Well, if he's offering to Texas kids, and he's not getting them then maybe he's not the recruiter we think he is.

He's not elite, we know that.

Ketch my issue is NIL was supposed to be about helping kids in college everyone knows the NCAA was so stupid I mean they refused to help kids go home because their mom passed away.
A scholarship to a school should mean something but it now just seems like the highest dollar figure is all that matters this new system helps a school like Texas but my belief is still this is college not pro football

Fall camp me.

I agree that the new playoff will overshadow the conference title games. And I agree that it likely will make the sport more exciting.

But fans will still very much care about conference titles, not only for bragging rights but also because the four top-ranked conference champions get a first-round bye. That's a big deal.

Particularly this year--the last year in the big12

that Behrens dude seems like a bit of a bitch. Dude always has his panties in a wad when it comes to anything mentioned Texas.

Every time I see him on X (twitter) I think he's Dennis from It's Always Sunny.

No one is going to care about conference titles.

Conference Titles a like Pro Bowls when you have them it looks good on the Resume. Its good for The School and Coaches accolades. But most fans will care about the CFP. Coaches will 1st get judged based off making the CFP, then their W-L record in CFP.

Is there a reason why some of these kids shouldn't be millionaires?

The problem with NIL is only the super duper blue chips warrant the huge pay days the 6.1 and some 6.0 rated recruits. The rest is all about development. College football is so much better when your team is one of the Joneses. I couldn't imagine being a fan of a non-blueblood.
