I just heard a rumor from a pretty good source that is saying bama is going to offer drake maye a million dollar NIL deal to get him there.   Supposedly UNC is losing a ton on offense so it would behoove maye to switch schools.  If he sits out the bowl game then that would be the tell tale sign

That would be hilarious and kill the UNC fanboys, but his family has been a big deal in Chapel Hill for years now, so I wouldn't put much stock in the rumor.

Definitely. Glad LSU and Tennessee lost because they got way too much credit for beating Alabama, a team that could easily be 7-5. Might have been the worst Alabama team in a while and somehow LSU with two losses was knocking on the door for the playoffs. Same with Tennessee last week.

Bama, Clemson, Ohio St.  Could argue they are the weakest versions in a decade.   Those have been the big 3 the last decade.  

Michigan and UGA IMO only look great in the context of this season.    I think they get stomped by top teams of the past decade. 

Pros and cons to parity.  I think it is temporary under the current structure.  I think college football still has a lot of work to do with NIL.  It’s basically pay to play and professional sports currently.  And some programs are really going to take advantage of NIL and the transfer portal in ways we havent seen fully play out yet IMO.   Handful of programs are just going to write checks others can’t keep pace with.

Ohio State and Alabama are a bit of a surprise because they have solid QBs. Clemson has DJ Trash at QB, dude is legit terrible and loses games.

DJ is trash, but more of an impact going forward is Dabo’s refusal to utilize the transfer portal and the promoting coaches from within. His reliance on recruiting kids and developing them is not going to work in this era of college football. 
 

I’ve generally enjoyed Dabo over the past decade or so but his value system doesn’t match up with what college football is turning into. I do not think Dabo will change and I can’t fault him for sticking to what he believes in.  I think Clemson, will continue to do well in the ACC (while it lasts) but likely will not be competing for national championships.

I mean it works if you recruit a super stud QB and he actually pans out.  They have been just a QB short the past two years.    And they probably are in the CFP with just a decent QB the last two years (not even a stud). 
 

He has one of the best prospects on the bench.   A real head scratcher there why he is waiting on using him

Oh I definitely see him transferring.  He has 2 options: Pac-12 to get bonkers awesome inflated stats to hype himself up for the draft or SEC for a legacy run at a title.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
