    1977 Letter from Bobby Bowden to his team prior to season starting

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

    Ole Miss contracts leaked, players upset

    I have an out-of-left-field question. We've touched on this a bit in the Perich tax angle thread (and I don't want to re-visit that), but are the players receiving remuneration beyond their scholarship considered public employees? If so, everyone should be able to see what they are being paid...

    QB Jackson Kollock will enter the portal.

    That's likely true. I don't know what the staff told him in the post-season meeting and perhaps his decision to enter the portal is based on that conversation. I'm not going to question players' decision-making processes, but I thought it was a premature jump on Kollock's part unless it was...

    1977 Letter from Bobby Bowden to his team prior to season starting

    Surprised he didn't include the phone number for the Pubic Defender's office.

    QB Jackson Kollock will enter the portal.

    Kollock should be second in that series. We don't have any idea how Kollock fared leading the scout team, but I have to believe his ceiling is higher than the Shikenjanski's, Merdinger's, and Wittke's.

    ESPN: FBS coaches vote unanimously to adjust sport's redshirt rule (play up to 9 games without losing redshirt)

    I've had similar thoughts. If you're a guy who has played three years (plus nine games) and the draftniks say you're a Day 3 guy, guys will come back because the NIL/revenue sharing bucks they are getting will likely be greater than rolling the dice on a late-round/UDFA contract. Curious which...

    I've had the same thought. There was a change in scheme and the CB play was down and that might have contributed to the perception that Perich was worse this year.

    Gopher portal visits and signings

    Marcus Sherels had a great career as a punt return man for the Vikings and he was more quick than fast. Great open-end speed is obviously valuable, but being able to cut and accelerate quickly out of the cut is what usually makes a great return man.

    I don't know enough about Oregon's defensive scheme to have any idea how they will use him. He's extremely athletic and if they have a safety who plays "center field" in football terms, that would probably be Perich's best position. It's funny how it works. Kill played his safeties extremely...

    I imagine Moore declares, but I wonder if he will be taking a pay cut to go pro having no idea what his NIL package looked like at Oregon. As Bob_Loblaw said, it's a really weak QB class and Moore and Mendoza likely go in the top ten (I think they probably would have been well below that the...

    The answer to the question everyone is asking: Oregon Income Tax Rates
  13. 50PoundHead

    The avg age of the Indiana Hoosiers team is 23 years old.... For perspective the Green Bay Packers avg age this season is 25 years old.

    I posted a variaton on the theme in a different thread, but I wouldn't be surprised if more college players who are looking at a Day 3 draft day (and some Dat 2 guys) stay through their eligibility because they are more likely to get a bigger paycheck staying in college than the bonus they would...

    Rumor from CBS that Dylan Riola may jump Nebraska

    He doesn't seem like a fit there given his strengths and the type of QBs they have used during the Lanning era.

    Official 2026 Roster Movement Thread - Who's In and Who's Out?

    I think that's the way it's going to be for most programs going forward, especially as informal tiers are established. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of 4-star players (especially QBs) enroll to play at programs perceived to be lower in the pecking order in order to hit the field right away...

    Official 2026 Roster Movement Thread - Who's In and Who's Out?

    Maybe it's just me, but I always laugh when I see a kid who grew up in the suburbs wearing a cowboy hat. Probably a lot of ropin' and brandin' out in the Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan School District #196.

    All Things Sports Taxes Thread

    According to AI (which gave me pictures of naked CPAs), Indiana state income tax is levied on a flat rate of 3% for taxes payable in 2025. However, counties also levy income taxes so Cignetti would be on the hook for those as well. Of course, It would depend on if he hasn't moved his tax...

    DL Xion Chapman commits to the Gophers

    As per the middle of the defensive front, if you can't land a sure difference maker the next best thing is to build up a solid rotation of guys. The DE corps is set and deep. Interior looks to be a bit of a work-in-progress, but there are enough guys to have what looks like a decent rotation.

    Chambliss Denied Sixth Year of Eligibility

    This just came across my feed and I didn't know whether to put this in the Playoff/Bowl thread or start a separate thread. My reaction is "Lawsuit coming in 3 . . . 2 . . . 1 . . ." Curious to know what others think and how NCAA will justify this given previous decision regarding Pavia. I...
