    Hadn't really thought of that.  So the refs can't/won't grab another ball and set it up and start the clock?  I ask because if that's the case it should be standard for anybody running the 2 minute drill to do an extended celebration after each first down.

    No idea, I was thinking he should hustle as well and not celebrate but saw the clock was stopped. He then jogged with it towards the ref rather than just tossing it. Seemed smart to me.

    I love Jwhitt, but what the fuck was that celebration after his last catch?  Clock is temporarily stopped, get on the ball and ready to go. The Texas sideline was yelling the same to him.  

    The ball was in his hands. It didn't hurt the team. If anything it gave the team time to get down field before the ball was set.

    Our favorite junior college on the Brazos is only getting outpaced by faux-religious grifters (Liberty), a couple of podunk ag schools (Oregon State and Utah State), and weirdly enough Georgia Tech, which seems to be doing a full realignment of what kind of college experience they want to provide.

    I'm curious if GT numbers are inflated by their online comp sci masters program.

  5. Thought this was interesting: https://www.on3.com/nil/news/ea-sports-college-football-2024-players-name-image-likeness-nil-deals-holdouts/

    Within the locker room of one of college football’s blue-blood programs, players have discussed what their individual name, image and likeness rights might be worth if they choose to opt into EA Sports College Football and whether the sport’s marquee players might consider holding out for more money.

    In May, On3’s Pete Nakos reported that the combined compensation for players who opt into the video game is expected to be roughly $5 million. That equates to roughly $500 per player.

    So, what is fair compensation for FBS players if there’s a flat rate?

    “That’s a tough one,” Oklahoma quarterback General Booty told On3 at the INFLCR NIL Summit. “We’ve actually been talking about that in the locker room. So, we’ve all talked about it because we want the game to come out, obviously. But we were saying if they come out and try to lowball and say we want to give everyone $200. Well, guys maybe like, like you mentioned Caleb Williams, may say no and then he’s not in the game. Then all the USC fans – who wants to buy the game and not play with him, you know?

    “And then he does it, then someone else does it and then it’s a domino effect and then it’s ruined. So, I think that’s going to be very critical to how they put it together. They are going to have to have one price, and I say like $600 to $800 would get everyone in. But some of the big guys, you know, that deserve it, that have been playing, starting for a couple of years, put up the numbers, they may have to sit down and negotiate with them because that’s going to ruin the game if they don’t have some of these star guys in there.”

    I don't think the people who buy NCAA football do so for the players, but for building dynasties at their shit directional school of choice. Bowling Green was my go to.

    I expect they fire him for cause for stealing  by taking all the money and underperforming, then hide behind  sovereign immunity.   Though honestly they don’t  pay their coaches enough to live in that shithole surrounded by the weirds.  

    I'm pretty much expecting this as well. They'll pin some recruiting misdeeds on him, fire for cause mid-season, and implement a post season ban for themselves even if they didn't qualify.

    I do have to mention- our 2015 and 16 classes yielded about 14-15 NFL players (depending on if Buechele ever makes it).

    Eh, Buechele is rostered as QB3 so that he can't be poached off the practice squad. I don't know if that's making it, but he's on an active roster and probably the next QB2 when Henne moves on or hangs em up. It may not be nursing, but being Mahomes' backup is a pretty good job.

    Saw someone on twitter say that the guy in that video also had Jimbo Fisher and Bill O'Brien as top 5 play-callers in all of college football - this season.

    It's the fucking daily wire. I'm sure Liberty's play caller was top 5 as well.

    Read in multiple places Ketch deserved some blame for players Texas was planning on target not ending up in the portal, yet. Ketch not keeping his mouth shut, as usual, allowed for pressure to be applied by the players' coaches.

    So you're saying he actually has sources? I imagine that if ketch knows, then the other teams do. Let's not pretend the kids aren't negotiating for more money to stay by leveraging Texas and other programs. I have no sources, but it's just common sense.
