of their "name image and likeness" for promotional purposes
for now. Revenue sharing is coming very, very soon
lets hope that the professionalism of the top level of college sports doesnt leak all the way down to D3. but I'm not hopeful
There's not enough money in D3 athletics for it to leak down this far! It's $25 to go to a championship game for pete's sake.
Sure, there are a few kids making a little off of true NIL deals, like on opendorse, but I'm not seeing 6 figure payrolls or anything in D3... ever.
I mean there aren't even very good NIL deals at the top levels of FCS as far as I can tell. There just isn't a big enough donor base. I doubt MAC football players are even getting very much NIL.
Many MAC schools don't even operate a profitable athletic department, so profit sharing wouldn't even work. Kent State for example lost over 1 million dollars on athletics last year.

Quote from: Pat Coleman on December 18, 2024, 10:02:05 PMWho in your mind was most directly involved? There was only one D3football.com staffer involved and that was me. Keith was not reporting the story and Frank Rossi is not a D3football.com staffer.
