ESPN made the call. They want the OM story line for the next week.

The solution will be what ever makes ESPN the most money.
How many Billions has ESPN made on the backs of college athletes? Yet, they conveniently forget to criticize themselves.

At this rate, why would the players agree to any kind of restrictions. They hold all the cards.
Also, I’m not a lawyer or anything, but how would a CBA work if more than half of your union is turned over every 2-3 years? Could newer players sue that they weren’t represented when CBA was agreed to when they become the majority of players?

He won’t get away with his running antics in the League. Let him stay at OP if he gets another year. Give me Lev or Sorsby.

It’s really sad we have gotten to the point of announcing returning for year 2.

This isn't going to stop. They are going to burn it all down if something isn't changed and the NCAA gets control of this. it isn't sustainable. This is just like a big city.....they will destroy any and everything good....for short-term gain.I think this has a lot to do with the softness we are seeing out there from a lot of players. Many are simply not hungry anymore.
Don’t hold your breath. One reason the NCAA hasn’t done anything is because every rule they had has been taken to court based on the “it’s not fair” argument. It’s just a matter of time when the “House Settlement” provision for the NIL Clearinghouse is challenged. I’ve heard there are already lawyers writing briefs for a lawsuit.
I love CFB, but there has to be a middle ground for NIL/Rev Share and building depth and year to year continuity.
re: The Case to reduce Present Bowl System
Posted by Bumble Bee on 12/30/25 at 10:27 am to LSU Tiger Eyes
In 1990, there was only like 18 Bowl games. ESPN created a majority of these bowl games for I’m sure content on their expanding platform; ESPN2, ESPNU, etc.
Then a short 10 years later after over saturating the market, they turned their attention to the BCS and the pursuit of an ever expanding playoff and pushing the narratives that the only thing that matters is the playoff and that Bowl Games are meaningless and players shouldn’t play if they have a future.
Every issue or problem in sports has a direct link to an ESPN directive or talking point. What ever the “world wide leader” wants, it eventually gets.

Pretty sure the NCAA changed some rules regarding NIL. Can’t just pay a backup qb half a million anymore. Each deal over $600 goes thru a vetting process to make sure it’s the players actual value. How they are going to do that who knows, but I think some of these guys jumping in may be in for rude awakening.
While I love this change, I’m sure there are attorneys just waiting to sue the NCAA over this.

Y’all do realize LSU isn’t the only team shopping in the portal. Just because you want 5 OL, QB, RBs, etc doesn’t mean you will be all of them. 2 year rebuild.

If they are getting paid NIL/Rev Share, they should be required to play.
I understood the opt out before they pay for play. Now, you can’t take the cash, and choose not to play.

re: Bring back the computers
Posted by Bumble Bee on 12/7/25 at 11:24 am to mule74
This was the exact reason the BCS was created, to take human bias out of the equation for the rankings. Until ESPN didn’t get the matchups they wanted. Then the argument shifted to “the eye test” that computer can’t provide. Taking us back to human bias.
With the playoffs, I wish they would return to the ORIGINAL BCS computer formula, where SoS mattered. Have the computers spit out the Top 12/16 (No More).

re: Coaches getting fewer years to prove themselves is more common

Just because it can be done, a lot more goes into winning and building a program than just portal players. Every team is doing the same thing and to win a championship it takes a little bit of luck. I feel like you still need to give a coach 3-4 years.

The crazy part of that story is they gave him a CD of all the plays but left it blank intentionally to see if he would watch it. Came to practice and told them he watched it and he the knew the plays. They knew they were fricked.
I heard they taped a $100 bill on the last page of the playbook.

Also, Bama is not better job than LSU. LSU and Bama are on par as the same level of job. Before Saban got there, Bama was not the program they are today and will it reach that level again.

I can’t think of a better coach for LSU than a guy with the nickname of “Drink”.
