Freeform (formerly ABC Family?) has the strangest mix of programming - Jerry Falwell's nightly, very evangelical news show, featuring live prayers for healing, is sandwiched between very un-evangelical programming such as Harry Potter marathons, shows about teens (and their parents!) discovering alt...

So Petro is basically saying it's probably not smart for these schools that are fighting to push through but the PAC looks bad for not giving the appearance of looking like idiots? Did I get that right? Yes, and Petros’ disappointment agrees that while us western states are exercising a responsibil...

Yea the idea that suspending a single football season would forever end all college sports is beyond idiotic. Not to say it would end college sports, but rather, college sports won’t be what it used to should its cash cow (football) be suspended for however long. For instance we’re already seeing S...

This is super convenient for UConn, who really needs to completely shutter their football program, but could never get away with that from a PR standpoint in normal times. That program loses millions every year, it's impossible to run any department like that. Agree. In almost all facets of having ...

I'd rather build a class this way, by loading up on 3-stars with decent enough offers (Washington St, Colorado, Virginia, etc) rather than aim for the big guns, likely miss, and be left with very little options later. Good on the Staff. Looking forward to more recruiting profiles as they commit.
