Other Sports: NCAA Thread v12

Nevermind, it's doomed.

The fact it’s a three year deal with his age honestly seems like a pretty easy built in talking point for opposing schools to use in recruiting against them.

It does kind of feel like he’s kind of using them for reasons I stated above. I don’t think the administrative people were crazy about him either. I think boosters & such were more so the push behind him.

They probably wanted the full week off before Ohio State.

They’ll need it after losing to Iowa

Lol. No one is losing to Iowa

UNC says it’s a five year deal. All the media people say three which I find interesting.

the UNC J-e-t-s...

I laughed

Penn State always does.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Penn State is 5-2 against Iowa under Franklin & has the most recent win (2023 31-0).

Their struggles against Iowa mostly occurred under Paterno in the 2000-2010 period where Iowa went 8-1 against them during that time frame.

O’Brien went 2-0 against them.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Florida got a brutal schedule again next year. Can the league offices cut them a little break?

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Honestly surprised they might be taking a flyer on him.

Am I happy with Dan Mullen as UNLVs new coach?

The buyout drops to 1 mill after June 1st. Def seems like he’ll try to jump to the NFL at first chance and get his son the job.

He recruited like he was at a mid major program when he was in the SEC so yeah he should be a good fit there.

So Brian Kelly is going to match up to $1m in NIL donations... To get around whatever level of "NCAA rules" exist for coaches or schools directly funding it he's actually 'donating' the $1m to the LSU Tiger Athletic Fund 'nonprofit' to be used 'however they see fit.'

Since LSU coaches and the university get money from taxpayers that means Louisiana taxes are going to pay for NILs lol.

Why is the Penn St game on TNT? First world problem of having to redownload that terrible app.

Edit. ESPN sub licensed two games out, Arghhh

Sounds like a couple B1G teams are trying to get Ewers to stay another year and pay him a lot of money. My guess would be Oregon and OSU

 

[CutOnDime97]

These 2 are so ridiculous. Excited to see them in the NFL. Hopefully a team lets Hunter be the NFL's Ohtani

Ewers stinks. I wouldn't be surprised if it's his team floating the rumors out there.

 

[flyershockey]

Hugh would have been better off letting Arnold reunite with Lebby and then taking Michael Van Buren from MS State. Hugh's offense is not going to work without a QB who can at least run a little off script. Arnold hasn't done anything to warrant hanging his job on the line with him.

I'm glad they're probably going to split the two major awards given how far they've separated themselves from the field.

I did enjoy everyone rediscovering that a G5 player hadn't won the Maxwell since Ty Detmer because they gave both trophies to Geno Toretta for existing on an impossibly talented Miami team instead of Marshall Faulk turning water into 6 yards per carry.

What's the consensus on this?

 

[FLYguy3911]

What's the consensus on this?

Idk, maybe you should watch the corners like you promised.

 

[CutOnDime97]

Hunter is a heavy favorite in the betting markets. -2000 or more

fight me

 

[FLYguy3911]

fight me

I'd make you look like Hathaway.

 

[Flybynite]

That's the huskiest boy on a fake punt running the ball I've seen in a long time lol
