I agree. In addition, Duke, Tulane and NTSU were all in championship games this weekend. Kansas is good, Vandy is good. Wake Forest is good. I could go on. It is possible for a school like Akron to get good. Akron being bad has been by decision and on purpose as far as I can tell. I just saw Hunter Y on GameDay and threw up a little in my mouth that he wasn't named after Mack. Instead, we picked Wistrcill and got I Coach. He chose ICoach on purpose in spite of him being completely unqualified for the job. Think our failure isn't on purpose? On a side note, I saw Kennesaw State play Wake Forest this year. I was very impressed with how physically they played. It was a good reminder that physicality still matters in football.

I casually check out TWolves forums and someone mentioned that Minnesota may have brought him in for a few days to evaluate him in practice to see his progress and to give him some areas to work on back in Iowa. They have been remarkably healthy so far this season, which has limited opportunities for he and the other two-ways.

Absurd start to the season for Tavari.

Yes, also if you go back to 2012 their enrollment was about 23k. In 2025 their enrollment is now north of 50k and is still growing so it has more than doubled in less than 15 years. Meanwhile, ours has been cut in half. If our student body was ~3.5x the size that it is currently (to make it comparable to Kennesaw St) we would also be in a better position to fund athletics.

Just as notable, with Portland losing, the #8 seed is now out. Just #'s 4 Maryland, 7 Georgetown, 14 Akron, 15 NC State, and 16 Furman remain. Maryland must be feeling very confident. Hopefully overly so.

What a dick. I thought it was obvious from my post - last night would have been a good time. Definitely not on the same day as the BIG10 and SEC Conference championships. Oh, and no it does not give us legitimacy playing on the same day as the BIGs, it makes us look stupid. That is why the SBC and the AAC have surpassed the MAC. Another thing.....play it on the campus of the highest rated school!!! You might actually have a chance to fill a stadium (like JMU and Tulane did). For those wondering who makes the decision..

They invested in their programs

Enrique obviously has to play for the team that will sign him but I thing the T-wolves aren't a great fit for him.

Under/over 163.5.

When people say it’s impossible to win here you have to look at situations like this, or even Indiana. Last season was their first in FBS.

Wilson isn't being punished. He's being held to the terms of a contract he signed. The players want their cake and eat it too. They want to be treated like adult professionals, but when they get treated like one they play the old "student -athlete" card crap. Screw them. If my relocation offer included me having to pay back a year's salary for leaving the company before one year, I would never have signed it. I wouldn't have needed a lawyer to tell me that. I'm sure there were better structured deals from other schools. He should have taken one of them or negotiated better. If the judge in this case rules against the collective, it will set off a series of cases far and wide pertaining to NIL contracts. It could be a good thing that drives college football to move towards collective bargaining.

that was one very awesome goal by Coach Michael

Perry Kitchen-esque to send Furman to their first ever College Cup.

A Furman defender just headed a Portland shot off the goal line with 30 seconds to go, up 1-0. Oh. My. Goodness. Looks to be a large crowd in Portland.

One might call them the godfather of college soccer. Haven't won a title in 50 years, though. Let's make sure they stay at 10 as we pursuit our 2nd Star.

Just learned St Louis has 10!!!! championships. They really dominated back in the day.

Yeah Toledo fans aren't crying over this one.

“Big get” heh. Candle is one of the most underperforming coaches in the MAC when you consider the resources he has had available to work with.

I agree it needs nipped in the butt. This type of litigation isn't how to do that. You could insert any school name, especially P4, and I'd take issue with a school suing a player for hundreds of thousands that they never actually lost themselves. Programs and coaches for years have been screwing over players. There are moral contracts that have been violated without repercussions for decades and continue to be. Lane Kiffin made a commitment to an entire roster that he would lead them this season. Just before their playoff birth, he has bolted for another university for his own personal gain. How do the players litigate that? They can't; they just have to accept it and hope they have the right coaching still around to lead them to success. Should they bow out early, who knows if Kiffin would've made rhe difference. Who knows what a deep playoff run or even national championship could do to transform their lives. How is that measured in "liquidated damages" for the players? Fact is, in can't be. College athletics are lawless. Resolve that before sending messages by taking exorbitant money out of players' pockets that the University isn't out themselves.

You're too focused on this being Georgia that you're missing the bigger picture. I'm arguing if there is no real penalty for players breaching their contract they will just continue to do it if it just means they will get 550k at Missouri vs 450k they already agreed to at Georgia (not exactly certain what Missouri paid, but plugged in a number to illustrate a point). I do agree 100% is steep, but something in the neighborhood of 25%-50% seems more reasonable. There needs to be something in place to discourage the player or compensate for the breach. Without it these NIL deals might as well be written on toilet paper.

I'm not arguing the breach of contract. I'm arguing the gross greed by Georgia.

Interesting on a couple levels, Joe isn’t going to UConn and now Toledo will be looking for a new head coach
