What's the argument here? That Drake=Tanner?

ISUr is a bit of on oddball, both this season and as a playoff participant generally. Of it's 4 losses, one came to Oklahoma and the other a competitive game to NDSU. It beat three playoff teams, two of which were seeded in the playoffs ahead of it. It plays in the toughest conference in FCS...

So the theory would anti-trust. But anti-trust doesn't prohibit freedom of association, only unreasonable restraint of trade. If a group of conferences decides they are forming their own post season tournament, it doesn't prohibit the remaining conferences to do likewise. It would be...

But what's the theory? Is there a contractual obligation that certain conferences have to the others? I don't see it. The NCAA creates the classification but does not control the postseason. Is it an antitrust issue? If so, why doesn't the same apply to conference affiliation? Or...

Is "better" the subject? Like PJ's change your best? I don't get what sequence the SEC schools are part of though.

FIFY

What's the legal theory or cause of action? I think the reality is that there are truly only a few teams that are real contenders and the gap between those teams and other highly ranked teams is pretty wide no matter what conference they play in. I used to suggest in an FCS forum that you...

He has played TE/Receiver as well. Jackson had a QB that probably threw a better ball and Voss has a hand injury two years ago. Also played as a defensive back. I wouldn't be surprised if he stepped right in.

Even at lower levels it is getting harder to get a look. Both NDSU and SDSU are focusing their portal efforts on productive DII, NAIA and FCS players over P4 transfers who never played.

Alabama has positive net domestic migration. Minnesota, meanwhile, does not. But I digress....

Absolutely. Moore going off the deep end is sad, it's awful for his family and for the young woman he terrorized. But everything before that - I just generally assume that the coach is laying pipe to someone not his wife, the sign stealing stuff was overblown, etc. It's stuff that goes on...

Criminal statutes and institutional policy are two different things. Not illegal between consenting adults but may violate university policy.

I can't put my finger on it again but last night I saw a clip from the Northern Arizona (FCS - Big Sky Conference) HC. His program has tracked the outcomes for its departing players and a large majority ended up playing fewer snaps at the next institution. I assume most departing players...

Really? NIL is a little bit of a platypus but its much closer to being a gift than it is a paycheck. What did Troy get in return? Did the player or players lend their actual NIL to some product Troy was selling? Did they make appearances on behalf of a good or service that Troy markets to...

FB gets 70% (even though it accounts for 75% of dept revenue).

ESPN is still king in television sports and southerners still like CFB more than northerners.

I spent a week in Ames one night when I was in college. Its all a little blurry but I do recall it being a very good time.

It's sad watching Washington State social media and how the program and its fans have not yet come to grips with their new place in the FBS pecking order. Lots of unrealistic names being tossed out for coaching candidates at a school that was only recently discussing reducing full scholarships...

Not Minnesota, but Eck also coached just 20 miles across the border in Brookings as OC for South Dakota State. He is and was known for creative play calling. I would expect that he'll really open up his bag of tricks in the bowl game. He also gives a good interview - he's got a sense of humor...

That's very true but their attendance has been down for regular season games, too. They averaged about 16,000 a game at a stadium that seats just under 19,000 coming off a national championship. I think it was an improvement over 2024 by about a 1,000 people per game. SDSU has averaged more...
