    Conference Realignment

    Agree with all but FSU. Since joining in 1991 and becoming eligible for the ACC title in 1992, FSU has won 50% of the ACC titles in that span. They joined the ACC and immediately won 9 in a row (including shared titles). They had two cool periods (2006-11, and 2015-22) but have since proven...

    House vs. NCAA

    We all spend money on something that doesn't make sense to someone else. Some people will spend money on high end cars when a Honda Civic could get them to and from work just as easily. Some people spend good money on quality bourbon when cheap whiskey will get you just as drunk. Some people...

    House vs. NCAA

    I was responding completely to that last sentence. I don't consider gross mischaracterization of peoples motives a minor point.

    You don't have to "get" them but you can renegotiate the amount of games played. Push them to 7-8 games a year. More high end TV inventory for ESPN.

    House vs. NCAA

    That's your defense for claiming everyone who disagrees with your opinion derives their self-worth based on how 18-22 year olds perform? Gotcha.

    No.

    House vs. NCAA

    I can agree with all your points except the last sentence. There are a lot of people who can and will support the future of college football with paid players who do not derive their self-worth based on how 18-22 year olds perform. That's painting with an awfully big brush.

    Conference Realignment

    IIRC, the Big 12 still has a grant of rights, meaning they would be hard to poach. Of course, if we get to the point of poaching before 2031, when the Big 12 media deal runs out, it's likely because our own GOR failed so their GOR might not be much protection. If our GOR holds, then I would...

    Conference Realignment

    Two things. I moved your post here to the conference realignment thread because I thought it was spot on for this thread. Also, I have to say that getting Navy not only adds a top 50 viewership program but helps us cement the relationship with ND to our advantage. If we have Stanford and Navy...

    Mike Kelley graduated from the same HS I did. My grandfather loved him.

    The roster limit is currently 120. "But those scholarships would come in other sports, if the football limit stays at 85 — and mean the end of walk-ons. There already are roster limits in most sports, 120 being that number in football. So for years, there was a clear dividing line — scholarship...

    There is NO LEGAL MANNER in which NIL money can be capped. NIL is based on a persons name, image, and likeness and not for performance on the field. (I just said that with a straight face.) Even in pro leagues with salary caps an athlete can make an unlimited amount of additional revenue from...

    I don't need to revisit this in September. I am happy today that GT got some positive press. If by September a new chart comes out and GT has 0 TEs in the NFL it won't change the fact that right now GT is getting positive press for a change. At any point did I say that you couldn't post an...

    First, literally no one here is proclaiming GT as TE U. This is, however, a message board filled with GT fans (short for fanatic) who generally (you seem to be an exception here, at least on this topic) like to celebrate positive news about the team they love. Also, consider the fact that...

    Gotcha. I misread that initially.
