So what's the list so far this season: those two, Nebraska, Arizona State, Georgia Tech ....Quote:

It will be interesting to watch the dominoes fall. Indirectly, I could see this impacting our conference and FCS. Once the P5 jobs get filled, it will create some opportunities for familiar names.
Petrino was on a path to get another shot at FBS. Maybe if they finish strong he'll get some looks.
If JMU stays hot, Cignetti will be a a candidate for a big payday.
This is why I'm torn about the NIL stuff and the status of amateur athletics. Seems to me that if a coach can get paid $10M or more to go away (or millions to actually coach), why not let the players in on some of that action?

Good for them, honestly do they get the viewership they used to? I haven't watched in a couple years, and seems with all the obscure schools (non SEC, B10) they are trying to boost ratings?Quote:

Will be an interesting atmosphere. Nice to see another FCS rivalry game get some spotlight.

UTRGV - University of Texas Rio Grande Valley to add FCS football
Little strange to me they can skip levels and immediately start full FCS, when lower division teams like Tarleton and St Thomas have transition years.Quote:

One is an entry point, and one is a transfer. A new program has to start somewhere, and I assume this school was already D1.Quote:

I think they are D1. FCS is the lowest level a D1 school can sponsor a team at, correct?Quote:

Getting the old Big East together for football would be awesome. Their basketball tourney was more fun than the Big Dance. Prison ball.Quote:

Another name out there for the Colorado job is Illinois defensive coordinator Ryan Walters, who played at the University of Colorado.
Interesting, I know which of those names would get the CU fan base most fired up....Quote:

Iowa loses to Nebraska in a game that wasn't even close until the end. Big Red goes up 24-0 before hanging on 24-17. Iowa didn't deserve to win the west anyway, but this opens it up for Minnesota maybe??
Not sure of their path, but if Purdue wins, they are in. Doesn't really matter though. Ohio State or Michigan will destroy whoever is in the championship game.Quote:

With a win today over Bucky at Camp Randall, and a Purdue loss today Goldy would end up at 5-4 and tied with both Boilermakers and Hawkeyes. Goldy lost the head to head to both of those teams. They're out.Quote:

It seems like Ohio State always finds one game to completely lay an egg. Not saying Michigan isn't good, but, Ohio State giving up lots of big playsQuote:

Colorado has offered Deion Sanders its head coaching job, sources tell The Athletic’s @BruceFeldmanCFB. Through three seasons at Jackson State, Sanders has compiled a 26-5 record.
To me the real question is if any other FBS thinks Deion's record is legit. Is anyone bigger/better than crappy Colorado wowed by his inflated W/Ls in a shitty league?Quote:

As many as he wants to bring with him.Quote:
