Per his twitter the other day:
If CFB commissioner for a day:
1) Get rid of divisions
2) Everyone plays same number of league games
3) Win your conference to compete for National Championship
4) Move ineligible downfield barrier to 1 yard instead of 3 yards
5) Give players their Name & Likeness back
Your Turn

I always forget how to link up twitter to OB forum, but, I thought his tweet was interesting. I am guessing the divisions are the huge conferences with east/west or north/south divisions. I think name/likeness would be good, but, can also see this get way out of control with boosters. Otherwise, nice list.

I tell ya he was tough as a QB at Colorado till he met the Griffins and the Oline of Texas in the playoff game, man they hammered that guy bad..finally had to pull him , knock him out I think, the coach shoulda pulled him before the last hit

I believe it was Drew Kelson that rang Klatt’s bell.

Pretty awesome Klatt doesn’t hold that against Texas like Andre Ware does his experience.

There was a story about Klatt concerning that game. That concussion was severe he had ten concussions while he played but the after effects of that concussion was a shocking example of what can happen when you have as many concussions as Klatt had.

Unless you want to do something about targeting, you are worried about the wrong thing. But he is right about allowing OL downfield on RPO, it is BS. I would like to see some rule changes to give the defense a chance.
