Well since he and the wife are splitsville, that saves some money.

I don't like "the committee" because ultimately it will be biased.

A lot of college stadiums have bench seating. But high rollers aren't paying thousands to get tickets to a national championship game to sit on them. That's why I said, the powers that fund this stuff are going to demand more than what that old stadium has currently.

Very likely. I know of a college basketball player, and in addition to money and a new truck, he negotiated two plane tickets for he parents to every game.

Well, there's some question whether UCLA can break their lease. But in terms of the playoffs and national championship games. Look what ticket prices are for that game. The people with that kind of money aren't likely to want to sit on aluminum benches, and there aren't many suites in that...

I think unless you see some serious investment in the facility, you're going to see the powers that be push to remove the Rose Bowl from the playoffs/championship rotation.

I'd go for either if all the conference champs are in. I would hope that if they go to 24 that this is the case, essentially mimicking what FCS does. And anyone who watched the FCS playoffs this year, they were super fun.

Yeah, all the punters are 30 year old grizzled Aussie rules guys now.

This came up on Reddit, and I thought it was funny. Miami will be playing in the title game in their home stadium. But they will be the lower seed. Will they have to vacate their own home locker room in favor of the higher seed?

Correct. It's a drop in the bucket for him. Grit isn't looking at this through the eyes of a big ego billionaire. I gave the analogy earlier - dropping millions in NIL to support the team is like you or I buying a Gopher hoodie to wear to a game.

SMU was NOT an isolated incident. If you believe that, you're terribly naive. They got the death penalty because they were seemingly unable to keep it hidden and got caught with their hand in the cookie jar multiple times. The entire SWC, with the exception of Rice, were under some sort of...

A Too Tall Tom reference! I never expected to see this today!

I would have to think that there's some kind of breach of contract clause. Why wouldn't that be included?

Yeah, it's similar to how Marvin and Polaris allegedly gave the parents of good hockey players jobs in Warroad and Roseau, which would kind of be necessary - it's not like changing from Shakopee to Prior Lake - you have to move to the middle of nowhere. But the stories about the stuff in...

Not right now. Maybe not in MN. But the majority of states have no prohibition on high school NIL. And there have been a number of stories of shenanigans going on in the high school scene in S. California.

Pilots and CEOs of major corporations.

So does that mean I can technically go play high school football again?

He might be looking to make more money by staying.

I would have assumed that the penalty would be enforced on MSU's possession. Very strange. A great game though. I was going to feel bad for whichever team lost. Great seasons for both schools. But, you know, FBS shouldn't have a tournament...because...reasons.

Wild rumor on Twitter that Texas Tech is going to pay Cinci's QB $5 million next year.
