    Hope against NIL insanity?

    College sports will still have the pageantry and passion you don't find in pro sports (at least during the regular season). By becoming more like pro sports, I just mean in the ways that players are compensated so that you solve some of these mobility issues. Your #2 is a noble thought, but...

    Hope against NIL insanity?

    Ok... I'm completely on board with some kind of reform that prevents a coach from jumping ship before the bowl games/playoffs. That is also something you never see in the pros. It would require changing the transfer portal period so that everything starts after the season is entirely over for...

    Hope against NIL insanity?

    But what if it just looked more like pro sports? Those players make lots of money, of course. But a star player isn't switching a team three times in four years. In a league like the NFL with a strict salary cap, you get more competitive balance. I don't see why you can't have a system that...

    Mart in the NBA

    18 points on 7/11 shooting. That works!

    Mart in the NBA

    His athleticism is what it is. Scouts will know his limitations already. The shooting numbers aren't the greatest, but I can't imagine scouts care that much about 30 shots in a one-time drill compared to multiple years of stats at the highest level of college ball.

    BREAKING: QB RJ DAY COMMITS TO NU

    By not top tier, I simply meant it isn't Division I. I probably should have referred to the school size as I believe that is what the divisions are about in Ohio. DeSales is a Division II school now.

    End of the Prime mystique

    I really don't agree with that, but..... it's not an argument anybody is ever going to win.

    End of the Prime mystique

    You are entitled to that opinion and I won't try to change your mind. I just feel we would be a better nation with fewer billionaires and more people who understood human kind and what makes life worth living.

    BREAKING: QB RJ DAY COMMITS TO NU

    St. Francis De Sales is a Division II school in Ohio, so not the top tier. But still, De Sales is an historically strong Div II program and this kid is setting all the passing records there with one more year to go. So, there is a seed there. If nothing else, it gained us a day of national media...

    End of the Prime mystique

    Me trying to tell you you´re wrong and making terrible decisions would be as stupid as you telling that to everybody else, so I won´t. I´ll just say I wish we had more sociology and art majors and less business majors. Our society might be a lot stronger and more understanding.

    NCAA basketball tournaments set to move to 76 teams

    The point of college athletics (at least for most of us) is entertainment. I have fun watching NU compete in bowl games, even if they are lower tier bowls. It is enjoyable for October and November NU games to have meaning by trying to get to the six win threshold. The intellectual part of me...

    Add another guard

    Another portal player signs up! Aleksej Kostic is a 6'4" guard from Austria and played last year at BYU where he averaged 4.4 points per game in about 14 minutes per game as a freshman. He shot 36.7% from three. Before BYU, he played in the Austrian Superliga where he also shot 36% from three...
