Yes. It’s basically pro sports without a salary cap and without a contract to hold you to.

Her presser is “On Demand” on ESPN+
She was very impressive. Worth the watch.

This is obviously 100% tampering if true. Its hard to be a college football fan nowadays with shit like this. Although NCAA rules prohibit coaches from contacting players before they submit their names into the portal, the system still evokes the Wild West. Donors can approach without penalty. See ...

Has anyone heard anything about Patrick Jenkins going into the portal and transferring to LSU? I had someone send me the link, and on the LSU side they think its a done deal. Thought it was strange because I just read and article with Jenkins talking about how happy he is. Hope its BS because that ...

I always look hard for reasons to be optimistic- hard to find that here. Not making this inexpensive investment ($200k/yr?) will get around athletic circles. The ACC is gonna have openings and we send this message, at this time. I remember a year or less after Tommy Bowden arrived, Tulane pulled a ...

I think he wanted out badly and they wanted him out so it’s a good fallback gig for him.

Good point. A divorce would probably wipe him out. Lol.

Dan Hurley of UCONN now being heavily courted by Kentucky to take Cal’s spot. Rumors have UK’s offer to be higher than any SEC FB coach is currently making now. Wow. SEC money is nice for sure. FWIW: Hurley addressed the UK job within an hour of winning his back to back championship. He said he's n...

Impressive first showing by Ashley. From the looks of it Tulane has made another solid hire. I think she’ll have us in the NCAA’s fairly quickly.

Yes. An update would be nice.

Huge loss. Second straight year we had our best perceived player expected to return hit the portal.

Cal couldn't win at a school where he didn't need to cheat. No worries. They have already given him $5 million in NIL money to sign top talent. Link? here’s a screenshot on Twitter also https://x.com/goodmanhoops/status/1777176924210765850?s=46&t=H08XcY14tY_wg-twtPVS8g https://u.cubeupload.com/...

I think he’ll thrive there. The one and done freshman can’t compete with older transfer portal players. I think he’ll have some great success there if he changes from the failed one and done philosophy he had at UK. It worked well before the portal but after that it failed.

Another proposal that’s taking up space during a down time for College Football.

The beauty of this is that the garbage of the Big 10 and SEC will receive less money and the Alabama’s and Michigan’s will receive more. Florida St and Clemson will like this.
