Yeh, if our QB's will get the ball to him with any regularity.

Wasn’t he the one that changed from TCU at the very end of recruiting several years ago?
Yes. When Sonny came, Hudson flipped and then Golden switched to UH.

The days of recruiting talent and developing them for a year two in order to build a program and consistency are dead. You are going from year to year with turnover at key starting and depth positions.
No loyalties or commitments other than to the dollar.
College football, it was fun and was nice knowing you.

Seriously, it’s not even fun or interesting anymore. I honestly couldn’t care less who comes and goes, they’ll change their mind and be gone in a few months or a year anyway. We’ll have a team next year and if we suck, oh well, I guess we didn’t spend enough or something.
I feel like this sport caters to the lowest denominator of sports fan now. Feel like a sucker almost for even paying attention anymore. I sure as heck am not going to spend money on it.

And if you have a player who's already transferred once and is close to graduating, you should consider finding an administrative error that leaves him a couple credits shy.

Free agency going to ruin MLB, NFL, NBA and now college football.

Quoting this from a recruiting thread but putting it here. Apparently a recent decommit from Oregon.
As long as you like pro sports it’s fine. But it’s no longer college football.
So the fact that there is no salary cap, no draft, and 1 year contracts doesn’t make college football a bit different?

If anything, it seems like free agency has increased interest in big 3 sports.
I see very few people under 40 complaining about no loyalties in sports, instead they’re happy & engaged when their team has a chance to get significantly better in a single year.
Just look how quickly the CU fan base came back on line with a massive display of support for their team.
Huge difference. They coupled free agency with a salary cap, salary floors, a heavy tax on teams that exceed the cap in cases where it's not a hard cap, etc etc etc. All the leagues have a draft, not open recruiting. MLB teams control players until they are about 28 years old. The NFL has minimum 4-year contracts for rookies. Something similar for the NBA. The result is a much more competitive landscape and parity and more engaged fan bases. The NFL, the most popular league of them all, has almost complete parity.
It wasn't free agency that made these leagues more popular. It was all the other stuff that went along with it. College football has none of that.
