Several schools announced this today. What day is it?

Ahhhh, thank you. LOL. I’m retired so not really cognizant of “what day it is”. So they got me with this one. I did manage to filter out the Carson Wentz retirement story from The Spectrum but failed to keep my antenna turned for this one. Gonna have to see if I can get the BS meter in for service.

What a total collapse for the CAA, once THE class of the FCS.

The FBS Oversight Committee meets on Monday (June 16) from 2-3:30 p.m. ET. It's expected to decide on Sac State's FBS independent waiver.

If the FBSOC approves the waiver, it then goes to the Division 1 Council for final approval, which meets later this month.

NCAA Football Oversight Committee is providing to the DI Council a recommendation not to support the waiver request from Sacramento State seeking to transition to FBS, sources tell @YahooSports.

The authority to grant the waiver still remains at the DI Council’s discretion.

Liberty used the "Religious" card and NCAA did not want to go down that path. Plus it was a different time in NCAA move ups. The Big Boys are putting up all kinds of guardrails to stop it. NCAA is not going to bite the hand that is feeding them.
