On other message boards they've mentioned that it's an underage DUI, meaning he (probably) wasn't over the 0.08% BAC but because he's not 21, in Alabama any amount of alcohol is considered a DUI. Probably will have to take an online class about alcohol abuse and if he doesn't get in trouble again after a couple of years, be able to have it expunged. This assumes it's a first time offense.
It's crazy that so many athletes get DUI charges when they have the money for Uber and in many cases, a number they can call to have someone from the athletic department come pick them up and drive them home. Pearl will make Pettiford pray at the replica of the Wailing Wall in Bruce's backyard and maybe sacrifice a chicken.

The first game my dad took me to was Florida's season opener against Central Michigan. I wish I had known at the time that more than 10 touchdowns in 1 game is not normal and I was witnessing an absolute spectacle. Steve Spurrier pulled starters at halftime and went through our entire roster trying to find players that weren't embarrassingly better than them.

New Orleans was, at one point, the center of trade for the US and this includes the slave trade. Jews owned pretty much the entire US shipping industry, also including the slave trade. Those families stuck around New Orleans after the civil war.

I’m saying jewish slavery domination is a white supremacist fabrication.

>>149764817
It just so happens that slave auctions weren't held on jewish holidays. Nothing weird about that at all, right? How much do you JIDF retards get paid to defend your genocidal country on the internet?

I had to listen to my A&M Wife, UT brother, Arkansas sister and Auburn Brother in law argue nonstop about who was going to do best in the SEC yesterday at a family lunch.

I don't know man. Kind of sounds like you're a try hard faggot.

>>149768399

>>149768404
I know that evidence for Jews having a disproportionate role in the slave trade rarely goes beyond “come on bro they wuz slavers n sheit.”

>>149768590
I’ll deny it if it makes you feel better.
>>149768800
Those buttons don’t even contradict each other. Jewish slave traders existing doesn’t mean they were the majority. If that’s even a real article (usually they’re fake on this topic).

>>149769159

Now you get filtered. Keep replying, I won't see it.

That BYU QB caught a rape case, got thrown out of school and started posting on 4chan /cfb/. What a down fall.

>>149764126
Auburn?

>>149760202
For some reason I thought Tulane was a Catholic university.

>>149763445
By merging them. Wyoming does fine with just one senior university and it's obvious that New Mexico really can't support two. The division between land grant and comprehensive is long gone. This isn't even about athletics. The academic side of things would benefit from concentrating resources into one campus. Athletics however would benefit as a result. But it won't happen for political reasons.

>>149771632
That decision might be forced by economics. Student enrollment will fall off a cliff nationwide in the very near future. That will cause certain private schools to close down. Not the good ones, but the small and really expensive liberal arts schools that only offer meme degrees have a grim future. Public schools will also have some closures and contraction. The Penn State system recently announced they are closing down some of their satellite campuses.

The Chief of Staff for Auburn football has quit to take a job as a fund raiser at Liberty. He came to Auburn from Liberty with Hugh Freeze. That's he's jumping off the Freeze ship to a much lower level position at a far lower level school is highly unusual. It's possible he simply wanted to return to Virginia "to spend more time with family" but more likely is trying to get ahead of what's coming for the program this season.

>>149777446
Why does that guy always look like he was just released after a night in the drunk tank?

>Stalions bristled at the latest attempt to suggest Michigan won or lost games because of his sign-stealing role with the team.
>"There were 7 games in my time at Michigan where I knew almost every signal the whole game: 2021 MSU, 2022 MSU, 2022 PSU, 2022 OSU, 2022 TCU, 2021 Georgia, and 2021 Wisconsin," Stalions wrote in his post. "We lost 3 of those games because we didn't tackle well, and Georgia was historically good. We won the four other games because we dominated the line of scrimmage & tackled well. Blocking, ball security, tackling, run fits & coverage tools.
>"That's football. This is not rocket science."

I miss college football so much bros

>>149778927
Begs the question of why he went to so much trouble to steal signs if it apparently doesn't help you win at all

>>149777446
Is a fund raiser at a private school flush with cash, mega donors, and a religious angle (easy sell) really that much lower than head secretary at a middle of the pack SEC football program?

>>149777446
He was a former Liberty football player. His new position at Liberty is an Associate AD position.

>>149779679
For career advancement, yes, it's a huge step backwards. For quality of life, if he plays his cards right, it would be incredibly comfy, especially since the fund raising side of things typically is independent of whatever is going on with the coaching staff. A bad coach can make the job more difficult but when he's fired, the fund raising staff isn't fired with him like happens if you're part of football operations.
Dude may have decided he's not interested in following Freeze around the country on his way down to coaching at a rural Christian academy and would rather put down roots in Lynchburg. If not for all the weirdness surrounding Freeze, I'd assume he had family business back in Virginia that needs long term attention rather than it being a signal about the state of the football program at Auburn. That weirdness does exist and the timing is sus. Maybe it's coincidence but I'd bet on the guy knowing something and being proactive about his own future instead of panicking around Thanksgiving looking for a new job.

>>149779773
Nick Saban is a former Kent State player. He still jumped at the chance to leave the Kent State coaching staff to go be an assistant at Syracuse. "Coming home to momma" is marketing spin that only the most gullible fall for.

>>149779837
The guy is a bean counter not a football coach.

