Other Sports: NCAA Thread v12

Is Texas back?

 

[Chinatown88]

Michigan State is another non-big power P5 program throwing around a lot of NIL money in recruiting this cycle.

I’m not complaining as it’s good for these schools as it hopefully helps spread talent around more. But more importantly the kids all over the country to finally cash out on these opportunities. But watching this from a distance it seems like it’s not really sustainable.

If Texas can’t get something to stick with Ewers & Manning….

Weird, Manning may find himself in the same spot Ewers was in, in Columbus.

Ewers would be eligible for the 2024 draft year (three years removed from high school). So in theory if he’s the goods that would just overlap Manning’s freshmen year.

Miami just payed 4* QB recruit Jaden Rashada $9.5M in NIL money to commit there.

That's a lot of cash to blow just to ruin a guy

It's the Wild Wild West out there.

Apparently the number being thrown around now is $5M over three years from Miami which is still crazy.

It should be interesting to see if there’s an adjustment going forward once these deals play out & teams don’t get the preferred return on these investments.

Wait, WHAT?!?!

I've been skeptical of the MEGAFOOTBALLCONFERENCE thing, but maybe it's possible after all. I tend to think those big name schools won't want to finish last...

More likely than not that its going to happen imo

That would be epic. Coast to coast for Rutgers to rise to absolute dominance just like in my NCAA13 Dynasty on PS3!

It’s been rumored for a while now since Oklahoma & Texas left for the SEC but those type of rumors are always out there.

The Big Ten’s current tv contract is set to expire soon so it makes sense they want to tap into the LA market. That was their last strategy for when Rutgers (NYC/NNJ) & Maryland (DC/Baltimore) joined. Access to those big tv markets to go along with Philadelphia, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Columbus, Indianapolis, etc.

Been reading some stuff that FOX Sports is def pushing for it. They are paying huge money to the Big Ten for football contract, plus own like 60% of the Big Ten Network as well. Makes sense they would want to improve LA market.

We're going to get nothing fun out of this, right? PAC 12 and BIG 12 combine, then the GIANT 12, B10, and SEC winners go to the playoffs with one at large spot?

Yeah it’s inevitable. I think there is/was so many pre-signs that we’re headed for like a pro like setup in college football (playoff, schedule, conferences, etc.).

The playoffs are a joke regardless. The only way a playoff system works is if every conference champ (like every single conference) is in then you fill in the at large bids to make an number for tourney purposes. Otherwise honestly I'd rather see the BCS come back because the playoffs is just the same thing but instead of people being mad that a 1-loss LSU team gets in over an undefeated Utah or something is you just wind up with a bunch of teams that can lose multiple games and have a shot at the playoffs while screwing even more 1-loss or undefeated teams.
