NCAA rules on Brendan Sorsby per ESPN

I agree, that would be a great deterrent for this NIL fiasco. -
While there are teams outside the B1G and SEC that play big boy football and produce lots of NFL players they are not playing schedules full of other similarly talented teams. In a typical season probably 2/3 of the playoff teams should come from the two major conferences and 1/3 from the rest of the football world, and I think the computer rankings would bear that out. As some have already posted, computer rankings should probably be paramount for the playoffs. Then both the B1G and the SEC teams would feel free to schedule a marquee OOC game every season. USC and ND would resume. Texas could play tOSU, Michigan, or Penn State again. Florida would not be disadvantaged for having Miami and Fl St OOC. If 'Bama chose all patsies it would work against them, not for them. In a rational world.

Coach Vic is not changing...
DanielOnorato replied to Califashorn75's topic in On Texas Football Forum
I think what haunts him most is that he knew he recruited and built the right team. Unfortunately immaturity and malcontents and a poor shooting night for Maddy B didn't help. I believe in Vic and I appreciate that he has a vision and is going to see it through. Texas is going to be a final four team under his supervision and tutelage next season. People want transfer portal, he knows what he has. I will miss kyla oldacre big time. Loyal longhorn who was tremendous. -
Great stories, could listen to him for hours

Great to listen to him this morning…A true tough guy & Longhorn legend…

I’d like to hear more of the specifics. Strength of record should be well down the list of considerations. It’s more difficult to do, but that can be manipulated. The strength of schedule is far more appropriate, but I’m guessing that needs tweaking. It’d be appropriate for teams only playing 4 games away from home should be dinged for that. And when you play 42 days away from home, those 3rd and 4th games are more difficult than they otherwise would be if they were the 1st and 2nd (last game of a trip). And whatever morons couldn’t figure out margin of victory years ago sure shouldn’t be consulted now. Winning by 28 is far more impressive than winning by 1 and should be incorporated. But, no two late TDs to win by 28 is not the same as leading by 28 heading into the 4th. We have stats that remove garbage time. That can be modeled here and include caps of some sort too. I am not certain where you the draw the line, but Travis out as QB at FSU is enough to leave them out several years ago. But when Dallas Wilson plays his first game and it’s against our backup CB, that is a factor. I don’t think he or Brown played versus Ole Miss at Ole Miss. That was tight late. I don’t expect that thought to be modeled, but I would hope that the committee would delve that deep into things. The Aggies tackling the interior pass rusher for ND on the last play shouldn’t be forgotten either I do not believe the committee has a great grasp on games because I’d wager they’re too busy glad handing and focusing on their programs to give tons of attention elsewhere. Hell, I don’t think are a ton of people that have a great understanding, but there’s a lot more people that take in more live action and have better insight than they do.

You mean his wife's share of his money, right?? -
A coach we know and respect??? 🤔

I don't mind playing tough OOC opponents, we're not scared to play them even when we were down. No reason to change that now since we're up. But I don't want to play ND because they literally have a whole schedule full of cupcakes and skate on by during the season. Either join a conference or you should not be allowed to compete for the playoffs.

From the article: “Per sources in the room, one league coach whose team was in the playoff mix but did not make the field said he felt worse after hearing the presentation than he did when his team was excluded on Selection Sunday.”