>>149777446

Well what do you know, just as I suspected, that's a fake article. A google search for that title returns nothing but meme pages, and a search for Jakob Blinken returns no one by that name.

Why do you people love humiliating yourselves like this so much? You're no better than the blacks who think Mozart is black just because some facebook meme told them. And just like those blacks you believe this memes with every bone in your body.

>>149779837
Saban only played for Kent State because he was too small and not good enough to play at West Virginia under Bobby Bowden

>>149781029
My sense of time is pretty fucked up if Saban could have played for Bowden.

>>149781097
Only reason he wasn't shot by national guard troops is because he is so short the bullets flew overhead.

>>149772484
>Also, Texas is NOT a southern state btw
Don't make me tap the glass again.

>>149781097
Bowden was WVU's head coach from 1970-75 and Saban was varsity at Kent State from 70-72. Though now that I think about it he might have been a freshman in 1969 which means Jim Carlen would’ve been the head coach and Bowden only the OC.

>>149779184
He wouldn't, which is why this whole "scandal" was absurd from the beginning.

>>149781663
The sign stealing and IRL scouting of upcoming opponents definitely happened. Why do it in the first place if it's not to help your team win? What did Stalions/Michigan get out of this if not a better chance of winning?

>>149781805
It's hilarious that people here still don't get that what you've posted there ISN'T AGAINST THE RULES! Literally every major team has a guy like this. Why do you think coaches always hold the play sheet in front of their faces when they call plays? They know someone is watching!
This issue here isn't whether Stallions deciphered signals on the fly during Michigan games. Of course he did, but NCAA rules don't prohibit that. What they DO prohibit is going to games your team ISN'T in and record video of someone's signals. But no one has provided evidence of Stallions actually doing this. And considering the "All 22" video that coaches always get of their opponents ahead of time gives you a view of both the players and the coaches, why not use that instead of traveling out to games and record something from 40 rows up into the stands with your cell phone camera, especially when the former isn't prohibited but the latter is?
This whole thing is silly and shows a lack of understanding of how football actually works. But hey, it gives you an opportunity to scream "CHEATER!" at a team that you don't like, so by all means, have at it. I'll just keep laughing at your ignorance.

New SBC West Jabroni for the East to feed on

>>149785115
I'm assuming you're talking about Springfest, which was an unofficial annual party where JMU students would get fucked up in off campus parking lots. A massive amount of of out of towners showed up to one of those parking lots, started getting hammered, and then refused to disperse when the police showed up. They started throwing beer bottles at the police so the cops broke out the tear gas. Sadly, that was the last time we had Springfest.

>>149785138
It should have been grip and sip. LA Tech has a sorry-ass football program.

Kent State is hiring him for 1 trillion dollars

>>149788229
Really doubt he'd go back to FBS. The things that got him to quit are still there. He's in good shape for his age but he's still old. Before quitting he had an insane amount of institutional momentum behind him, running lots of the program on, what for him, was autopilot, so he could concentrate on players and coaches. He's not going to get that anywhere he could go.
Him coaching a high school team would make sense. Maybe at a private school so he could tell parents to fuck off it any of them got uppity.

Apparently, the QB coach at CMU at the time was an old friend of Stallions, and invited him to the game as a personal guest.
Funnily enough, that wasn't technically a rules violation, either, as Stallions wasn't there on behalf of Michigan. But it ended up as one of those "the cover up is worse than the crime" things, and the QB coach lost his job and the head coach "retired" after last season.

>>149791151
The guy on the ground probably said something antisemitic

>CMU officials said preliminary enrollment numbers showed 14,411 students are attending the Mount Pleasant-based institution’s classes this fall.
>The last time CMU’s student population was smaller: 1973, when enrollment was 14,270.
>The decline this semester marked the eighth consecutive year the university experienced a decrease in students. CMU hit its all-time enrollment peak in 2015, when 25,528 students attended classes there.
Central used to be a party school but some academics hated that so they cleaned things up and now the students are going elsewhere. Don't necessarily disagree with the academics as getting teens to go deep into debt to have a four (or more) year party is a moral hazard. Nevertheless, the school is clearly in decline. Maybe they'll plateau with a student body that's mainly there to earn a degree first and party second.

>>149791310
Of course it is. Both stallions and the qb coach had Michigan ties.
Cmu can't afford to lose sharty, good payout, hour bus drive, and when wmu or cmu show up its a great party atmosphere. Every 2-3 years they are scheduled to play rotating with wmu

>>149791376
In 2010 they had so many extra students they were putting 5 in a 4 person dorm and giving them 10% off dorm cost, some unused rooms were also turned into bunks. They repeatedly attacked partying, drinking and tailgating. In 2009 they made a 6 beer limit at tailgate so pppl just tailgated at the frat streets and didn't even go to the game. They are a teachers college, they will never be an academic college. Even mount pleasant police joined in and went full retard zero partying. Imagine doing this and not looking at the demographic cliff in Michigan. Wmu and emu also experienced 25-30% declines in enrollment. Michigan mip laws also were made to skullfuck people taking licenses, community service, thousands in fines, year probation...not duis but minor in possession of booze. Sometime before covid they made it just a fine but watching siblings and cousins getting skullfucked for drinking a beer was nutty. No wonder zoomers dont drink

>>149791151
Actual nothing burger.

