College football week 14 thread: The Greatest Story Ever Toad

Heh. No. 2 is bizzaro to me. In 21 months Heupel took a 3-7 program from uber dumpster fire that lost 30+ transfers to the cusp of the playoffs.

Is that transfer count in one offseason?

Fuck me but they have an argument about No. 1 and especially No. 3.

Damn right. I would think any neutral observer would admit it.

Hooker was great. It's hard to imagine the HS recruit that their allegedly unaffiliated "collective" is paying $8,000,000 will be nearly was good or as important to their program as a Hooker was. His dad is a really good dude. A&T guy. Head of a local school board for several years.

Yes. Although the link states the number (35) was from September 2020-July 2021, so it included players who left during the season, too. They had by far the most transfers of any Power 5 team. Tennessee had fewer than 70 scholarship players in Heupel's first season.

Virginia seniors have been given an extra year of eligibility by the NCAA. So that's two free years, and a redshirt season, for seven total for a small number of players.

Not sure if this applies to players who transfer.

Is that because of the shooting? If so, that's ridiculous. Whatever the reason, why should they get a whole extra season because they had two games canceled?

UTSA’s quarterback announced he would return for a seventh season. Aspercreme needs to get to work on a bowl sponsorship or NIL fund.

Yes. And I agree.

He can take Joe Namath's place on the Medicare Hotline commercials.
