He's being paid more NIL money at MIA than he was by the Badgers. This was a case of Tampering with a capital T. I'm happy that the B1G conference supports this litigation. If you can walk away from a contract for more money and not pay liquidated damages, as we see when coaches leave one school for another, what's to prevent a player from transferring in-season to an opponent his former team has not yet played? Or, simply leave his sinking ship for the chance to play on a playoff contender? All the new school has to do is be willing to enroll the player. If you read Ross Dellinger's article on the matter on Yahoo (I posted this article yesterday on B1G Info, Predictions), one worrisome issue here is that the NCAA has arguably approved such transfers notwithstanding a contract being in place. Why would the NCAA being on the wrong side of an issue surprise anyone? The further rub in this case is that these pre-House Settlement approval direct payment contracts were the norm and not the exception. Schools with half-decent legal representation will have ensured that a player had the agreement approved by an attorney before signing, and had a parent or guardian sign for the player if he was under the age of consent. How do you think Cristobal and Miami would feel if they were on the flip side of this issue? Miami will, of course, move to dismiss and also move to have the case transferred from Wisconsin state court to federal court. I don't think the case will be dismissed out of hand, but a transfer to federal court is likely. College Football needs more chaos, right?

The other silver lining. It doesn't matter before signing day. Many of these 'Lost Boys' will likely be available on the round before signing day or out of the portal..

Yeah, I thought it was a baseball school?

I will spin it the other way, the long time fan whiffed on the Ducks. USC is recruiting with a blank check, "Hey kid, how much is it gonna take?" That is not a strategy even if the player had to stay with the Trojans. He doesn't of course which has USC living up to the adage, "A fool and his money are soon parted"

The only silver lining in this is that we have some excellent young DBs and a couple of DB commits already. So probably doesn’t hurt too bad. Same with the DB that just committed to Notre Dame. Where are the OL guys in 2026? That’s my big concern right now. We don’t want to be USC and have 22 DBs on the roster and no linemen.

What does Oregon need to do to finish in the top 3? Oregon Ducks' Dan Lanning To Sign Top-3 Recruiting Class? WWW.SI.COM The Oregon Ducks have certainly had an up and down recruiting year for the class of 2026. On Thursday, five-star cornerback Brandon Arrington committed to Texas

Yep, They're trying to claim 5-3 in the SEC is like going 11-1 in the ACC or Big 12. Funny how South Carolina, one of those bubble teams, almost always loses to a real playoff contender in Clemson. Any guess why the SEC rarely schedules OOC teams capable of defeating them? It's a joke. The SEC has leverage because their fans are far more glued to their games than the rest of the country. Let's be real though. Illinois beat South Carolina. Michigan outclassed Bama. It's been that way during bowl season for years. But somehow, the SEC really believes they are deeper than the B1G. Show us in the regular season SEC. Tuck away your two to three games that gets you closer to 10 wins and play OOC teams that are threats to your record. I didn't see Illinois and Michigan pulling upsets last year, but I'm not surprised given that the vaunted SEC schedule only confirms they play each other tough because they're so familiar with each other. All the SEC has done is proven their propaganda narrative works. It doesn't hold up in the postseason - but it sure works wonders in the regular season. I still remember Les Miles calling out Pete Carrol the year they shared a title. But he didn't dare schedule him. Because ole Pete owned the SEC. And Miles knew it. Right now, the middle of the B1G is clearly as deep as the SEC. After all USC did defeat LSU last year didn't they? That's why the SEC avoids competition in the regular season.

Guy apparently likes to coach. A college head coaching position seems like a big headache for a former NFL Coach. The professional relationship he refers too … she is his “part time COO” of Belichick Productions. HBO reported that they scrapped a Hard Knocks series of North Carolina football after demands from Jordan Hudson were deemed unreasonable. Apparently, she can’t sit quietly during an interview of her “boss”, Bill Belichick. Too funny.

UNC has a football team???

This had to come at some point for sure. This case I think is one of the more blant instances of roster tampering. The article was unclear but kinda implied by "able to compete" is Lucas a preferred walk on or is he on scholarship at Miami. It doesn't really matter in truth because walk ons can be paid enough that they are effectively on scholarship these days anyways. I could see that getting thrown into the case though if that is what happened. He left Wisconsin and went to Miami and became a walk on for their football team... Who could have seen that coming???

"In a first-of-its-kind and, perhaps, a precedent-setting move, Wisconsin is seeking unspecified financial damages and a declaratory judgement deeming UM’s actions as wrongful for interfering with a binding revenue-share contract between UW and Xavier Lucas, a former defensive back who left the program in January to compete at Miami." "It was a groundbreaking decision in which Lucas transferred without entering the portal (it had already closed) and after signing the contract with the Badgers." Wisconsin files suit against Miami for poaching Xavier Lucas while he was under contract with school SPORTS.YAHOO.COM In a landmark moment in college athletics, one university has filed suit against another over tortious interference, according to documents obtained by Yahoo Sports. CFB has provided ANOTHER new revenue source for attorneys!

She's also doing her job when she whispers in Bill's hearing aid, 'Nothing is off limits!' How about when the Tar Heels walked from two decades of academic fraud because not just athletes but also 'regular students' were cheating. Compare this to USC getting hammered for one guy going out of bounds. Compare the Tar Heels' hall pass to OBD losing scollies because Chip used outside help with recruiting. The Horror! My UNC golfing buddies are not happy campers.

“Jordon and I have both a personal & professional relationship,” Emails provide glimpse into how Bill Belichick handled fallout from Jordon Hudson's viral moment in CBS interview SPORTS.YAHOO.COM Belichick said that Hudson was "simply doing her job" when she said that a question about how they met was off-limits.

Charles & Co. need to sneak in some green shirts.

$900,000 worth of contention.

Darren, definitely your article is worst case scenario. Glad you are a fictional writer!

Not the end of the world as we know it. Charles going to Montlake and losing, now that is the end of the world. And would certainly lead to his banishment to all future away games.

For the Apple Cup the game was played at Lumen Field, home of the Seahawks.

1. S Dillon Thieneman, 93 overall The Purdue transfer has delivered back-to-back seasons with more than 100 tackles and is expected to be a future NFL first-round draft pick - even at a position that traditionally carries slightly less value than premium spots (quarterback, offensive tackle, edge-rusher, etc.) He did all that at Purdue.

U.W. lost to WSU 24 to 19 at home on Sept. 14th last season, so they are now proud owners of a 4 game home winning streak. I know because I celebrate Husky losses almost as much as Duck wins (maybe even a bit more!). Go Ducks!

When you're in The Black, you deserve to come back.

Oregon Can’t Win the Big One? Dan Lanning Changes EVERYTHING

EA Sports College Football 26 doesn't release for a few more weeks (July 10), but that hasn't stopped TeamCrafters and internet sleuths from finding the early rankings. While unconfirmed and unofficial, the players ratings for this years' game certainly appear to be right on track with what college football fans can expect. So, who are the top Oregon Ducks in this year's game? Top 10 Oregon Ducks in EA Sports NCAA football video game WWW.SPORTINGNEWS.COM Who are the top Oregon Ducks in upcoming college football video game?

The whole system of Oregon athletics is working great right now. I'd say basketball might need some coaching changes in the near-ish future if things don't improve for men's and women's basketball. But hard to argue with results when Oregon led the B1G in conference championships in year one by a wide margin.
