I'm out of the loop but just stumbled on a pregame show that No Dak State is in the Mountain West now?

That'll be fun.

Wasn't it OU at least one of the last two years, maybe both?

How does this happen? SEC showing the new kids who's boss?

Yeah I don't know what that's about, but it's BS because I watched Alabama get one cake schedule after the other under Saban and it would be nice to get one of those ourselves.

We're the only team in the country that's going to face seven Top 25 teams this year, and 5 of those 7 are in the top 11 and 4 are in the top 8.

So yeah, I hope the decision makers at the end of the year take that into account when it comes time to decide who gets in if we end up with 2 or 3 losses.
 
The NCAA rules disallow eligibility to anyone paid by a non-NCAA paying football entity. The NCAA has every right to design its eligibility rules, but it can look a lot like a competition-restricting activity/unfair practice.

If he was paid by Texas to play football, he can quit and get paid by LSU later. If it was the Packers instead of Texas, then they deny eligibility.

What legitimate competitive or educational purpose does permanently disqualifying someone because the NFL once paid him to play football serve, exactly, when colleges are now itself permitted to pay its current football players?

The Supreme Court has already ruled the NCAA and colleges are a trust subject to the Sherman Act.

I can see why they're getting challenged left and right in court.

Well hell, let's just go ahead and give them a whole year in the NFL to see if it's right for them, and if not, they get to go back to college to collect more NIL and hope it goes better in the NFL the second time. :picard

First round bust at QB? Go back to college and make a fortune after failing the NFL, why not? Yeah let's not turn college football into the CFL.
