I was talking recently to a person who knows the NCAA basketball scene intimately well.   I asked her what she thought of AAU, whether she thought it was shady and corrupt.  No moreso than NCAA, she said.  By which she meant, dirty as slave traders.

F NCAA Football.

Pay the players.

SI.com says the shtein's deeper (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/magazine/05/30/jim.tressel/index.html)

At least 28 players since 2002, some trading memorabilia for marijuana.  It also says Pryor has had at least 8 vehicles in his 3 years there, Tressel as an assistant in the 80s would rig raffles so the top recruits would win the prizes, and he set up jobs for 13 players at Phar-Mor while at Youngstown State, they were paid illegally, and the star player was given a car and $10K

Ohio State is going to claim that this was all Tressel's fault so they can be spared further punishment

dont

title ix is outdated and its served its purpose.

the conferences banding together to remove themselves from the ncaas shackles and getting their on tv deals turned cfb and cbb into big money operations. its disgusting how much cash is changing hands among various middle aged white dudes while kids (mostly poor and mostly black) put their bodies on their line. then, at the end of the day, they dont see a dime.

the ncaa was all well in good in 1960 when there wasnt any mass recruiting. everyone stuck to their areas. little to no tv exposure. college was a community and state thing. now its too big and winning is too important.

game needs to change NOW. revolution time.

Free education IS paying the athletes. I agree that pay to play shtein is overblown and that some of the pretense should be stripped if we're really going to talk about what's fair, but to act like scholarship athletes aren't getting something of serious monetary value out of the deal is farging stupid. Stop being stupid, stupid.

Post by: MDS on May 31, 2011, 05:15:10 PM
a lot of the guys coming in, and were talking football and basketball here, dont have the ability to handle a college eduction and college curriculum. they either were never educated enough in their local schools or are simply too immature and too stupid to process everything.

a lot of the times its on the system, sometimes its of their own doing. but when its on the system, where they are told by every single solitary human being they know that they are destined for the nfl or nba and big money, then when they get to lsu or unc or whatever they quickly find out there are a lot of people better than them. then what? can they just shrug that off, get their degree and go into another line of work?

no. they cant. they dont have the ability because they were never taught how. so they either transfer somewhere else where they can play or stay and never play or just quit. either way they finish playing and are cast off back to their hometowns with their dick in their hands and no useful or tangible talents to contribute to society.

but guess what. you watched them on tv. you paid to go to their games. their bosses got money. school got money. coach got paid. president and ceo of the bowl games got his cut. and what did you get? a bunch of classes that meant nothing to you that you knew didnt matter? sounds like a fair deal.

meanwhile, even if you think the college education alone is a fair deal, a lot of these kids are farging poor as hell. how they hell are they supposed to get walk around money? not even buy a handle and some pot walk around money, but let me take this girl out or let me go buy some snacks or a microwave kind of money. on scholarship they get 3 meals a day from the school. man people get hungrier than that sometimes. sometimes they dont want to eat at the school. maybe they want to go to macdonalds or a nice joint in the city. but they dont have time for a job because they need to learn their playbook and get in the gym so the team can go 12-0 and everyone else can get paid but them.
Title: Re: 2011 College Football Thread
Post by: rjs246 on May 31, 2011, 05:29:24 PM
I'm not arguing that these kids are well prepared to utilize what they are given, but they aren't prepared to utilize money either. If you're argument is that the system failed them and their education is useless, I tend to agree. But you also have to concede that money is useless to a person who is utterly uneducated on how to properly live on it. The players are getting something of real value something that others would give a lot to have, period. In that manner they are paid. Just like they are paid in actual currency in the NBA (or wherever). The tragedy isn't that they don't get paid in college. The tragedy is that they ARE paid and aren't given the tools to take advantage because the system doesn't care about making them successful human beings.

obviously that is true, too

but we cant really sit there and say "well, if we pay them, theyll just go out and waste it on crap so we might as well not pay them anyway."

in many cases, yes. if you pay some idiot athlete even something like $200 a week on top of his scholarship first thing hes gonna do is go buy a car and a house for ma dooks. shtein he cant really afford but hell figure its just the start before the real cash comes in 2-3 years.

