You're probably right. He heads to the MAC and he could be a workhorse.

I'm a little bummed about Ijeboi. He runs hard between the tackles and with Taylor gave us a solid 1-2 punch (would have been better with more effective blocking up front). That said, Ijeboi probably wants to be the workhorse starting next year and if Taylor returns, that's not going to happen...

What?!? You don't trust the little bird that provides him with scoops?

Found this meme that kind of sums up the Notre Dame/CFP kerfuffle.

Beef or no beef, ND has been the beneficiary of a lot and it's simply poor sportsmanship at play here. There's really no excuse for this. It's almost like Scott Frost contending that his 13-0 UCF squad should have been declared national champs.

He is a joy to watch when healthy.

Why wouldn't Taylor be back? He obviously could declare for the draft and he may fear he'll be too much of a workhorse if he stays. And he may want to play for a team with a functioning OL. But he has to prove he can stay healthy.

I fear that is going to be the model for a lot of lesser-recruited high school players. Go to a sold FCS program, redshirt (especially linemen) and build yourself up, see the field for a couple of years, impress FBS schools, transfer up.

There was an article that contended that Notre Dame's stomping out (and KSU and Iowa State as well though more politely) that the bowls just don't matter that much anymore and teams opting out could lead to a death spiral. That might be going overboard. As long as ESPN is selling ads and...

There is SEC bias, but I don't see how Notre Dame can ever complain seeing they've benefitted from pro-Fighting Irish bias over the years. Bottom line: Someone is always going to be left out and the bigger they make the field there's going to be more teams on the margins. If James Madison and...

Note on Kollack. I mentioned Cal as a possibility if their current true freshman QB moved on, but he is staying put (at least for another year) and that might influence Kollock's decision (of which I know nothing about).

We saw it with Ward last year and this year with Mendoza and Beck (to some extent). Highly-ranked HS QBs go to a mid-level school (again, not Beck per se) get experience and transfer up to a helmet school as a sort of finishing school to prep for the pros. Kind of like baseball to an extent...

I agree it should be 8, but they should just skip over 12 to get rid of the bye and go to 16 if they want to open the field a bit. The byes are simply a bad idea.

But then he got divorced and had to make some edits.

And picking up on that theme, Kollock will be a redshirt freshman at his next stop. It's made me think about how important recruiting QBs will be. Obviously, you need a good one but guys who are brought in as freshman probably gauge what's ahead of them and transfer sooner rather than later...

All I can say is that Cal won seven games this year with a true freshman at QB. My point was if that kid moves on, Cal is a somewhat logical landing spot for Kollock (who had a Cal offer out of high school).

If the Cal QB enters the portal Kollock might be on the Bears' list of possible replacements. California offered Kollock out of high school. It will be interesting to see where he ends up playing. Had some good offers during his initial recruiting.

Some members of the local media just use "storming the court/field" as fodder to gripe. I don't listen to KFAN (or much talk radio) much anymore, but I imagine Barreiro will talk about this for about 15 minutes. Let the kids be kids. I'm in my 70s and never stormed a court/field (even when my...

He texted Diego Pavia to figure things out.
