Yeah, so was the holocaust, let’s not conflate historic with good for the sport.

I have covered college football, college basketball, the NBA, the NFL and the Olympics… I have been to the Masters, the Ryder Cup, and the Open Championship.

This Indiana Football run is historic.

@mattbegreatyt **Anywhere with a billionaire alum willing to pump $100M to spend in the transfer portal**

@OregonHomer That team ran y’all boys off the field, was a NC before the first half ended

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

Any program in the country can do it if you have a billionaire giving you NIL money to buy 6th year seniors who will be working at enterprise next year

[Ari Wasserman @AriWasserman]

Curt Cignetti: "Are there eight draft picks on this team? Probably not. But the whole was better than the sum of its parts."

... Something no coach in my professional career could say while sitting at the podium victorious after winning the national title.

Indiana changed the sport today. It made this message clear: Any program in the country can do it if it's done right.

@Tilbert_Champ @realJeremyCarl @seanmdav Agreed, a hard cap on transfers at 1 or by year at end of “sophomore” season seems like it could be appropriate. College free agency is silly, but it’s particularly silly when a college graduate “transfers” to play at a school they aren’t even attending classes at

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

Why does every one of these refuse to include the context machine. Cignetti is a great coach, no doubt, but let’s look at how the landscape has changed in those two years and where the NIL money came from. He doesn’t do this if he comes to Indiana even just a few years prior.

[Joe Pompliano @JoePompliano]

Curt Cignetti took over the worst program in college football history and then proceeded to win the school’s first-ever national championship within just two years. It's the most remarkable coaching job in the history of sports.

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

@osuzack They had a billionaire backed NIL and an average roster age comparable to that of an NFL team. I’m not sure you know what you’re talking about here, the landscape has changed for the worse

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

@Tilbert_Champ @realJeremyCarl @seanmdav I like to think the NCAA will take some steps to combat some of the issues that have come out of the NIL transfer portal era. It starts with hard capping transfers and hard capping eligibility to 5 years, outside of extreme circumstances

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

State of capitalism is so bad that even a college national football championship can be billionaire bought

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

Better team for sure won, but it’s gonna be tough to see something objectively bad for the sport be paraded around as some great underdog story

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

@seanmdav And your NIL money is billionaire backed

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

@seanmdav That’s what happens when you let dudes stay play for 7 years in college

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

@MikeSanchize Toney should’ve never fielded that punt

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

That’s Toney’s fault for fielding that punt btw

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

@MikeSanchize It was a fun year buddy

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

Your take on the Kenny half time show says a lot about you, be careful lol

[MultiVersus @multiversus]

MUSSSSTAAAARRRRRRDDDDDDD

[Big Smooth @7feetdeep]

😭😭😭 it’s not that serious I promise
