I mean, if guys start sitting out playoff games - which honestly under the current system just feels like a matter of time before it starts happening - that's the type of thing that could kill the golden goose. I mean, what's even the point of being a CFB fan if it's that obvious that the NFL bound guys just see this whole thing as a forced pitstop on their way to the league? Which is exactly the case for a lot of these guys, but you kinda of have to keep the charade going. Kinda like how the NFL somehow keeps up an act for fans like most players are signing based on guaranteed money and that's it. Every free agent talks about wanting to go somewhere that they can win, etc. then you watch them sign for a Brinks truck with some bottom feeder. LOL

I think guys paid by the collective will soon have clauses built in about play.  Of course, you can always fake an injury I guess.

lol yeah he got the draft projections and said I'll take the NIL money. 

 

I think it's the right call. Can't imagine UGA is interested in him starting next year and he's probably been told that he'll have an opportunity to compete and promised nothing more than that. What is his draft status? Probably a mid-rounder. Hitting college free agency and cashing another NIL check while hoping to improve his draft stock is probably his best bet to be honest.

Makes you think though.  Now that late round guy you're taking a shot on couldn't even pull a NIL check in college.

I think there is a 7 year loop hole now for some

Yeah, we're finally almost done with the COVID extra year stuff but evidently there's a loophole for junior college guys where that doesn't count against their D1 eligibility or something. We're probably about to see quite a few 24 and 25 year olds who aren't good enough for the NFL but on their mid-20s with several years of college experience they're still good college players. It just keeps getting dumber. LOL

Yeah watching 24 year olds playing against 19-20 year olds always feels lame when trying to evaluate these guys. 

Yeah, I mean you're talking about guys who are the age of a lot of second or third year NFL players playing against kids that are oftentimes a year or two out of HS. Legitimately men amongst boys.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By bandu · Posted

      there is one common denominator in the 2003 & 2015 Carolina Panthers teams they both had ELITE top tier Qb play.  it would require a MVP type of season from Bryce Young to have the same type of success that Jake Delhomme had in  2003 & or Cam Newton in 2015 & lead this team to a SuperBowl is this going to happen or is there any reason to believe Bryce Young is capable of playing similar to Jake Delhomme in 2003 or Cam Newton in 2015 ? well no there is no absolutely NO reason whatsoever to believe that this is going to happen in 2026 ..just saying

      Trevin Wallace - One Final Shot...or is Cherelus someone to watch?

      By CmC2k · Posted

      I'd actually like to see Cherelus get a fair shot to win the job in camp. Wallace is decent in drop zone coverage, but he gets abused in the play action game and is often times out of position in the run game. It might just be me, but I swear every time I watch Wallace play, I see multiple plays a game were it looks like he's just trying to be blocked. Watching Cherelus last year he at least looked like he was trying to hit someone on every play. Wallace plays like a LB who doesn't trust what he sees and it makes him passive and cautious versus Cherelus who regardless of if his decision is right or wrong goes at it 100%.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      Agreed.  Hasn’t happened to me either, but I feel very strongly about it.  That’s not just one of the worst things a woman could do to a man, it’s a power inherent to only women and is one of the worst things a HUMAN being can do to another.  A man can’t “hide” a pregnancy or maternity.  It’s impossible.  And that sucks for anyone that has to go through that. I always got a weird vibe off her and just found her very unlikeable.  Annoying even.  I’ve always been good at reading people and there was just something about her to me that was off-putting, somewhere under the surface.  And here we are…  she is despicable.
