Staggering? Just over $1B per year for an event with viewers that will dwarf everything but the Super Bowl?

P5s will welcome with open arms --- once the check clears.

I thought Northwestern student/athletes won the right to organize some years ago.

I recall the Village Voice picked him to win the Heisman senior year.

Matt Forte did more with less his senior year than anybody.

Kicker still needed.

A great day for the Wave! 24/7's historic data is interesting -- they only have Makhi Hughes as the 47th highest-ever rated signee and yet a case could be made he was the best player on the field in '23. Pratt ranked 87th and we know how he turned out.

Darnell Mooney type? As fast as Darnell?

Here’s my write up on Craddock’s career as well as an interview with the new OC. Hope you enjoy http://waveaftergreenwave.com/2024/01/30/the-joe-craddock-experience/ Speaking as a former sports journalist (starting at The Hullabaloo), that was a well-rounded interview. No pressure or expectations f...

Race to the bottom.

What was Tulane's balance sheet in '23?

I'll be convinced Sumrall's got a handle on the kicking game when he signs an Aussie punter.

I kicked an extra point in the 1981 spring game, when the 2nd teamers "defeated" the starters. I appreciated Coach Gibson giving me a chance, but that didn't get me an invite to pre-season camp in Covington.

So dredging up an overdubbed video of Der Furer making fun of a long departed AD is somehow supposed to reflect well on the future of Tulane athletics and its fans?

ROLL WAVE

It's a new CFB world. Good time to get out.

Good news, sure, but I'll wait for the signing.

Since that story buried the lede,
the deal is 57% about women's hoops.

The NCAA men's final last year drew 14.4
million viewers. Women's drew 9.9m.

There is an article to be written, perhaps even a PHD dissertation on the economic model of college football - a great title would be "Bastard Capitalism." If we are talking about the "efficiency of the market" - college football isn't it. These NY6 bowl games charge top dollar f...

ROLL WAVE!!!

It's gonna be hilarious when the next evolution of NFL-Lite is the Big Two leagues mandating expansion fees the same way NFL and NBA franchises have to pay. It makes sense when you think about it. You have 90 schools jockeying for position in a club of 36 members. Not all can get in, so why not blee...

Houston's been waiting for the next Andre Ware since...the first Andre Ware.

Terrence. With two "r"'s.

Can schools sign players - oops, student-athletes - to multi year contracts?
