You never know. I also think/hope FSU bounces into relevance again this season. Maybe not top dog, but at least improve dramatically.

Nice thread Analyst Looking forward to Notre Dame and see how center Jarrett Patterson and tight end Michael Mayer look vs the Buckeyes. We're in the market for both, although I'm near 100% certain we get our QB this draft.

UNC running back British Brooks will miss the 2022 season. He was their starting RB.

flash forward, players will want agents and a piece of the pie. Why not? Bringining in billions for nothing as everybody evolved into capitalizing beyond the field. Why not get paid on the field? A stud OL should lay claim the stud QB is at risk if i doesn't block, etc Crazy

That degree is important for their future with such a tiny percentage of players going professional over the long haul. The college logos are the brand while the student body create the college atmosphere. Take those components away and you have the USFL. People don’t pay for that. They’ll opt to watch college imo.

Good points. It would ruin the brand if they remove the universities. And would be a minor league to the NFL. College stadiums pack 70-80K college students and alumni. Remove that, and expect a sharp decline.
