I believe Marshall only played Guard at UCF.

Is Carroll graduating or coming back for one more year? I think he has one more year of eligibility (COVID year plus redshirt). (edit: Carroll is playing in the Hula Bowl which means he's done). Here's what PFF has for the returning tackles and guards that got snaps in 2024.

Okay doke. I was too lazy to look up the roster.

COVID year. Guys that were freshman in 2020 are the last class that could choose to play for another season. Edit: this was wrong ^^^^^^ Walley started 2021.

I was thinking the same.

There's going to be a flood of follow up lawsuits. If this stands for everyone, JC will basically become prep school in the football factory pipeline. If I'm a lightly recruited bubble D1 player (in my mind), I'm for sure going JC first instead of heading to a lower division as a freshman. D1...

Just another log on the fire. Junior college years don't count towards four-year eligibility in this lawsuit. What a mess.

Who's playing at the Tackle positions in the Mayo Bowl? I'm guessing Ersery skips with being a likely high draft pick and Daniels decided to sit on the bench at OSU behind some more highly rated prima donna's. Will Roy get the start? Maybe Carroll or Lewis slipping back to Tackle? Nkele up to...

The Spring Lake Park Hy-Vee's slot for regular Duke's (not light) was wiped out. Hellman's and Miracle Whip everywhere, but no Duke's. Walmart, none. Might have to try Cub. My wife and I have irreconcilable differences when it comes to mayo. She keeps flirting with Miracle Whip and slipping it...

I'm not so sure some of the top schools can remain the "top" anymore under the current crazy model. For example, I've heard rumblings that Alabama doesn't have the funding potential as some other SEC schools. The dynamics could change. You might see schools like SMU with rich boosters in a huge...

Lol. You do realize that D3 teams won over 40% of their games against D2 teams going to back to 2021, right? Almost half. D2 is glorified D3 because the scholarships are partial and most D2 are hyphenated state schools that give very little financial aid unlike most D3. The step for D2 to full...

The dude has highly recruited high 4-stars in front of him and coming up behind him. Is he OK with sitting on the bench at OSU?

@MaxyJR1 had a bunch of info on this in the portal thread. There's so much more public exposure now in D3/D2 then there used to be (streaming) that I bet this happens more often going forward.

That almost sounds like a JUCO situation in D2 and D3 where the young stars move up and some bench players in D1 move down. I don't know if the portal has already impacted D3, but we're seeing some new blood in the late rounds of the playoffs. The final fours were usually dominated by a very...

Great list. Wow. There's a guy or two on this forum that call D3 football glorified high school. Lol. The best teams always have multiple players that could play at higher levels.

This is the battle of the unprovens. I'd say overrated but that seems a bit harsh. Both had weak schedules.

Good question. Maybe the "no interest" factor is what's causing them to pursue the playoffs. The lower divisions of football are getting more and more airplay which is great marketing for the schools. I love the ESPN+ package with all lower division playoff games in one spot. I pulled up league...

Center was an issue and needs to improve dramatically.

In some respects, losing a decent offensive lineman hurts psychologically more than the other positions. O-linemen take more time to develop (more investment) and are a close team within a team. Like synchronized swimming, except on turf with 300+ lb guys trying to hurt each other......:unsure...

With their massive endowments (hedge funds with dorms), the Ivies typically give very substantial financial aid for the non-rich. I doubt that athletic scholarships would have much impact. We'll see, but I'm guessing the Ivy league is a big step up from the Pioneer League. I like this decision...
