As we all are aware, the Revenue Sharing Model will begin to be implemented in January. To be clear, as far as I know, payments cannot actually be made until July 1. So, what will this look like for Clemson?

Here’s my best guess (none of this is really breaking news, I’m just piecing a bunch of things together):

1) Clemson will place a high amount of the allotment towards Football. Let’s just say, hypothetically, it’s 17.5 million $/year.

2) Clemson will still utilize NIL for Football and that structure will be VERY SIMILAR to what it currently looks like. What does that mean? It means that some of the “superstar” level talent will get paid more. Cade, Peter Woods and on down the line.

3) The remaining money will largely be divided up among the team. There will likely be tiers for those considered starters and those that are not considered starters. If you divide 17.5 million into 105 you get 167K per player (this is a just for reference).

3b) Let’s say you have 35 starting caliber players (as determined by the coaching staff). Then let’s say we have another 35 that are in the backup tier and the remaining 35 are reserves. Approximately 2/3 of the 17.5mill (11.5mill) will go to the first 35 @ 330K per player. This is WAAAAAAY above the current numbers.

3c) Next, your backup tier could be around another 5.95mill which puts their payments @ 141K.

3d) And, finally, the reserve tier make around 29K.

Remember, in this specific model, your elite/high level players get NIL deals that drive their numbers way up.

This can definitely work for Clemson. I know people have strongly considered the issues associated with larger programs just having more overall money to contribute…and that’s true. However, one thing I haven’t seen mentioned is that there are going to be TONS of D1 programs that absolutely cannot contribute the full revenue share either to football or to anything. This likely brings a lot more players to the table. Thoughts?

Bryce Underwood flips to U-M

The last week's QB recruiting carousel had me thinking. FSU loses a 4* QB and immediately flips one from OU. USC loses Juju Lewis and immediately flips TAMU's QB. Bryce Underwood flipped to Michigan (for $12m). Meanwhile, Hebert decommitted over a month ago but there's not been a peep of news on our QB recruiting front despite all the activity elsewhere. Are we even planning on taking a QB still or are we going to go 2 straight cycles without one?

Here is my order of priority:
Offensive line
Defensive line
Safety
Linebacker
Corner
Tight End
Wide Receiver
Quarterback
Snapper
Kicker
Running Back

My list is based on an increase to the current scholarship allocation Dabo uses. In my thinking, the difficulty in teaching / developing a position is the highest priority. Keeping players on the roster is the second biggest consideration. You can platoon with some positions, distribute playing time, and keep players engaged - otherwise they are going to leave. Special teams need the linebacker, tight end, and safety bodies.

It's been known since day one that he was illegitimately appointed.

Before my time but saw this today. Pretty cool to have the Birdman of Alcatraz repping the paw.

Just finished watching the second half, OT and PKs of Clemson's non-loss to Wake Forest. How we didn't win that is baffling.
Wake is a good team, no doubt. But, man, I thought we were better and had the better opportunities. My concerns with Paddy D in goal are near zero at this point as well.
Oh well. On to the NCAAs.

2024 NCAA DI men's soccer tournament schedule​

• Selection show: 1 p.m. ET Monday, Nov. 18 on NCAA.com
• First round: Thursday, Nov. 21
• Second round: Sunday, Nov. 24
• Third round: Saturday, Nov. 30 or Sunday, Dec 1
• Quarterfinals: Friday, Dec. 6 or Saturday, Dec. 7
• Men's College Cup:
  • Semifinals: Friday, Dec. 13 | 5 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPNU
  • National championship: Monday, Dec. 16 | 7 p.m. ET on ESPNU

Our current RPI is 12th. I'm expecting us to get a top 8 seed, which means two home games in the tournament, as well as a bye in the first round. We've won our last two national titles as the 8th and 9th seed. In 2022, we were the sixth seed.
There are 48 teams that make the tournament with the top 16 seeds getting byes. The other 32 teams play first round games against each other with the winner traveling to one of the top 16 seeds.

Huntington (W.Va.) junior tight end Tayveon Wilson has committed to Clemson.

As is customary, we will not be releasing a forecast this coming weekend. We do not issue forecasts for FCS opponents.

Your score predictions please. Thank you!

Do you really believe nato is looking to invade Russia. If your next door neighbor is Russia with the actions it has taken would you not be concerned about sovereign border territories being seized with no restraint in bombing civilians in all locations with thermal weapons that emit an initial burst of material that then ignites a 2nd explosion creating a vacuum that sucks the guts out of everyone within a large range or the confines of a building? How can any pro life advocate not care about the atrocities by Russia with no concern for any civilian life?

In WW II Europe stayed in denial until Germany pushed things to the tipping point of no return. Why would Nato go down that road again?

Just curious to hear why anyone believes otherwise

Hard also to understand restricting use of US weapons across Russia border other than fear of opening door to Russia taking actions to further arm Cuba and any foothold in South America and other BRIC allies? Some reports that Russia is increasing nuclear delivery capability for N Korea in return for the troops and weapon supplies N Korea is providing Russia invading a sovereign European country?

Glad there are indications restrictions are finally being lifted. Seems like a window is open until Trump is sworn in just like Russian expanding push at high cost to establish favorable conditions for negotiations giving it all seized territory and have the Kurst region in Russia handed back

These are questions I keep pondering. Maybe many just don't care.

The US responsibility was largely set by Bretton Woods that established the US dollar as the reserve currency for global trade. This gave the US a huge economic advantage. Not sure whether in writing, but this also put an increased responsibility that is also in the the best interest of US which dwarfs other nations in Naval capability to protect the shipping lanes of earth which is predominantly covered by water.

After Nixon (was elected by the largest margin in history I believe) took away the last ties to gold and threw all doors open for money mischief by all foxes in the hen house. Add to that weaponizing the USD as leverage against any enemies or perceived foreign threat. Not criticizing the action, just how we got there.

Granted, many allies grew overly dependent on the US and let their defense contributions diminish and are now acting to correct this with the threats posed.

There are 2 sides to this coin and one seems to be overlooked or just taken as something we feel to simply be entitled to.

Looking for 3, possibly 4, tickets for the Clemson Kentucky Bball game on Dec 3rd. Please send me a DM if you have tickets you're looking to sell. Thank you!

Howdy fellas!

If so, what did you post?

Personally, I’ve never been banned. May give it a go soon.

Players we have on scholarship?

It has now come out that the FBI had multiple operatives embedded in the organized groups for months and did nothing. Wow!!

The Vast Majority of Newborns DO NOT Need to get the Hepatitis B Vaccine, which has Formaldehyde and Aluminum in it…

• Hepatitis B is spread by two routes
— sexually transmitted
— intravenous needles

• If you push your doctors about Hepatitis B and why your child should get it, they say… Americans are too stupid to get it later, and the child at daycare could trip over a needle at daycare that has hepatitis B on it..
—— “Has there ever been in history a human case where that happens?” NO

• The Hepatitis B vaccine is formaldehyde and aluminum in it, which is a neuro-toxin…
—— when a baby is getting several shots at once, their bodies are overloaded with toxic inputs.

• Once you follow the money, it paints a pretty sinister picture..
—— the American Academy of Pediatrics main funders are Meade Johnson that makes formula, the company that makes influenza vaccines
—— Abbot Nutrition which makes formula
—— Cadbury Chocolate, which pays millions of dollars to the American Diabetes Association

“These people are funding the organizations that cherry picks the research to make our pediatric guidelines…”
