Recruiting Forum Football Talk VI

[Weezer]

I actually agree with you deep down.

I'm at the IDGAF anymore if players, or others whine about stuff like this. This is want they wanted...they got it.
I'm trying to adapt the best way I can. I must be turning into @Weezer and @Ulysees E. McGill ...............

I highly doubt you're turning into a sexy beast.

Oh lord no. Give me Dooley's Orange Pants instead. Those overalls are hideous!

Sisterhood of Dem Travelin Orange Britches.

Thinking about the Pac 12 today:

 

[UTProf]

Didn't ND finally agree to join the ACC tho? Oh sure it was for COVID but look what's happened to the ACC since. All this time, we gave ND a hard time, we didn't realize they were refusing to join for everyone's own good. lol.

YES! We can have lots of fun with puns on britches.

You just wait 'till dem britches show up, then you gonna be hurting.

 

[hotcypress]

So when do these conference changes go in effect? Next season or this season?

 

[Weezer]

Pac12 crumbling before our eyes.

About to be the PAC 4.

 

[UpstateVol613]

I wish this was true.

I hate this new era of college sports.

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

I wish this was true.

I appreciate having those two automatic wins every year.

 

[Volsdeep4]

I don't know how you do that, tbh. It's been ridiculously hot in a lot of Western states. A few of those games, especially at the beginning of the season, almost have to be played at night time there.

Ahhh see another nightmare to consider. They just keep growing. Honestly I really don’t care as long as we see better in season games. I’m all for it. Whatever

 

[Weezer]

Jealousy is a different kind of beast.

 

[smokeyz1]

Looks like the B1G will have 20+ teams. They will end up splitting into West and East divisions. If they get up to 24 teams they could have 3 divisions. So the teams will rarely have to travel cross country unless its for the championship game.

 

[Vol423]

About to be the PAC 4.

...and they'll STILL be crying that they're being unfairly overlooked and deserve a spot in the College Football Playoffs.

Folks will say we need to stop playing crappy teams and then throw fits when we keep going 7-5.

I think we should kick out Vanderbilt and replace them with the Green Bay Packers, personally.

Realignment has absolutely zero to do with paying players and everything to do with the TV money. Schools aren’t paying players, NIL is.

 

[RikidyBones]

You are not worthy, bruh. Sewanee rocks. Tulane rolls.

I was under the impression it was indeed that ...

Rocky Top rocks.. Rocky Top rolls.

I know.........I was just venting about the entire landscape. not just realignment.

^Perfect song and vid for that example. As for what 'we' wanted. Well, some did.

I did think it was ridiculous when players weren't able to get any remuneration for all the money they helped generate. I wasn't necessarily looking for a system however where some got a bucket full of money and others much less (like it's a professional sport).

And yes, I still like playoffs and want more teams in the playoffs. Again, I wasn't asking for Super Conferences where schools from across the country are in the same conference. I preferred regional lineups of the past.

I'm not loving the direction of college sports overall.
