The new staff are more competent, but they aren't exactly QB gurus.

I don't think they are really going to be that good for him. They'll probably go full Urban with JT Barrett with him and run him into the ground. JT Barrett had way better vision as a runner though. The great majority of Underwood's "great running" in 2025 was on broken plays against lesser defenses. Against Oklahoma and Ohio State he had 9 runs for 0 yards. 30% of his rushing total came in 1 game against Central Michigan. He's got athleticism but he's not even close to a Scam Newton or Vince Young or even JT Barrett when it comes to actually being a runner.
So, fuck him?

College Football Playoffs Expansion Discussion

i also don't like extending it much beyond even 10 or 12 because it makes the regular season less meaningful.

but... there's no way the ratings can drop. mathematically it would not go in that direction. more teams = more games = more money. it does somehow "devalue" the regular season, but it doesn't seem to get in the way with mlb, nba, nfl, nhl.

and with nil there's not going to be angst about letting college athletes endure more wear and tear.

so, as long as you don't drop more than something like 3 games in the regular season, and your roster isn't totally depleted, you're going to be in and able to make a run and earn more $$$.

and the more you let in the more it promotes the narrative of "make a run".

This current first round exposure of the non elite teams is no bueno for ratings in the long run. Now they will be able to get idiots like Herbie spewing 'Cinderella!!!" when one mediocre team beats 2-3 mediocre teams before they face a big boy.

Reflexivity of a sort.

Asinine Conspiracies

What does BP think of Mandela Effects? I find those interesting.. things that just seem undeniable from my childhood: fruit of the loom having a cornucopia, Chik-fil-A, and "take my strong hand" being some of the all time hits. Is my generation collectively misremembering or what is this? Chinese knock off shirts sold at Kmart?

Neal Shipley (PGA Golf Pro)

Only $36k so far this year, playing golf. We should all be so miserable
In golf though, that’s indicative of his play and placement. It’s also very minimal winnings with his costs. I’m sure he has sponsors but that can dry up if he doesn’t start playing more weekends and getting higher on the board.

Earnings also play into getting into the no cut tournaments. This is why you see Koepka playing so much, to raise his status.

The Ohio State Baseball (Official Thread)

Disgusting ending to an otherwise very improved season.

The offense was a hack fest but the home plate ump wasn't doing any favors. scUM pitcher got constant questionable strike calls whole our pitcher constantly got squeezed into walks. A definite case of a conference making the call to do all they can to try to push another team into the tournament

'27 OH CG Kameron Mercer (Cincinnati Verbal)

I kinda had a hunch. Will see if it sticks but the new staff went all in here and made him their priority target.
Good call on your hunch. Hes a massive get, even bigger than Abaev last year. And id dare say by a lot, because hes a local kid.

I hoop with a guy who coached Kam when he was younger in AAU. He really cares about him, says he is a great person, is respectful and works hard. Said he didn't then, and maybe still doesn't yet have, a consistent jumper. Having watched some of his games this season, I would agree with that assessment. Kam didn't play very well in the state title game (but he was probably drawing the opposing team's best defenders). We will see if he lives up to his lofty ranking in college and beyond. And if he does play well right away, it's not like the school where you start out is the school you stay with these days anyway.
i saw Kam play several times this season(notably the Lakota west game) and i came away many times thinking, with how highly rated he is, he plays too timid. He should’ve been in attack mode all season. His Size and athleticism alone should’ve gotten him 23-25pts/gm and 5rebs. Tyson from Lakota West was a better player imo. Would love to see them both stay home
