As a lawyer, what do you find objectionable in Paxton’s (loathsome as he is) reasoning?
“Paxton identifies several reasons that schools should not sign the document, including the requirement to waive legal action, the CSC’s over-extension of authority to penalize programs without a legitimate option for appeal and the concept of schools acquiescing to “unnamed policies
He does not know. He was asked the same question twice already. If you do know law go ahead tell us.
The entire argument is “but nobody else has objected.” That’s it. End of analysis.
Yup, that is how dictatorships work. Impose your will on everyone.
Except again.
It ain’t a dictatorship.
It’s a consensus.
Anyway, I don’t trust anything Paxton says. His saying that there is this and that issue in no way establishes that there is a real issue or that any of his gripes are valid.
His concerns are of little concern to me, given that seemingly all but two P2 schools don’t seem to share them.
But it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that Tech and Baylor alone aren’t enough to beat this. I don’t want UH to be standing on their side when they lose this fight, and have to face negative consequences when they do.
Question for @BYUcougarfan and @RezClone .
Any beef from BYU, Iowa State, or Utah (if known) over this?
I was at a cougar club luncheon with the AD for BYU. He talked about this somewhat extensively. Donors will help BYU get to the 20 million and BYU plans to abide to the T.
I’m also confident NIL will be alive and well at BYU. You’ll see more ads like this from BYU players. (Shaq and AJ with Nutricost)
Again you can’t answer the simplest question. We asked the same question three times now and what do you do?
You insult the Texas A.G.
Of course I do and he deserves it.
My answer is simple: this AG saying there are issues doesn’t mean that there are.
Remember, he was also one of these big election fraud morons, and was under felony indictment for securities fraud. Truly an embarrassment to his office.
As for AU’s lame post about punishment from X, that’s stupid.
Any organization can kick out a member that won’t comply with its requirements.
I don’t want UH to be there when Tech and Baylor get kicked out and blackballed for not complying.
You and coogman91 shouldn’t be insisting that UH be there just to help out Tech. That’s dumb.
Don’t get us kicked out just to support Tech and Baylor’s stupid protest.
God willing, Renu’s legal team will have enough sense to ignore Paxton on this.
I’m pretty sure that aTm and UT will.
If we want to stay in the power conference game, we’d be wise to do the same, and STUPID to do otherwise.
You are not answering the question law.
One more time.
How do this agreement differ from the previous ones or even prior to NIL?
Paxton is not part of the question law. Stop prancing around it.
Does it matter how it may or may not differ?
If the NCAA says to do it, as long as compliance isn’t either illegal or unethical, you DO IT.
Tech and Baylor can refuse to sign and get kicked out if they want.
DON’T insist that we do the same. That’s dumb.
You are ignoring the question again.
I asked you what was different from the previous ones.
You can’t answer.
Typical on how you respond to simple facts.
Lulz…Nobody’s getting kicked out. Stop pretending not to know that
I don’t not know that.
It’s a risk you take when you go rogue.
Don’t drag us down with you.
The blue bloods will have their advantages and be fine either way, so I think that I actually side with Tech on this one, because it not only affects them but all other non blue blood programs.
You may side with Tech, but Renu would be a fool to.
Let Tech get blacklisted.
Let us NOT go down with them.
I hope you’re a better lawyer in real life than you are on Coogfans, sir –
Wake me up when aTm sides with Tech on this and then come back and see me.
Until then, I won’t advocate that we go rogue with Tech and risk getting blackballed for it.
I’d be a bad lawyer if I advocated anything else.
If tech wants to die on this vine, fine.
But they can die alone.
Your question is IRRELVANT to the question as to whether UH should join Tech in its futile fight, but if must have an answer to it, then fine.
Click here.
There.
Irrelevant question answered.
Simple request: ask RELEVANT questions.
@AU1906 , to answer your questions about my objections to Paxton’s position on this, it’s simple.
Because a) following his advice could get a school kicked out of the P4 or NCAA, AND b) given his history as both an indicted felon and filer of legally BASELESS election lawsuits, he’s the last lawyer I’d listen to.
@BellaireAg , if you differ on this, then feel free to explain why.
But before you do, ask yourself why your alma mater hasn’t joined Tech in going rogue, and why UH should do any anything different from aTm in this regard.