>>149791376
No one goes to a directional school like CMU to “earn a degree” except single mothers not stupid enough to fall for the Phoenix or online for-profit scam.

>>149791879
Hate to break it to you anon, but all colleges are for-profit scams.

>>149791559
Seems like Eastern is in the best place to survive if they have competent leadership. Ypsilanti sucks but is so close to Ann Arbor that students there can LARP like they're attending UM. The western suburbs keep growing even if the state overall has stagnated. If they could Techwood the housing projects, the western creep of Detroit's suburbs and the expansion of Ann Arbor would make gentrification happen.
But competent leadership is far from guaranteed, especially at down market schools. I've never been a big fan of them leaning into the decaying rustbelt identity. Play up having the UM experience at a lower cost and with less effort instead of advertising that it's a decaying dump.

>>149791376
Isn’t this pretty typical of lower tier schools? Zoomers aren’t falling as hard for the student loan jew.

>part time graduate programs are a money grab
>they're just regular graduate programs offered part time
Are you genuinely retarded?

>>149793316
Part-time programs are just one example, but the larger point is this: ALL colleges big, small, state, private and even shit ass community colleges expand their course offerings not to better educate students, but to bring in more revenue. Prestige programs act as bait, while the rest of the catalog is padded to maximize enrollment.

>>149793413
Grad school has always been "part time" numb nuts. It's a tradition at this point. The ye oldyn tymes, grad students were expected to work at the university and their classes were offered after business hours to accommodate their schedules and the schedules of the faculty who taught those courses (since they are also often more advanced/senior faculty who have more obligations). When Gen X'ers needed to go back to school because graduate degrees started being needed more often, they just slid into the old graduate schedule.

Part-time studies have also been a thing for longer than you have been alive. You're a fucking retard and coping about it. There's plenty to bitch about regarding the academic bubble, but the schedules and part time graduate studies aren't part of the curriculum on that front.

Go back to discuss whatever shithole university you crawled out of.

Did you know that Eastern Michigan's mascot used to be the Hurons, before some woke loser decided that was "offensive" and they changed the name to the Eagles? True story.

>>149797175
Their history is a bit weird but there's little reason to actually care. They started out as the Normalites, which everyone agreed was stupid, so they had a contest, with Pioneers and Hurons being the top choices. One of the students who suggested the name did so because he worked at the Huron Hotel. Decades later the state government spent a bunch of money on a civil rights commission to find things to be angry about, which included using Native American names on things.
The university committee on renaming things to offend white girls less came up with three choices: Green Hornets, Express, or Eagles. The obvious choice of Emus was never given any serious thought. A couple decades later, band dorks, being band dorks, thought it would be edgy to wear the old Hurons logo on their uniforms but being cowardly band dorks, the logos were hidden inside the uniform sleeve where no one could see them. Also being band dorks, they couldn't keep a secret so word got out and the professionally offended pounced into action.
It's too bad the Huron tribe has a bunch of wampum up their asses and can't make a deal with the university like the Seminoles do with Florida State and the Utes with Utah. Unlike some schools like Stanford that had goofy Indian logos at times, EMU's Hurons logo always had been dignified, even if a bit lacking a chin.

>>149797175
>some woke loser
Let me guess, some upper middle-class white woman with a savior complex?

>>149797815
It was the Michigan Civil Rights Commission that had the problem with the old name. Pic related is what it looks like today but it was the commission back in 1988 that issued the ruling against the name. Probably looked similar but with poofier hair.

>>149797272
Meanwhile, the Chippewa happily let Central keep using their name just a hundred miles or so to the north.
I still say Hurons is a better name than "Eagles", so yes, I care.

>>149798240
As far as I can tell, there's less than 1,000 of them in Michigan and they don't even use the Huron name anymore.

Yes. Michigan Alabama was the natty.

>>149796560

There has been no resolution to the conflict between the PAC12 and Mountain West. Since the mediation process failed to resolve the issues, the two lawsuits, one about poaching fees and the other about exit fees, are headed to trial in September.
On the line is about $150 million in fees that the PAC12 and schools changing conferences could owe to the Mountain West. Losing both cases would be damaging to the PAC12 and the new members but they would survive. If the Mountain West loses, it doesn't have the money it promised to UNLV and Air Force to stay in the conference, meaning both are likely to leave. UNLV's finances are in bad shape and they need the extra money, making them an easy poaching target if their extra share vaporizes.

If UNLV and Air Force were to leave, that would leave the conference with only six full football members. It's unlikely they could poach anyone from the AAC or SunBelt. They could swallow their pride and bring in New Mexico State. UNM would be unhappy but desperate times might call for it. They could also pressure NIU to become a full member. Another option would be to simply merge with Conference USA. Delaware and Hawaii in the same conference would be ugly but the bottom of FBS often has such issues.

>>149808644
Trump has tried to help the service academies by letting them be flexible with when the players must fulfill their service obligations. Biden did away with that but I assume Trump has reinstated it. One thing they can't do is revenue sharing or NIL, which is going to make things more difficult. They do however have all their living expenses taken care of and receive service pay.
While they do have a budget they have to stick to, they really don't play money games in the traditional sense. They play strong programs for exposure. Navy plays ND every year and almost always lose but that gets them on national television. The whole thing is a free ad for Navy that, other than the team losing, is guaranteed to be all positive coverage.

