And there's still people who think players shouldn't get paid big bucks. Not only did players get him that big contract in the first place, but ironically, they also got him fired so he could live out his days with more money than 99% of them will ever see. Players deserve salaries, not just NIL compensation. Whatever happened to them unionizing? Maybe let's open that door again. What a lousy message to send to the kids that the school can afford to pay >$100M for a guy to not work, but can't give the a dime. It's a godsdamn disgrace. 3 1 2 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

Dynasty Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 I know they're not any good this season, but there's something funny about Auburn losing to a subdivision team (New Mexico State) that they, like everyone in their conference, schedule in an attempt to get an extra win. Screw the ACC and SEC for doing that. Play nine conference games like everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screw the ACC and SEC for doing that. Play nine conference games like everyone else. I'm not going to defend the ACC because that conference is a joke, but as a fan of a team that consistently plays one of the toughest schedules in the country and that, next season, plays the most difficult schedule I've ever seen, it gets a little old seeing this argument. I'd say the average SEC team plays a more difficult schedule than the average non-SEC team. Go after the Michigan's and Oregon's of the world for their joke non-conference schedules. My team, Florida, is pretty mediocre and likely won't be bowl eligible and would probably be a nine or ten win team with Michigan's schedule or Penn State’s. 4 hours ago, WestCoastBias said: Universities shouldn't value education first?? The benefit of having high-performing athletic departments to universities is clear enough and, frankly, there's a large enough separation between athletic departments and actual universities, that yes, schools would be wise to hire athletic directors with an eye on actually be as good as possible at sports, in my opinion. edit: I guess I can't speak specifically about Arizona State's situation but for Florida, for instance, it would absolutely benefit the university to get serious about their academic programs. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing more. Same with the coaches and AD.

Beyond that, they're nice things to have that bring attention to your school every year. Schools should find ways to make it affordable for students that aren't playing sports for them. 11 hours ago, See Red said: The benefit of having high-performing athletic departments to universities is clear enough and, frankly, there's a large enough separation between athletic departments and actual universities, that yes, schools would be wise to hire athletic directors with an eye on actually be as good as possible at sports, in my opinion. Athletic departments at the top level aren't even run by schools anymore, they just use the facilities that the school supplies. Clemson even has the initials for its booster club on the football field. Texas A&M isn't even the one paying Jimbo's retirement fund. It's the Aggies boosters. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Red Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 I can’t imagine he has much of an NFL future. I’m not just saying this as a rival fan since I’m on the record saying he’s a great college player, but his athleticism won’t be as big of a weapon in the NFL as it is against the future pros in something other than sports he currently plays against and his passing skillset is pretty much just throwing up jump balls to Wilson and Coleman. And frankly, a lot of his success is probably just from having six years of experience in CFB, four of them starting games in the same system.

Maybe I'm just an old man yelling at clouds but medical redshirt or not, I don't think this should be allowed. I'd be in favor of a five year max, personally. We've seen this year what a huge advantage having one of these sixth year QBs is. I also think the extra covid year of eligibility was a mistake.
