Great article about The State of College Football & Deion

I don't really care about "Coach Prime" but the article isn't really about him, it is about how college football has changed and that what really matters is 'eyeballs' on your program. A terrific few lines: Many institutions, administrators, and journalists who were once worthy stewards of college football are acting like ratings-hungry network executives. Suddenly, drawing eyeballs is all that matters to them. These are people who deep down know that college football has taken a disastrous turn but want to hang on as long as they can; there’s a kind of “I for one welcome our new insect overlords” fatalism at work among this crowd. They might not like what’s happening, but maybe if they can talk themselves into it, they can survive it.

The Deion Sanders Hype Train Is Probably About to Derail
Deion Sanders, the new coach of the University of Colorado Buffaloes football team, is everywhere at the moment. But the hype train around him is probably about to derail.


Oh and, Clemson over the Noles 31 - 24! Go Tigers!!

Aren't they reptile overlords?

They're overlords, species is irrelevant.
