So a college sports scholarship/ revenue sharing question:
With the new scholarship limits, can revenue sharing only go to scholarship players?
Would paying a non-scholarship player essentially be supplementing their tuition/room/board?

If Bill Clinton was a member of Jeffrey Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring, he should rot in prison forever.
If Donald Trump was a member of Jeffrey Epstein’s child sex trafficking ring, he should rot in prison forever.
That wasn’t so difficult, was it?

With natural disasters on the rise due to climate change and uncertainty in funding for our federal weather systems, I’m thankful Minnesota has taken extra steps to prepare for whatever comes our way.

After deadly Texas floods, Minnesota officials say they are ‘attuned to how bad things can get’
Emergency managers may consider using sirens to warn of flash floods in the future.

Liberals have been implementing Trans Sharia Law long before Mamdani was elected. Don't believe me? Check your car manual. It will point out the Trans Mission. Real patriots should immediately drain the Trans Mission Fluid from their vehicles to stop radical liberals from transing their cars!!

Not feeding into the Bluesky debate but I would love to see more academics sharing papers on here. Revive the ‘ol “here’s a thread about this paper” thing. I think it’s good for the information ecosystem.
