Is he is taking his son who is the QB and Travis Hunter with him to Boulder?

Believe they play Nebraska in Week 2 or 3 next fall? That matchup interests because of the head coaches involved?

CU vs Nebraska is an old timey Big 8 rivalry. I’d wager that Coach Prime is going to bring as many kids as he can and work the transfer portal hard. He’ll need to, CU is almost completely devoid of talent

Would love to see the Buffs get back to some kind of relevance.

good 2nd adjustments by Michigan. O'Connell was incredible for Purdue; dropping dimes all over the place.

the Sanders hire is fantastic for Colorado. They are a bit of a sleeping giant program imo. They have excellent facilities and they will have modest expectations to start, giving Sanders some time to get his players installed.

Fully expecting Georgia, Michigan TCU and OSU in the playoffs

And there it is official. Georgia faces Ohio state and Michigan faces TCU

Guess Saban’s paid spot at halftime of the Big10 title game didn’t pay off. Good, they didn’t deserve to be there and that entire interview was cringey

I'm going to laugh when Wisconsin or (both) Oklahoma State have to opt out of their bowl game because they won't have enough players to field competitive teams due to the Transfer Portal. Lol

It's something the bowls (collectively) are going to have to figure out how to deal with. Hard to stop players from opting out but now with NIL/compensation allowed maybe there is a way to financially incentivize players to participate. Maybe 'career insurance' so compensate for expected earnings in the NFL if they sustain an injury or something similar.

I'm not laughing at all about this. Bowl season is one of my favorite times of the year, it sucks when the games are neutered by opt outs.

Edit:

Different topic but Hendon Hooker not being a finalist for the Heisman is brutal. I'd have him as my second pick after Caleb Williams.

What a clown program. A head coach making $95 million to not win anything. Bobby Petrino and DJ Durkin as the possible coordinators. Steve Addazio is also on the staff. Is Art Briles busy?

@chris_hummer:
Missouri State HC Bobby Petrino has emerged as a candidate in Texas A&M's offensive coordinator search, sources tell @247Sports He's expected to interview with the Aggies in the coming days.

Ken Niumatalolo is out at Navy. Shocked. Impossible job without other schools use of transfer portal & NIL.

Mike Leach is in the hospital and he may not be doing well. Nothing confirmed yet but it doesn’t sound good. Hope he ends up being okay.

Hoping for the best as well. Sources are saying he suffered a massive heart attack.

Leach has passed away. The man was a National treasure.

Such a fun personality and there's nobody really like him.

RIP Coach Leach.

I still remember the last minute Mike Crabtree touchdown when Texas Tech beat Texas.

As a WSU fan, I even managed to get a Mike Leach bobblehead when I drove down to Pullman to see my first ever college football game.

The fake script he planted when he was an OC in Oklahoma -- just legendary.

I have his book, Swing your Sword, and read how he once peed on a neighbor's dog when he was a kid.

One of a kind.
