    Trev to Texas A&M?

    Trev has been a great AD and the only reason he didn't fire Frost sooner was the old guard protecting their legacy QB. The athletic department from top to bottom was on an upward trajectory and that included the hiring of Matt Rhule. I would like to see if they can't at least try to keep him...

    Sorry, I like her. No tattoos, no gigantic eyelashes. No, I don't think she's gorgeous, but she's athletic and nice enough looking. And most importantly she lets her abilities on the court do the talking for her. No obnoxious comments on or off the court. A good role model for young women...

    Weird (mostly alt energy OT)

    Florida is like many places that have very good charter schools and some lower performing regular public schools. DeSantis IS making a big difference by forcing those public schools to teach actually useful material instead of woke garbage. In my state of Colorado we transferred my son from a...

    SIAP: Steve Pederson wanted Mike Sherman?

    What f'd the program over for 25 years was a simmering background war between 'traditionalists' and those wanting to change course. I have never thought Pederson was wrong for firing Solich. The program was in decline and that 9-3 last season record was a mirage. The schedule that season was...

    Bill Calahan--makes history.

    Definitely I think he prefers the lower key environment of being a position coach in the NFL. People forget Suh was a Callahan recruit as were most of the dudes of the early Pelini years. When they were gone Pelini didn't look very good.

    Bill Calahan--makes history.

    As far as recruiting goes, it isn't close. Callahan was vastly better. Callahan was also a pretty good offensive coach despite his QB decision in 2007. Pelini and Solich were better at player development and Solich was better managing the program as a whole (although he inherited it intact...

    Bill Calahan--makes history.

    Frost was the golden child of the program and the Osborne/Solich/Pelini faction. He WAS considered a top coaching prospect but he would have been fired two years earlier anywhere else.

    Bill Calahan--makes history.

    There's just been a lot of necessary humbling of people that insisted on their way and their guys for so long, and that goes all the way up to Osborne. He was insistent on Frost as the right guy, only to have him be the worst coach in NU history. Alberts has done a good job as AD focusing on...

    Bill Calahan--makes history.

    With a change at DC he might well have gotten us to top 10 status. The program was so internally divided that it was likely not going to be successful no matter what, for a long time. The firing of Frost and start of the Rhule era seems to be the first time the entire program is all aligned...

    Raiola will need to sit before he plays

    The best QBs we have on the roster are true freshman. That's a little unsettling but I really don't see either redshirting at this point. Had we a veteran transfer Kaelin could have ben RS. But now we need both to be ready early.

    Next Alabama Coach

    I believe Kirby Smart may be ready to leave Georgia. The fallout from the car crash last year is starting to really pick up steam. Alabama would be a lateral move though and he may be tiring of the transfer portal and NIL as much as Saban. Supposedly the Falcons are interested and that...

    Saban retired

    Greatest coach of all time. He built the greatest program in history and the greatest coaching tree. Sad to see him go as his reasons for leaving (NIL and the transfer portal) are ruining college football as a whole. The transfer portal can at least be brought back to a level of sanity.

    Watching the college playoff games

    Population doesn't equate with success. Build a good program that develops talent and the talent will come.

    The transfer portal shouldn't be open until after bowl season

    How about opening and closing it during the season? Say starting in October and ending in Nov? If a player wants to leave they should make it known early and immediately de-roster that player for the rest of the season.

    Bowl game roster rule idea

    The bowl games are money-making ventures and if you invite a team that then loses the majority of its prior starting roster is it fair to the bowl game? Why not require schools to commit to a roster within one week of the final game of the regular season, and then if a team can't commit to at...

    Slowing down the transfer portal with these old rules that need to be reinstated by the ncaa.

    Right now the entire college sports apparatus is in danger of losing millions because of the current situation. That Orange Bowl serves as a warning of what is to come if the NCAA can't bring some sanity back. I question in what if any scenario a waiver is EVER necessary for a player. A...

    There has been one thing worse than the Bowl Games

    I would love to see an analysis of how companies that have gone woke with their advertising are doing compared with companies that are not. Advertising used to be about focusing on your target market. The Japanese automakers at least are smart enough to know that you sell trucks to white males...

    Bowl Games

    I agree. Just drop the conf title games. Did we need to see Iowa play Michigan? Do we need a potential rematch of Michigan and Ohio St the next week if we eliminate divisions?

    Florida State..WTF

    I agree. We need to restore sanity to transfers. Players need to go back to sitting out a season when they transfer and they must lose eligibility for a season after playing one game. Right now we're honestly asking coaches to do the impossible job of building a roster but living with the...

    Pop Tart Bowl = big hit

    How about the Reefer Bowl? Get one of the cannabis companies to sponsor it. Watching the university ADs squirm trying to decide whether to accept the bid would be hilarious.
