Re: How to End NIL?

The way NIL currently exists, collectives are private entities. They are not run or funded by schools. This means Title IX does not apply as private organizations don't fall under that umbrella. However, with the recent court rulings that are moving everything closer to schools paying athletes direc...

Re: I'm pround to not be a Nike school anymore

I'm not a fan of Kaepernick or his other issues as mentioned by ItSucksToBeACSURam, but this issue is about more than him, and the underlying problems behind this mess need to be addressed, not ignored. What do you think of the coaching hire(s) process at UW? Acceptable or are we "ignoring an ...

Re: NIL what does it take?

When Chip Kelly took the OC job at OSU, there were many people wondering why the "step down". Among many of the theories were that Kelly could see the writing on the wall with UCLA moving to the Big Ten. Multiple sources were stating that there are several Big Ten schools with NIL war ches...

Ridiculed? Ha, no. When your career gets ended because a teammate puts you in the hospital, not good.
His teammate beat him up because he had a bad punt?
No, it had nothing to do with football

OK, OK, I'll do it - you don't have to beg. I have 4 years of eligibility left on my 48-year-old carcass and would suffer through the college life again if that is what the people need.

Re: Toledo game thread

That's what happens when you have an entire team that doesn't care at all about the game you're playing. Yeah, because GA was playing for so much more. They didn't get robbed of a final 4 spot. UGA knew they weren't in. I bet the second FSU got snubbed, majority of their team checked out.

Maybe, but Polasek is a Grade A asshole. I wouldn't be surprised if there are several players happy to see him go.

Re: Bowl Game

How would that work? I saw where James Madison and Jackson St would likely go bowling because so many teams weren’t eligible. The winner of the Dec. 9 Army/Navy game is automatically eligible at 6-6. It makes sense that the winner would go to the December 27 Military Bowl. From what I've read, Amy ...

Re: Kolbey Taylor

Remember too that sometimes when these players enter the portal, they aren't necessarily choosing to leave, sometimes the coaches are making the choice for them. Not saying that is what is happening in this situation but I wouldn't be shocked, it wouldn't be the first time.

Re: Boise State firing Avalos today.

You can't really compare the Iowa situation. They have one of the best defenses in all of college football and are in the Big Ten west which is a poop show this year. Even with all that, they are extremely lucky to have as many wins as they do. Wyoming's offense is hands-down better than Iowa's.

Re: Why didn't Waylee play in first quarter?

In the past Bohl has played favorites at times with players, especially key players. For Waylee to get a quarter suspension, he probably did something legit to deserve it.

Not only has he kicked indoors before, but this won't even be Hoyland's first game at Allegiant Stadium. In 2020 he was 1/1 FG and 6/6 on PATs.

Re: We Deserve Better

Jim Leonhard would be a huge get for a program like Wyoming. Although, he could likely make more as a DC next year than Wyo would pay a HC. His defenses at Wisconsin were strong, although his offense would likely be similar (in scheme) to what Bohl runs now.