they are a part of a giant money making operation. they should get a fair cut. what they do with it we really have no control over. hopefully they are properly educated in how to spend it but they were never properly educated in the first place so what the farg difference would it make.

you and your kids would know what to do with that kind of education. idiot poor people do not. they cant just be taught on the drop of a hat. they cant process the information because they are stupid, poor, uncultured and uneducated. the system that allows them to be like this obviously goes beyond sports but this is how our society operates.

maybe it is. but it at least gives them something. it gives them a cut of the pie that they are blocked from having now. the money is out there. either everyone gets some of it or it just goes to the rich white dudes. hmmmm. which way is fair.

here's the crux of the matter...from whitlocks column

QuoteWhy does the story keep getting framed around the people? Why do we keep demonizing the people rather than rules that NCAA architect Walter Byers chastised in his 1995 book, "Unsportsmanlike Conduct: Exploiting the Student-Athlete?"

"Today the NCAA Presidents Commission," Byers wrote, "is preoccupied with tightening a few loose bolts in a worn machine, firmly committed to the neo-plantation belief that enormous proceeds from college games belong to the overseers (administrators) and supervisors (coaches). The plantation workers performing in the arena may only receive those benefits authorized by the overseers."

the game is rigged. too much money is exchanging hands and the compensation of a degree has proven to be valueless. so what do we do? we cant go back in time and fix the socioeconomical problems, can we?

Post by: Dillen on May 31, 2011, 06:26:41 PM
It is absolutely impossible to have any fairness across the board in college sports. Some kids get to go to school for free because they can put a ball through a hoop. People see that as stupid. A lot of other kids don't get full scholarships. A lot of athletes don't get scholarships at all. UC Berkeley hands out baseball scholarships that random lower level D1 schools can't afford to. The better schools get more revenue, probably have more travel money for the players, and any and all other benefits in between. Other schools don't have that. How do you determine who would get paid, and how much? What about the other sports programs? Then you'd have to go into which program is more important or valuable, and you can't do that. It'd bring up a whole other bag of issues.

Jason Whitlock is a tub thumping racist fat piece of shtein.  Every farging article he spews out his ass has some retarded racial angle, and although racism is incredibly prevalent, racism does not play a part in how student athletes are compensated.  Whites are treated the same as Asians who are treated the same as African-Americans who are treated the same as Latinos and blahdy-blahdy-blah.

It's about economics.  Whining about athletes who aren't prepared emotionally or scholastically to survive in a college or university environment is a colossal waste of time.  In short, there are bigger issues facing this country than whether some farging jock gets fair compensation for his services as an athlete. 

Hell, what salad dressing I'm gonna use on my dinner salad is a more pressing issue than this nonsense.

If they don't want the farging scholarship then don't accept it.  Get a farging job as a car wash attendant or sling burgers at McDonald's for a while.  Trust me, do that for a year or so and then come complain about how you're mistreated as a "student-athlete".

The moment they sign the scholarship agreements.

And FTR, I'm all for providing college athletes with stipends.  Hell, if an equitable system of payment could be established for all student athletes (not just the revenue producers) I'd be all for that as well.

That said, equating a student athlete scholarship with slavery is outlandishly hyperbolic and insulting to the institutions who provide them, even for these two buffoons.

look, old man. i dont know how to explain this any clearer: a college education is not a sufficient payment for many of the kids who are given it because socially and mentally they are not capable of processing the information. they are under educated and under prepared and being thrown into upper level classrooms and higher education isnt going to make things work.

You've been in Mexico for so long that you must have forgot that that is exactly how every major business in this country works. 

I'm not saying it's acceptable, but if I'm going to argue on someone's behalf, it's going to be the American worker who spends 40 years working in a cell/cubicle for a meager salary while the execs get caked off with multi-million dollar bonuses, not some athlete who has to suck it up for a couple of years in college before he gets to sign his multi-million dollar contract. 

