I think that is a short sighted solution to minor temporary problem. My educated speculation is that financially the current bowl system isn’t sustainable long term. The lessor bowls without bigger brands in them aren’t a good TV product. And even watered down version of the bigger brand teams in are Not much better TV products. I don’t know when or where these other bowls games will be played so it is likely I will miss them on TV. I don’t think my perspective as a College Football fan varies that much from the average fan when it comes to bowl games in 2024. G5 is going to establish some kind of “NIT” alternative for teams left out of the CFP. Or bowl games featuring G5 teams 7-5 and below (who aren’t 3rd place or conference championship losers) are going to go away. So until that happens it is foolish to craft your team to make sure you retain players for your mediocre bowl games that will likely draw far less than the best home game on when people are still dreaming of bigger accomplishments. Being in a bowl game is no longer a good measuring stick of your program’s success. It literally means you are average. Recruits aren’t changing their opinion of a program based on a bowl appearance.

That's sweet he found a school that both he and his girlfriend can attend together.

North Carolina names Bill Belichick next head coach Does anyone else remember when Barry Switzer expressed an interest in Coaching North Texas in the early 90's?

The portal is absolutely brutal for the postseason, somethings gotta give here. I know ya'll were hit hard too. Thankfully our QB1 is running out of eligibility and can't bail on us.

I agree with this. I much prefer establishing a tradition of the opening game of the season be against them(first verses FBS level team if we open against FCS). Why be concerned with what a deluded version of an underwhelming 6-6 Mean Green team does against a watered down version of any 7-5 or 6-6 G5 team? No, we need to pick one. Establish a scheduling tradition with them and ignore the others.
