Final thought, I guess we'll have to agree to disagree that the seedings had no impact. I think the Year 1 seedings led to the number of large blowouts in the first two rounds. The result is that the way Nielsen measures things is the lack of sustained viewership during games does impact the...

There may have been a drop-off in the CFP Semifinal ratings, but that was largely driven by a flawed seeding process that was driven by a lot of politics in Year 1. However, in year 2 they will be addressing that seeding issue, resulting in much better match-ups in round 2 and likely fewer...

I think you're pretty close. Right now we sit at 209.20 pts in the 247 rankings. Using last year's rankings as a measuring stick. If we didn't add another point, that 209.20 would have put us in 38th place in last year's rankings.

Peter Burns and guys like Paul Finebaum have largely become jokes as mouthpieces for the SEC and their contract with ESPN. The reason there is so much talking going on with the SEC is that they are desperately trying to generate clicks and drive volume on their platforms. Right now ESPN/ABC is...

Weaver is one of those kids that MN going to have to develop/build. He's got the height and I'm assuming he has some speed, but now they're going to need to take the next 2 yrs putting 25-30 lbs of quality muscle on him. Hopefully he then he maintains that speed and he's obviously a smart kid as...

It should be interesting in the next few hours to see if they can get a commit from one of the two TX RBs (Estrada & Rowden). I think they would prefer Estrada, but I'm sure they want to come out of the weekend with at least one of the two. Then, I'm sure Harbaugh & Fleck will be working the...

Even before stepping on a college campus to play football this kid has figured out what many people never figure out their entire life. No matter what he achieves on the football field I'm sure this kid has a bright future.

Another one of those articles that means nothing this time of year. Last year most had us at an over /under of 5.5 wins, and we ended up at 8. If our kicker didn't give it away at UNC with two terrible kicks, it should have easily been 9 wins.

Any ranking that would rate that Wisky motion W as high as 8th completely invalidates the entire ranking list itself.

Sori-Marin appears to be doing some excellent recruiting at the LB spot this year with two solid recruits in Dunn & Luciano. If they were to land Petersohn (who I believe is projected at LB), that would have to be one of the best LB classes in a long time.

Well, if history is any indicator, we should have a number of announcements tomorrow afternoon with the wrapping up of Week 1 of Summer Splash. It sounds like there isn't much of a chance that we'll see a commitment from Voss or Petersohn with their other official visits scheduled. However, who...

It's pretty hard to believe what the adjustment to one player's rating can do for the team's overall ranking for this class. Minn jumped from 27 to 23 (leapfrogging Iowa in the process) and jumped almost an entire point in Avg Player points value...

I don't know if this was discussed back in December when he apparently was hired, but I guess they released the financial details today. It always amazes me when a coach who uterly failed in his last role as HC in a power conference gets another chance. Maybe it's not the fact that he got...

Based on the On3 recruiting site, PJ pulled a bit of an upset. Nice get for the Defense, but based on this I don't expect Mich to give up either.

I actually can't wait to see the Buffs play this year as we will finally see if Deion can actually coach. Deion was blessed by the fact that his uber-talented son Shedeur was at his side to help him ascend in the college coaching ranks. In Deions first season of 2020 (Covid year) his Jackson...

The assessments by writers like Fornelli are almost useless at this point in the year because if you read it, you can tell he didn't even spend 30 seconds looking at the Minn roster. He indicates the Drake is the only scholarship QB on the roster. However, as we all know if you took any time at...

Yeah, it's amazing how NIL is a lot like recruiting, if you're not out meeting with and making offers to in-state talent like Wiggins and Groves it kind of makes it hard to land them. I suspect it's similar with the NIL process in that if you are unwilling to invest in the process and sell the...

Yeah, it's a bit interesting in terms of how it went down and you don't know what influence the parents have as well. However, TT might have a whale or two in their fanbase who are willing to write some checks. They had their collective pay a softball transfer from Stanford $1.05M for a...

Well, in the scheme of today's college basketball world, all this really means is that they are renting him for a year. Then the recruiting process starts all over again for year two. Just ask the coach at Baylor.

I'm curious what type of money you think TT will throw at him? First, personally I'm high on the kid and think he has the "potential" to be a really good player. However, now to the facts of how he might be viewed from a national recruiting perspective. This is a kid who played AAU and was on...
