@dabateman0679@CatieHarper You’re right - just took a look and base + incentives rise to $1m. Interestingly, Chesney’s base was $550k/year. Looks like the incentives were structured a bit differently for Napier too. It’s still a bit less than I would have expected JMU to have to shell out which is nice.
@PenguinOfTroy Im hoping this situation threads the needle where he can have enough quick success to get poached by a better program ASAP while losing to USC each year. Truly not ideal 😂
@PenguinOfTroy The only thing I can think of is that it’s live for the defense to recover but if the offense recovers it’s dead? Though I don’t think that’s the rule but that’s the only interpretation that makes sense there
@joereecedrums I also feel like Ordaz has a real Harrison Reed quality about him (despite playing a bit more forward). It feels like he’s just constantly ratting around and sticking his nose in things
@jimmynelson2013@JMUGameday I don’t disagree about P5 being a little outdated. I guess what it comes down to is do people want access for the sake of access, or to definitely find “the best” team? 12 is great for access and 8 is great for figuring out who’s actually the best team.
@steel_city_crtv@DukeOfBotetourt@JMUGameday That’s how the process officially goes, at least how it used though I bet it’s the same now. You “apply” but you aren’t allowed to apply unless you’ve been asked to apply. Then once approved, you’re extended an official invite.
@steel_city_crtv@DukeOfBotetourt@JMUGameday And honestly it isn’t even about Liberty. If they met all the qualifications then there should be a waiver in place for that. Just like how JMU has met all the qualifications, and the waiver process should have allowed JMU to play for a conference title this year.