>>149810517
The exit fees are part of the court case but even without that, they were promised extra money from the conference. If the conference violates that agreement, it'll be lucky if the schools just go away without suing the Mountain West for breach of contract. The conference can't violate the agreement and then try to enforce the agreement. That makes no sense.

>>149812585
Casuals don't and probably can't understand the Flexbone. They just want to see deep bombs, high scores, etc. It's why football, especially the NFL, over time has limited what defenses can do. Same thing happened with the NHL, NBA, and to a lesser extent MLB. Casuals just love lots of scoring, unless they're non-Americans, then they're fine with 0-0 ties and faking injuries.

>>149812690
If an academy is good enough to make the playoff they are probably scoring a lot of points by option standards. Casuals might not understand the intricacies of the playbook but they can understand gouging the defense with nonstop 5-15 yard rushes and dominating TOP.

>>149812727
Unless it's how Air Force runs it, which is very tradition. A LOT of FB dives, even if just for 2-3 yards. I'm not sure casuals will ever like that or understand the purpose. Army would have games where the other team had 1 possession in the first quarter, and it was glorious. That kind of game control is amazing.

>>149813782
Best ever arguments are dumb for this reason. There’s no real way to compare.

Now greatest ever, that’s a fun discussion.

>>149813782
Improvements to nutrition and training have effectively turned modern athletes into ubermensch. 50+ years ago they were still regular people who just happened to be a bit bigger and faster and more athletic. Baseball and soccer are the only sports where you can reasonably compare players/teams across eras. Bad basketball/football/hockey teams would humiliate the best team in the league 50+ years ago.

>>149813849
Not even a fun discussion because the skill gap and how advanced the game has gotten is absurd. Burrow's LSU team would BTFO of every great team prior to 2000 or maybe even later. Even that loaded Miami U team wouldn't stand a chance.

>>149813869
>Baseball and soccer are the only sports where you can reasonably compare players/teams across eras
Not really. Pitchers throw so much harder today than ever before. Anything pre-steriod era (so basically pre-90s) wouldn't have a chance. Babe Ruth wouldn't even make a team today. Griffey Jr. (to use a non-roid user) would have hit 1000+ HRs if he played in most decades of the sport. Randy Johnson would have had 10k strikeouts because nobody saw a 92MPH slider back in the 50s or 60s.

>The Bama bonus is re-ACK

>>149813918
You're assuming Ruth/other old players wouldn't have access to modern training and coaching if they were magically teleported into the modern game. He clearly had a good swing and knew how to hit, which can translate no matter when you're playing. Would he be as dominant against modern pitchers? No, but I'm sure with an offseason working under modern hitting coaches and watching film of modern pitchers he'd adapt. There are also benefits modern players enjoy that older players didn't. Ruth could be more fearless about crowding the plate today with a batting helmet and elbow pad that didn't exist in his day, as well as pitchers now being less likely to intentionally throw at your head. The bats themselves are also stronger with better sweet spots today.

My point is with baseball it's less about having a physical advantage over your opponent by stacking your roster full of freaks of nature. In football modern OLs/DLs would absolutely rape any team from the 80s or earlier, while OLs/DLs from that time would be grossly undersized by modern standards. Power RBs like Derek Henry and Marshawn Lynch could carry entire defenses on their back if they were sent far enough back in time. In hockey most goalies today would be the biggest and most athletic guy on the team in the 80s or farther back while goalies from back then were usually the smallest, shortest, slowest guy on the team. Basketball had a few freaks in the past who could hang today like Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russel, but you could put backups from the modern NBA into their era and they would perform at a HoF level.

>>149814155
Ruth never faced anything like they have today. Nobody was throwing 101MPH fastballs, 97MPH cutters, 89MPH sweepers, etc., etc., etc. He played in an era where people still had regular jobs and the vast majority of players wouldn't even do well against a minor league team.
>Ruth could be more fearless about crowding the plate today
No because even with modern helmets and guards, getting hit by a 100MPH ball can kill you or break bones. Plenty of players break their hands from it. You're also not allowed to just stand there, you must make an attempt to get out of the way of the ball, or it's not ruled a HBP.
>The bats themselves are also stronger with better sweet spots today
Babe Ruth used one of, it not the, heaviest bat of all-time. You can't find a bigger bat than that, and great players don't always use the biggest bat. There's also a ton of regulations today on bats from their length, barrel size, weight, etc.
>In football modern OLs/DLs would absolutely rape any team from the 80s or earlier
100% correct
>Power RBs like Derek Henry and Marshawn Lynch could carry entire defenses on their back if they were sent far enough back in time
Also correct and the inverse is true too, which is why Jim Brown is the most overrated back of all-time. I get boomers and older suck him off like no other, but he would have been average in the 70s, bad in the 80s, and not even on a roster in the 90s. Like most old players, 100% a product of his time.
>who could hang today like Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russel
I'm not sure about that, just because the modern game is about space and spreading everyone out. The post-player is mostly obsolete. You need speed and shooting efficiency. Chamberlain played in an era of very low shooting efficiency, which bloats the fuck out of his rebounds and points.

>>149813918
That’s not the greatest discussion, that’s the best discussion. I agree the “best” discussion is boring though. “2019 LSU would crush 2001 Miami” I mean… sure? It can’t really proven either way so fine.

