They can compete if they use NIL correctly. All the Big East schools have have donor’s that can do what Miami just did and what other Power school’s are doing, especially SEC Football. The power schools are not using the $42 million they get annually. They are using donor’s and corporations to make NIL payments to get players.
That’s cool. I mean that. In a big generality I think there are 2 types of people: those that live to work and those that work to live. I fall in the work to live category. I don’t hate my job, but if I didn’t monetarily need to work I would retire at noon today and never look back. I could happily fill out every second of every day without a job. I know people like you and I respect that we are all just wired differently.
This is the mentality I don't understand.
I do, and I do. But, I am thankful that I am able to satisfy those curiosities in the time available outside of my work. Thankfully, my work allows me the privilege of extreme personal satisfaction in a job "well done", and I enthusiastically accept the challenges put in front of me. IMO it seems to me that life would be empty without that. I am fortunate that what I do is really more like a hobby than work for which I am also well paid.
I assume what you really meant to tell him was, "Dude, take some mushrooms and open yourself up to the world and all its possibilities." But we can't promote drug use here.
Lucky. My sister has a rewarding job she mostly loves (except writing grants). Me, I ask “if nobody told me I had to do it or paid me to do it, would I do it?” And the answer for every type of work I’ve done is a resounding no. I would always prefer to do exactly what I want to do every day. Or at least to do things that benefit me or my family, like replanting a forsythia bush this morning.
Are you a gigolo for wealthy middle-aged women?
In my dreams I am!
Maybe even a wealthy young one?
Why not? We get bombarded by ads for everything under the sun here. Illicit or otherwise.
You say that like it's a bad thing. Don't knock it until you've tried it...LOL
Thanks for your great reply!
Good attitude.
Having a job you love the way that you love yours is out of the ordinary and very much a privilege.
Retired at 61 - loved my job but my Dad died at 62 and my husband at 58. I had too many things I wanted to do and realized we never know how long we've got. Never looked back.
On the surface, the Knicks would seem to be the biggest challenge with their long time culture of losing.
I think Jay likes coaching at the college level, but not prima donnas. I could see him doing a JC and taking a couple years off, then going to a D3 just for fun far more than I can see him going pro.
Reading those quotes from him makes me feel that he'll definitely be back coaching within the next few years.Retired Villanova men's basketball coach Jay Wright leaves door open for possible move to NBA
Jay Wright announced his retirement as Villanova head coach last week, but said Tuesday on ESPN's Keyshawn, JWill & Max that coaching in the NBA is "something I always thought about."www.espn.com
Maybe not this offseason but just a matter of time... feels kind of like a Billy Donovan redux
I considered including this clause nearly word-for-word on one of my posts to @Chief00 about Overtime Elite.
