Entering his junior season, Moore is slated to start for Dan Lanning's squad after transferring into...

Ya know, Parity has pushed the SEC aside in the CFP too. The last two years SEC wasn't even in the Natty game, and the Natty went to the B1G! Yes, the Gators did win "March Madness". but football, keep your 8 Games SEC, the B1G will just keep on keeping on.

Among the thousands of CFB preseason prognosticators, Phil Steele is usually the real deal. Phil Steele praises Penn State and projects a title-winning season VICTORYBELLRINGS.COM Phil Steele has high hopes for the Penn State Nittany Lions, and not only in the Big Ten. Whereas Ohio State triumphed to its first College Football Playoff cha Phil is far from the only playoff picker to be high on PSU. Yes, a quality new DC is on board, but isn't it the same old head coach and a pick-throwing QB? Week 5, OBD gets an upfront and personal look at the Nits.

In this CWS, Parity has replaced SEC. Talk of power conferences taking over the College World Series was premature judging by 2025 field APNEWS.COM Six conferences and an independent will be represented at the College World Series. None were among the final eight in Omaha a year ago. The dominant conference would have been the former and real Pac-12. Not the Pac-7 plus Gonzo. Arizona, Oregon State, and UCLA. How did 'THEY' screw 'THIS' up?

Again, the Title IX appeal has not put payments on hold. The Title IX plaintiffs will not be 'irreparably' damaged if revenue sharing payments begin. If the appeal is successful, monetary damages will adequately compensate the plaintiffs (and their lawyers ). 'Clarity' regarding this settlement is akin to 'commitment' in the world of football recruiting. The road ahead after the NCAA settlement comes with risk, reward and warnings APNEWS.COM The annual National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics convention this week included a very hot topic: The $2.8 billion NCAA antitrust settlement.

With his long relationship with Douglas, I'm not too worried about the strength of his commitment.

Not sure how much difference it would make to the number of foul shots but I doubt it would make a noticeable difference since shooting fouls are still two shots and a lot of whistles are blown for those, whenever they are called. It could have an impact at the end of the game with teams more often having to commit more intentional unintentional fouls to get a shot at make the ending closer or grabbing the lead. I never really paid much attention to the women's game in this regard and the NBA has their own version of when foul shots are attempted in the fourth quarter. The NBA doing it is no reason to follow as I don't want the college game looking like what they play. The women have four q''s because we know "they don't have the stamina" to play 20 minute halves.

Hope the young man's 'commitment' holds up; it helps to have a Messiah in the locker room.

Probably just waiting to line up the sales staff

Round and round the wheel went and Messiah Hampton stopped it at Oregon. A potential WR1 and a solid guy in the room

I'm sorry, lame excuse, "The committee realizes there are hurdles to implementing the quarter format to the game, including the structuring of media timeouts to accommodate commercial inventory." Makes zero sense, since the college women use quarters and the WNBA and NBA use quarters. Quarters are way better IMO, simply because of fouls. 20-minute halves can bog down the game because of the amount of FTs.

UPDATE: Oregon Football could FLIP Boise State QB commit Bryson Beaver, Ryder Lyons still in the mix? After failing to land 5-star #1 QB Jared Curtis (Georgia) the Ducks have made overtures to land a 2026 signal caller.

Halves vs. Quarters? If anyone cares, I don't care one way or he other. It does seem though that the game flow would be really choppy introjecting another break for the Quarter at the 10 minute mark with breaks already coming at the 8:00 and 12:00 points in a half.

I'm so tempted to hit Rutgers but my snacks would be whole lot more expensive. I'd probably have to re-budget for two nights in a motel and, worst of all, I'd have to either drive through NYC twice or wedge into an airline seat a couple of times. God invented the big screen TV for a reason and I don't want to seem ungrateful.

nor does continuing with halve defy logic, only economics. I'm fine either way and will continue watching. Hardly matters in regard to the score. My temperature has not risen since the subject came up. I checked.

Check the mirror. Can't imagine many would come up with a Yes. It's been more than 20 years since I placed a bet, though I might if the local casino started up a sports book. Betting is a whole differet thing than rooting.. Either can be taken too far or just remain a pastime. Subject seems almost like clickbait. I guess I nibbled a little.

When title IX was decided, it was all about scholarships. Nobody got paid anything except tuition, room and board and books. It made sense that there should be equal numbers of them in institutions where the populations were kind of Co-ed in somewhat equal proportions. In response, I'm a little surprised schools didn't go back to the old Ivy League pattern or even their new one. Programs were dropped and I can't recall lawsuits fighting back against that. The only things necessary were balance and the conference requirement for a minimum number of sports. Where those requirements will end up now will be an interesting (or not) story and it could be a bedtime story for the NCAA. Things have changed just a little bit since then so it's probably not out of line to revisit the whole issue, and I'm sure it will be ad nauseum. Fairness the previous driving force is going to found in a morgue, far from the bus that hit it. Once again programs may die but this time the result will be a lot of billable hours. Fans are not going to have any input nor are we going to enjoy the result. Can it become "I'm going to take my ball and play somewhere else!"? The tumult and the directions it could go are worthy of a series of Vegas lines.
