  1. I mean there is one pretty big difference...you actually OWN an NFL team and the heavy profits and value appreciation that come with it. It's a legit financial investment on top of the perks. In CFB you get what...access and the chance to cheer along like any Joe Schmo? You aren't recovering a dime of what you spend. So I'd actually disagree. If I were a hundred-billionaire I'd have much more interest in an NFL team
  2. She isn't stopping at QB either. Nate Marshall, supposedly Ty Haywood in play, the Ellisons are all-in on CFB
  3. WSJ has an article today about the Ellisons and Bryce Underwood recruitment. They had direct calls with him and his fam. And Tom Brady started calling him multiple times a week. Crazy world.
  4. All this seeding preference stuff has too many variables right now. Clemson beating SMU would throw a pretty big wrench into it. Boise would be the 3 seed and you'd have an SMU-Bama battle for the last spot. Do they punish SMU for a CCG loss? So the 6 seed could end up playing SMU then Boise, which is a better path than the 5 seed who would have Big 12 and Clemson. If UT loses, it's a battle with tOSU and ND for seeding. Again, does UT get punished for a CCG? And an Oregon loss would probably put them in the 5 spot.
  5. This. He could still end up good but there's no reason to have only 1 scholarship-level punter on the roster anymore.
  6. What's the story on lack of involvement with Ty Haywood? Denton Ryan has been a good pipeline for UT and sounds like he might be flipping to Michigan
  7. It's hard for me to get upset about decommits in the NIL era when it means that money can be redeployed elsewhere, often ending up pretty net neutral
  8. wtf happened to Justin Tucker this season?
  9. I'm very curious to see how the committee treats CCG losses when seeding. Like would Texas or PSU drop below ND who doesn't have to play one? Seems dumb if so, but I bet they would. If so, making the CCG and losing is 100% worse than not making it at all. Not only for seeding but also because you get one fewer week off to rest up and heal.
  10. Looks like negotiations are beginning lol
  11. Anyone have a list of Thorpe voters we can campaign on X? I know never tweet at croots but tweeting at sportswriters seems like fair game
  12. So the finalists we have are: Banks for Outland and Lombardi Barron for Thorpe and Nagurski How are we feeling about them?
  13. Idk who leaves but my needs list would be 3 DTs, 1 S, 1-2 WRs (depending on Golden decision), and 1 OT (the inexperience there is scary, and then imagine someone getting hurt) Neto at LG right? And Hutson gotta factor in somehow. Maybe he goes to LG or C
  14. Ironic given the thread title. Also awesome. Go Maalik
  15. Idk why but Matt Miller has always been a big Texas honk. Take his mock with a grain of salt although most mocks I see do have Banks, Cam and Bond going 1st.
  16. I assume they have some newfound budget space because of the Husan Longstreet flip to USC
  17. Why do you assume Golden is gone? Serious question. The only thing I've seen online is like 6th round projection which would often mean a return imo
  18. Clearly this hurts if you're ATM but their handwringing is a little silly tbh. No duh a Socal kid wants to stay home at USC and play for QB guru Lincoln Riley instead of shipping off for Texas and a bunch of coaches with zero NFL QB products.
  19. Wonder what a HS WR like Ffrench costs compared to a portal guy like Bond or Golden. At some point recruiting HS WRs may not be all that worth it
  20. Did Moore get hurt? Didn't notice him in the 2nd half, saw a lot of Bolden
  21. Who votes on the Thorpe award? Time to get the Jahdae campaign in full gear
  22. Who is Jahdae's main competition for the Thorpe? Travis Hunter? Hard to believe there's anyone playing better at DB
  23. Quinn wasn't available during player media availability today despite the big performance Saturday. Probably not a coincidence lol
  24. Real or not, QE is going to have a not-so-happy gf to deal with this week..
