The system currently has a bias toward the big schools and conferences, who can get invited to a bowl game without a winning record. I think the line to too many bowl games had already been crossed when this exception was allowed. Why draw an arbitrary line here?
It would be played at the Citadel.
Supposedly it was gonna be at The Citadel, which makes sense, relatively easy to make it look full, but yeah having spent a week there in Feb. it could have been a nightmare.
Annapolis is only slightly better since the stadium is away from the downtown and a bit more suburban.
Somehow, I find myself watching the Sun Bowl every year. Hey, look, it's a dessert and it's snowing and Miami's players look really cold. Cool.
Charleston bowl would be really cool for everyone involved. But depending on where they do it, it could create horrendous traffic before and after the game. Excellent example of an older city that was thoroughly unprepared for it's eventual size and too historical to make dramatic changes to make it better.
How the "Sun" Bowl has survived this long is truly one of life's mysteries.
I won't lie, when starting to read the headline, I was getting excited that the ncaa was actually doing something to unc. Bummer.
Fuente isn't playing his cards close to his vest, he's playing them under his vest.
I think I speak for all the heterosexual guys here when I say that I look forward to seeing what Fuente has under his vest.
Indeed it is.
Lefty tried this play a lot, it just never panned out for a lot of reasons. Bubble wasn't effective having defense not respect it and sometimes Brewer and the receiver just couldn't connect.
Watch Chuck Clark bite hard on the bubble to give Bucky 1 on 1 with no safety help. Wish we could see Bucky's "stalk and go" to get by Adonis.
Also notice Mook having to respect the quick play action to Travon. Even Moto flys up to fill his gap on the play fake. This is exactly how this play is supposed to work.
Edit: This is so pretty, I just keep watching. Have to love Terrell Edmunds notice the play and bust his ass from the backside to get back and make a play. That type of effort is awesome to see and can change the outcome of the game.
Yeah HIPPA is really, really strict. Personal example, when my grandmother got real sick and came down with dementia before passing away about 15 years or so ago, my parents had to fight tooth and nail to get any information about how everything was going for her, despite her dementia causing her to not be able to actually comprehend anything the doctors were telling her. Despite them being listed as legal guardians at that point. She wasn't a child, she was conscious and didn't tell (and couldn't understand to tell them) the doctors to share info with my parents, who at that point should have been making the medial decision for her. And here's the thing, if the docs has shared anything with my parents, even with the obvious scenario at hand, they would have been fined out of existence and lost their medical licenses for violating HIPPA.
So yeah... when it comes to medical information, when in doubt, keep your mouth shut.

# | Ty Outlaw, anybody see that Buzz mentioned in a post on Correct, which is why this hypothetical is very unlikely, but it's a good question. HIPAA is pretty strict, so much so that (for example) my email address in our School of Pharmacy cannot be automatically redirected to any other email client due to the potential for clinical information to be sent to it. Never mind the fact that I'm not involved in any research related to patients, it's just a blanket policy. No one wants to get on the bad side of HIPAA.
This from American Beauty?
If Devin hadn't made first contact, the defender wouldn't have deflected the ball. Devin tips the ball onto the defender's hand. The ball would have sailed over the defender without Devin's tip.
My point still stands. This is great in man coverage, and a recipe for disaster with safety help. I hope Devin has the football IQ to recognize the difference in live game situations. If he does, he could be a beast with that kind of adjustment and flexibility.
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that in America, you cannot disclose personal medical information point blank period without the consent of the individual affected. This does not include necessary information to other medical professionals/billing/etc.
My gut tells me you're right. Fuente turned Memphis' offense around by catering it to Paxton Lynch's skill set. I don't expect our offense to be a carbon copy of what Fuente did at Memphis, because we have different players with different skills than what he had at Memphis. And I think Fuente wants to keep all his new wrinkles under wraps until the season starts. Fuente isn't playing his cards close to his vest, he's playing them under his vest. Once opposing conferences have a full season of game film to study, any element of surprise from closed scrimmages and untelevised spring games is lost.
Thing is he went to a 3rd party camp anyway, IMG. So this ruling does not effect them.
This is the point that's being missed in a lot of the conversation surrounding this. The problem was there was undeniably a ton of recruiting going on at these camps, but the setup skirted recruiting guidelines. The trips weren't out of the recruiting budget and didn't count as recruiting visits for the coaching staff.
Under the new setup, coaches from B1G schools can still attend camps held at other locations, they just can't run the camps and have to attend under the auspices of being a recruiter. That's specifically what the coaching staffs at Michigan and Penn State were trying to avoid, and that's what prompted other members to object.
I agree, I was talking more from thinking about the medical staff, I hope that if Outlaw suits up, he is no question healthy enough to do so. Again, if the doc says he is a go, I trust it and welcome it!
Am I reading this right? This is a kid who lives in Michigan that had to go to Florida to be seen by the recruiters in Michigan? Without satellite camps, this kid who lives in Michigan would have never had the opportunity to show the people at Michigan his talent... in Florida... ('nuff said)
Lets say the NCAA allowed satellite camps in-state, wouldn't it be nice to tack on a requirement of community service? Give something back to the community that morally (and in some cases financially) supports the school?
Feel free to let me know if you want to carpool. There's always room in the Jeep as it's just me this trip.
I'd be onboard with this if the bowls would do away with putting the participating schools on the hook for a guaranteed allotment of (generally terrible) tickets. Bowl games offer programs diminishing returns as you slide down the bowl ladder, to the point that most schools actually lose money in the existing structure. Opening up bowls to more .500 and below teams is just going to carry that many more untenable mandates for athletic departments that probably don't have the extra cash to go around.
