College football 2020 offseason thread

This is The Year for NC State. The ACC’s Team of Destiny for the 41st year in a row.

 

Well, this is interesting. On the record and throwing the new commish, who he knows has no power base, under the freight train. This is no longer about playing football in fall 2020. It’s about getting the commish fired.
Report: Every B1G AD was in favor of playing fall CFB season

 

Boone-doggle.

 

OK, I laughed. Never pretended it was a football factory ... just no more Chuck Amato, please ...

 

I'm sure those four sports will help them save ... well ... nowhere near $100 million.

 

Agreed. The Trumpandemic has offered ADs the opportunity to do things they've wanted to do for years.

 

The behavior of the Big 10 schools throughout this pandemic has been really pathetic.

The commish should just give everyone the finger and walk.

 

No masks at all.

 

I don't want to be That Guy. I have always hated the "Kids Today" rhetoric. For generations, older Romans decried the moral failings of the younger generations, and for generations, the older people were wrong. But Good Tebow, people. You know this thing is not a joke. You're the most informed group of college students in history. You know what's going on elsewhere and you presumably want to be able to stay on your college campus. This ain't gonna help.

 

In a few weeks, he's going to look prescient. But he's never going to outlive his failure to release the hounds of information -- charts, graphs, text, everything -- at the time of the decision. I hope he survives because I've heard he's a good guy and a smart guy. It's a terrible time to come into a job like this for anybody. It's especially difficult when you've never dealt with administrators in your career and all of a sudden you have multiple layers of institutional administrators at 14 schools from the DC suburbs to Lincoln, Neb. They hired him because they figured the most important thing he'd have to deal with was a round of new TV negotiations in a year. Then COVID-19 became the Trumpandemic. And the only way any commissioner can handle this sort of thing successfully is if he or she has had experience with high-level administrators in the past.

 

Who the fuck cares what athletics directors think (especially one who runs a has-been athletic department)?
