    It’s kinda sad that only 1 team in the top 25 has a top ten SOS (assuming I’m understanding the numbers correctly)

    This is why CFB will be semi-pro football here in a couple of years with two main "leagues."

    I think many will find it difficult to root for teams when they're mostly one and done, as in "the portal". I am not all that excited about Bo Nix at QB. It seems mercenary. You might disagree, with Caleb Williams.

    Now it's all in the open. Sign with us, here's the cash. That's semi-pro (or more) right now. So the question is, will we have an interest in the two leagues? I would think it'll be perceived as minor league football, with little connection to the
    schools. In five years it'll be as meaningful as the U21 soccer teams.

    How do you get that bad SOS in teh B1G? Trying for something a lot
    weaker than App St, I guess...UConn, CO St, Hawaii. That would do it....even Illinois puts one half-assed team (UVA) on their non-conf schedule.

    I agree somewhat with Williams. I would rather have Jaxson Dart still wearing C&G.

    Now it's all in the open. Sign with us, here's the cash. That's semi-pro (or more) right now. So the question is, will we have an interest in the two leagues? I would think it'll be perceived as minor league football, with little connection to the

    That's quite possible. Time will tell. I'm not going to get worked up over it either way.

    I've said that I believe, within X years (X<5), the NFL will basically be running college football.
