Mean Green 93-98

Yeah, take that all out, and he'll still probably make triple the next two years what I'll make my entire life.

For those who don't remember, this is the guy who transferred out of Tulane to Duke. The guy will never have to work a day in his life. Now let the bidding wars truly begin. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/highest-paid-player-in-college-football-history-transfer-qb-darian-mensahs-duke-deal-is-sign-of-times/

Respectfully disagree. The committee's job shouldn't be to create enticing matchups. A 1-loss Big 10 team or a 2-loss ACC team who played in its conference championship game should expect to get the nod over a 3-loss SEC team who didn't play in its conference championship game. And, by the way, the others in contention for those last playoff spots have also had bad losses.

Is #12 retired? I might add, that our signee's name is "Jimerson," just one m.

We offered him in high school, or at least the previous staff did. No idea what the interest would be either way now.

I kind of feel sorry for Jennings. 3 picks, 2 of them pick-sixes in the first half. But as far as their bankrolling fanbase, they can get bent.

This is insane. So seasons played at a JUCO don't affect eligibility at all? What this does is give a huge recruiting advantage to JUCOs over FCS schools and lower, and potentially over G5s. A player thinks he has P2 ability but isn't getting P2 offers? Commit to a JUCO, give yourself 2 years to develop and show what you can do in college ball, then still have just as many years of eligibility to offer as a high school commit would have. We are going to see more of these 24- and 25-year-old college football players going forward. Once again, note who is ruining college football....It's not the NCAA, it's the court system and government (okay, along with ESPN).

Probably going to back up Chandler his first year. Kaelin was 3rd on the depth chart at Nebraska and has 4 years of eligibility remaining, as he never saw the field.

The school pays for those expenses only on an Official Visit, and recruits are only allowed one Official Visit per school.

I imagine he's still in the mix. But Mestemaker's been the next man up all year, so I don't know why that would change now.

None of us was married to Gabe Blair. At least, I don't think so?

Ol' Slim could use a little meat on his bones.

Honestly, it just sounds like a terrible idea for NIU. They're going to torpedo all their others sports...to do what exactly for their football program?

I'd be shocked if he didn't have bidders who could outbid us. Maybe not the kind of offers he thought he could get, but decent offers. Unless whatever injury he had this year was that big a concern going forward. All-conference AAC is good enough to start at plenty of P2/AP2 schools. I'd be interested to hear for certain what it was that made him change his mind.
