Not sure I understand the post as it seems to assume football players go where endorsement opportunities are best, and that is seriously untrue. When one talks about Tuscaloosa or "little ol' Clemson", population several, it has nothing to do with money. It is atmosphere, surroundings, comfort...

Per Jose Jimenez, Oh, I hope not.

One of my many unfulfilled desires was to see a Leach team play a Johnson team.

Okay, you hooked me. Who is this coach?

That was the most surprising hire in the SEC, including Kiffin, who was known to be high hurdling back to the big time. Apparently he was not run off by Washington State, but maybe like Mack Brown at UNC, got tired of playing second fiddle to basketball, or in this case, U. of Washington. But if...

Better than a like.

That really is a demeaning nickname, whether intended or not. Besides which ventriloquist Jeff Dunham has made a fortune with that particular one. I know it will not, but I do wish it would just stop,

Perhaps he was talking about ... well, what the hell could he have been talking about? Is that one of those alternate facts things? If three wins and losing to the Citadel is a high level then he is on something uncut.

Yes it is.

What's the difference in first or last? If they're at the end of the schedule they have had the same amount of time to get experience as we have. The problem with Clemson being first is that they have tons of former freshmen and sophomores returning -- more than half their team -- and the No. 1...

You know it is possible, and I am not making any claim here, but it is possible that Calvin Johnson had so much native talent that he is one of those former greats who got it all done on ability and can't teach a lick. We always assume the greats are natural teachers, but very few are. It is so...

That is very odd. Johnson was one of the great gentlemen of the game, an all-pro gamer and as fine a catcher of the football who ever played, and a Georgia Tech man as a bonus. And you couldn't root him to the Super Bowl because ... a Georgia guy was QB? I would have rooted for Calvin Johnson if...

a: You had something going for a minute there. b: speaking of transfers, will the last one out of Florida State turn off the stadium lights? What in the wide, wide world of sports is going on there? (Miami does seem to be using FSU as its exclusive transfer portal.)

If he did that then it is just more Collins gibberish.

I know where a really good one will become available in May if we are into transfers. Two years experience in RPO, two trips to NC finals, 4-star out of HS, and he is a flat out gunslinger. (Runner, I can't judge.) And he has two years eligibility left, and not leaving his position from sour...

Georgia in the playoffs would be like having your idiot nephew apply to Harvard. Anybody can but there is no point to it.

Well, there is this QB fellow ...

I thought it kind of interesting that while the committee and the critics wailed about Clemson's ACC schedule, Oklahoma seems to get there most years by winning the Big 12, a collection of hustlers after the big prize. But I'll play: Clemson, Alabama, OSU (over my protests) and Oregon. If the...

Do I remember right that Guthrie was considered a huge guard at 230?

Clemson people will tell you that a) none -- none -- of Clemson's marquee players had the kind of game needed to win; that Lawrence, who always has had difficulty settling down after the start of a game -- he does get himself pumped up -- had a miserable game with 13 overthrown balls, including...
