What i want to know is, what prompted Colin Cowherd to have an interview with Colt McCoys wife in the first place. Cowherd is a shrewd S of A B and i have never liked him because the way he come off on some of his shows. I just wonder if maybe he set her up by asking certain question that would lead her to say the things she said. Just my thoughts on this.

Colin was talking about Tressel and the situation at Ohio State, and the discourse turned to players receiving/being offered benefits.

Ms. McCoy called in on her own volition. You could find it on the ESPN podcenter, but I'm not linking that site.

I listened to the show when that went down. She randomly called the show. Colin would ask her a semi-general question, and she'd take it on different tangents for 2-3 minutes at a time. Really liked to talk. He didn't bait her at all. She did it all herself.

You take 32 and mimic the NFL

32 teams are all that are profitable anyway

screw that.. make the NFL provide a slush fund to pay players at all university that play football. its the best minor league system of any of the profession sports leagues.

Iowa and West Virginia have been pretty good, especially lately, to be left out. Texas Tech, Colorado, Georgia Tech, Syracuse, Arizona, Arizona St, Oregon St, Pitt, South Carolina, Clemson all come to mind.

I can agree with Georgia Tech, Colorado, Arizona & Arizona State and South Carolina. Maybe Clemson. What has Iowa ever done to be considered? Maybe I don't follow them enough, but they've never really been a major contender, have they?

GA Tech and Colorado both have won MNCs, so I should have put them in. Colorado has been horrific lately, though. West Virginia had a few good years here and there, but mostly due to one or two good recruiting classes, then they fall off the map for a while. Pitt was really good a couple of decades ago, but lately... not so much.

Colorado is bankrupt

You had division names on that before, didn't you? I thought I saw a different post there, but it's gone now.

What do you mean, bankrupt? Financially or morally? Both probably apply. :tongue2:

I did but it turned out all messed up...I went off the NFL model NFC north south etc you could mess with it all day


Colorado has financial issues...so I took into account profitability as well...even if some of those schools are historically bad at football I think that would change once they are in "the League"
