If Landon really wants to go to Texas, as it appears he is heavily leaning... then he'll have 4 other DB recruits(3 are 4*s) in this clsss to pal around with.

You said “Ed Oliver.” I heard “John Oliver.” Could not figure what you

lol - i guess that rules out "wide" receiver....

This just took an interesting turn! Slot receivers, wide receivers, tight ends are all very valuable. I’d love to see all of them…get a chance.

oh the irony if he does sign with the frogs along with biddle

I went and liked a tweet of his. Just doing my part

Gru needs to change that Twitter address if he’s gonna keep making appearances in our mentions.

Samson is tagging Gru in his TCU offer above so that seems to indicate he’s the guy.

This one appears gone.

[FrogCop19]

I'm not sure, but I think college football might suck now.

It kinda does.

I've simply lost interest in recruiting, the transfer portal, coaching moves, etc. What's the point? Everything is so temporary anyway, just a bunch of 18-20 year olds chasing "deals", and coaches making obscene amounts of money doing the same. Used to be interesting and fun watching teams build rosters and develop over time, now that part of it is basically over. Whoever shows up on the sideline next September, I'm sure I'll watch and see if they are any good, but the passion for it is basically gone.

We're gonna have about 40 bowl games being played over the next 3 weeks and I'm not sure anyone (players included) really cares who wins any of them. Think about that. The games are secondary to all the tweeting, posing, and social media crap, and who is going where and what kind of deals they are being offered.

It's becoming very overrated, bordering on awful, entertainment, at least for me. Maybe the next generation will love this stuff.

I agree with a lot of what you said; however, regarding recruiting/transfers, I believe these new changes have actually added to the importance/drama.
With the increasing number of players going thru the transfer portal, we’re actually watching teams put together as much as 30% of their next year‘s starting lineup. …..and their doing it under pressure on the fly.
There’s a lot at stake.

 

[This Ain't Chopped Liver]

It was not long ago that fans enjoyed college football without the internet. Imagine that.

Why is there so much at stake? Hardly anyone cares who actually wins games anymore.

So much at stake because all the money involved? I'm never going to see any of it, why should I care?

But now we can obsess, how is that not better?
