GeotechDuck No. 2 Share Posted November 21 One of my biggest joys in life right now is watching USC circling the drain. What a great year. 2 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Joseph Moderator No. 3 Share Posted November 21 USC did poach a 5* QB from A+M so it's kind of a push plus. A So Cal kid, Husan Longstreet, who is higher rated than the 'SC commit' headed to CU. If a kid or his agent can read the tea leaves, why go anywhere other than a Power 2 school? Only 4 B12 teams to date have said they are all in on the House Settlement required $20M a year direct payment to athletes. If you don't ante up say goodbye to the B1G and the SEC Boys. UNC, FSU, Miami, and Clemson are good to go in the ACC, but Wake, BC, VA Tech? The Grapevine says that all B1G schools including NW are on board and the same with the SEC including Vandy. At CU, this kid could end up playing in the Pac-12/Mountain West. The young man's agent is playing CFB checkers and not chess. With rosters capped at 105 and scholarships capped, there is no certainty that there will be room in the P2 Inn if the B12 and ACC fall apart. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haywarduck No. 4 Share Posted November 21 At CU he could end up playing for another head coach. Deion turned Jackson State around and left. He has now turned CU around and his kid is graduating, nothing keeping him in Boulder after this season. Travis Hunter will be gone too. I wonder if Deion gave him a promise to stay, but what is that worth? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ACC will be broken to pieces and sold off to the P2 with a conference of leftovers left for the media scraps. The Big 12 is already the conference of leftovers. The best hope of any Big 12 team right now is to look pretty enough to get an invite in the next realignment. Probably won't happen. They'll be given enough money for the purpose of filler games. 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
