That's wild if true.

Hard to criticize with them still having a chance to win conference.
I’m sure you can find it on a pod somewhere. It was Gottlieb’s radio show today, he interviewed Gundy. Douche Gottlieb even took some shots at ISU in the process, talking about how awful the season started by losing to South Alabama and ISU.

Gundy actuallly just told Gottlieb today in an interview that he did just that, promise playing time, and that’s why they sucked at the start of the year because he was fulfilling promises of playing time

I think Gundy is a complete bullshitter, so I don't know that I totally believe this.

But there were those rumors prior to our game that a bunch of players were going to quit, so I bet there was something sort of like that going on.

Guy on the team is a great culture fit. Huge locker room leader and has the trust of his team. 5 star guy comes in demanding 25 carries per game but is a detriment to the locker room. Who are you playing?
Or let's say the NIL guy doesn't pan out and he's hurting your chances but you agreed to 25 carries per game? Do the boosters get their money back? Are they pressuring the coach to play this guy? What about if you're down by 14 points in the 4th quarter. You're going to run the ball because some some player has a garuntee? I don't think most of these would happen, but with the way players are acting lately, I wouldn't be surprised if it eventually comes up.

The natural consequences of a demand of that type that goes with money of that type would be the school having demands of their own (maintain x yards per carry, or play in y number of games) and the funding is held back in part to make sure their demands are met.

This is the point where a collective bargain agreement between all parties begins to become practical.

He also let Chuba Hubbard tell him what shirt to wear and they sucked all year.