>>149814425
Greatest team, and the term greatest is not used interchangeably with best. Babe Ruth tops pretty much every greatest baseball player list, but as you point out there are many players today who are better. Another example is ESPN calling 1971 Nebraska the greatest team, but it’s unlikely they would have picked them over 2001 Miami or 2004 USC in a game (for a more absurd example from the same list, 1945 Army was ranked ahead of 2001 Miami). Miami and USC were better teams than Nebraska and Army, but they were not greater teams.

>>149815156
How can you say a team is the greatest when they can't beat other teams? That would show they weren't the greatest. What is the criteria for "the greatest team"?
>Babe Ruth tops pretty much every greatest baseball player list

>>149815327

>>149815283
>How can you say a team is the greatest when they can't beat other teams?
Because being able to beat every other team ever is the definition of best, not greatest. Again, these terms are not interchangeable.
>That would show they weren't the greatest.
*best.
>What is the criteria for "the greatest team"?
The accepted definition of greatest seems to be most dominant over peers. This makes sense - we can’t put teams from different eras against each other, but we can compare how they did against their competition. Yet another example is the 1972 Dolphins, who top just about every greatest NFL teams list. No one would seriously pick them in a game against the 2013 Seahawks. Yet they are (somehow) the only team ever to beat all of their opponents, so they’re the greatest. But not the best.
>Barry Bonds is the GOAT
BOAT maybe.

>>149815366
That doesn’t scare me as much as a 90 mph baseball to the head.

>>149815407
>The accepted definition of greatest seems to be most dominant over peers
Then you're just bloating up players that played in eras with terrible talent. By that definition, Michael Jordan isn't the GOAT, as someone like Wilt was far more dominate over his peers. Anyone with a brain though understands that Jordan's competition was vastly superior to that of Wilt's. So going by "dominance over peers" eliminates all those past a certain point in history when overall talent went up.

>>149815327
>masks weren't mandatory for hockey goalies until the 60s
Toughness back then vs toughness today is an overlooked factor when we assume pampered zoomer athletes would dominate these proto-boomers who didn't give a fuck about dying during a game

>>149813099
Careful, you’ll summon the shills.

>>149815661
I'm not sure. There was that hockey player in the past decade that got hit by a car as a pedestrian and still played in the game that day. Modern football players would still be out on the field after getting a concussion if they were allowed to. Same thing with using their heads as a weapon. If it was allowed still, the sport would be much more dangerous since everyone is much faster while being bigger and stronger. The players are still crazy, the sports have just evolved to minimize how crazy they can be. Uncage them and shit hits the fan pretty fast.

>>149813782
At best you can try to compare them by looking at which teams were the biggest outliers for their era.
>>149813844
One of the funniest games I've seen was one where Auburn held on to the ball the entire third quarter. Spurrier had to stand there on the sideline the entire quarter with nothing to do but hold his dick in his hand.
Auburn's offense wasn't fast. It didn't make large gains often. It just kept grinding out what they needed for a first down. Once they scored and SCar was about to get the ball for the first time that half, a well executed on-sides kick kept the ball in Auburn's hands, so they did it again, slowly grinding down the field a couple of yards per play.

>>149814632

South Carolina scored right before halftime and thought they had gained the momentum in the game. They also lead in Time of Possession. The third quarter took care of both.
Re-watching that quarter it's interesting to see that when Auburn has a large gain, it's usually because it was third and long, with them getting just enough for the first down. Hard to script a better way to grind out the clock. They didn't even cross midfield until an unusually long pass more than five minutes into the quarter.

>>149817037

SEC Trojan Horse incoming. SEC Commissioner Sankey has come out strongly in favor of moving to a nine game conference schedule. What he didn't mention is his support for autobids into the CFP being restricted to teams from conferences with nine conference games. Conferences with less than nine games would still be eligible for at-large bids but would not get any autobids, not even for the conference champion.
This is clearly aimed at the ACC and Notre Dame. While the ACC has a scheduling agreement with Notre Dame, those are not conference games. The Big Ten likely is also behind this move, as it puts pressure on ND to fully join a conference by pressuring the ACC to move to nine conference games, which would make the current arrangement with ND difficult. Both the SEC and Big Ten have reasons to want the ACC to be weak. Not just to pick off the few valuable members but also to minimize how many slots ACC teams can access in the CFP.
Doubt this is a move to an all SEC-Big Ten playoff (or league) as keeping around a stable of hapless competition has its advantages. But it does reduce the amount of money that trickles down to the non-P2 conferences.
Also worth noting that G5 conferences usually play eight conference games so they will have an extra slot for a money game. Also some of them aren't going to have enough members to play a nine conference game schedule. This means that simply being the best G5 champion won't guarantee a CFP slot. I'm sure there will be a G5 slot of some kind left in the playoff to avoid any antitrust issues, but it'll probably end up being the last seed most years.

Why do players talk shit about their opponents this early in the off season? What is the point of that? Why would you give some one weight room material?

>>149826363
Because they want attention and material for the social media presence. Most players don't actually give a damn about their team performance, just their own, which I understand. Even in the NFL, I get why a player that isn't getting paid top-5/10 money wouldn't give a fuck about team performance.

