That spring 2024 power grab by the B1G/SEC will continue to skew college sports (and haunt everyone who went along with it out of pure super league fear) for quite a while.
Some news in this story about Playoff expansion. Yormark was very upset Big Ten/SEC/ND leaders ran the negotiations with ESPN, leading to a blowup a few weeks ago.

So many other things to remember and celebrate Sir Patrick Stewart for... but this has to be one of the best line readings in the history of The Simpsons
Big game tonight in Elkview - Class AAA No. 1 @HHHuskiesFB hosts No. 5 and defending state champ Princeton here at Husky Stadium.
@JumpinJack123 and I will have the call live on @961kws - kickoff is at 7, tune in! #wvprepfb

This is chickenshit behavior by Maryland. Your SIDs should be communicating directly to media, not hiding and calling the cops.
For @testudotimes, @JudeWilkenfeld and I were outside Jones-Hill House trying to get players to comment. An athletics staffer took pictures of us, and a police dispatch was called for suspicious activity; a cop and 2 cop cars pulled up, and officers ID’d us and asked us to leave.

Here is (part) of Central Michigan head coach Matt Drinkall's quote in opposition to the proposed 24-team College Football Playoff:
On location in Jackson County tonight as unbeaten Class AAA No. 1 @HHHuskiesFB hits the road to take on Ripley.
@JumpinJack123 and I are on the call live at 7 on @961kws - tune in! #wvprepfb
College football just might not be for me anymore
The thing about 24 that bothers me most is…
Who is this for?
It’s not because TV was begging for it. ESPN had to be convinced.
It’s not for a boatload of new cash. Losing conf champ games is gonna make this a minimal gain.
It’s not because the 22nd team has any shot at a natty. It doesn’t.
It’s certainly not done with the health, safety, or academic success of the players in mind since they don’t even get a say in this.
It’s entirely to appease the people donating the money that keeps a financially irresponsible business model afloat. It’s discounting success so schools can say “look what your donation bought.”
It’s an industry hellbent on treating investors and bosses as the customer, and customers as an infinite resource that will keep coming back no matter what.
lol that was @chuckmcgill not Mike
