Quarterbacks?

I have watched almost every bowl game this season. I have one question! Why in the hell does every team except the Golden Eagles have a QB. Sitting here watching ECU and the second coming on Jared Lerenzen (RIP) running all over CCU. Don’t give me the crap about athletic ability. Just find someone to run a creative offense. CWH I hope you are watching creative play calling.

USM Hoops Pod

Hi everyone! My name is Jake Griffith, I’m a freelance broadcaster covering Virginia, Illinois, WKU & Marshall (unusual coverage map, I know). I also run my own multimedia production company & recently launched a podcast focused on SBC men’s & women’s hoops! It’s called ‘Under the Sun’ & the first episode launched early this AM. Basically, I’ll be talking to coaches/players around the SBC & college basketball experts. Coach Jay Ladner was among my first guests, which I figured would be of interest to all of you!

^ That’s the free listen link. It’s also available on Apple & Spotify. I’ve never podcasted before so if the format is a little rough, I apologize but it’ll only get better from here!

I know the boards are a popular place so I figured sharing it with all of you was a good way to spread the word! I hope to have an episode featuring USM women’s hoops soon! Thanks for giving it a listen! If you’d like, you can follow me on Twitter @jakegriffithpxp where I’ll give updates about each episode. SMTTT!

NIL $

I researched the question about where NIL valuation $ estimates come from. If is my understanding that it is based on the number of followers has on Tiqtoc, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, etc. For instance Arch Manning has an NIL valuation at over $1M. Apparently the highest NIL valuation so far is LSU Gymnast Livvy Dunne who has a value of $1.5M. She is supposedly a “generational talent” in gymnastics plus she is very easy on the eyes. Question is do any of our athletes have a social media site they are being paid to post. They estimate Arch Manning gets $31k for each post he makes on YouTube tiqtoc or instagram.

South Alabama Facilities

Great win by USM last night. Proud of our team. I couldn't help but be impressed by USA's facilities. The stadium has well thought out layout, reasonable number of seats, and video screen that's sharper than my oled at home. Their covered practice structure also impressive. They have put more $$$ in construction in 10 years than we've put in for 50 yrs. Our fans ask how our program has regressed and programs that didn't exist until 13 ago have pulled even or passed us? Pretty easy to see after last night. Money always the answer and something USM has never had much of.

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!!

I would like to say "Thank You" to all of you for another fun year of Southern Miss Athletics. We have seen a baseball team who hosted a Super Regional, a football team who went bowling and won to finish 7-6, and MBB is 11-2 headed into conference play. WBB is playing better, soccer is rebuilding, softball made changes that were needed, and I expect WBB to do very well in the SBC. Not to mention T&F is outstanding as always.

On a more personal note, I hope and pray everyone has a wonderful holiday season filled with happiness, food, friends, and family. God bless all of you!!!!!