>>149826309
for all intents and purposes you're correct but technically they want a default clause added that says they can void the money if he violates the contract in some way. which is retarded considering there are about 5 million ways both sides violate these contracts. usually im with the bix nood mofuggah crowd but in this case the bengals are being ridiculous and they need to fuck off with this nonsense

neither of those will happen, congress might try but I doubt it since that is really legally dubious territory and I think it works against the superstars to collectively bargain in the case of college football

i am buried at work right now but i think they put a cap on either NIL (unenforceable again) and/or school payrolls at $20m as well right? Which seems fair on the surface but it feels like cfb is on a collision course with promotion/relegation system the way things are going

There is going to be no enforced as far as I can see.

>>149826712
It's enforceable if the member institutions agree to it

>>149829480
which will never happen especially in the SEC and to a lesser extent the big 10. half the acc schools won't either.

>>149829566
Thr schools are the ones pushing for it, they don't like the current state of NIL. It's the players who would oppose.

>>149829844
Some schools will shit and fart all over the place before they would comply. Tennessee sued the NCAA to prevent enforcement of NIL rules. Then there are the states whose politicians are passing state laws saying "Fuck NIL rules our schools can do whatever they want and it's illegal to punish them." A federal law cockslapping these retards is the only thing that will get them to fall in line.

GOOD MORNING SIRS!
WE HOOK THEM IN DKR ROYAL STADIUM

>>149830684
Problem is that different rules are more advantageous to some schools than they are to others. The bottom of the G6 would like for there to be no revenue sharing and no NIL while wealthy programs like Texas and Ohio State are happy to be able to buy players on the open market.
Having the NCAA, which has both the wealthy teams and the poverty schools as members, come up with rules that make everyone happy is nearly impossible. Someone is always going to feel slighted and then go crying to the courts. Ultimately Congress has to do something if the rule by courts is to end.

UC is a below average football school. They have a few years every once in a while where they win 9+ games, but they're mostly a 4-7 win team. In the Big 12 they're overmatched. This is the same school that won 4 games in back-to-back seasons while in the American. Yeah, that's not a good sign.

>>149836264
I don't understand why these 2 schools that are 1200 miles apart have a rivalry.

>>149836388
It was one sided and not really even a rivalry to the fanbase. The administrators at UConn tried to create a rivalry out of thin air. UCF completely ignored it and UConn fans never seemed all the excited about it. When UCF won the game, they refused to take the trophy with them.

Not wrong. We somehow made our HCs buy out even bigger by letting him donate less money to the program than what it would take to fire him so we're now stuck with him and additional two years before we can even consider firing him at the minimum.

We hired a washed up gus malzhan and a literal who from Nebraska to run the defense. This is going to be so stupid of a season. To top it off our QB who is a booted broke ass transfer from fucking Boston college decided to run his mouth off against Alabama who opens our season in our busted ass incomplete renovated stadium.

National Championship titles for years when there were only two or three teams playing shouldn't really count.

My dear brother you are coming to Texas soon??? Very very good news. You are most welcome to great land of freedom and belt buckle.

Please I am telling you now only, no confusion you must support Texas Longhorn. No other team okay?? We are wearing the Burnt Orange with proudness. Big quarterback, he name is Arch Manning. He is like godchild of American football.

We can do one thing brother. We can break naan together and have chutneys and talk Longhorn game. After that, maybe we are doing small cruise to see bob and veegen show.

Yes yes, also I am seeing now Indian population in Austin is growing like anything! Everywhere you are going, one fellow is saying “bro try dosa here” and another is opening tech startup from apartment. Great success. Many gift cards.

Texas is big. People love this team like it is part of religion here. If you say you support Longhorn, they are smiling and giving you beer. Maybe hand out HB1?

Other day for my IT work I have to go College Station. This is enemy ground they are calling it home of Aggie. On the way back I stop at their big football stadium just for seeing. I ask where ticket gate is man show me and walks away. Brother I had spicy curry before. Belly was making war drum noises. What to do? I go behind gate and I shit on it. I am sorry to god but it felt like victory. Never trust the Aggie.

>We hired a washed up gus malzhan
I don't think he's washed up. Firing him has had disastrous consequences for Auburn.
>and a literal who from Nebraska to run the defense.
He was a solid DC at Nebraska considering what he had to work with. I think it was a good hire, definitely a guy that's going to be able to take advantage of the speed you guy have.

>>149848609
>Texas wank
What causes this? Is it all Arch hype? Because the roster isn't as good as people make out. They're #5 or #6 in the nation in terms of blue chip ratio.
Historically, teams that have to reshuffle their entire OL don't go the distance.

>>149848274
he's not really a dual threat, got adjusted to by defenses, then couldn't adjust back. some people are blaming obriens offense which im sure carries some water but i think it's more simply the player isn't that talented

>>149854903
The OL is new but old. They aren’t young bucks getting thrown in there. Neto is a senior getting his first start. Then you have Brandon baker who was a 5 star getting his first start. You have Trevor goosby who was thrown to the wolves against Georgia and did admirable barring one sack from mykel williams but let’s face it mykel Williams was doing that to everybody. DJ Campbell is an experience senior and former 5 star. The center I forgot his name but he actually has played a shitload of snaps. The OL will be significantly bigger/faster/stronger than last years. Whether they get confused and fuck up constantly remains to be seen. I think it’s reasonable to think Ohio state is going to fuck them up and probably Georgia too. But by the time playoffs arrive they might be clicking.

