I, also, have never seen it. I watched very little TV during the time period it was on and I don't particularly care for sit-coms. There are a lot of popular ones I have never seen.

There are a lot of popular sitcoms out there.
There are also several good sitcoms out there.
Popular doesn’t necessarily mean good, but Seinfeld certainly fits both criteria.

Neither have I.

I lived in NYC when the series first aired and had co-workers upon whom these characters could have been modeled. They were massively annoying in real life with a nearly nonexistent work ethic.

if you’ve never seen the show how did you know the characters could be based on your co-workers or that that their work ethic is non-existent? Something is missing alright.

We could use his athleticism and quickness in transition. Scottie Atkinson contributes that same way at Webster Groves, MO. That quickness in transition is something that we miss from the past few seasons.

Dybantsa to BYU wow.

I personally would not choose to go to a middling basketball school where I could easily get kicked off the team for getting on with my own girlfriend, but perhaps BYU has changed the rules for star athletes nowadays since they're giving them millions and need to see a good return on investment (funny how that works huh LOL)

$7 million. As a Bama fan who thought we had a shot at him, I find this number ridiculous. I hate the new NIL world where the schools with the richest donors snatch whoever they want.

Any truth to the rumors that all of his top 4 met the same number but it was his relationship with Young that actually made him choose? Or just BS from BYU?

Just BS from BYU - their number was highest.

Also there are clauses in his deal that could put him into the 7-8 range...it's insane.

How can there be clauses in an "NIL deal"? It specifically can't be tied to performance or be "pay-for-play." It's supposed to be for "name, image, and likeness." Unless the clause is something like, extra $$$ for a certain number of instagram followers, it doesn't seem like something like that would be permissible.
