College Football News, Rumor & Humor

There’s also the fact that he has stated he has no desire to take over an already built program. That said, I think everyone here would be lying if they said they wouldn’t be at least a little worried if the Texas job opened up (same with Florida, Florida State, Auburn, Ole Miss, Miami, aTm, etc)

I think he has to at least take a call from all those. It’s all just speculation at this point.
 
True. But, the one thing CU has going for it is desperation. I doubt any of the schools you list would let CP do his thing the way CU does. CU was desperate enough to give CP the keys to the kingdom, such as it was, to get him here. I doubt anyplace else would, and CP likes the way CU has set him up. (At least as far as I know). So, I would be nervous if UT and the big cigars came snooping around, but I wouldn't panic, unless they did convince him to leave, at which time I am fully on the ledge, and in need of a Dr. Drew level intervention.

I think your read is correct. At some point, he’ll get a call. He listens. He stays in my opinion, unless someone wants to give him the keys, then he may have to think hard.
 
Lots happening in Power Conference Power Plays


This makes sense. The NCAA is so weak right now. If the conferences are going to take in rule making and governance, they are assuredly going to grab the money (NCAA BB tournament) as well.

But I think having 4 conferences that are all still acting separately and fighting for the power is not healthy for each sport because they are really not on the same page and they are not operating together.

The Schools have the power and yet they just give it away and unlike the NFL, they are not fully controlling the collective sports.

It would be better to set the standards for a variety of League Structures and then placing programs into those leagues rather than having scattershot organizations.

The CFP is a very unfair operation and acts like the Champions League which is fun, but incredibly uneven.

We all say the NFL sucks, and yet it is the most fairly run worldwide competition.

Yes. I agree. But I guess my assumption was that this is the first step toward some kind of non-NCAA governance structure that will collectively involve all four P4 conferences under one umbrella. You or Saban are leading candidates for Commissioner.

I would be Jimmy Carter to Saban's Reagan

I love corporate and organization formation and I have watched so many corporate assaults, and I just wish that CFB would find the middle ground of Community Betterment with solid Business practices and not just run amok Capitalism, but I am wrong and will be proven wrong
 
Beck sucks. His attitude towards the end was toxic (not attending Sugar Bowl practices, not helping Stockton get ready, not helping on the sidelines, etc. etc.) and basically, he just completely shut out the Georgia football program after Gunnar took over the SEC game. Not exactly the type of leader you want from your QB. We heard many jokes about him driving around campus in his Lambo when we were in Athens too - he just really wasn't liked.

His girlfriend is at the U but I don't care enough to know about their QB situation. Good riddance, Beck. You are not a DGD.
 
Beck is like Favre, Romo, Plummer, McNabb and other QBs who can put up some gaudy numbers while giving both your team and your opponent a good chance to win every game.
 
I wasn't saying that or comparing to those guys on NFL potential, just a comparable on the game management frustration you're buying with him.
Do you mean that he does similar in college? If so, that’s probably right.

NFL success probability beyond career third stringer for Beck is low IMO.
 
College GameDay absolutely sucks now
Corso cannot be back next year, it is tragic at this point
Herbstreit can go do games, but get him out of there
McAfee is just too much of a shock jock
I like Saban, but he is boring
ESPN is like Fox News now

McAfee is the right idea of making it fun and energetic like it was in the old days before getting formulaic and corporate. At least they got rid of Pollack a couple years ago.
