I have no dog in this fight but I find this rather amazing

If anyone knows a kid who thinks they can walk on to a fairly large D1 program, now's their chance.

Sad to say but this happens every year now. Oklahoma St had 41 defections.

College football and basketball are all revolving doors, if a player wants to better themselves, the opportunity is there, I am not sure it helps or hurts their sports.

Gee, how will this affect their schoolwork? <snickering>

The unintended consequence of the whole NIL/Transfer portal mess.
In principle, I'm in favor of the NIL part. Not in favor of players simply moving from school to school on a whim.
But they didn't ask me.
It's a freaking mess. The NCAA is old news. It always sucked but now it's completely irrelevant. Something is going to replace it eventually ... the only question is who will it be and when?

College football is broken. I don't watch it anymore.

Something clearly went wrong. Oklahoma State declined as OU and Texas left the Big 12. It went off a cliff this year.

Iowa State has some issue, we don't see it, the players do. Give the points and take whoever plays them next year.... LOL!!
