2025-26 Coaching Carousel

I could understand if Stanford opens up the checkbook and Mora leaves for there. I'd be shocked if Mora left UConn for Oregon State.

Oregon State would be just as big a rebuild, perhaps even bigger than UConn. They have the Pac-12 money, but are a very little brother to the Ducks within Oregon and don't have a winning program or national visible athletic endeavor except for the baseball team.

Yea… “Annual roster cash” - what are we doing?

Yea… “Annual roster 💰”!

"25 million+ in annual roster cash"

Does "roster cash" apply to assistants as well? Is LSU giving nothing to it's basketball team? Or am I just missing something here? Could've sworn there was that whole 20.5m rev share cap that was supposed to be in place going forward... But they will have 25m to spend each year on just football?

Oregon State is like rebuilding us all over again. Unless he really wants to go West doesn't make sense to me. Stanford on the other hand I could see meaning more to him. I agree with Moorhead being low on my list.

If Stanford makes a call there is no planet on which you do not take that call.

If Stanford is interested I wouldn't blame Mora one bit for his mutual interest.

Who knows, maybe Mora and AD David Benedict will be a package deal.

NIL is separate from revenue sharing.

Teams will still offer “NIL” and if the NCAA committee tries to argue it is not “real” NIL they will get sued by the state the team is located in. Until there is a player collective agreement in place nothing will change.

Stanford is an interesting school. Could easily fund football at a high level via the billionaire alumni. In the past Stanford did not seem keen to pursue high level football. Not sure anything has changed.

Worth a read:



-> GM Andrew Luck on the $50M donation earlier this fall from former Cardinal football student-athlete/longtime benefactor Bradford Freeman: “Brad’s gift is a vote of confidence in the program, and in me. It will allow us to invest in people, help us attract and retain players, and get the program into a virtuous cycle. We need to invest in people to regain our competitive edge. <-

NIL is separate from revenue sharing.

I thought the rev share model was supposed to replace the NIL model. Most pundits made it seem that way, which is why the whole "Big East will have an advantage over the P4 in basketball" narrative started. If NIL is still uncapped and is only restricted by "fair market value" that narrative doesn't hold any weight.
