I believe what some are envisioning is transfer players might enroll for spring semester. As far as I know there is no rule against any student utilizing dual enrollment, ie enrollment at two universities simultaneously. So, hypothetically sometime in late fall, December might a student...

Here’s the video that was made public. Hard to say who destroyed the video of the public space where the brawl occurred but….only Deion has motive on both sides. Ironically if his employee assaulted a student he’d (or his school) likely be on the hook for any damages. Aren’t there medical...

Given (my understanding) this all stems from an antitrust lawsuit concerning transfer restrictions affecting a player’s ability to earn NIL how then can portal windows be enforced? Players can transfer within the season, enroll for spring semester? I’m just trying to find the logic behind this...

An unfortunate side note: Buffs/Bison same day and kickoff as UNC game. Alabama at Wisconsin. That’s going to be…interesting.

Shadeur?

The hype surrounding Ohio State as a title contender this season is the wildest I can remember. We’ll see. OSU is always pretty stacked. Sometimes teams are less than the sum of their parts. Will Howard? Looking at KSU (stats only) looks like he was a game manager for their running attack...

OK Boomer/Zoomer shots fired. Here’s coach staying humble, keeping the media accountable for doubting his greatness after the big win over TCU. Maybe unknown to Coach Prime TCU had lost 8 starters to the NFL draft including their heart and soul QB. TCU would struggle to win 5 games in 2023.

I always enjoyed this (and maybe only this) yearly feature from Athlon but this edition was the weakest, most vanilla collection of talking points I’ve ever seen, so much so that it sounds like a writer writing things he thinks a coach might say. Zero insight and would a coach really believe eg...

I don’t mean this disrespectfully in any way but I’m genuinely interested how selling off future revenue is going to solve funding problems. Illustrate how this would work over the next 10-15 years. If CFB wants a unified contract they can certainly organize, arrange that on their own without...

Yes. The analogy while not perfect is someone funding their lifestyle using credit cards. The hangover eventually shows up, and you’ve ultimately solved nothing, created new mouths to feed, and hurt future revenue. I’d like to see any new or updated governance entity ban this type of...

Any AD or president even considering this should be fired on the spot. .

I was wrong in my earlier post, per 247 there were 42 transfers in for the 2024 cycle, not 32. In 2023 53 transfers in. According to the ratings guys their overall classes were 22 and 30 which should translate to wins but not sure how many of the original 53 are still there. Quick review of...

If I’m understanding your question right then yes, there is a revenue “salary cap” at some percent (starts at 22%) of the 69 power conference school average revenues which was about 100M. That can include the existing cost of living payments. The 22% is in addition to scholarship costs...

Colorado was 130th in total defense, 82nd in total offense last year. He’s churned his roster again this year (40 players left, 32 arriving) but remains to be seen if they’ll be any better. Only available direction is up at least on defense. A healthy Travis Hunter should help the...

1. Iowa 2. Wisconsin 3. Michigan 4. Rutgers 5. Not sure what to make of USC. They always have a plethora of talent but the distractions of LA, NIL maybe make them less than the sum of their parts.

Agree, and most of that was before they even played a game. CU fanbase was a little bit of a sleeping giant. CU fans have adopted an us against the world attitude as sentiment around Sanders and family has undergone a sea change over the last 6 months with the horrible product on the field...

“Estimated advertisement equivalency” of $240M in less than one year based on media mentions seems like one of those squishy marketing concepts. How much estimated advertisement equivalency did Derek Chauvin earn in 2020. No doubt ticket sales and merch revenue is elevated and maybe donations...

This doesn’t really settle anything, but uncorks a lot of new questions. Collusion to limit compensation is still at the top of the list. Instead of scholarships and cost of attendance insert capped and potentially fixed revenue payments. Some hope congress will now say, hey, sure they threw...

He was what, 15 at the time. Alleged victim was an employee of Deion’s school. Allegations of destroyed surveillance tapes. Who knows what charges were made, inducements, agreements; sealed records. Not much info out there. Read a few stories that said he, Shilo, didn’t show for the civil...

Already reading diametrically opposed opinions on distributions and eg Title IX or non-rev players. Some are already allowing themselves to think about the money. The math is pretty startling though. If a school with say, 600 athletes divides a hypothetical $20M equally that’s $33K each/yr...
