The Evil Genius Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 3 minutes ago, China said: Why is it so many teams put out a black uniform when their colors aren't black. Michigan State did it last year as well, as have many other schools (Ohio State, Florida, Tennessee, Oregon, etc.). Is it because marketing people think black uniforms are super cool and badass? I suspect they sell well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing footage of the disorganized locker room strewn with cluttered shoes, joggers, and other items, Deion Sanders confronted Shedeur & Co., stating, “So we know whose locker those were, correct? Yes, but we’re a team, correct? So all of us are going to pay for that. It’s our house… Some of you were raised like that. Your parents let you get down like that? I am not one of those parents. So we’re going to take care of that after practice today.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ixcuincle Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/39967961/virginia-law-allows-schools-pay-athletes-nil Schools in Virginia will be able to directly pay athletes via name, image and likeness deals thanks to a state law signed Thursday morning, marking another significant step in the professionalization of college sports. The new law, which is scheduled to take effect July 1, is the first in any state to make it illegal for the NCAA to punish a school for compensating athletes for their NIL rights. Current NCAA rules prohibit schools from signing NIL deals with their own players. The law could either give Virginia schools a significant recruiting advantage or provide a catalyst for similar changes elsewhere. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Has nobody mentioned the WVU commit at LB? Or, did I miss it? Apparently RGIII had some good marketing advice for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Wiggles Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Yeah Noah was all over the interwebs a handful of moths ago. Still funny tho. Especially RG3 trying to stay relevant with it. Cornball. 🤭 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had 2 1k rushing seasons so that shows that he was productive on the ground. He also had 80+ and 70+ catch seasons to start his pro career. If anything he was prob ahead of his time in the NFL. Im sure he'd be a legit weapon in this pass crazy league now. Assuming his injury history didn't knock him out. I'm just not sure giving him back his award makes sense now after he got caught breaking the cardinal sin of college football back then. Even if it would be permitted now (not sure if some of it would though tbh). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixcuincle Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 The NCAA and Heisman trust were wrong to deprive Reggie of his Heisman. Glad he got it back. Long list of transgressions the NCAA got away with under the guise of "justice"--first "vacated" NCAA title, very unfair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. But I still don't think he was a bust. Leave that to players chosen at #2 like Rick Mirer, Ryan Leaf, or Blair Thomas. That offseason before the draft, the Saints signed Brees and then decided they needed a weapon to go with him. Fwiw that 2006 draft wasn't that great when you look back at it. Especially at RB. Had the Saints picked #2 the following year, they likely would have taken Megatron (or AP). 🤦♂️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseBlitz Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 I'm willing to agree that we have different definitions of "bust." And yea, you are right, that draft was miserable. Top 3 QBs: Vince Young, Matt Leinart, Smokin' Jay Cutler. The best NFL career out of the entire draft is probably Nick Mangold. Wow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'd rather have a 7-time Pro Bowl interior lineman than a return specialist, even arguably the greatest return specialist of all time (sorry BMitch!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