But like Rome said....if they can come up with a system that gives student-athletes some sort of stipend, then I'd be all for it.  Since these kids aren't allowed to get jobs, then the schools should do something to make sure they've got a little pocket change from week to week.

im not sure of the exact time frame because smu and all those schools were going nuts in the 70s, but it was around the 80s or early 90s when the money really started rolling into these conferences because they started controlling how they were distributed, not the ncaa.

that made recruiting a nationwide battle, not a local one. it escalated coaches salary to the point where mack brown is the highest state-paid employee in texas (even though his actual salary is covered by boosters). it gave bowl games company tie ins so the money is just flowing everywhere to everyone to except for the players. when you take a step back and realize how much it is and how much hinges on these programs continuing to win and how little these kids get out of it, its insane.

not saying it's acceptable, but if I'm going to argue on someone's behalf, it's going to be the American worker who spends 40 years working in a cell/cubicle for a meager salary while the execs get caked off with multi-million dollar bonuses, not some athlete who has to suck it up for a couple of years in college before he gets to sign his multi-million dollar contract

this whole thing isnt about that athlete, really. no one was crying from tebow or cam newton, guys who were gonna get caked in the nfl. its the guys who arent good enough to get drafted and the guys who at best get 1-2 years of nfl service at the minimum before they are finished. those guys get nothing out of the deal. and that is the majority of basketball and football players.

the only negative would be that it may cause mass transfers of players who cant cut it at their current school trying to get to a lesser program to make more money...but that can easily be solved by saying anyone who transfers has their stipend frozen for two years

society is at fault. we fail so many of our own on a daily basis. most of those are poor. many are minorities who have never been given a chance for generations.

its a systematic process of failure. the wire explains all of this better than anyone else could.

the solution goes beyond college sports but at least giving the kids something, anything, tangible they can take besides a fraud of an education would be a start. it wont solve anything but even if it takes $200 million out of jim delanys trust fund and gives some chicken shacks and corner stores more money then fine. at least its going to good use.

I am by nature, not school smart.  Sitting in a classroom, taking notes, reading, studying were all difficult for me.  I was a B+/A- student and I had to work twice as hard as the smart kids to get my grades.  Guess you could say I was a gritty student.  It's all just a matter of pride really.  You either take pride in your work or you don't.  Saying that an athlete (especially a football player) doesn't have the ability to learn is ridiculous.  Have you seen a college football playbook?  They learn that, don't they?  They read it, they study it, they take notes.  How is that any different from any regular class.  An athlete has the aptitude to learn just as much as a non-athlete, it's just a matter of how much effort they want to put into it.

If they were motivated at any point from k-12, they wouldn't have to worry about playing catch up in college.  It's pride.  You either care or you don't.  Most athletes don't care about academics.

and this is someone who watched the wire

let me say it like this. if after 18 years of life you went somewhere where they tried to get you take digging holes really seriously. said if you dig holes well enough and try and study on hole digging you can do anything you want. but you, as someone who never valued digging holes, can never really truly give a shtein about hole digging. its just not in your value system as something important.

now replace digging holes with "school work" and youll get 95% of D1 football and basketball players. all the supposed go get em motivation in the world wont make them invest deeply in something they were never taught to care about.

Have to admit this, but IGY's spot on. I knew athletes in my college who graduated just fine from HS, but couldn't do basic math, spell, punctuate, etc. Tutoring them was like working with grade school kids, only with mouths that sounded like truck drivers when they got so pissed off because they were so stupid. But if they didn't maintain their GPA, they were off the team.

wow...no

are there some kids who come from these enviroments who arent motivated...sure there are....but no more so than the number of unmotivated kids that come from the 90210...it has nothing to do with being an athlete....these kids werent star athletes when they were already behind the 8 ball and failed by their parents...their school system  their govennment or all of the above

For me, its simply the fact that my name is attached to it that makes me work hard.  I don't care if it's school, athletics or digging holes in the ground.  I don't even care if there's some sort of payoff at the end.  If the body of work is going to be identified as mine, then I'm going to put the effort in to make sure it represents me the best way possible.  That isn't intelligence.  It's pride and self respect and the only person who can give that to you is yourself.

I am shockingly with Han IGY and Jewbacca on this one. The attitude towards education, and the lack of funding/skilled teachers that a lot of these children grow up with will absolutely make it pretty much impossible for them to succeed academically in college or really get anything out of it. There are of course some who fare better than others, but since these children were born they were behind their peers in education (poor children enter school 3-5 years behind where they should be, literacy wise). Couple that with the underfunded education they generally receive throughout life, and coming from areas that generally have poor attitude towards education......well, by the time they get to college on a full athletic ride, they haven't thought once about cracking a book since the time they didn't meet GPA requirements to stay on the high school football team and the high school covered it up.

