New Nike Uniforms Revealed Tomorrow

The schools are literally "backed into a corner". They will gladly play when and where these sponsors with the lucrative deals TELL them. With what's going on and what might be coming, they basically have no choice but to take the money........and if I was the president of a school that has access to very good financial advisors in the industry, I would take the money right NOW because there might not be as much offered later......God forbid.


(not trying to be a global economic pessimist but am a realist.....the world economies are very shaky at best)

My daughter teaches the fourth grade in Broward County, understand full well what is happening with the entire school system, colleges are not the only ones suffering by a long shot.

Don't get me wrong fellows, maybe I have not stated my case clearly. My main problem is not the schools getting the money, it is that plastic pair of handcuffs that are being applied.

I contribute to my daughter's room and school. Little things like paper and who knows what. I care about the young folks, and when I see some of the attitudes that surround us as wlayton suggests, it really makes me wonder about the future of our nation. Not trying to be dramatic, but it is as the keeper of the vault on this board says, watch out this is not good.

Have witnessed more than one change of uniform since the 50's with UGA. This one will not bring me to my knees . . . . if they win, wear them every game if it means a victory.

AllDawgs5, my single biggest gripe with Richt is and was this. When the wheels are coming off and everyone can see and feel it, ask for help. The same Book that he puts out for all to see tells him that. Maybe he has not read that part yet. Maybe McGarity read it to him. Know this, and have said it before, time waits for no one.

Have to say this . . . . feel that there is still one part of the puzzle that is missing. You know what part of the ball that young man coaches.

When the coach for Boise State is referred to it goes something like this. He takes the talent he has and makes it work. Whether that be a running team or a passing team.

We seem to do the same damn things year after year, and that does not require a lot of scouting by the opposition. Anyone know what play will be called with UGA in a third and 6? When Richt was at FSU, never knew what play would be called in that situation. Bobby Bowden made a huge mistake in his coaching career, he let Richt get away. Richt has made a huge mistake with his offensive coordinator, he kept him. Sorry, that is how I feel. Just know what I see. Eyes still good on this old fart.

With the knowledge thats on this board do you guys think my college would just give me my degree? I mean really I could read majority of the posts just on this forum and come out smarter then reading books written by professors. Best part yet is uga football is included, something I actually WANT to read about. Wasn't pointing you out Buc, just saying you guys give me very good information to read.

I understand the money thing.
With the money has come, in my humble opinion, an adulteration of the game.
I still love college football but as great as the athletes have become.....the game is not as pure as it once was.

That is the bad part... sponsors have more and more say every year. But like the saying goes there's no such thing as a free lunch. Historic stadiums are torn down (Mile High, The Vet) and replaced (Invesco Field, Lincoln etc). I'm a huge football junkie I love college and pro football. When I'm jonesing in the off season, I even watch Canadian football. The CFL has logos and brands ON the uniforms. How far away are we from that?

So right....so sad.
