    Off Base Comment about the Big 12

    I read this article from "Saturday Down South": https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/sec-football/first-and-10-inside-sec-scheduling-nightmare-8-games-9-games/ and I was taken aback by a comment made by an SEC AD (18th paragraph down in the first section of the article): "By the time the 14...

    New Florida NIL Legislation

    https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/35673223/florida-updates-nil-legislation-remove-legal-restrictions It seems like it might be possible for the NCAA to look at a small sampling of receipts at the huge money programs to see if payments to players are for actual name, image and...

    Big 12 Most Balanced P5 League in 2022?

    I haven't looked outside the Big 12 enough to make a call on this, but if i had to guess I would say Josh Pate is correct here. Any thoughts?

    Re: Conferences

    My vote is for the Big 12 to explain what it has to offer and hopefully that is enough for at least 2 of the Pac 12 schools to realize the benefits of joining the Big 12.

    NCAA and its member schools- one is made up of the other

    If the NCAA is represented by its member schools, why do people in the media blame the organization for college sports problems without asking why the schools that make up its membership don't reform it?

    How to Make Seeding More Interesting for NCAA Baseball and Softball Tourneys

    I just realized that the NCAA baseball and softball tournaments could have teams seeded 1-8 using the top 8 teams nationally as the one seeds. This would allow fans to know just by looking at the seeds when big upsets take place like in the basketball tournaments. The eight number 1 seeds would...

    Where is Bowlsby's Response to Negative Hyperbole about Big 8?

    I watched Bowlsby's speech at the Big 12 media days (prior to OuT) and found it to be uninspiring. However, I suppose simply 'going about the business' of running a conference can be more important than being charismatic so it's not that big of a deal. This said, whatever his personality is...

    What happened to last year not counting against players' years of eligibility?

    Just saw that Brock Purdy is listed as a senior on the Cyclones.com roster. If last year didn't count against eligibility, shouldn't he be a junior?

    Lots of people who filled out all chalk brackets so there's an abnormal amount of perfect brackets.