If you grew up with poor black parents in the inner city, your idea of pride and self-respect would probably be a little different than the values you hold now. It comes back to parenting a lot and unfortunately there's nothing you can do about parenting.

dont think about yourself and how you were raised

think about the environments these kids are coming from. they dont have the same mindset as you did, they dont have the same values and didnt have the same upbringing.

culture raises children. its how you become who you are. and a lot of the cultures in america fail their children.

my middle class jewish one didnt. your (working class military?) didnt either. thats why we contribute to society (sort of, for me) and thats why failed college athletes dont.

It's actually got nothing to do with how I was raised.  My parents never had any conversations with me about taking pride in my work.  They never had too.  Maybe I was just "born with it."  It's not a complicated issue imo.  You either care about your work or you don't.  I don't understand how a person can take pride in doing one thing but not another.  School, athletics, whatever....it's just one challenge after another and another opportunity for me to compete.

you were raised in an environment where education was taken seriously from the parents to the teachers. you didnt go to schools where kids bring shivs and uzis and where the textbooks are from 1955. where a day of zero violence and zero arrests is a great day.

other people were.

they only thing they can think of is hitting it rich in the pros. thats how they think theyre gonna do. look at allen iverson. no one worked harder on the court than that little dude. but lets just say he didnt work "as hard" in the classroom. why? why the farg you think.

The problem is the NCAA is so inconsistent with who they investigate and punish.  We all know that damn near every D1 program cheats.  Seems like they just pick a couple of big name programs every now and then, find some shady shtein, punish them and then tell everyone that they are concerned with protecting the "integrity" of college athletics.  If they really policed their own and if say 90% of colleges were doing the right thing, then I'd have no problem with them taking awards, bowls or reg season wins from the ones that were caught cheating.

This Shapiro dude is a piece of work.

QuoteIn one instance, Shapiro described taking a player to the Pink Pony strip club and paying for a dancer to engage in sex with the athlete. In the ensuing weeks, Shapiro said the dancer called one of his security providers and informed him that the player had gotten her pregnant during the incident. Shapiro said he gave the dancer $500 to have an abortion performed, without notifying the player of the incident.

"I was doing him a favor," the booster said. "That idiot might have wanted to keep [the baby]."

And he's about as big as a leprechaun.

This is legitimately MA. 

QuoteJOHNSTON, Iowa -- The new trophy designed for the winner of the annual Iowa-Iowa State gridiron showdown was scrapped Tuesday as organizers acknowledged it had too much to do with corn and not nearly enough to do with football.

The Cy-Hawk Trophy was redesigned this year after complaints that the old one -- a simple bronze statue of a football and a player -- was a bit dated.

With the Iowa Corn Growers Association as the new sponsor of the series between Iowa State's Cyclones and Iowa's Hawkeyes, the new trophy was drawn up as a farm family huddled around a bushel of corn. The design was a nod to the state's deep agricultural roots and, of course, corn is a primary staple around here.

It was unveiled Friday at the state fair. And everyone pretty much hated it, likening it to a garage sale leftover or something from the Precious Moments catalog. Newspaper chats, Twitter and Facebook lit up with critics, and even former Iowa coach Hayden Fry and Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad weighed in against the new design.

The reviled new Cy-Hawk trophy given to the winner of the annual Iowa-Iowa State football game has been scrapped just four days after its unveiling.  Craig Floss, the CEO of the corn growers group, said the response showed the passion Iowa fans have for football.

This is pretty much what Cowherd said this morning and he's spot on. He said the only people bitching about the unis are 40 yr old white dudes. But UM isn't recruiting old white dudes, they're recruiting 17/18 yr old kids who like flash and bling. 

He's right too.

no its partially why they did it.....they started a campaign almost a year ago to promote themselves to become marylands team and have everyone in the state root for them even if you arent an alumnist.....this is a big reason why they did it....the maryland flag being all over the uni wasnt to get the jerseys talked about....no one cares about the state of maryland anywhere else in the country

Could go either way. I held off on pushing to a bigger bet when the line started to drop. I got my ass handed to me on the Noon games but made back a little in late games. Biggest play of the day was Stanford.

