  1. UAB and their community have stepped it up to their credit. Don't think of it as UTSA, it is "SA" they would be interested in. Think this, if it happens, will be regretted. They have a "hot" coach; when he leaves what happens. Their facilities are sub-par at best.
  2. While were guessing ... What happens if the B12 comes back and takes Memphis also?
  3. I still think they add Memphis and someone from the West (UNLV, San Diego, Boise)
  4. The reason they are considering changing the rules to allow up to 7 transfers a year to have their scholarships "replaced" has nothing to do with caring about HS recruits and everything to do with P5 schools poaching players, and more importantly - having their players (backups) poached.
  5. Personally, tired of the uniform of the week club. We need to stick with something and be consistent. No wonder most people have no clue to who we are. is this the 3rd different helmet scheme in 3 games?
  6. Soon we will be looking back on the days when HS kids were recruited to most schools. Not going to be worth the time and resources to recruit and train for another school. Teams will be made up of transfers soon. P.S. - Something has to be done about the recruiting of players by other schools. Don't want to hear the Bull shit that the schools do not control what the boosters do. If a school, or someone representing a school reaches out directly, or through a 3rd party, to a player or their families/friends before they enter the portal there needs to be severe consequences. Schools need to lose scholarships and be banned from post season play. High School coaches who help recruit their old players should be punished also.
  7. I believe (most likely wrongly) the AAC he is trying to force a merger of some sort with the MWC. If they don't completely merge I think there could be a possibility that the remaining Mountain West Conference teams could get pulled into CUSA and perhaps some of the eastern C USA teams could end up in the sunbelt or MAC
  8. Just to spite the UTEP fans I would love them to invite NMSU, if even as a non-football member.
  9. The TCU head coach did his best to scare his boosters straight, saying the whole recruiting class is at risk if they don't put money in Frogs' pockets. https://footballscoop.com/news/gary-patterson-nil-tcu-there-is-no-wrong-anymore
  10. These are all great for one play. If it was a series, I would go with the stand against Rice
  11. You guys have done a very good job, I only hope your relator is an Alumni for all of the commissions.
  12. Question for Texas fans - How many times can you "be back" without actually getting back? Disclaimer - Wife if is Texas-Ex so I cannot ask this question at home 🤐
  13. UTSA, if they move to the AAC, will be due to location and nothing else. "Top Performers"; they were hot last year and this year to start. If it is due to their HC and he leaves what will you have? San Antonio and the market are what will sell UTSA. If they decide on being a top performer and facilities, Liberty would have to be considered
  14. One change from the plan in that story: Teams can replace *any* 7 players who enter the portal (even if they're dismissed). https://footballscoop.com/news/ncaa-reportedly-raise-25-man-scholarship-limit One part that, IMO, was put in as "we care" One of the key drivers for political action here was the industry's fear that fewer and fewer players would be signed directly out of high school. If they are concerned about HS recruiting then they should say that some amount of the 7 must go to HS players
