Welp. This was bound to happen but the Dept of Education

Has weighed in on revenue sharing/NIL.

Per the article: The plans that many major college athletic departments are making for how they will distribute new direct payments to their athletes would violate Title IX law, according to a memo published by the U.S. Department of Education on Thursday.

In some cases, athletic directors have publicly shared that they intend to provide upward of 75% of that money to their football players.

However, the Office for Civil Rights -- the division of the Department of Education that enforces Title IX law -- said in its memo Thursday that those future payments should be considered "athletic financial assistance" and therefore must be shared proportionally between men and women athletes.

"When a school provides athletic financial assistance in forms other than scholarships or grants, including compensation for the use of a student-athlete's NIL, such assistance also must be made proportionately available to male and female athletes," the memo said.

Georgia's 2025 class by the final numbers..

Now that the final rankings have been released, let's see how the Dawgs finished up..

- #2 overall class behind Texas but only 12 points behind them (3024 to 3036)
- Tied with Ohio State for the most overall 4 and 5* signees (21 total)
- 2 players in the top 10 and 6 in the top 50
- 16 players in the top 250
- 3 offensive pass catchers in the top 50 :eek:
- 2 OL in the top 100 :eek::eek:
- QB signee ranked #70 overall

I guess that isn't too bad for a team with no NIL money, an offensive system that nobody wants to play in and a stubborn HC who needs to change his recruiting philosophy... ;)

Opinion Gotta do the basic things

When I played basketball I was told there’s 3 basic things you can’t do.
1. Don’t make your free throws
2. Turn the ball over
3. Give up offensive rebounds

UGA is terrible at all 3 of those. The offensive coaching and 3 point shooting just isn’t good. When it comes to 3 point shooting Leffew and Montgomery don’t have confidence in their shot. Somto has zero offensive game. The offense doesn’t have good ball movement or enough spacing.

Is a lot of this fixable? Yes but if it doesn’t get fixed soon a lot of changes will occur.
