This, the B10 out maneuvered the SEC. Signing deals with CBS, NBC, and FOX gets them more nationally televised games each week. A lot more money in those broadcast networks than cable.
Seems like the kind of kid you want to see succeed. I can't imagine what it was like for him growing up in DC. I hope he makes the most of the opportunity he's been given.

The schedules for 2024 are a real mess. Maybe a 9 game conference schedule would help...I don't know.
For example, TN, TX, and LSU don't play each other next season. Theoretically all 3 teams could finish 12-0, what then?
Top 4 conference champions are guaranteed a bye, no matter their ranking. The automatic qualifiers are just an awful idea and it opens the door for a 2 or 3 loss team to get a bye.
You can try to regulate collectives but that won't solve anything. Rich boosters will still be able to pay players outside of their collective and there's no way to prevent that.
The portal is the real problem and that should be easy to fix.
It would be awesome to get that win in Norman next season. I like our chances mainly because of their OL issues. Glad we get them early but CJH has to figure out how to win these types of road games.
