NIL still has a cap right? I think eventually most big ACC schools start maxing out the fully amount.  Probably a little too early to stay.  Just like this past year, I think the moving is far from over.  And the SEC frankly needs to swap out some teams. 

Top 2 SEC teams did go down though.  Go Tigers 

If there’s a cap, let me know the ceiling. Michigan offered Bryce Underwood over 10 million to go to Michigan ( stealing him from LSU ) 

ACC schools won’t be able to compete with these schools.

Just saw this…damn that is crazy

That will give more ammo for people to loathe UNC.  That said, I doubt it happens.  I can't see Bill coddling a bunch of mama's boys.  Not UNC per se, but college aged guys in general.  He stepped on toes in New England and made full grown men feel some sort of way...and these were pros.  Belechick just isn't the mentoring type of guy a program needs to foster teenagers into men.

Yeah it’s an extremely odd development IMO.  Bill must really want to coach again.  I would think UNC would want a younger coach this time and Bill has never recruited before.  Obviously would be fascinating to see what he could do though.

I think next season is when power 5 schools are going to be operating under a 20.5 million cap

Tons of articles,  that’s just the first I hit, probably a lot better ones.  You can just google 20.5 million cap for NIL.  Dabo was talking about it the other day and how schools wont be able to out spend them.  That’s a total sports NIL cap.  So you might start to see some real division on who might choose to focus on basketball vs football.

Let's hope something is done,, but I can't see those  WITH the money making it so those with out money , will be on a level playing field. 

And what "student"  will  sue the 5 power conferences for limiting their use of NIL , 

Something has to give.  

Good article here from  Duke , The Chronicle

Yeah, I'm all for the kids getting paid for their services that bring in a lot of money for everyone else but they're going to have to figure out some sensible guidelines or they're gonna kill the golden goose eventually.

The Golden Goose is us.  Baseball is in the process of doing this to fans by making everything a PAY to watch.  People viewing has drop in large numbers from the days o WTBS the Braves,  WOR the Mets,  WGN  Cubs,   and they wonder why the younger generation doesn't watch.  If college football become Pay to Watch,  the golden goose will disappear. IF cable, satellite, streaming services keep raising the rates to watch ( so they can pay ESPN , SEC Big10 networks etc,,  it'll too lose viewers.   We already have ala carte selections of what we watch.. hence we don't watch 7 home shopping networks.

Let the speculation begin!

 

Shedeur Sanders posted a video on IG driving by the Raiders stadium with the caption "Legendary".

 

I thought Prime was staying at Colorado,but a chance to coach his son in that market big city bright lights. Seems like something Prime couldn't turn down. Also that beast of a TE they have Bowers.

 

Ladies and Gentlemen you got your wish no more Prime in college football. You pushed him out now get ready to let the circus come to the NFL.

 

 

Raiders will replace the Ravens as my bandwagon team if this happens. Sorry I'm just being real about my fandom.

If he does come to the NFL I'd expect nothing less than the Raiders. I suspect the new team HQ would be moved to Circus Circus.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
