And if I read it right, because of injuries and surgeries he didn’t play until his senior year. He missed another year later due to injury and has played 2 seasons and half another season. Having said that the eligibility rules need an overhaul. Maybe just make an age restriction, I don’t...

I admit that the portal has made me more interested in the offseason. I enjoy seeing how it plays out the following fall and I like the parity that has come with it so far. I don’t respect players that are getting good money at one school and then change schools for a higher NIL deal. I am...

I agree with you about Mensah and think Duke will lose this case but if they should win, it may send a strong message to others. Apparently Miami wants him.

Not every team can have a Heisman QB. It helps to have receivers that don’t drop the ball and they made some great catches. Also as has been mentioned, a senior laden team. Yes, Cignetti is a very good coach but let’s see how it goes next year.

I knew Miami was tough in the trenches but I was surprised how well their offensive line dominated. Or maybe it was how weak OL Miss defensive tackling was. They couldn’t stop Miami’s running game. When it appeared a Miami running back would be stopped, they would break tackle or churn forward...

Blue font All players should go juco for 2 years, then red shirt a year or 2, then play at university level for 4 years (switching schools each year). And by then they should have enough NIL saved up to retire. They’ll be to old to play in the NFL.

Illinois State entered playoffs unranked and defeat #1 ranked team by 1 and almost defeated # 2 (lost by 1 in OT). Great game. And probably very little (if any) NIL or portal players.

I would prefer 8 but I know money wins out and will go to 16. I definitely believe the Championship game should be around Jan 1st like in the past instead of mid January. This will help with declaring for the portal. Makes it easier for kids to transfer before the new semester starts and give...

In 1975 there were 11 bowl games and most fans could name the schools and attendance was pretty good for all of the games. Many fans would watch all the games. In 2025 there are over 40 bowl games and attendance is down for them except for the playoff games. Very few fans care about most of...

Saw this tucked in article on ESPN web site. Thought you might be interested. "Whatever remaining power the NCAA still has to enforce whatever rules are remaining might be in serious trouble after a ruling last week in an Alabama state court. Doesn't apply to just Pruit but maybe all coaches...

Players will want to renegotiate their NIL deals.

The only ”deserving teams” IMO are ranked in the top five or six. Yes there are a bunch of better teams than JMU that were left out. But you will always get the argument of this team should be in or this team should be out. I would be happy with a 8 team playoff without some teams getting an...

Different sport, basketball, but reminds me of Michigan in 1989 when Frieder was their head coach but took another job about a week before the NCAA tourney. After the 1988–89 season, Frieder accepted the head coach's job at Arizona State but wanted to remain at Michigan for the NCAA tournament...

Which begs the question, which is making more money (profit), LV basketball or baseball? I think Kim is only making about $250,000.

The coaching staff that was working with Aguilar decided to get Nico. That should say a lot but we can hope he turns it around.
