While looking up some stats from last year...couldn't help but notice all-world JT Daniels was hardly killing it last year according to stats that don't benefit him from all the talent around him (such as Tua's insane YPA when he was throwing 6 yard passes and receivers running the last 50 yards for TDs). On an island, he's nothing special...

This is not a sarcastic question - have you been this pessimistic on the season all along, or has something happened recently that has black pilled you?

Got me curious so looked at post history. He just started in April, and on the first page he compared both Hooker and Tayven to JG. 😂

The longer this goes on, and the more and more money players get paid, the more I feel certain that they'll eventuality try to cap player's earning potential in some way, shape, form, or fashion.

I don't see this as a good thing. This isn't a walk-on earning a scholarship that deducts against team scholarship counts. This is paying a player and skirting scholarship limits. It's exactly what isn't supposed to happen in CFB but with the way NLI is currently written we will see a ton of this and it will benefit schools like BYU and ND that have religious based support as well as big schools like BAMA. Those on top have an even better chance of staying on top. That walk-on's NLI isn't worth a dime but schools now use it to skirt limits and make CFB as corrupt, or perhaps more, as basketball.

Eventually either a new governing body or the NCAA will have to set rules about what constitutes using your NLI for legitimate purposes vs. companies and boosters using NLI to bribe players and recruits but that's not going to happen until we make a spectacular mess of things.

I didn’t even think about NLI occasioning talent stacking like this with walk-ons. Still a risk for a kid who would have to walk on at a school like Alabama in hopes that the promises made to him come true. Maybe that’s naive of me. We will see some screwy stuff for sure.

Ranted about it in the Dayne Shor thread. 3* OT with legitimate offers, committed to Bama, but supposedly as a PWO. Also supposedly getting NIL money.

Custer State Park is mostly about wildlife, especially bison. We visited several highly-rated state parks on this trip and Custer has to be the best in the US. Better than many national parks. But then, we love wildlife.

I tried to post a video I took of a bison herd walking right past our truck, which happened several times. But I couldn’t figure it out.
