That's well refined. I do that after about 30 seconds of exertion!

We should honestly rename the walk on try outs as "The search for the next Enrique Freeman"

You are almost 💯 correct. They could play on those Saturdays, but they would forego their anti-trust exemption. I guess the question then becomes, would that matter? The NFL is the #1 TV show in the USA. Drunks and degenerate gamblers can't get enough.

To make more money. Why wouldn't they do it if they could ? What would change?

What you really need to work on is your puke in the trash can game!

Returning Minutes: Sharron Young - what leap can he take as a Sophomore? Returning Redshirt: Rich Brisco - does he have the ability and athleticism to go with the 6'8" 240 lbs frame? Newcomer: Big Stank - how does his game transition to the US?

1) Hopefully we remain healthy, but injuries are typically inevitable. The depth we have really protects against the problems last year's team faced when Harris went down early in the season. 2) If we thought last year's pace was crazy, wait until this year. We're more athletic, more lethal from 3, and bigger. Being 12 deep, we're going to have hockey line changes.

Walk-on tryouts are 8 AM to 9 AM on the 18th. I need to start working on my shot.

You and GP1 both have valid points here. I think the scales begin to tip when the "minor" league's revenue is on par with the major league, which it is becoming due to consolidation and concentration of the big name schools/programs. At the very least, NFL owners have taken notice.

He's showing now. Roster size is at 16

LOL. Brain fart. I was thinking Tom Osborne.

College Football-------------->NFL The Big Ten's current TV deal is a seven-year, approximately $7 billion agreement with Fox, CBS, and NBC that began in the 2023 season. Ohio State makes $12 - $15 million a home game. So the OSU AD can definitely talk that talk.

I just saw a post about walk on tryouts. Kind of leads me to believe both are gone, Serb will get one scholarship, and we have one walk on spot to fill.

Why would an old Sooner coach come out of a Nebraska tunnel?

Why would you do that to your free minor league?

I would like to see Young get more minutes.

That would be cool if the Akron players could have found the end zone

Classic Zips. Do they not think a better connection with Akron football could have been facilitated by putting the kids in the Akron endzone and the kids interacting with Akron players?

the most exciting returner is Amani Lyles: he improved so much last season I think he could do it again this off season especially with the 3 pointer. the most exciting new guy is probably Evan Mahaffey, how does his game translate to mid major play. The big problem this season is I think we have 12 guys that would play serious minutes at other Mac schools. How in the world is everyone going to stay happy with maybe only playing 15 minutes or less. Groce has a good problem but I still think it is a problem.

it's gonna take me a while to figure out which Mahaffey is which

The Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961 prevents them from doing it. Otherwise they would have already done it.

Did anyone else see the OSU Athletic Director on CNBC this morning talking about the business of college athletics? The sleaze dripping off the guy was noticable to the point I think the interviewers picked up on it. He did some bragging about the TV ratings for the Texas game. 16.6 million people watched the game. I wonder if the NFL owners noticed and are licking their chops for those viewers. NFL games draw between 17 and roughly 30 million per game. If I was the NFL, I would start with driving college football out of the Saturday prime time games and then work my way earlier into the day. I'd bankrupt college football with a better product that people have more of an appetite for.

Bud Wilkerson and Johnny Rodgers are not coming out of that tunnel.

Earlier in the off season it was Eric Mahaffey but over the last couple of weeks the Serb has really piqued my interest. Groce is gonna have his work cut out for him experimenting with all the potential lineups. He probably won't play much this year but wait till you get a load of Josh Henderson 🔥🔥

Number 13 Gardner Webb got a 1-0 road win tonight at number 6 West Virginia Number 4 Indiana earned a 1-0 win at home over number 16 St. Louis.
