Now that he's away from CBN and his 1970s offense, Brown may have a shot to become a decent QB.

I wish him the best. But I figure he should look a little down the food chain like the MAC or the AAC

Coastal Carolina is looking

It could be worse...

Ouch. Much easier to absorb though when you have had top 5 classes for a decade

 

[Back Alley Gator]

We could have won 9 games with that lineup

We should have won 8 with our current one. (Ark, MO, FSU).

I have no idea. But that is some talent. I think the portal is actually a good thing. I think it will spread the talent a bit and make football more interesting.

I see it the other way. I’m fine with the overall idea of allowing kids to leave if their circumstances change. That was always the argument. Coaches leave, get fired, etc. and I think it’s ok to have some parameters in place to give them some freedom as well. But this on a whim approach format is not good for anyone. We don’t care as much because we’re not poised for anything next year. But for a team like OhSt who’s close and could be a legit contender next year, they lose a ton of players that they worked hard to recruit and everything gets derailed. I think there needs to be more restrictions placed. Coaches left and got fired, but nothing like the rate we’re seeing here.

What hurts about this one is the fact that he was not only our first IMG breakthrough, but he was also a huge win over uga who had been favored all along. When he was asked, after signing why he chose UF, he stated (paraphrasing) that I could go and make another state’s team great, or I could stay home and make my own state’s team great. There was a sense of pride and shift in the mindset that could’ve carried over. Instead, we completely botch things with him, virtually setting up guys like Kirby and others to say that’s why you don’t stay home. It’s a major blow.

The portal is one thing, but the free agency is not good for college football.
As I've seen other state, there should be limitations on it, at least as it relates to immediate eligibility

Why though, when staffs can say anything they want, make promises, intimate, lead to believe, with no consequences?

 

[Silverback Gator]

Didn't beat Bammar when he had them 4th and 65.

I would laugh if they ditched Freeze, just because it's funny. Don't know if or when Day moves on, but he does not have a multi year guaranteed contract like so many other big program coaches. I wonder why? He's making a ton but maybe Ohio State just smarter than other ADs that come to mind.

Well damn. There goes all my hope up in ashes.
His buyout is more than Napier's.
Maybe he will just tell THE people up there to stick it, he's going to Florida, and no buyout is warranted.

A man has no course but to dream, when his reality is crushed.

A well coached UF team beats Utah this year, and we should never lose to uk. What a waste of a season.

Maybe I am misreading this article, but I read it to say he has 5 years on his contract and a buyout of $46M if he is fired this year.

Put the restrictions through NIL. If they leave through their own volition, outside of medical reasons, they have to pay back the NIL plus penalties.

Karl couldn't win 9 games with the KC Chiefs starting line up...

 

[Concrete Helmet]

The problem with him is he is not good enough to play safety. He’s kind of a tweener. Probably should be a linebacker, but he does not want to play linebacker.

Ummm... I remember others and myself saying the same thing about a guy named Marcel Harris....I don't know about you but I would have just about given a left nut to have a Marcel Harris back there this season than the Keystone cops we got 90% of the time...

Cause that school carries the bag.
The student doesn't have to accept it.

I'm not saying a kid can't transfer. But the free agency is the immediate eligibility. Sure transfer, but being able to do so and always getting immediate eligibility? It's not even the NFL at that point...it's worse.

Good we have way too many oline
