Would NIL money be better spent on 4 Stars

I saw a graph floating around on social media this week that listed a 10 year history of the number of 4 and 5 stars signed by each SEC schools and their SEC win/loss record over the same period.

We were like 7th or 8th in recruiting ranking and about the same with 4 or 5 winning SEC records over the same period.

What jumped out to me is that we had 9 five stars that bumped us up on the recruiting side, but we were much lower than several below us on the 4 stars. Those teams had the same success rate, but loaded up on 4 stars instead of 5 stars. Granted ours is also skewed by the 14 and 15 seasons.

So my question: Which has the most bang for the buck? 4 stars or 5 stars. Would we be much better off funneling NIL money to dramatically increase the number of 4 Stars spread around on all positions with our NIL money or spending it on a few 5 stars at key positions. I would think we have a higher chance of convincing 4 stars to come than 5 stars that are going to go to Bama and GA. My thought is chase the 4 stars by over bidding on them and leave the 5 stars and their high cost alone.

Do schools get to pick their one ESPN+ game a year?

Bc if so I can’t fathom why state would choose southern Miss to be their one game over western Michigan and southeast Lousiana considering how much pride they take in “state championships” and willingness to play them.


It’s almost like they knew this scenario would be a possibility and didn’t want it on a more accessible channel despite their confidence all off-season.

Well shit. Looks like more people from Seattle are moving here

Green hair, pierced noses, etc. and these are the smart ones

Time to move your business from BOA

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) has subpoenaed Bank of America (BoA) for information over the company's alleged sharing with the FBI of private customer data from around the time of the Jan. 6, 2021, events in Washington.
The subpoena is part of the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government's probe "into major banks sharing Americans' private financial data with the [FBI] without legal process for transactions made in the Washington, DC, area around Jan. 6, 2021"—the day that supporters of President Donald Trump breached the U.S. Capitol as Congress was certifying the 2020 election, which the former president has called rigged and stolen. Politico first reported the Nov. 16 development.
The committee subpoenaed relevant documents from the bank, including internal communications about the decision to transfer the information to the FBI, any communications that the bank had with the agency, and any other information. The lawmakers gave Bank of America a June 8 deadline to comply.

In a 78-page whistleblower report released by the House Judiciary Committee on May 19, whistleblowers allege that in the aftermath of the riot, Bank of America gave the FBI information about customers who made transactions in the Washington area on or near Jan. 6, 2021.
Those who had used Bank of America accounts to purchase a firearm, regardless of when or where the transaction took place, were bumped to the top of that list.
George Hill, a retired FBI supervisory intelligence analyst, told the panel: "The Bank of America, with no directive from the FBI, data-mined its customer base. And they data-mined a date range of [Jan. 5, 2021, to Jan. 7, 2021] any BoA customer who used a BoA product [meaning a Bank of America credit or debit card].