Texas has a championship tier defense on paper. The biggest concern there is the secondary but at the same time every single player there was a top 10 recruit at the position and the program has a strong history of developing DBs.

I think you will see the same shit as last year in terms of them having a dominant defense and an unreliable offense. That puts them in a position to win a lot of games and if arch is only a little better than hobbled whom sewers was they look like the team to beat

>>149852236
Those are the only years that count in my opinion. How is it a “national” champion if you don’t actually beat every team in the nation?

You understate this but it's arguably the most important part. This unit does not have the cohesion the last group had.
>The OL will be significantly bigger/faster/stronger than last years.
Didn't Texas run for like 300 yards against Clemson? You're highly underestimating how good the unit last season was.
>Texas has a championship tier defense on paper.
This is one I'm definitely not buying. You're basing this entirely on their portal additions working out for 2 consecutive years which the odds aren't good considering how dogshit the portal was this cycle.

>>149815517
>Then you're just bloating up players that played in eras with terrible talent.
You’re just excusing teams and players who couldn’t dominate their opponents.
>By that definition, Michael Jordan isn't the GOAT, as someone like Wilt was far more dominate over his peers.
Wilt didn’t dominate at all. His ball hogging gave him an eye-popping stat sheet, but his team’s offenses tended to be mediocre. It wasn’t until he played more team-oriented basketball that brought his stats back to earth that he won a championship, and his second MVP. Jordan was far more dominant.
>Anyone with a brain though understands that Jordan's competition was vastly superior to that of Wilt's
As stated above, Wilt didn’t even dominate his inferior competition, so obviously MJ was greater.
>So going by "dominance over peers" eliminates all those past a certain point in history when overall talent went up.
If that were true, the 1972 Dolphins, Babe Ruth, the 1971 Cornhuskers and probably even Pele would be disregarded today, but they aren’t. So this is wrong.

>>149858962
>Wilt didn't dominate at all
You're actually retarded or just a child that refuses to admit when they're wrong. Lets take his and Jordan's best scoring seasons.
>Wilt's PPG average was better than the next guy by 19 while Jordan's was only better by 8
>Wilt's total points was 1600 more than the next guy, Jordan's was 700
Sure the fuck seems like Wilt absolutely DOMINATED. You clearly just refuse to admit that your definition of Greatest is flawed. Sad that you still have the mindset of a child. I accept your concession that I'm right and you're wrong. Filtered. Now be a good child and reply more, I won't see it. I know you can't resist, you're already typing.

Lanorris Sellers is extremely good and, along with a rare bevy of NFL draft picks on defense, was the catalyst for South Carolina being so good.

Hugh Freeze has a reality distortion field but it only works on about 5% of people. Most see he's an alcoholic loser but that 5% the field works on are the most insane nut huggers you'll even encounter. The journalist who is predicting Auburn to finish first is sure he's going to be able to say "told you so, never doubt Brother Freeze" at the end of the season. Should be interesting to see what excuse they come up with when Pavia beats Freeze again and costs him his job.

>>149854781
Gus hit his ceiling at Auburn and couldn't handle all the responsibilities of being a head coach while also innovating the offense in response to changes in the game. That's part of the reason why most seasons he'd had two or three games where the team looked completely unprepared while against top opponents, they could look like a top five team. He has a good shot at being a quality OC at FSU but never again should be an FBS head coach.
As for Auburn, they simply fucked up the coaching search twice in a row, following the Tennessee blueprint on how you ruin a program for a decade with bad hiring. If Freeze gets fired and they are able to get Rhett Lashlee like is rumored to be their top target, they'll likely be at least back to Gus levels again. If they keep Freeze or have to go through another coaching search run by retards, the Gus days will continue to look good in comparison.

>>149868178
People memory of Malzahn's time at Auburn, especially those who aren't Auburn fans, is distorted by him beating Saban more frequently than other coaches. They don't remember the frequent losses to unranked teams in the middle of season or his terrible post-season record. They don't remember his inability to win conference road games. Zero wins in Tuscaloosa. Zero wins in Athens. Zero wins in Baton Rouge.
Husky Harsin and Huge Sleaze being bad coaches doesn't make Malzahn into a good head coach.

>300 yards against clempus
Schematic and bad coaching on the part of clempus. They were like confused by outside zone somehow. In the next week Texas could not run the ball against the likes of ASU

You’re not buying that Texas will have an elite defense? Lol okay bro. They have stars and NFL players at every level. It’s not likely that all 5 DT transfers are busts.

What is it about that port city that makes tiny hats feel so at home there?

The AAC would like you to please stop referring to them as the AAC, as they have officially dropped the word "Athletic" from their name. Also, they have a new, completely pointless mascot.

>>149893607
where do they stand on "tank conference"?

>>149893607
>conference itself has a mascot
but why?

>>149893607
One main driver for the change was confusion between the AAC and ACC. We hope that this mascot clears everything up.
P.S. please don't confuse the new mascot with the American University Eagles.

I’m guessing this is SEC Shorts. Other than one guy spamming they’re not really popular here.

Yes, but there is no way their current coach does that.

