Dallas Cowboys legend Michael Irvin says he kept his first $1,000,000 paycheck on display in his bedroom for women to see
“I bought that house because it had the pool and everything, but it had an 8-foot gate”
“All I knew is I don't want anybody to see me in the pool and what I'm doing. That was the parameter that I needed to buy my first house”
“Let me tell you what I did with that first check. That million dollar check. I left that right there on the table, right in my room. So, as soon as they walked in, they said, ‘That's your check?’”
“I had my financial people calling me, ‘Man, send in that check, Michael. We're losing’”
“I said, ‘Shoot, I'm winning. What you talking about? I'm winning like a mfer’”
In the last 10 days, Mark Pope has:
* Closed on arguably the No. 1 player in the portal
* Closed a Top 2 portal class (per 247 Sports)
* Closed on five-star Ryan Hampton (2027)
Still has to win games in November, but he has silenced a LOT of critics in the last month
After taking a ton of (justified) criticism for his recruiting, Mark Pope has just had his biggest week ever as Kentucky’s coach. Lands the highest Ranked transfer and High School commit of his career within 5 days
That’s huge for Mark and a good sign going forward
Massive get for Mark Pope. He needed a win and he now has a player that can make his team be very competitive next season
Credit to him for closing and credit to JMI and the secondary parts of the operation for getting it done
Great night for UK Basketball

The Cowboys went 7-9-1 last year. Doesn't matter.
They're still the NFL's biggest brand ...
• They've opened the season at 1 p.m. ET just once over the last 25 years (2002-26).
• Over the last 17, they've opened on NBC—either in the Kickoff game or SNF opener—12 times.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones when asked about trading first-round picks with the Eagles: “If I eliminated (trading with) all the teams that I wanted to beat their ass, you wouldn’t have anybody left to trade with.”