College football is already epic this year. Some great games.

i missed the first weekend being out of circulation in the mountains...but today has been pretty good...and week 2 is supposed to be "quiet"

definitely falls under the heading of getting way ahead of myself but id like to see byu pull this off vs texas and go undefeated...people talk boise and while byu probably isnt as good as they are they actually have a legit schedule if they were to run the table

and this year
with florida in transition
ohio state down
a hideous pac ten
and no dominant sec team
you might have a legit argument for a non bcs johnson to make it

the wild card would be if florida state is back and they very well may be....oklahoma at tallahasse prime time next week is going to be epic

its called the middle of the field and its not a bad call at all...michigan made a gutsy call and it paid off but if that ball gets tipped up in the air or the wr's bobbles and plays with it then drops or denard takes an extra couple seconds to throw it or it gets picked off then michigan loses...they executed to perfection and it worked

CBSS has that deal with the three service academies when they play at home. Every now and then Versus will get one (last years Utah @ AF) but if we're (or either of the other two) on the road, it's ESPN3 or nothing - barring a game vs. ND or something like that.

No, Army will never be in the Big East, nor should we be. Theres no way we could compete in any conference over the course of a full season, and the same goes for Navy and AF - the fact that the BE is looking at the services academies to begin with screams desperation.

I'm assuming the fumble where the ASU defender dove as the ball was bouncing out of bounds and attempted to save it?  Looked good to me. I thought the defender knocked it back in before his knee hit the ground.  I was watching the second half at the gym.  No audio was killing me.  I was hoping Arizona State was going to make more of a game out of it in the second half.  This game must have ended at 1:30 EST.

seriously does anyone believe this guy? vanillanova had ample chances to move up the last 2 years. the big east asked them to a million different ways. they dont have the money, the support or the facilities. they arent even remotely close to being able to, nor is it even realistic considering they have no place to play and nothing financially in the caldron to make it happen.

yeah i was wondering if they were going to overturn it since i'm not sure it was 'conclusive' via any video angle, but was 98% sure the ball actually crossed the line.  i think the angle where the camera was shaking showed the ball over the line but there was never a 100% it's a TD shot. 

crazy finish.

now time to see if TTU can hold on.  OU looks like ass right now.

The latest idea being thrown around is merging with C-USA and MWC to create a 28-team 4-division conference

Big East: UConn, Rutgers, Cincinnati, South Florida, Central Florida, East Carolina, Navy
Central: Marshall, Memphis, Southern Mississippi, Tulane, Alabama-Birmingham, Rice, Houston

Post by: BigEd76 on October 26, 2011, 12:49:27 AM
First they're assuming Louisville will leave for the Big XII, San Jose State will join from WAC and Navy will join from being an independent.

The four remaining Big East teams go in the East, along with Navy and the two teams from C-USA that are expected to join Big East anyway (East Carolina, UCF).

The three teams already leaving WAC for MWC next year (Fresno State, Hawaii, Nevada) would join with Boise State, San Diego State and UNLV from MWC, then SJSU would come over from WAC for the 7th team and form the West.

The other two divisions are a grouping of the remaining C-USA and MWC teams.

The four division winners would face off over two weeks to determine the BCS spot.

There's also a 32-team version that includes Louisville, Temple, Louisiana Tech and Utah State.

what a lot teams do is make a trip out of it where they play arizona and arizona state and maybe stop in at ucla on the way back or something

one of the obstacles of texas joining the big ten when that was a possibility was the fact that would the money they gain from the big ten compensate for ahving to fly non revenue teams to state college versus busing them to waco or college station...and thats texas

I hope you're getting odds, because they've managed to "hype" it as a likely low-scoring defensive struggle. However, if it ends up being closer to a shootout, it generates even more excitement. So, the only chance it doesn't "live up" at this point is if Bama wins by double digits in an ugly game. Like 16-3.

big ten sucks because the talent is horrible...so yeah if this was nebraska and penn state it would suck

the amount of great players in this game is staggering

in three years i have never seen trent richardson get hit hard and tonight it happened three times in the first quarter

lol @ 36 players from this game going to the pros and 10 DB's

you want a sick farging number about the talent in the south

i was just looking at the lsu and bama rosters and combined btwn the two teams there are six players from north of north carolina...three ohio and three maryland...and we are talking about 100 man rosters...im not taing about starters or impact guys just anyone period

youd think that national programs like these two would be pulling the best from all over the country...similar to what a duke or north carolina would do in basketball...but the football talent down there is so retarded that on rosters that hold a ton of players they dont even need to go elsewhere

KSU looked completely out of sync on that last play.  Great night of football.

