    Sports Illustrated: NCAA Division I Football Council to Vote on Lifting Moratorium on Campus Activities

    I'm becoming cautiously more optimistic that football will happen this fall. Things are starting to move in that direction.

    West Virginia President says that the Mountaineers will play this fall

    The northern third or so of South Carolina is actually pretty nice. It's historically been pretty wealthy for the south and is kind of similar to western North Carolina, northern Georgia and eastern Tennessee. It's the central and southern portions of the state that are kind of a dump although...

    This would be a steal.. we need all the top tier linebackers we can get. Currently Penn State and Michigan are seen as favorites for him.

    A timeline of Zachary Evans' all-time crazy recruitment

    It doesn't necessarily seem like this kid is craving attention as much as he's just the type of overly independent and flaky person who can't make up their mind and commit to anything. For his sake I hope he ends up getting his shit together and things work out for him.

    It always makes me happy when we recruit someone with potential from the heart of the state like this

    I do. Recruiting is only have the battle. The other half is good coaching. Sure you need both great coaching and great recruiting to compete at the Alabama/LSU/Ohio State/Clemson level. But great coaching and alright recruiting beats good recruiting and crappy coaching any time. And that's why...

    Nevada's 2024 game at Minnesota will be ninth seven-figure payday in school history

    When you do that though you also have to play an away game at their stadium and thus lose the revenue you would make from otherwise hosting a home game. I'm not going to pretend to know the details around the math but I'm sure these contracts are designed in a way that makes the money work out.

    I'm pretty sympathetic to the idea that the Gophers miss on a couple instate players a year that usually end up at NDSU or similar. Although I think this is mostly OL and DL; I'm much more confident in school's ability to evaluate skilled positions like QB while talent and potential on the...

    Which players will take the biggest step in 2020?

    Definitely agree with Mo and CAB. On D I think Mariano Sori-Marin is really going to step up big at LB.

    Lorenzo Harrison medical retirement leaves Terps with possibly no RB experience

    At least Rutgers got Schiano back. It feels like their fans have more reason to be optimistic than MD at the moment.

    Is there any program in the Big Ten more of a dumpster fire right now than Maryland?

    Schedule set for 2024 and 2025

    I think they'll be better than this year but I'd still be shocked if they finish higher than 4th in the West. They have all the talent in the world but bad coaching and that isn't changing.

    Better 2020 road game to attend: Nebbie or Becky?

    I've never been to Lincoln but I love traveling to Madison for games and have been to the last three. Then again, I'm a guy in my 20s and the drunken obnoxiousness is part of the appeal. I'd probably feel slightly differently if I had a family with me.

    Minnesota is on the cusp of hiring Cincinnati defensive line coach Chad Wilt

    He's from Pennsylvania and played college ball in Indiana. And looking at his resume, his career has been centered in Virginia (Virginia, Liberty, Richmond), Maryland (Maryland, Army) and Ohio (Cincinnati) and Indiana (Ball State). He was recruiting coordinator at Ball State but nowhere else...

    FCS Championship game is going on KSTP Channel 5 Twin Cities at 11:00 AM

    I see the Dakotas as simply extensions of MN so I'm happy about this. I like seeing success in the region. I know this has been debated ad nauseam but I'm convinced there's 4-8 players in the upper midwest in any given recruiting class that end up at NDSU/SDSU that would be solid contributors...
