It’s a bigger problem for Penn State, Michigan and Kentucky than it is Ohio State.

Committed to Oregon today. Texas is taking it on the chin in-state the last few weeks.

A year or two ago, a guy named Emeka committing to U-Dub would have been a real disappointment.

Haha I almost did a double take and panicked when I saw Emeka show up with UW, then had to remind myself that our Emeka already played in the S&G in the spring game

Stanford have the most I assume?

I would guess the four Cali PAC schools are one through four in some order.

Can’t raise a single issue with a kid choosing Stanford.

Best of luck to him.

Meh

Yeah, I thought so too; however, the TV network(s) might dictate the "prime time" night games and (so far) Auburn is the only home night game, etc.

I saw a lot of their conference kickoff times are TBA. My guess will be Michigan is the "whiteout" game

As for how the battle is going, it hasn’t really gotten off the ground, Titans head coach Mike Vrabel recently said. Neither have attempted a field goal in the pros.

“That’s where the battle is at now. There’s not really much of a battle. There’s no rush,” head coach Mike Vrabel said, via Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com. “We have to put them in situations and evaluate them a lot more in training camp and in preseason. But, they’re both working hard and we’re excited to see where that competition leads and then we’ll have to make a decision at that point in time if that’s what’s best for the team and one of those guys moving forward. Everything that we’ve seen thus far, those guys are continuing to improve and work with the timing and the operation with [long snapper] Morgan [Cox] and with [holder] Brett [Kern].”

A&M got dad a job, so I’m just going to work under the assumption that’s where he ends up and be pleasantly surprised if not.

Feels like a situation where Ohio State might just be leverage to encourage the southern suitors to up their game.

I am VERY seriously thinking about Ohio State, they’re a perfect fit for me and where I belong. What do you think about that, Texas A&M?

I mean, even that Ohio recruits who are 1000% Buckeyes don’t post stuff like that on social media typically.

-Solid player. I think Hero coming out of nowhere ended this one.

Concur on both points, solid pickup for Wisconsin. Really hoping the shoe drops on Hero soon.

I stand with Birm until someone proves they are better connected and more honest/fair.

I dunno, I would prefer to pay money for worse coverage and access. /s

Nanners or nah?

Definitely maybe. I’m guessing it depends on how things go with McClellan this weekend. They feel good about Curry and Hero by all accounts, and are looking for 3 guys on the interior.

Committed to Oklahoma

OV is off. I really think they’re getting two of Branch, Nwankpa or Pope.

Talk show host Jimmy Kimmel gets college football bowl game named after him

Starting this postseason, there will be a college football bowl game named after a talk show host.

Jimmy Kimmel announced Wednesday night that the Dec. 18 bowl game at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles will be known as the Jimmy Kimmel LA Bowl.

Kimmel joked during “Jimmy Kimmel Live” about the company he joins having a bowl named after him.

“There are so many memorable colorful names – the R&L Carriers New Orleans Bowl, the RoofClaim.com Boca Raton Bowl, the Tropical Smoothie Café Frisco Bowl, the LendingTree Bowl, the Cheese-It Bowl,” Kimmel said. “The list goes on and on. And ever since I was 52, which was last year, I have dreamed of having a college football bowl game named after me. And tonight I am thrilled to announce that dream is finally coming true.”

The game, which will feature the No. 1 team from the Mountain West Conference vs. the No. 5 team from the Pac-12, is set to be broadcast on ABC.

According to USA TODAY, it is accurate for Kimmel to say this is the first bowl game named after a person. There was a John Hancock Bowl named after an insurance company. Kimmel joked about “Papa John” not counting.

The same USA TODAY article notes that a company paid $300,000 in 2018 for naming rights to the Bahamas Bowl. It’s unclear how much Kimmel paid to have his name on the LA bowl game.

Just sayin': If Kimmel (or probably the network) only paid in the $300K range for naming rights, that's just "chump change" either of them. In addition, to providing some new/unique material for Kimmel's monologues; it's probably tax write off for either Kimmel or the network to advertise/promote his TV show too.

He won't see any WR like what we have until we play in the playoffs.

Good luck to the young man though Clemson is an outstanding school obviously!
