It's definitely a step up. There are some strong teams in the Championship League. Most were relegated from Premier so too weak for English Premier League but tough in the CL. Most recently West Ham United, Burnley, Wolverhampton. West Brom and Stoke City are fairly decent.

Wrexham is in the Championship League so he might get to meet Ryan Reynolds :smile:

The Columbus Crew will transfer star midfielder Max Arfsten to England's Middlesbrough FC, a source confirmed July 31.

Middlesbrough has agreed to pay up to a $7.5 million transfer fee, while the Crew retains a clause giving them an undisclosed fee if Arfsten is sold by his new team.

It could be a short-lived record as Mbappe is only a few goals behind Messi.

What was wrong with the 4/5 rule? You had 5 years to play 4. It allowed for redshirting in the extra year.

Covid and the portal turned the whole process into a cluster and you can blame the NCAA for the mess and mismanagement. Having 27 years olds playing against 19 and 20 year olds created a totally uneven playing ground.

No Summer pre-season camp is where they would bring in freshman to work out with the varsity, Most would be sent home and their practices did not start until the start of Fall quarter which was late September. I helped out with the freshmen team for a year when my eligibility was up in '87.

Occasionally several freshmen would stay with the varsity.

Actually informal 7v7 and passing drills occurred in the Spring during the Coach Sochor years. Linemen were expected to be in the weight room and watch film starting in January. Informal meant shorts and t-shirts and the coaches were not allowed to attend. Funny thing is that the coaches knew who was working out and who wasn't.

Even in much of summer (preseason) the D is head and shoulders above the O. Both have been complicated since the Arp/Foster/Sochor/Biggs teams. It takes longer to get the O reads and timing down.

My wife and i gave. Go Ags!

My gut feeling is that NDSU will do just fine. They are just built differently.

Todd was a senior when I was a freshman. Totally great guy.

Everyone needs to chill. The wheels at Davis turn painfully slow which in reality is a good thing unlike our friends to the east. When I was recruited out of high school one on the pitches was a new stadium that was in the works. 20 years after I graduated the stadium was built lol. Things will fall into place. Have faith.

Great news!

Being a South Carolina fan {2 of our kids graduated from there}, Illinois has become a classless POS thanks to the head coach.

douche comes to mind.

yep

Sac could play Lincoln (CA) 4 or 5 times. It could lead to 4 or 5 easy wins.

Have you been to the University of South Carolina or the University of Kentucky? THE USC is definitely not small with over 38,000 students. The university is blocks away from the state capital and has a very large footprint. Vandy is smallish with a bit over 13,000 students but Kentucky has almost 36,000 students. Our two oldest children graduated from South Carolina however when our daughter was in high school we visited a number of SEC schools while she was being recruited to play soccer. Most of the schools are pretty impressive.

Damn sorry I forgot. Okay they can play at the Christian Brothers field.

Perhaps Dr. Delusional will opt to start a new conference with the likes of UMass, Ball State, Louisiana-Monroe, UNC Charlotte, Akron, Georgia State, Oregon State, and Oklahoma State. The league could be sponsored by Flex Tape (which does not work lol) and Sac can play their games at a local junior high school field.
