Angeli will likely start the year and ND will go from there

Playing ineligible players is an offense that automatically vacates games. It is a significantly worse offense, and therefore draws a significantly harsher penalty. It is like the difference between an illegal motion penalty and a roughing the passer with targeting penalty.

Jaywalking crime.

Maybe they did. Maybe they didn't. You or I or anyone would never know as the coach would never publicly come out and say it if they didnt. So that comment meant shit. And no one cares that you supported it

Joe Alt and his NFL dad made the correct decision to skip the Sun Bowl.

And you agreed with the decision roughly a year ago.

You specifically stated in this Forum you would advise someone in Joe Alt’s position to do the same.

You have been one of the biggest offenders here. You're a USC troll and have sh!tposted and flamed multiple threads this season alone. Take several seats Dennis.

Notre Dame was punished for driving 60 in a 55 mph zone, where the DOT had just changed the speed limit to 65 but hadn't gotten around to changing the signs yet.

“And players understanding this lack of respect has driven the development of NIL and most other changes happening with players choosing to protect themselves.”

What lack of respect? Supply and demand has its own “respect” built in. We’ve given into this idea that if college football makes all this money that they should give it to their “employees” more so than any other business out there. There are plenty of businesses out there that make a lot of money that pay their employees market value based on the “supply and demand” of said employee. But in this case, we’ve bowed to the player that really has no leverage. If they don’t wanna play within the rules of college amateur status, there are plenty that will. People will still watch if some don’t like that deal & opt for not playing college football (which they won’t in most cases).

This has become a union-like fight between the workers and the owners where the workers negotiated a sweet deal w/o much power. I think the nfl needs to setup a minor league system. It’s the only way to preserve the sport. They’ve been using college as their minor league system for years. It’s time they do it on their own & leave the colleges alone. This is minor league professionalism w/o any guardrails right now. Total shitshow that has ruined the sport. Zero foresight from the powers that be. Take care of the players, but treat them like any other employee if that’s where the sport is headed.

Minchey had all season to overtake Angeli and couldn't do it, and yet here you are calling for Minchey over Angeli like you know something the coaching staff doesn't. If Carr is healthy, he and Angeli will be vying for the starting role. there's a good chance Minchey will be the odd man out and transfer out come spring unless he makes significant strides.

Be prepared to be disappointed at the qb position next season.

At Miami. Game 1. Going with a redshirt freshman QB with zero CFB game experience will make many fans a tad nervous.

Yeah, man. That's what I do. I defend evil because other evil did it first. I know this isn't easy for you guys. With the NCAA collapsing all around you. And having to stare in the face of what it was all this time. But there will be no going back to the way it used to be.

I hope ND is not seriously considering picking up Ewers. Freeman recently said there is no plan to go to the portal this year for a QB; I hope that hasn't changed. Ewers is overrated in my eyes. Not big or particularly mobile. Doesn't have a particularly strong arm. Slow to process the field, though he usually makes good decisions. UT fans are mostly clamoring for Arch Manning, though some of that may be the shiny new toy syndrome. It is a near certainty that Manning will start next year, so Ewers will either be playing somewhere else or holding a clipboard in the NFL. There is no way Ewers will go in the first round of the NFL draft, IMO. He can probably make more NIL money than he will get in the NFL next year.

I am a little concerned about CJ Carr's elbow injury. I read he fractured his right elbow during a practice in September and hasn't done much throwing since then. I suppose a fracture is better than a UCL injury, but I don't know enough about elbow fractures to know whether the injury will be a long-term concern. While I like Steve Angeli, he doesn't move the needle for me. Either Carr or Minchey will have to be the man next year.

I was just following the lead from the post I was answering to. I had the class in 1963. A long time ago.

That was my High School experience too, but the 4 major sport (football, baseball, wrestling, and basketball) recieved speal tutoring during the season so not to disturb trying for the season.
It was a very disciplined structure.
Wrestling which I excelled at is a very demanding sport with tournaments and multiple dual meets continuously happening, and tutors would be there every step to keep us up with the semester.
There were times I seen my tutors more than I seen my family

It's true though. That's the 'master morality'. That was like, his big gift to social criticism and proto-psychology. He's not really a philosopher per se. And you see it on full display with CFB fans. They don't care about reality, reality's what they want it to be. Or morality is whatever they want it to be, if you prefer. Whatever suits them. Because this situation is not subtle, and almost not even fit for reasonable discussion or disagreement. That's how blatant and utterly undeniable the NCAA's rank exploitation has been, with a paper trail of incriminating evidence, and legally, philosophically, morally, they're just completely dead in the water. There's no gray area. No ethical wiggle room. But it doesn't matter to these guys, and they just defend it anyway. And that's the master morality. It's morally right because I want to be right.