You're correct igy, the talent pool in the deep south is just incredible.  We were sitting here watching the game commenting on how amazing these athletes are.  Frightening.

That aussie punter Wing for LSU is pretty damn good.  Alabama has that beast from down under playing DT.

lol...the game of he century went to overtime and was an amazing defensive struggle...could there have been more points sure...but it was what everyone expected and the best part about it was that literally every single play in the game meant something...it was ultra magnification at its best because you knew if one big mistake was made the game could be over

just admit you dont want to lose the money and move on

I think Arkansas would have significant issues with LSU making that National Championship over them if they win @ LSU in two weeks.  Not saying you're wrong, but the transitive property gets pretty crazy in the SEC at that point: Alabama beats Arkansas, LSU beats Alabama, Arkansas beats LSU.

That being said, I think LSU beats them like 30-20 or something along those lines.  I'm not sure Oregon will have the numbers to pass Alabama at this time either, but if they run over some teams I can see it happening.  It will be an interesting debate.

Oregon also was down 40-20 with a minute left in that game whereas Bama lost because they missed 15 field goals.  If the season ended today I think Bama makes it, but Oregon is going to have more opportunities to pass them down the stretch playing USC and ASU while Bama only has Auburn.

so they get a second shot cause they missed fg's...why?

oregon lost their top two backs and had to go with a true freshman against lsu on the road...and the kid fumbled i believe three times...if oregon runs the table id love to see them get a second shot at lsu on a neutral field...granted im only talking about them vs bama if both run the table from here on out...im not locked in on oregon making it just them making it over a one loss bama team...and im an sec whore

im sorry for bama but if you have the #1 team at home and you lose you dont get a second chance...unless everyone else has two losses

If Va. beats Va.

if its 4 right now lsu and bama are in. okie st is lookin good but still has oklahoma and the big 12 title game. houston maybe can get some pub. boise st, too. makes things really interesting. btw in my dream 4 teamer the high seed hosts the first game...then you go neutral for title. and the losers fall back into bowl selection.

i never went 16...i went 8 because of what happened 3 years ago but that was kind of a freak thing.

wow i went out to watch the uva-fla st game with some friends (easiest bet of the year, uva was getting 17), what a crazy end. they called it a catch and fla st. was out of TOs so the clock ran out. then they reviewed and called it an int. which put enough time on the clock for fla st. to try a kick. then they missed it. although even on replay the kick looked good to me.

anyway, then oregon missed a kick to lose 5 min. later. then i saw baylor roll 80 yards in 40 seconds to beat OU.

awesome insane 20-30 minutes of football.

Todd, did you watch any of the Houston game?  June Jones got a taste of his own medicine.

QuoteThe Cougars' sixth-year quarterback also joined Hawaii's Tim Chang as the only quarterbacks to reach 4,000 yards passing in three seasons, and he tied Chang's FBS record for career 300-yard passing games (36). Chang set his records in 2000-04, when he played for current SMU coach June Jones.

I am surprised he would go there, for a guy who quit because of "stress" and family you would think that he would want to go to a program not involved in scandal.  He doesn't even know what kind of sanctions are awaiting OSU. 

I think PSU may have had a slight chance before the scandal.  Everybody keeps saying Golden, but I would think they would want someone with no PSU ties.

Sumlin is a good coach. One of my friends knew him when he was at A&M and said he is a stand up guy and a great coach. He said the word on the street as to why he couldn't get a better HC job down here was because he is married to a white chick and these good ol' southern boys frown upon such things. Sad but true.

