2016 NCAA Football Thread

Pretty much the answer I expected

 

I played it from 3 years old until I graduated. I love the sport. I just can't watch it. Bores the hell out of me. I'll watch the World Series.

 

Because the university of Tennessee is a dumpster fire

 

Good news for Devon Gales (Southern player paralyzed against UGA).

Yet multiple sources are putting them in the top 10 saying they'll win the sec east.

Feels like this happens every year with them and they always disappoint. Similar to arky.

 

If there's any credibility to the latest accusations, there's no way they can keep Butch. And that program will once again crumble...brick by brick.

 

I guess the good news for them is, the program doesn't have too far to fall.

 

I wish this were true. The vast majority of college athletics programs run a deficit, subsidized by the school. In 2014, only 24 schools' athletics departments had revenue in excess of expenses.

I don't have a breakdown in the SEC, but if there are only 24 schools in the whole country, I'd imagine that there are only a hand full in the SEC.

Now that there is a good looking trophy....

 

Yet there's supposed to start paying players in the near future...

Still prefer the crystal

 

So do I.... Glad we still get one of those, too.

 

More on athletic departments and money... An AL.com article today about a recent NCAA report in regards to Alabama, which is one of the school with an athletic department in the black.

At the end of the article, it notes that auburn had a $9m surplus in 2015, but had a $13.6M deficit in 2014.

Clemson will make another run, and will win it all in Tampa. Watson will undoubtedly win the Heisman, especially now that they will have their two deep threats back who 1. was missing the entire season (neck injury) and 2. missed the semi vs. Oklahoma and the natty.

 

I guess they'll close that gap some now that all their coaches have jumped ship and have been replaced by graduate assistants and janitors.

 

Henry ran a 4.56 with 22 reps of 225.

UGAs forgotten back, Keith Marshall, ran a 4.27 with 25 reps of 225. I never understood why Schotty didn't use him more last year

 

Found this little gem going through a box of old stuff today.

 

Dayum!! That's beast for a RB!

 

Yea. Don't understand why he was never used.
