Will NIL Bring Back the Meaning of Bowl Season?
Hard to legislate bowl requirements. NIL people may want a healthy pro, so they could add to the problem.

Would You Want Him in Your Foxhole?
I think I read that Travis dye took the lineman out to dinner to break his news that he was leaving. I hope that it is true and that he used his SC Mastercard to pay.

Beavers Like Rats from a Sinking Ship

Pac-12 Offices are Going "Remote"
I wonder if the savings/"payout" to each school will be the same as a NY6 bowl game. And, another parting shot at Larry. Thanks George.

The Temporary Nature of 2022 College Football
Alex you ask "Do you believe it’ll settle once the nation has grown accustomed to the new NIL regulations, or has the NFL’s superstar empowerment movement put us past the point of no return?" "Settle" is an interesting word. I do not think things will settle down, I think new wrinkles will continue to develop and we will grow accustom to unsettling. And Yes, we are past the point of no return with player power in college football. We have survived it in the pros (for those who still watch) and now will learn to survive it in college or just turn off the damn TV (Amazon prime reading anyone?). Lastly, I really hope we NEVER see the refs protect the star players like they do in the pros (I'm looking at 3 and 1/2 steps in basketball without traveling calls unless you're an unproven rookie, and Tom Brady not being allowed to fall on his ash without a flag). As of now we already see it in regard to refs being afraid of some coaches so those teams get favorable calls.

As Charles Barkley Would Say, "The Pac-12 Network is Turrible!"
Sounds like the Pac 12 Network is just the same as ESPN ...... in 1979. A fun read on Wikipedia for those who weren't around at the inception/conception.

Bo Nix Working Hard Already...
Or, does enrolling without playing a down in a game allow another free transfer? And then will accepting NIL $ count as playing in games if your NIL $ is tied to your school? So many questions, so few brain cells to come up with answers.

Each Oregon Football Player Earned at Least 15K Last Year
So now, take 15K per 85 scholarship FB players, and the $723 avg will shrink substantially for the "rest" of the FKA (formerly known as) student athletes. Plus, I think Sedona Prince is well into 6 figures.

Each Oregon Football Player Earned at Least 15K Last Year
The following is a Q and then answer to a Duck Territory Quack Chat: Q: With subpar NIL can Oregon compete with the likes of the SEC, SC? A: Yes. They don't have subpar NIL. Division Street isn't spending money like monopoly money. They are doing it stratgeically. Do we forget that KT got a United Airlines deal last year? Or that all of the football players made over 15K this year for shoes that were sold, and in that process all of Oregon's other athletes in other sports got cash. We know that the women's program has been getting deals with the Pape Group as well. So, I'm sure without guarantees, FB recruits are going to be aware of the 15K and the POSSIBILITY of more.