I think before this whole Sandusky thing, PSU would have been one of the most attractive jobs in the country.  I think we all forget that until a little over ten years ago PSU was a consistent nation power.  It would have been like taking the OU job when Stoops did, a "sleeping giant"

The better question is how young are you? Army/Navy game is more than just a game, it's bragging rights between branches, tradition, and a game where standings go out the door. Every person knows either someone that was in the Army or Navy at some point in their life, maybe it was a grandpa or an uncle, so they pick a side to root for.

army navy is cool i guess but it long ago ran its course...no one watches it anymore nor cares like they used too...its cool if you have military ties like sd said but other than that the lil guy is right its for elders who think its football played the right way by people who play for the love of the game...dont get it twisted theres absolutely nothing wrong with that its just not a game that many people care about...it worked a lot better before cable tv and the internet when it was the only thing to do on the last saturday of college football

i like watching the pregame and i might watch the first few series of the game but it quickly becomes absolutely unwatchable

No clue.  CBS has him listed at #1 at his position for the 2014 class, but I have to think his height is somewhat limiting. Seems to be the consensus is he's a great STer and ballhawk, but not a great pure corner, and will probably be a borderline 1st round pick.

im not going to argue that bama is the second best team. its a fact. but its seasons like this that destroy your side cause there are plenty of 1 loss teams that have a legit claim at the 2 spot.

Most of the talking heads seem to think it will still be LSU/Bama, but I'm worried at this point.  All OSU needs to get is ~25% of the 2nd place votes to pass Bama.  I think the odds of that might be more than 50/50.

A lot of people are predicting it will be OSU over Bama, personally I would like to see that because the last Bama/LSU game didn't live up to the hype.

Now you're simply trolling.

:-D how is this trolling? I didn't think the last game lived up to the hype.  Do I think OSU deserves a shot over Bama, probably not.  I would just like to see a game that hasn't happened.

you have to remember that havas thinks of himself as some kind of cfb yoda where his word is god

a 4-team playoff where lsu hosts either stanford or oregon and bama hosts ok st for the right to play lsu would be terrific. it would take things out of the voters hands and the computers hand and put it on the field

but for some reason the true cfb fans love letting fat sports writers and computer nerds decide who plays who. its their sport so frankly if this is what they want its not costing me sleep.

Bama unexpectedly stayed ahead of OSU in the Wolfe poll as well, and, coupled with USA today numbers, means OKState would need to pass Bama by 5 or more votes in the Harris poll to jump them in the BCS.

Mike Greenberg, a similarly-credible sports personality, suggested the same thing.

The argument that makes sense is that Bama already had LSU at home and lost... Why should they now get them on a neutral field?

OSU was up 24-7 in that game and blew it.  Hard to see that as an emotionally devastated team.

The second argument is one I've heard a lot recently but doesn't make sense judging by the context of other teams in play.  Its basically conceding that it would have been preferable for Bama to lose to someone like Vanderbilt instead of in OT versus LSU.  If you want to say OSU is better, or their resume is better, fine, but the rematch thing makes little sense, since the BCS supposed job is to put the two best teams on the field at the end of the year.

Stating that Bama is 100% with certainty better or more deserving than OkSt is also trolling, but you know this.

its not trolling....ff's comment comes from not having watched either team much if at all

bama is so clearly superior to okie state its not even funny...again they lost to farging iowa state...for god sakes stop the madness...the only reason okie state is where they are is because texas and oklahoma are having massive down years....georgia is probably undefeated right now if they play in the big 12

Bama will be in the game, but saying either scenario is absolutely correct and fair is sensationalism and hyperbole at their best.

One other random thing I guess going to IGY's point about Iowa State...

there is nothing sensationalistic about saying alabama is a better team than okie state....its fact....watch one half of one game from both teams and you can see this

if you hate the current syatem and think okie state deserves a shot via a playoff then i cant argue....but as it stands now in the current system to say okie st deserves to be there as much as alabama is insanity

Post by: Don Ho on December 20, 2011, 06:15:08 PM
Chow is an offensive genius.  Pretty good resume - BYU, NC State, USC, Utah in NCAA and Titans in NFL as OC.  Only concern is that he is 65.  Apparently he has been offered other head coaching jobs in the past - I know of Kentucky for one but he turned them down over assistant coaches pay.  Wants his assistants well taken care of.  He is going to make $600,000 a year for 4 years. 

Rumor is Brad Childress and Mike Martz threw their names in the hat.  Was never going to happen as they have no connection with the state or university.

