Tyler Van Dyke at 11 again shows how myopic B1G fans are. Chiles was a good pick-up for Sparty but isn't close to Van Dyke's starting QB experience. Dylan Riola has yet to take a CFB snap. The Michigan QB did not attempt a pass last season. Dillon at No.1 is righteous. MSU QB Aidan Chiles ranked among best in Big Ten SPARTANSWIRE.USATODAY.COM New Spartans starting quarterback Aidan Chiles is considered one of the best in the Big Ten

Oregon State will be an Independent in baseball in 2025. Rob Mullens will probably schedule a home-and-home series with the Beavers.

He would have had superb coverage on the Clueless Watchers and Pac (It Up) Networks. Martinez will likely double his money. Miami is desperate for an RB to pair up with another Pac-2 departee, Cam Ward.

On the NFL site, draft guru Chad Reuter goes 5-deep. New B1G - 47 total picks. New SEC - 53 total picks. Ducks - Bo Nix - 23 Vikings JPJ - 51 - Steelers Troy Franklin - 67 Commanders Brandon Dorlus - 88 Packers K Jackson - 97 Bengals Bucky Irving - 169 - Packers Five-round 2024 NFL mock draft: Saints load up with four picks in Round 5 WWW.NFL.COM In his third mock of the 2024 NFL Draft -- a five-rounder! -- Chad Reuter projects the Saints to select quartet of players in the fifth round, including one playmaker for their backfield.

I posted this article on the B1G comment site that NJ Duck set up and he does a great job keeping OBD fans up to date on the B1G, but I believe this article by Mandel deserves a separate post. The majority of off-season prognosticators project the 2024 B1G Championship to come down to a Battle of the Os; Oregon vs. Ohio State. Ohio State has a far easier schedule than OBD in 2024, in and out of conference, but Oregon gets Ohio State at home on October 12th. This game should feature two undefeated teams and could be the marquee game on a weekend of great games: Texas vs. Oklahoma; Ole Miss at LSU; and Penn State at USC. A clarification: Will Howard was the All-B12 QB in 2022. Dillon Gabriel was the All-B12 QB in 2023 with Howard finishing 2nd. Ohio State was a B1G time recruiting machine before it moved its NIL game up to the level of Division Street. Will the Ducks be able to wrest conference supremacy from Brutus? I know Michigan has had Ohio State's number for the last three seasons but I think Ohio State will turn the tables in 2024, and defeat the Wolverines in Columbus. The Battle of the Os could turn into one of college football's B1Ggest rivalries. After an embarrassing Cotton Bowl loss, Ohio State donors went on a spending spree THEATHLETIC.COM Ending the Michigan drought will be a baseline expectation for an Ohio State team stacked with talent and experience.

I thought that baseball was going to try to play as an Independent. Did Oregon State baseball go in this direction? I think it would be hard to fill out a schedule.

The guy left for $300K+. A huge pay bump while working in a city that has a cost of living 25% lower than that of Eugene. He was leaving even if Danno called him Vince, Knute, or Saint Nick. "You can call me Ray JJ. Or, you can call me RJJ Jr., but you doesn't hasta call me Johnson."

See you in 2025. Likely in White Out conditions.

Cristobal needs an RB or 2 and I am certain that he is whispering in the young man's ear that he will have the chance to start as a true frosh.

Send in the Saint Bernard's! As 'avalanche' hits NCAA and paying players debate continues, change is coming THEATHLETIC.COM With players allowed to generate income off their NIL, employment is the last step in the blurry barrier between amateur and pro sports. Linfield, Bowdoin, and Pittsburgh State have an NCAA vote. Linfield College does not have the same issues as Oregon, a school offering athletic scholarships and watched by millions worldwide. The Power 4 has to be able to regulate without needing the approval of D3 and G5 programs. I disagree with the author. The NCAA goes away and big-time college football will contract and not expand. The Super League will be the Power 2 bankrolled by Fox and Friends and ESPN.
