NCAA thread v6.0

[Captain Dave Poulin]

I guess Daniels lawyered up & used all the time he missed last year as a reason to bypass sitting out 2020.

I bet he needed every minute of that time away to finish off that mustache. It's barely hanging on even now.

Clemson now with two decommits this cycle after years of not having any.

I guess beyond COVID it’s being surmised that Dabo’s getting hit hard on the recruiting trail with his recent poor comments in regards to protests & a coach of his calling a kid a racial slur.

That’s that guys fault. He served that one up on a tee for opposing coaches & he’d be doing the same thing if the roles were reversed.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

I’m guessing The Opening’s happening.

'Running out of time': Push grows to delay college football season to spring

Its just a matter of time until one of the Power Five conferences breaks and it will be football in the spring at the earliest. I can see the PAC12 going first. The four California schools look to be in the most jeopardy with playing but the States of Arizona, Oregon and Washington are seeing spikes. If the PAC 12 closed up shop, it wouldn't surprise me to see the BIG Ten close it down a day or so later. Maybe the other conferences would give it a try but what for if so many other schools close up.

Usually a good reference for the upcoming draft & beyond.

Penn State has four on the list. DE Jayson Oweh (RS SO), LB Micah Parsons (JR), RB Journey Brown (RS JR), & S Jaquan Brisker (SR)

Ar'Darius Washington made the list! I think he and Devonta Smith are the main two I'm way higher than consensus on going into the year.

I just ordered my Phil Steele Mag today. Will be quite the collectors item when this season gets cancelled.

Oregon/ASU '19 is coming up next on ESPNU if you wanna watch Lenoir get burned again by Aiyuk.

I personally don't but hey if you're into that kinda thing I don't judge.

Also my girl, Sabrina Ionescu didn't do too hot in her WNBA debut today. 4/17 from the field and 0-8 from 3. Sheesh.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

There's your first really big name. PFF has him CB1. Easily could have been a top 5-10 pick.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

I fully expect Parsons to opt out for Penn State. Freiermuth could have left last year if he really wanted to so not really sure there. Brown could probably opt out but could have left last year too. Oweh probably needs more tape. Same with the rest of the roster.

I’m quite angry that the ACC is bailing out Notre Dame by letting them play a conference schedule with them.

On the other hand if Clemson does their normal conference sleepwalk Notre Dame might offer up a challenge.

Meh, I still would have preferred Notre Dame to have to sit at home all year after being cowards for years.

And I really dislike Clemson.

NBC with the sad face in that scenario.

The ACC needs someone to challenge Clemson at some point. Sad that ND might be the only option.

I'm not sure you see a lot of opting out. Most guys think they can still help their draft stock with a 3rd and 4th year. Plus, despite what anyone says, there are still NFL teams that will blacklist players for opting out. Questions on commitment, heart, etc. will run rampant.

It was never going to realistically happen though. They ultimately bring money to the table that’s why they get concessions made for them.

I do think they’re going to join a conference sooner than later though. Probably the ACC.

Yeah I think the 1% will ultimately do it if they do (the Lawerence’s, Fields’, Parsons’, Sewell’s, etc. of the world).

Oh yeah, certainly. I'm kind of glad that Georgia doesn't have any preseason sure-fire first round guys. All of their NFL bound talent still needs another year of film to elevate their standing.

Off topic, but does anyone know what happens if the season is cancelled and the impact it makes on recruiting and scholarship limits? Or has the NCAA not even addressed that yet?

They haven’t addressed anything to this point. I think it’s on the back burner for now until the time comes & other stuff gets sorted out.

 

[Asnito]

I think we're probably looking at a spring season. The only teams that could pull it off would be the power 5 and even some of them would struggle.

Some would say MLS talk does belong in an amateur sports thread, @Hollywood Couturier.
