Re: G6 playoff gaining momentum

https://x.com/themscpodcast/status/2002588108345450688 Reinventing the FCS is a terrible idea. Energy of this thread is all wrong. The fight should be for regulation around nil and transfer portal, not a g5 playoff. It’s a huge slap in the face to all of us who were on the team/worked with the team...

Re: G6 playoff gaining momentum

The only reason G5 is included now is to avoid antitrust lawsuits. After this year, look for the P4 to propose something that shares some CFP money with the G5 and maybe creates something that guarantees national broadcast opportunities in exchange for the G5 not getting in the CFP. I was just in g...

If there was a zero tolerance policy at the Big 4, the shortage of CPAs would be even worse 😂😂

Re: Birmingham Bowl

Dowell was on the Josh Graham Show today. Said if we had to play in a Walmart parking lot, we'd do it. Said he called 4-5 seniors before accepting and they were all for playing.

Re: How long will we have access?

They will change it next year.

There is already an MOU with Notre Dame that if they are in the top 12 they automatically get in.

I expect changes to eliminate, or severely curtail G5 participation as well.

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

I hope Oregon scores 100 points.

G6 participation in the future just got a lot harder.

Changes will be made to the format by February.

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

The CFP committee always makes a point of emphasizing that they are picking best not most deserving. If that is true then there is no way JMU gets in the field with the #123 SOS.

If the Tulane job is in play, wouldn’t that be a better get for him than JMU? Just thinking about resources, conference, recruiting, etc.
Nobody would take JMU over Tulane if both were on the table. My guess is Tulane moved on.

Re: Let's pile on Gillin!!!!!

I have not reviewed any financial information related to East Side.. however, in theory, long-term, isn't the revenue from the east supposed to provide more revenue so we can get better players? If revenue from East side can be used for nil. In theory, yes, but that assumes a product that people wa...

Re: Lane Kiffin Sweepstakes

Lane is not a changed man. He’s still a weasel. And he still has never won anything. My guess is that LSU will also get the full Lane experience and regret ever dealing with him.

Re: Gillin

It shouldn't be about Loggains, even if it will be. Gillin has said he wants to raise the athletics budget from $50 million to $100 million in the next 10 years, yet right now they're "taking from one pot to put in another" for NIL. Gillin talked about having sponsor logos on the field and court th...

Re: Beck out at Coastal

Re: Could ACC be snubbed and SBC get in CFP?

Most folks in this thread make no sense. Polls have already come out. It is now black and white. Miami is out. So is Vandy and Texas. If UVA wins ACC, they are in. If Duke wins, JMU is in. Period. Because JMU will not be ranked lower than conference champion Duke. It’s a done deal. The final CFP po...
