The interesting thing to watch with state now is if someone comes and offers Keats a bag. They were coach shopping before state got hot and he knows it. He might bounce.

I thought about that earlier. It's a possible and the bag offer is perhaps likely too.

I would bounce if I were Keatts, he was a miracle shot away from being fired and he’ll have to rebuild the entire State team if he stays.

Winning the ACC tournament triggered a lot of bonuses, and a bag of money.  If someone comes at him, they better have deep pockets.  And would a deep pockets team come after a guy who was on the hot seat until the ACC tournament?

That's a good point. From the team introduction, most of the guys playing are seniors and grad students.

I’ve said before, State doesn’t have the NIL brand to be anything other than a Cinderella which sucks because NIL is ruining college sports. Rebuilding this team is going to be tough.

If I’m Keatts and Arkansas comes calling then I’m gone.

Does he have to stay to get that bag or did he get the bag already?

I mean, state was always competitive under Herb Sendek and they ran him off and sucked for years. They always get too big for their britches. If I'm Keats and the check has cleared I'm absolutely entertaining offers.

I blame Linville for this State loss.

 

He said he was done and the moment he came back State has looked awful. Think for ruining a State Nat'l championship.

Wait, I thought you told us all State was winning a ship.  Humble pie is served

They ultimately have to put some guardrails on NIL. College football is already ridiculously concentrated where only a small handful of teams have a reasonable opportunity of competing and basketball will get the same way of they don't do something.

Purdue definitely has enough to beat UConn…but Bama can score with anyone and they ain’t rolling over here

I think UConn and Purdue are the two best teams but I can't see Purdue beating them. It's just a bad match up. Bama runa completely hit or cold. Hot Bama can beat anybody. Cold Bama can get beat by anybody.

      Thielen was a "dawg" like Dan Morgan likes to say. And they replaced him with puppies.  The analytics are probably saying this is more targets for younger receivers they are hoping to develop, specifically the first round pick from 2025. The eye test is going to show a very inexperienced group of WRs that are going to have some serious growing pains, for a 3rd year QB who has not yet proven to be the guy going forward.  It's crazy how in the literal first game of his NFL career, Cam Newton showed everyone he was a star QB and there was never any doubt about that. It almost didn't even matter who was around him, although he definitely had a serious lack of talent at WR for most of his career. Bryce is going into his third season and there is still a ton of doubt, and who is around him is seen as crucial for him to have success. I don't like it.

      Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.