Title: Re: 2011 College Football Thread
Post by: Don Ho on December 21, 2011, 12:52:25 AM
Most everyone is very happy with the hire.  Waiting for some more news to come out.  Apparently it got ugly and there were some tense moments leading up to the final hour.  Final candidates besides Chow were:

Duane Akina - Texas asst coach, Dirk Koetter - Jacksonville Jags OC, Mark Banker - Oregon State assistant and Brian Norwood - Baylor assistant that people were really high on.  Rich Miano was politicking hard for the job but he's part of the past two regimes.  He was actually the interim head coach the past two weeks.

Chow's coached the following QB's over the past 30 years:

Jim McMahon, Steve Young, Ty Detmer, Philip Rivers, Carson Palmer, Leinart.

Yeah VT locked them down pretty well.

Tomorrow night's match up is meh - I hope Clemson thumps WVA.

I am looking forward to the Cotton Bowl on Friday though - the Compass and GoDaddy suck - and then the big boy next Monday night.

An open letter to dreamers and whiners everywhere:

Dear Overly Passionate College Football Fans -

Stop complaining about college bowl games. Right now. Stop posting about it on Facebook. Stop emailing your friends. Just stop. Until everyone stops making decisions based on money, the bowl games aren't going anywhere. Of course the system isn't fair. It isn't designed to be fair. It's designed to make money. Gobs and gobs of money. So shut up.

And Penn Staters, you need to realize that if a playoff were in place and the Lions played in it they would be exposed as the third or fourth tier program that they are. They would be run off the field. Happy Valley would be flooded with boozy tears. The only reason they get any votes in any poll ever is because sports journalists are lazy and stupid and the college coaching community spends all of their time actually coaching. Anyone who has seen a Penn State game over the past five years knows that every vote they get to be in the top 25 is a gift from above. Imagine a school like UVA beating Temple by 2 points and still getting votes. Never happen. Voting and the BCS are the greatest thing that ever happened to programs that are past their prime. So stop farging whining.

Eat shtein,

rjs246

The bowl games have been awesome.  New Year's day with three great games - Outback, Rose Bowl, Fiesta Bowl. Two go to OT and we were one play away from a third.  Wilbon was bashing the bowls on PTI the other day.  Ok, yes there are a shtein load of them but a majority have been very entertaining this year.

Jordan Jefferson and the LSU offense was atrocious.

He couldn't even run the option right! He was taking bad angles all night long like it was the first time he ever ran it.

That was a thorough ass whipping by Bama.

im fine with a plus 1....it will suck in years where theres two undefeateds but in years where theres three undefeateds or three one loss teams its passable...i wish there was a way to institute a plus one but not be locked into it every year...just have it if the season calls for it....for example there was no need for a plus one this year where as a year like 2008 it would be ok

i just dont want a tournament that would literally ruin the sport

theres not going to be a tournament, sally

and this year you actually needed a plus 1. you had 3 teams all with 1 loss...now granted alabama's 1 loss was vastly superior to okie's and stanford's, but still. a loss is a loss. no one would have complained, well maybe besides you, if lsu played stanford and osu played bama in early january, with the winners meeting later for the title.

and something is going to happen. ratings were down from last year (and it had nothing to do with the game itself being terrible). its very tough to build momentum and buzz for a game when there is a 40 day lay off. but if you have the games mixed in on new years, then do the title game like a week or so later, that would be better.

Post by: ice grillin you on January 10, 2012, 02:22:40 PM
anything more than a plus one is a tournament

and lol.....a loss is not a loss

a plus one is not needed when you have a year where the two best teams are blatantly obvious

if you disagree with the previous two statements then you can only look at things in a simplistic non sports fan message board point of view and you just will never get it and i cant explain it to you

im not gonna argue that bama and lsu were the two best teams. other people, not even osu fans, think differently. our opinion should not be the decider. what the ap or the coaches say should not be the decider.

what is wrong with doing 4 or 6 and letting the players decide it on the field. sure bama is better on paper and in its resume than osu. then it shouldnt be a contest when they play. ok. well, prove it.

college football has forever been in the dark ages with the idiotic 2 polls decide all, then bcs, system. time for change my brotha.
