You want to talk about a model? Look at our trophy case and then look at yorus. We just won the Big Ten West and went to a major bowl by using the portal strategically to fill. Your "Lakers way" sounds like an excuse for NOT adapting. College football changed, and clinging to some outdated purity test just means you're getting left behind. We built an identity around toughness and physicality, and guess what. Those "mercenaries" you mock are guys who chose to fight for the Block I. If your culture was so strong, you wouldn't be watching us in January. Sustainable football is about winning, and we're doing it better right now. Your development model is great for consistency, but we're building something special here by blending the best of both worlds. Maybe you should worry less about how we do it and more about trying to stop us on the field.