>>149892266
>Clempus
Could be but it's not like Clempus has a dogshit DL, it was an extremely impressive rushing performance with what I consider average backs.
>You’re not buying that Texas will have an elite defense? Lol okay bro. They have stars and NFL players at every level. It’s not likely that all 5 DT transfers are busts.
It would be unprecedented if Texas nailed the portal on DL 2 years in a row. I think losing Barron & Mukaba is a big deal, too.
I'm not saying they're gonna be shit, but I think some of the hype needs to be checked a little.
That DL last year looked 2021 UGA-esque at times, it's very hard to replicate the balance of talent & synergy required for performance like that.

>>149889873
Addition of Texas State makes them #3 in my book. I used to fuck a girl who went there.

>>149889873
It's not the Pac-12 I grew up with but I'm happy the conference didn't just die to be honest. And I suppose there is always an outside chance that the California ACC teams come back.

>>149888245
SECfags love to bitch and whine about "their" recruits getting poached by out of region schools, yet it's OK when their schools sign players from outside of the South. Alabama's 2026 class has blue chip commitments from MD, IL, CA and NE. Georgia's class has blue chips from OH, MI and MD. A&M's class has blue chips from CA, OH, NJ and UT. They all get blue chips from NC and VA too, which are regional but not in the SEC's footprint.
>tldr "muh instate recruiting" is just EEC copium (this talking point didn't exist when Tua/Hawaii and Bowers/California and Burrow/Ohio were winning titles for SEC teams)

Cole brevard is absolutely massive and insanely strong and has played a million snaps and is 24 years old or something. And this is his contract year for the NFL. It’s not like the Texas coaching staff is buying a lottery ticket. The guy is not going to be bad.

Maraad Watson was coveted by Ohio state and Georgia. Freshman all American. He had one of his best games against Miami and the tape doesn’t lie. Dude is objectively a good athlete and still losing his baby fat and getting stronger.

Some of the other guys are more speculative. Travis Shaw could either be great or confirm my suspicions that he is charmin soft. Regardless I would say the DT room has a floor of “decent”. Also I could see Justus Terry playing as a freshman and being alright. Even if he is still a bit small, he can make up for it with twitch

>>149859367
Your issue here is that thinking that one player having a high number of points is necessarily good for that team. It's not. It's the opposite in fact. If a team is heavily dependent on one player for their scores, it's probably a bad team. Pic related; there are no champions in this image. Jordan didn't win anything until Phil Jackson taught him to pass, and Wilt didn't win anything until Alex Hannum taught him the same thing.

It's obvious why when you think about it. Wilt scoring 50 points per game seems great, until you realize the league averaged 119 points per game that year. His team's offense only scored a couple of more points than second place, so Wilt hogging the ball wasn’t actually generating tons more offense, it was just making the Warriors dependent on him, and he usually choked in the biggest moments.

The players weren't fooled. Bill Russell was voted MVP in 1962 (this was awarded by the players at the time), just as he was in 1961 and 1963. Russell never cared much about stats, he just wanted to win. You can't win if you're not playing team basketball, and it took Wilt years to realize this. When he won his first championship, he only scored 24 points per game, but he was playing team ball.

Paul is live

Lmao, Memphis tried to buy a ticket to the big 12 and was shown the door

It's more about the depth. Texas was 2-3 deep of capable starters across their front 4 last season.

>Memphis’ proposal is described as a “no-risk” concept, according to some in the Big 12, and it also sets a standard, perhaps, of expansion fees to enter a league. The school would: take zero distribution for the final five years of the league’s new television deal with ESPN and FOX; add the sponsorships in excess of $150 million over five years; and subject itself to expulsion after 2030-31 if Big 12 deems it is not adding value.
I understand the last part (namely no one is going to set precedent for kicking members out) but imagine if they had to expell itself back to the American lol

The bigger question is where Memphis got $200 mil

Who is your early favorite to win KWABOTY?

>>149898609
FedEx, they're HQ'd in Memphis and have promised big donations if Memphis gets into a P4 conference

>>149898654
Mememphis for trying to buy their way into the Big 12 and getting rejected.

>>149899024
Should honestly go to pac with that money

>>149899036
Why not just wait it out and go ACC when they get raided.

>>149898807
Yes, the head of FedEx has been making that promise for decades. It started off with a promise to invest a hundred million if the SEC took them. Guess inflation has bumped it up to two hundred million while shrinkflation bumped the acceptable conference down to the Big 12.
Problem for Memphis is that this behavior shows the donors value the conference more than they value the program. The other G5 schools that make their way up into the Big 12 invested in their programs first, their boosters taking a risk on the program since there was no guarantee of membership. When Memphis boosters require membership first and then donate to the program, it sends a clear signal to conferences that not even Memphis's supporters have much faith in the program.
>>149899306
Probably mostly impatience though there might be fear that the ACC collapses completely/ends up merging with The American, which would mean Memphis would end up in the same place whatever they do.

>>149899472
If anything, the PAC merger with the MWC falling through and the PAC rising from the ashes to the point where people are actually still interested in the conference shows that the ACC leadership would be absolutely retarded to merge with any lesser conference. The American is/was not on par with the MWC.

>>149899472
It's not like Memphis isn't trying and they're just content to be complete garbage athletically. They have respectable football and basketball.
