Non-Playoff Bowl Games Discussion Thread

Always makes me think of the story they told about Dick McPherson asking ahis young OC Jim Tressel if they had another play in the playbook. He said "we do and when they stop this one, I'll call it."

:lol:
That's me playing NCAA Football back in the day. 95% of my playcalls were the counter. The other 5% was PA pass.

Look Who's Transferring Now (The Portal)

I fully agree, and love your breakdown. I posted this to just show that a number of kids are getting bad advice and leaving so many places prematurely. I hate hearing stories, that a kid who could stay at school X, might have been a starter the next year, but now can't find a place and is now playing in D2 or D3. Because I think teams like Iowa St who lose most of their team are a smaller percentage, and many teams are just looking to add a few players. So 3300+ players(and counting) entering the Portal, but there won't be close to the same amount of openings with the freshman early enrolles set to hit campuses in a week or 2

I understand but that "article" or whatever you call social media vomit, is misleading and I'm tired of the noise personally.

less than 5% are going to transfer, nowhere near all of that sub 5% is doing it because they want to, some are being forced out and yes, some will end up out of D1 because of it but that's a different story (and maybe one people should be talking about).

Too many teams in D1 trying to share the same pie. Too easy for coaches to move and not players. No regulatory body. No collective agreement to protect players, no uniformity to talent acquisition.

Just a few off the top of my head that are real, structural issues. This inane bullshit about the portal is juts noise, it isn't signal.
