I am shocked you don't trust the little bird!

Did he order you to drop down and give him 30 push-ups?

Darnold has been really good both last year with the Vikings and this year in Seattle. He has credited sitting behind Purdy in San Francisco for a year really helped him, but his recent resurgance really does put to question the rushing of young QBs into starting roles. It doesn't help that if...

Likely the key point in the current college football NIL/Portal/Etc. universe. Right now, there does not seem to be any kind of solid hierarchical structure that can fully address the complications that are arising. It's pretty much a horizontal system with--using economic terms--barriers to...

Hubert White is gone as well.

Agree. The college football equivalent of soap operas is upon us and I fully expect Swinney and Golding to settle this in the Octagon. All we'll need is The Real Housewives of Sanford Hall (is Sanford still standing?). Pro ball is organized and ownership outside of Green Bay is a composed of...

Mensah obviously wants to go to Miami (FL) because Florida has no state income tax.

Thanks for that. I thought it was an Ag school but wasn't sure.

Did a little bit of reserach and UC-Davis' 2025 starting QB Caden Pinnick (redshirt freshman last season) was a Jerry Rice Award finalist and transferred to Washington State earlier this month. Kollock will be competing with three fellow redshirt freshmen currently on UC-Davis roster...

I think it's going to take a few years for things to shake out before I think patterns or successful recruiting/portal strategies truly develop. Part of me thinks that a lot of high 3-star guys will be heading to lower-profile schools to build up their performance portfolios. Hard to say at...

Don't forget Harvey Mackay, visionary Mike Lynn, a handful of bamboozled M-Club members, and the Minneapolis Downtown Council.

They may not be NFL talent when all is said and done, but there is something to be said for having a ton of 4th and 5th year seniors who all know their roles and play within those roles.

When Fleck took over, the models that a significant portion of the fan base wanted him to emulate were Iowa and Wisconsin. He did that. I am a bit surprised that he didn't build on the 2019 model but it takes people and it has been difficult to replicate Bateman and Johnson and our QB play has...

Blame Sid! I would say not only incredibly dumb, but probably the dumbest move ever.

Maybe, maybe not. I think one difference is that Cignetti came to Indiana with a blank slate and zero expectations. Fleck inherited a somewhat messier situation. Cignetti appears to be more single-minded about football than Fleck and while coaches like Cignetti aren't exactly a new breed, I...

Professor Plum in the Library with the Wrench.

Good points that people keep driving past. I can remember when Kain Colter (maybe not the first guy, but along with O'Bannon) started to get the ball rolling on a lot of this and a good portion of the college football fan base were aghast. These guys get scholarships after all and they should...

You'd have to be a member of MENSA to figure out the Mensah situation.

Agree totally. I don't know where things will ultimately end up for HS QBs in the portal era, but I wonder if some will simply start out at the MAC or similar level, get earlier playing time, and then seek to move up if they perform well.

Good catch. I guess Grok is my AI. I meant public, but maybe that comment is below the belt.
