Saving CFB

Posting memorable and impactful college football games that would’ve been just another forgettable crazy game that fades out of memory with a 24 team playoff

@Shaib2bMVP @ValhallaKnox @jlkurtz The bottom 40-50 FBS teams never should’ve made the jump to begin with. They don’t have the funds.

JMU is using something like 70% of their athletic department is funded by tuition and fees that SHOULD be going to academics, not funneled into a for profit athletic department

@TomGrothJr You’re not making any sense

Unlimited movement prohibits multi-year contracts. If that’s the players stance you won’t even get to the bargaining table

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@TomGrothJr @Stumpf_Brian How tf are buying an investment and being employed in a closed market system the same thing?

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@TomGrothJr @Stumpf_Brian Brother you contradicted your own self.

Enforceable multi-year contracts and unlimited movement are opposites

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@TomGrothJr @Stumpf_Brian That was a terrible analogy that makes no fuckin sense btw

Non-competes exist in contract law all over the place

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@JoshPateCFB Colleges have been recruiting more international players than make it to the NFL… international popularity absolutely benefits college football just as much, if not more, than the NFL

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

You’re not getting that kind of rev share “with unlimited mobility”. That’s outrageous.

When the collective bargaining time comes you can bet multi-year contracts and transfer fee payouts will be part of the deal. The players will have to sacrifice some of that freedom for a bigger piece of the pie

@nateburleson The schools are allowed to offer less money, right?

Like, they’re all competing with each other outbidding and spending outrageous amounts while raising costs onto ticket buyers… and then complaining about how it’s unsustainable. Like yeah, stop spending so damn much

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@Mr704intheQC @texaggie9325 JMU is one of many schools that recently jumped up to FBS and their spending is likely not sustainable unless they can win now and make lots of 💰.

FBS should be divided further between the schools that are able to sustainably fund top tier athletic programs and those who can’t

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@TomGrothJr @Stumpf_Brian Which is used to fund the entire athletic department

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@valleyofthedogs @CFBAlerts_ I don’t schedule the games… I imagine it would get less tv viewers which makes it harder to warrant travel costs

But would be an incredible experience for the young men… and tbh the same experience for those Brazilian locals who don’t have a lot of American football knowledge

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@TheRealCruzOx Unfortunately they want to ruin the meaning of who is or isn’t #2 so that we all tune in to #24 vs #32 to see whose gonna get blasted by 9-3 Alabama in the playoffs

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@valleyofthedogs @CFBAlerts_ TCU and North Carolina open their season this year in Ireland. Multiple random midwestern teams have done the same the past few years.

American football simply isn’t popular yet in these other countries. It has very little to do with the teams/brands.

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@NwoBuck @macfbenthusiast @jones_jerod @DouglasTS The MAC football enthusiast obviously

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@valleyofthedogs @CFBAlerts_ Good thing neither of those schools were playing there I guess

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@lo9406 @andysparks78 @JakeBequette91 There technically wouldn’t be a law limiting it… the law would allow a commissioner of college athletics set a limit on what an individual program can spend on wages, not how much an individual player can make. Just like many other sports leagues.

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@SkoldenDomer @DouglasTS @RossDellenger Indiana didn’t even have a top 30 talent roster. To act like they won because of some massive spend vs an incredible job of coaching and development is an entirely disingenuous argument with no evidence other than Mark Cuban being a celebrity.

Every P4 program has billionaires

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@ralphieboywvu @BradPowers7 People don’t tune in when wins and losses don’t matter.

I already proved this with college basketball but you keep moving the goalposts because “theyre different” so I’m not gonna argue with you

[Saving CFB @SavingCFB]

@ralphieboywvu @BradPowers7 Adding 8-4 Iowa to the playoff is going to prevent people from tuning into regular season games of teams they’re not fans of because those games are no longer significant.

It’s clear you don’t care about or even want a high quality regular season, have a good day 👋🏻
