Way too low. If LSU would've been #3, it still might've been way too low.

No one in their right mind saw Week 1 action and thought LSU was the 8th best team.
The Big 10 was sync'd up to the stadium clock.

NBC used their own clock. Why? Who the frick knows. I'm old enough to remember when broadcasts had a picture-in-picture camera insert of the actual stadium clock and would sometimes shake when the stadium was rocking.

But Michigan deserves the backlash for their pitiful performance. They are frauds. So, you may continue...

Let's not bury Ahmad Hardy.

When Hardy returns this month, he'll have an actual QB to loosen up the 8-man box that he was already getting 300 yards against.
It was 2014. Bama vs LSU in OT. Lane had one of the best designed plays I've ever seen to this day.

Lane lined up a large TE at LT. Then he split out the RT like a TE in the slot. When the play is snapped, the RT (faux TE) doesn't go up field (cuz he's not eligible to run routes) but fakes like he's waiting for a pass. Then on the other side, the TE (faux LT) takes off down the field wide open/uncovered bc the LBs think he is an LT and catches the ball down to the one which sets up the game-winning TD.

Brilliant play design and, unfortunately, perfectly timed. As hard as LSU played that night, I knew then Lane simply out-coached us.


At the 13:34 mark:
I'm even seeing a bit of Auburn's Bo Nix.
Toney is a Tyreek Hill kinda weapon. Pretty much unstoppable.
I heard it was supposed to be 24 hours before your first game, thus 6:30 pm today. (???)
Yes, I am in favor of LSU rostering 105 players that get paid to play football, signed a contract to get that money, and hired an agent to handle their business. Players LSU has rostered since 2021. You know, professionals.

A professional athlete is a person who competes in sports for financial compensation, such as a salary, wages, or prize money, rather than as a hobby.

Core Characteristics

Compensation: Earns money through performance, team contracts, sponsorships, or prizes.

Training: Dedicates major time to physical conditioning, skill practice, and strategy.

Competition: Participates in organized, official athletic events.


So, just as I figured, there's no difference between all three levels of NFL, CFB, or HS bluechips. None of those are "hobbies" by amateurs.

Can someone define "professional"?

Do you have to get paid to play a sport?
Do you have to sign a contract/sponsorship to get paid?
Do you have to have an agent?

If so, I'm having trouble finding what's the actual difference between NFL, CFB and HS Bluechips.

There must be a reason, other than depth, CLK is looking to add Tuihalamaka & Pyburn.

Those moves would suggest Ross so far hasn't developed like they hoped, with additional evidence of Carpenter passing him by.
Speaking of 5 for 5, I haven't seen anyone pour one out for the NCAA Record Books.

Pete Maravich (points), Caitlyn Clark (points), Case Keenum (yards), (Dillon Gabriel (TDs), Pete Incaviglia (HRs), John Powell (K's), etc...could be all erased from the books in as soon as 5 years from now.
Bring him to the TRO department. They can explain the process of how he can still get 4 more years with tGeneral should he test the G-League in 2028 .
quote:

I wonder how many players from 22 class, that are covered by TROs are still on nfl rosters going into cut day? Bet it isn’t that many.

I think it's about 150 players so far that are currently named in the 18 various TROs around the country (both NFL tryouts & undrafted non-campers). There's supposed to be a shitload more TROs filed this coming week that could bring the total to approx 300 players seeking to return to college.
I know Bo Jackson was drafted #1 overall by the Bucs but refused to play for them (ouch!). Then the next year, he was drafted by the Raiders with a late throwaway pick, and became one the GOAT RBs. So re-drafting is a thing.

But he sat out a year & never went to camp with the Bucs.

"NFL (preseason) sack leader"

I love the sound of that.

(I still have no idea what that gesture is about.)

I thought I read it was called The Zombie, but apparently it's called "The Stinky Celly" (aka celebration). One of the LSU wbkb girls did it. It supposedly is used to say a move was nasty...and/or the opponent stinks.
