G5 Playoff

....Documents specify, perhaps for the first time in writing, the total amount in back damages owed to athletes for the use of their name, image and likeness (NIL) before the NCAA lifted NIL prohibitions in 2021.

The amount is $2.776 billion.

The NCAA is responsible for paying the amount over a 10-year period, roughly $277 million annually. About 60% of that will come from a reduction in distribution to its schools. The NCAA is responsible for closing the 40% gap through other means, such as reserves, other net incomes and a significant reduction in operating expenses of as much as $18 million annually......

What are the odds….

Branding. That's one thing that annoys me. I've got some stuff with Middle Tennessee. Some with the pegasus MT. Those are the options on the BSN store where I got my vest.

But I also have a Nike hat with the block MT. I've got a shirt my wife got me that says MTSU.

We've talked till we are blue in the face but like said above, CDM appears to be trying to create a true brand, so here's hoping he does pull out some block MT stuff. At least he has the hashtags right now.

I don’t mind it either like some people do. However, we continue to miss the mark on the point you just made which is branding.

While I don’t mind the current logo per se, the block MT logo has a clean/classic look and is simply better. It’s the type of logo that can carry the brand (especially if our apparently permanent moronic admin would change the name) in a way that you know exactly who it is when you see it. The way the white Pegasus blends into the letters detracts from the clean, crisp look you would otherwise have.

But no one at the university has really ever understood the importance of brand identity.
