    Conference Realignment

    It was over 40 players out for FSU AND UGA At the time, it was 21 for FSU and about the same for UGA. Both teams have a lot of transfers and opt-outs—not just FSU TA&M has about 38 out, last that I saw

    Conference Realignment

    The last I saw, FSU was only down 24 (and that’s three more than the last time I looked) I saw two, with DJU being the weaker of the two.

    Conference Realignment

    It’s possible to root for FSU in the Orange Bowl and against them in the lawsuit.

    Building an Offensive Line

    That would argue that it shouldn’t take 5 years, and that the reason it did was poor training practices. Worst case, pre-transfer-portal, a good coach who recruits decently should be able to train up a a recruiting class in three years—juniors should be able to anchor a line, and for the juniors...

    Conference Realignment

    Some FSU law graduates think that they’ll be able to keep a Florida venue, and that they have a good shot of winning under Florida law. Their contention isn’t that the GOR isn’t valid. It’s that the GOR was extended to 2036 but the ESPN payments are not agreed to beyond 2027. That is, the GOR...

    Building an Offensive Line

    Because I saw no progress for years, and it looks like Geep Wade got the OL turned around mostly in one year

    Conference Realignment

    It might have been 15 years ago or more when players started sitting out bowl games for the NFL draft. There have been players injured recently in bowl games or playoff games who have gone from first round draft picks to not getting drafted at all. Plus, if you’re not one of “the guys” at your...

    We had almost half our wins since 2020 this season. More than half since Key took over. Guess it doesn’t take 5 years to build an OL According to the recruiting sites, this is one of the better years for our major sports

    Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    In comparison to our recruiting class, Sanders at Colorado said publicly that is plan is to get 40% of his players as upperclassmen transfers, 40% as transfers with multiple years left, and 20% from high school. My guess is that he’s hoping the younger transfers won’t be able to transfer again...

    For the idea of selfish players, there are better players than Iverson to use—but Iverson had a rant about it. The details reflect poorly on Iverson and his coach, Larry Brown: http://es.pn/29STwg8. Iverson needed to square his life away, and Brown watched his star player fall apart The team...

    ACC 2023-2024

    The ACC KenPom rating is mostly set at a conference level, but it could move up a little because it was lower in the preseason ratings. As those fall off, the conference should move up a bit. I’m still thinking 6 ACC tournament teams—maybe 7

    ACC 2023-2024

    That looks like 6 or 7 in (probably 6). The preseason bias should be worked out by late January https://kenpom.com/blog/what-happens-to-preseason-ratings-when-its-not-preseason-anymore/ https://open.substack.com/pub/kenpom/p/preseason-ratings-are-live?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web
