    Recruiting hits (misses) keep on coming

    I think we went from 10-15 years ago complaining about the "big conspiracy" of teams buying players (i.e. church donations, parent's car washes being bought, etc.) to now being in the situation where we know teams are buying players but we don't/won't/can't pay to play. I think other than 5*...

    Another Decommitment

    The great thing is this simply means we will get him out of the portal in two years. For the SEC, recruiting out of high school will probably become near non-existent (maybe the sure fire 5* players). Like at Indiana, we will just start using other schools as the "minor" leagues and go get...

    Soresby Ruling

    I would think they would all recuse themselves and the Chief Justice would then assign a special panel to hear the appeal. Usually, Judges do try to avoid the appearance of impropriety, even if in their heart/mind they know none exists. Per the Texas Code of Judicial Conduct: Canon 2...

    Vanderbilt's Diego Pavia went completely undrafted

    Well, he did make about $2.5M in NIL money last year. I can absolutely see some borderline players remaining in college an extra year to collect NIL money. Unless you go in the first four rounds or so, your chances of making it on the starting roster is slim.

    Hyman - Donati

    Well there is talk of expanding it to 24 teams.... once they expand it to 138 teams we will be a lock!

    Chicago Bears leaving Chicago. - Lol.

    Per Google, the only libertarian mayor in the top 100 cities is Wichita. Not sure that would be considered a toilet... :)

    Would you support naming rights for Williams-Brice?

    I was thinking Bojangle's myself

    Sam Darnold lost money for playing in Super Bowl

    I wonder if teams are changing travel plans before the game. Maybe coming in one day later, because of potential tax consequences. Could a player put in his contract that he wants to be paid only $100 per game played in a jock tax state and be paid $15,000,000 a game in non-jock tax states?

    OT: Younger people and colon cancer

    I was having issues so they did a colonoscopy when I was 40 and they found pre-cancerous polyps. I now get one every three years. Took about 6 years before I got "clear" result and have been clean for the last 4. Back then the doctor said if it hadn't been caught early, I probably would not...

    Saw this on my facebook page: if you could bring back any former gamecock football player to play next season who would it be and why?

    Ryan Succop. Mr. Automatic from almost any distance. Even if the team were terrible next year, all they would need to do is get it to the other team's 40 and we could get 3 points....

    We will win our next 2 MBB games

    It's the chicken curse. Giving us hope when the writing is on the wall....

    Belichick not a 1st ballot HOFer??

    The whole "but he had Brady..." argument is silly. Cignati had Mendoza, Chizik had Newton, Bill Walsh had Joe Montana. Every winning head coach has a great QB, almost by definition.

    Lou Holtz in hospice care...

    In his second year.... :) I do remember the way he could build up the opposing team to be a world beater the week before we played them.

    Beck is one ugly dude....

    Need to bring back the old switched at birth thread where you find the person's doppelganger.

    Breaking: First professional player set to return to college sports

    Could you imagine finding a bunch of retired NBA/MLB/NFL all stars who have eligibility and pay them some crazy NIL amount to come back to win a NCAA championship...
