Re: Thin with OL for bowl

I think it's likely that the starting OL will be some mix of Rouse (LT), Heath Ozaeta (LG), Joshua Bates (C) Mettauer (RG), Jacob Sexton (RT), and/or possibly Caleb Shaffer (RG & LG). Since Bird and Green are in the Portal, and Guyton and Raym declaring for the NFL , they won't be practicing wit...

Re: SEC Fact of the Day

When I lived and worked in Alabama during the mid 1970's, Auburn was looking for their identity (I think they still are). They were the War Eagles, the Plainsmen and of course the Tigers. Eventually they might find one that fits and stick with it.

Re: If you Could

I have some suggestions for the NIL/Transfer Portal problem. They won't be popular, but it would change how both operate. They may not even be practical, but... 1. Allow the player to have the option of being immediately eligible to play, or receiving NIL for his first year, but not both (requiring ...

Re: Gentry Williams

I've also seen where Tawee Walker is practicing and working out with the team for the bowl....even though he's in the portal. Not sure how that works. I can see guys leaving for the nfl playing in the bowl, but I thought if you hit the portal you were done.....anyway gives us a little depth there i...

Re: Unrestricted College Free Agency

The volume of "free agents" in the NCAA Portal is immense. ON3 is showing that just 2 days of the first Portal window for 2023-2024 since the portal opened (including underclassmen, grad transfers and HC change issued waivers), these numbers 2023 2,735 ENTERED 1,693 COMMITTED 62% 56 WITHDR...

Re: Redshirt Players Eligible?

Wow Bix.....what a complete list. Thanks! To the OP's original post--- I took the gist of her question to refer to running backs that could come in and have a game like Barnes and Sawchuk did in last year's bowl game. Barnes had 117 yds rushing and Sawchuk had 100 yds. So far, I have seen listed on...

Re: Redshirt Players Eligible?

Here's a list of last year signee's that are freshmen. I've noted those that are injured and unavailable, and those that played in 5 or more games and are no longer RS. OFFENSE: Jackson Arnold, quarterback (No longer RS) Jaquaize Pettaway, wide receiver (No longer RS) Cayden Green, offensive lineman...

Re: Redshirt Players Eligible?

Bowl games don't count against redshirt status, as I understand the rule. So all redshirts could play and not lose eligibility. Edit: I went back and found the article (from 2022) that is the basis for my statement that Bowl games don't count against RS status. I believe that the NCAA did this to co...

Re: Transfer Portal News (Opens 4 Dec)

Everyone should buckle up, it's going to be a wild ride between now and January 2 when the Portal closes. All this and they threw in the Early Signing Period (12/20-12/22) just to make things really interesting. Look at the numbers in the 9+ hours since the Portal officially opened, and early grad t...
