They just look sloppy. Some schools do a really good job with it. OSU comes to mind. But Michigan's just looks like some kid was slapping stickers on all willy nilly.

Michigan's QB has half the back of his helmet covered and there's no way he's scored that many times this early in the season.

I like how they're just completely talking around the fact that Texas' reemergence as a relevant football program just so happened to occur at the same time NIL kicked off and they're the richest athletic department in the country. Do you think their miiiiiiight be some correlation there?

Might be premature on this, but I think NIL, transfer portal and all this conference movement will kill college football. It’s going to end up being a larger playoff where certain teams will make it every year and the 1 or 2 biggest conferences will basically control all the decision making.

The non top 1 or 2 conferences will basically be minor leagues where any star players just get sucked into the top teams. I posted above about a kid from Tulane who looks like he’s got it. I’d be shocked if he stays at Tulane.

Spoilers: He won't. He'll chase the bag and get it

Spoilers: My next post basically said that lol!

Also, case in point, the Texas CB who just had the interception transferred from Clemson and Clemson has done very well recruiting DBs for many years.

And DJ U transfered out of Clemson then Oregon State. that's really worked out for FSU.........

The NIL is the big killer. Transfers happened for years. The no wait transfer is annoying and has been for years ( Wilson from NC State to Wisconsin as another from way back as a grad student in a something something not at nc state). 

I'm not thrilled with the transfer portal, it's the current NIL that's screwed this up. And Michigan can eat this from Texas. They were a main culprit in paying via the portal from the start.

    • Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....
    • I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end. 
    • We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
