I'm posting these links in light of today's ruling allowing NFL players to enter the NCAA transfer portal. The destruction of college football is nearly complete. Glad I was alive when it was still college football. College Football Classics is pretty cool.

I saw the ruling. Hopefully any player who actually comes back. They blow out both knees and they end up on welfare for the rest of their lives. Fk them losers.

It's an interesting ruling, but shouldn't be overly impactful long term. Right now we have a unique situation with the new 5 for 5 rule. Guys that went pro after 4 years and didn't make the NFL roster can technically come back to join a college team for one more year. Each year after this should be less of an issue... heck how many guys that have a real shot at making an NFL roster are really going to go pro with one year of eligibility left when the money is so much better to just stay for a 5th year.

It’s just bonkers that any judge has the authority to adjust nearly any “rule” in college football.
They probably don't. It's easier to see if you can shop the right judge who will push it than to try to change things legislatively (whether gov or NCAA), though. Thus we have America as it exists on Aug 20, 2026.

I mean, whatever. Just watch football this fall and ask yourself whether it's over. BTW, it's always been about the money - just not for the players. There will be a course correction.
Nobody has really ever cared about the people playing the game, I don't think anybody would care if emmitt come backs...they are just helmets, symbols, and numbers,,,which is why I think football is so popular in America. There isn't a sport that dehumanizes the athlete more...low salaries, life threatening injuries, poor post career investment, any player speaks up and gets blacklisted. I brought up the idea that we could buy a semi-pro team and just suit them up and win, and really people wouldn't care anymore. It works for football because of the costume and the fanbase being ignorant wild animals, myself included.

I’m sitting here wondering what kind of word salad Rhule would come up with at his pressor. Bound to be fantastic.
Rhule walking to the podium after a hard fought 13-10 victory over Ohio in OT. Preparing his "it's about the process" speech.

I will be watching very little "big time" college football. I'll watch most of Nebraska's games this year of course. For the first time in a long while, I won't have tickets. Donations went up and the person I shared tickets with didn't want to buy them. And I decided not to pay for everything on my own. I might regret it. We shall see.

It's a horrible ruling. And it's been allowed in college basketball for at least a year. D-league players, foreign pros. We think that we'll have a damn good basketball team again this year, but all it takes is for an opponent to bring in one pro to make a huge impact.

My interest in college football has never been lower. I don't listen to talk radio, what the camp preview, practice videos and Coach interviews anymore. I'll check in on the Huskers but my excitement from week to week has completely dissipated. It just doesn't seem the same anymore. Maybe that changes if the team is watchable but IDK.

I have a feeling things will be changing on that required donation stuff after this season if the team isn’t successful. I just saw an article that there are three games for Minnesota this year where if you buy three red bear and pizzas you can get two tickets to the gopher football game. They are doing this for 1000 tickets available to each of those games.

Same here. It don’t even seem authentic anymore every other week there’s a judge making a ruling that changes eligibility.

Lane Kiffin had the audacity to call Dae'Quan Wright (Cleveland Browns) and Zxavian Harris (New Orlean Saints) "kids" in a recent interview. Both of those kids are almost 23 years old.

"They were granted a fifth year by a judge saying that they were wronged by the NCAA and that they should've had the fifth year all along like all the kids moving forward will have a fifth year."

The SEC is on board and the ACC and the Big 12 are drafting similar resolutions to ban the NFL to college down transfers. With all of the insanity of the evolution of college football, the Power 4 finally flexed in the right direction.
