Welp, I'm happy with this. TN plays alabama, florida, Kentucky fulfilling my criteria for a schedule. We even play Vandy so the blue hairs can be happy and Georgia so idiots who think they're a blueblood can be happy too!

Edit: although now that I'm looking at it, it's just this year's schedule with flipped home games...

All financial commitments for UNLV QB Matthew Sluka were completely met.

But after wins against KU and Houston, Sluka’s family hired an agent and they collectively feel that his market value has increased, per source.

Per source, UNLV QB Matt Sluka has been approached with more money to transfer.

https://x.com/ESPNRittenberg/status/1838948515113767100

Bob Sluka, father of UNLV QB Matthew Sluka, told ESPN that his son's agents agreed to an NIL deal with the school back in February, never received payments despite requests and never asked for any adjustments to the original deal.

"We have no idea what the hell happened."

1:03pm EST update from ESPN: https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/41438172/matthew-sluka-nil-dispute-unlv-hinges-verbal-offer

Sluka's agent, Marcus Cromartie, told ESPN that UNLV didn't come through on a verbal offer of $100,000 from an assistant coach. The quarterback's father, Bob Sluka, told ESPN that head coach Barry Odom later said in a phone conversation that the offer wasn't valid because it didn't come from him, but rather from offensive coordinator Brennan Marion, who declined comment to ESPN.

UNLV and Shannon Cottrell, the director of athlete engagements for the Friends of UNLV collective, also did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

It's finally happened. I have no idea WTF is happening with realignment. The players in the drama are constantly shifting, the motivations are murky, the money is not immediately obvious. I am very confused.
