OT: Utah NIL collective gifts all 85 scholarship players Dodge Ram 1500 trucks

Stuff like this is even worse than UConn's horrible play in driving me away from CFB.

I'm OK with players getting paid for their NIL- but where's the oversight? Where are the guardrails? Does any sane person think this is healthy?

Dude, what do you think was going to happen? Why should they be capped in pay? Why should there be guardrails? To what end? This was never healthy and this was never about ensuring that a guy has a suit to wear.

Dude my questions were largely rhetorical- I'm not THAT clueless. Just expressing my dismay at the direction that the most entertaining level of my favorite team sport is heading.

This also puts schools in a position to tortiously interfere with NIL deals. If anything this seems like the whole point.

No way is a Tacoma too big. My dad has one and it doesn’t fit much, but it’s just big enough most of the time. It’s a great truck. Regardless, a Tacoma is a far better use of funds than a Maverick etc. It’s a real truck, an off-road beast and it will last you 30 years if you want it to. It’s a smart buy financially because someone will always want it should you want to sell it.

I’ve had a Ram 3500 and an F-150. Both are great trucks, especially for real work (I’m in construction). However, the convenience of truck ownership pops up weekly at home too. Once you have one, it’s hard to go without it.

Gotta get the 6 foot bed. Awesome small truck!
