I don't mind a 24-team playoff. Those bitching about the irrelevance of the last dozen or so teams making the playoff also bitch about the irrelevance of the bowl games those same teams would have otherwise played in. I'm guessing the playoffs get better ratings. Maybe its just me enjoying the...

My fake ID was Canadian. Manitoba. My girlfriend's posse had a hookup. Good times. I found out after the fact my daughter got caught with one in a bar and her college friends had to beg the bouncer not to call the cops. It helps to be pretty. Drake? IDGAF. He'll probably need to do some...

This is great. He played QB and has been an OC and/or QB coach pretty much his whole career. An investment in Lindsey and younger QB room? It looks like it. It seemed to me that the QB coach role has been a question mark at best for a while now.

El Paso has a great football venue IMO. No reason to spend more than a couple days there, one for football and one for margaritas/TexMex, but it’s worth a trip.

True. Even if you assume Perich would bounce back for a nice season next year and there were no locker room issues (no idea if that's true), it's impossible for us to know how much the team might still benefit from not paying a safety seven figures and spreading those funds to more important...

Recency bias makes it hard for me to believe NDSU played in the Fargo Dome for over a decade as a D2 team.

It's a typical state college IMO. Indistinguishable from hundreds of others across the country where the ambience is more tire plant than architecture. It doesn't matter, though. The undergrad experience is about relationships.

Agreed. I believe NDSU has slightly below average attendance for a Mountain West team but still decent. Northern Illinois would be at the rock bottom.

The MAC must be screwing things up badly to make the beleaguered MWC look like an improvement to NIU over playing teams in its region.

The crypto bros might be sweating every dime spent after this weekend.

FWIW, I think that ranking is for the graduate education school category (e.g., masters in education). Still a higher rating than what I would have guessed.

Did this m'fer even post a thank you note to the fans? Or did I just miss it?

My point being, teams like the Gophs might be able to strip off some highly rated HS players if losing their expected early playing time to portal players becomes a trend.

Who knows, at some point, we might find some extremely highly rated players picking the good development programs out of HS to get playing time if the dollars are at least somewhat within range. For example, do you think Oregon shared with their 5-star incoming HS safety before he signed that...

Yeah. Feels like a plan to be a feeder program. It's a risk. Maybe a good risk and only real option as the Gophs won't compete head to head with the big $$ programs. One way to success is having another 2019 or better season to develop a reputation and build from that. However, if Clemson can't...
