It will be nice like the old days (not so long ago) if a high potential G6 player like Winfield stuck around for the remainder of his eligibility. The odds are against making it to the NFL even for very talented CFB players. So the vast majority of today's CFB players have a small window to earn income playing. Any G6 player looking to job hop to a P4 school greatly enhances his resume by first getting experience as a full year starter. If a player's goal is maximizing his income in their five years of eligibility they need playing time.

I still not sure a move to a P4 is a positive move if you are not going to get playing time - no matter where you play, if you are NFL caliber, the NFL will find you . . . money on the other hand may not find you if you stay G6 . . .

argumentative

was not intended to be - found it with a google search and thought it might be interesting for consideration for whatever value it may or may not have . . .

I liked the info.

Good for future research when I have more time and a spreadsheet.

The thing about that is transferring doesn't really guarantee you a boost in pro chances. Look like at how many transferred and how many made it to the NFL. Except for Trey Amos and the o linemen, who would have likely made it anyway and the late Kyren Lacy, none of the skill positions really got opportunities. The skill position players that left for Houston are floundering around, either watching from the sidelines or not getting any attention.
We can only hope that players are seeing some of those as cautionary tales.

I feel like 2 dropped passes per game per team is too many. I put the over/ under at 1.5

Did we drop 6 passes against Rice? If felt like 100

I think we all lost count that game lol

after their players played dirty ball and started a massive brawl at the end of the game I doubt there will be any push to continue this series

That would be a mistake and a shame

With the appearance being comfortable in the Sunbelt and never the appearance of looking elsewhere, Louisiana will never capture the imagination of the fans and subsequent dollar flow.

With Tech coming back it will only get worse. Conference perception will be at low not seen since UNT represented as champ with a losing record.

The fan base has duplicated what the Ice Gator fan base did when they fully realized the poor quality of the conference they were in.

The only solution is to give the appearance of being upwardly mobile and I'm afraid that ship has sailed.

ps I still enjoy the actual game, but not the message.

Agree the ship has sailed, in fact its sailed away multiple times. Have to think CFB alignment is far from being settled. TV networks will force more consolidation (carrot n stick). A SBC-CUSA merger (gross) wouldn't surprise me in the next five years. Not that we have many options but just playing not to lose in the conference realignment game is a recipe to lose. If TX St. can get into the PAC 8, so can UL and convince Ark St., USM on board, too. AAC is first choice but seems like the PAC could still be open for business.
