28 seconds left in the first half back in their own end, almost to midfield. 2 timeouts. Looks like a passing down. It sure looks like a passing formation.
I watched every defensive play and to say I am thrilled is an understatement. The only problem is they sometimes only have 3 down and in that regard they look like Craponi sets.
Also wonder how this impacts a kid like Tylor Perry, whose eligibility JUST ran out before this season because of JUCO time served.
I guarantee guys like him have probably already filed lawsuits asking to be granted immediate eligibility and reinstatement.
This is a horrible ruling as we are on our way to having career minor league football players sponsored by colleges.
It also means that North Texas and all other colleges will benefit from more developed talent.
Hurts high school kids who want to go to 4-year institutions the most. Why recruit a HS kid when you can get a player who is two years more developed?
It has been established in court that the NCAA cannot establish any sort of eligibility rules. Can the individual conferences band together and put forward some sort of eligibility guidelines and/or transfer portal restrictions that makes sense?
3rd and 2 with 28 seconds left, go 3 down make them run the ball because that is what the box is telling you to do. They run the ball and burn a Timeout and have 24 seconds to try and score down 2 scores and they are kicking the ball off to SHSU after halftime so if they don't get a TD they're looking at a 3 score deficit.
