Those who talk, don't know. Those who know, don't talk.

Nothing official yet from Gavin Nix.

I guess Scott Frost was wrong?

These coaches work so hard and do such a good job, 24/7/365.

Now, they’re both signed!

Yeah, neither Offord nor the Hawaiian QB have appeared yet on the Go Ducks page. So, just words at this point.

Did he predict that if PSU could score more points than the Ducks, they would win?

Someone needs to learn how to spell "qualify". Put the "u" after the "q', always.

Maybe the tv commentators can be persuaded that Bo has another brother.

So, I have a dumb question: how does NIL actually work on the ground? Can a collective simply give a player money and say, "there you go"? Or does the player's name, image or likeness have to appear somewhere? Like Quinn Ewers in the Dr. Pepper spot. Are there any rules, and who made them? In other words, does a player have to do something for the money, and if so, what? Anyone know?

It's the lack of coaching-ality at Miami that changed his mind.

I don't even know who the ladies and gentlemen of the committee are. And, I am light-years away from being a credible college football analyst. That said, I think it's clear that the committee has a thankless and virtually unsolvable problem on its hands with this season. Aside from a certain team out west, this season is all about chaos, forehead-smacking results, and maybe some kind of parity. The portal, NIL, conference realignment, even the 12-team playoff have produced seismic changes and upset the college football apple cart like never before. It's a brave, and (to me, anyway) welcome, new world that some programs, like that of a certain team out west, are dynamic enough to chart a path through. But, it leaves the playoff committee in the position of pissing off a record number of people, no matter what they do. Strength of record, strength of schedule, won-lost records, eyeball test? Sure. But, the end result will be endless debates about who got in and who was left out. I mean, who would you pick, and why? The committee can't win with a season like this one. And maybe in seasons to come if this is the new normal. Yay, parity. The only thing that will raise my ire will be if they lard the meaty playoffs roster with an extra helping of fat from the SEC. Good luck, committee.

Winning begets winning.
