Re: Podcast: Mike Wright talks about his decision to transfer from VU to Miss. State

This is probably not what he wants to hear, but if he does understudy Rogers next year and can't win the starting job in 2024 he should think about a position change. He is an NFL level athletic talent. Maybe he can do that at QB - but if he can't win the starting job at Miss St as an upperclassman...

Re: Laughable NCAA enforcement strikes again

Vacate wins. NOT THAT! Do we have an over .500 lifetime record against 'bama after vacated wins?

Would you feel any better about, say, our 2005 loss to FLA if a few years later FLA's win was "vacated" due to some NCAA infraction?

Re: OT: Serious allegations against Northwestern, Pat Fitzgerald

I don't mind the firing of Fitzgerald, even if he may be something of a scapegoat, but if Fitzgerald loses his job (career?) they have got to come down on some specific players. There are criminal hazing laws. The DA should be involved.

Re: Podcast: Mike Wright talks about his decision to transfer from VU to Miss. State

By the time Rogers is gone, they'll have someone else. Given that T.J. got knocked out of the last three games he played, Mike probably would have seen more snaps here than at MSU.

Re: Here are your 2024 opponents

I'll be happy to see the book closed on the "SEC" as it has been on the SWC and Big 8, among others. The moniker is no longer applicable, nor is the spirit of the league. College football has changed, and continues to. We might as well accept it and let go of the past. I hate that I'm say...

There are now two super conferences. One has a bunch of former SEC teams along with many others and the other has many former Big 10 teams along with many others.

Re: OT: NIL on steroids

I read that Arch Manning, the freshman qb at Texas, received $3.7 million in NIL money. Don't know if that claim is true. He has not yet played a down. That is more money than many first year NFL players make. I realize it will be difficult, if not impossible, to limit NIL money. After all, our soc...

Re: REALLY NICE ARTICLE ON KEN SEALS

He's a feel good story off the field right now, and I suspect he may be a feel good story on the field as well in the coming season. He needs to be given more snaps than the average No. 2, because the chances that he will be needed are greater than for the average No. 2.

Vanderbilt to play Troy with $100 million on the line. Certainly not an invitation to stretch rules and cheat.
