Yeah this is the sad part. The state of college football is the test case of what happens when you turn over all the power to teenagers and kids in their early 20s.
He set a record, then deuced out on his team, which really isn't his team because he transferred there.
I know the model is what it is and we have to play the game to compete. But the reality is the game sucks as it currently is. And Ward bailing on his team, then being allowed on the sidelines to continue in some weird coaching and helping give signs role makes no sense to me and highlights just how bad things have gotten.
Nothing surprises me now days.
I personally love to see this stuff. Just like the the bear sharks not making the playoff. It all adds to the ultimate demise of NIL/Portal
Fixed it for you. The Big 30-32 will survive like the NFL model. They will use programs like MSU as their "minor" league feeder program.Quote:

The conspiracy theorist in me thinks the powers that be knew 20 years ago where college fball was heading so they let us win a little under Dan to feel good because they knew what our destiny was heading towards. Powers that be are the football Gods
We had a chance to be a 10 win team under the old system. The Big Guys would buy most of the top talent but we could find some diamonds and develop kids that were top talent level but needed more time. Now- even that has been taken from us.Quote:

The price will just continue to go up and we cant keep up with college football inflation

They want ALL the advantages. A new playoff format was created and nobody likes it because it actually worked by its design. Less than Blue Blood level Boise and ASU got top seeds and the best matchup is now #1 Oregon vs #8 Ohio State. So what will happen is #8 OSU will win and everybody will say: The 8 Seed won so it works to have more playoff teams. But is Ohio State really an 8 seed? No way. They are a Top 4 team. So, again everything needs RE-Fixing from NIL to portal to playoff format. What a freaking mess. And it started because of the stupid salaries for football coaches 20 years ago. So yeah! We should have seen this coming!
No one will fix this garbage, this will continue until it collapses upon itself.Quote:

Will be their Superbowl to start the season as we help $ave their program. Who set this up, a 2 for 1 deal? We should know better!Quote:

Heck, I went to Hail State roster early in the past incompetent season and never learned most of their names. Sad, miss the days of following young players from their Freshman year and watching them develop. I even remember going to the 4 or so freshman games as a young boy and hearing my late SuperDawg Dad say, "I can't wait to see that player in a year or two. He's really gonna be good."Quote:

Now that the expanded playoffs are here, stop playing bowls. What sport has non-playoff teams play games in the postseason?
I agree with this. Teams are playing bowl games missing 20-25 players who have opted out or are in the portalQuote:

This is just the beginning, college football has become spoiled and rotten.
I enjoy watching them and seeing the new players step up. It's like an extended spring training and with so much talk about how the game is becoming less clean, the extra practices help. And it is at least something not completely destroyed and a part of college football. Why does this have to be a carbon copy pro league?
I wonder how long it will be before a few opt out of playoff games? You know rock bottom has arrived when this happens.
We know it is a glorified exhibition game now. So. It should not count for or against your record.Quote:

What’s wrong with hallmark movies? :confused:
Give me the old days when a player says he's sitting the second half and hears "well this is your lucky day kid, you can have the whole game off so go ahead and bring me your uni"
To me, if I'm paying a player money in NIL I expect them to participate in every game with the exception of injury, death in the family, illness, or coach's decision.
That includes bowl games.
And I suspect that teams are going to start writing that into their NIL agreements.
A bowl game is no more meaningless than then other 12 games a team plays.
Coaches should start recruiting character. NIL contracts should include incentives/disincentives for bowl games, etc...
The kid took advantage of the system and he's the bad guy? The system is a joke. The people running it have and continue to be a joke. The NCAA is a toothless tiger. They will literally let people play college football for a decade now if someone threatens to get a lawyer involved. The NCAA needs to fold and be disbanded. And all the money they make (THAT THEY STILL REFUSE TO SHARE WITH THE ATHLETES) should be sent straight to charity. Disgusting organization profiting off the work of kids.
This sounds like us historically. Ole Miss also.Quote:
