Re: How Does The NCAA Stop This and When?

Ironically, if college football is to retain any of the characteristics that separates itself from the NFL, it will have to institute NFL-like mechanisms. Restrictions on free agency and something that resembles a salary cap are two items I can see coming in the near future. 100% agree. What would ...

Re: Reggie Grimes II?????

Does the portal window closing mean they are all trapped in the portal until it opens again? Or does it actually mean that the portal is closed to new entries—but one may exit the portal at any time regardless of portal window open or shut?

I would have thought that honor would have gone to Todd. Makes me wonder if he isn't getting ready to make a move.

Re: Predict OU record 2024 regular season

I don’t think Thompson is taking a scholarship or much NIL. He desperately wanted a place to go with top notch rehab facilities to come back from his torn ACL. Also he will be able to participate in OU pro day 2025.
