The 12-team college football playoff has thrown the off-season schedule into a loop.
It was already fucked up.
It fucked over Michigan last year.
But this year it seems more fucked up than ever.
I didn’t even know until this morning that today is National Signing Day.
I’m not even sure how much that matters anymore.
Throw in the transfer portal on top of that, and the whole thing is a mess.
Running through the list, there’s tons of talent available already.
Multiple quarterbacks who could walk in and be the starter for more than half the teams in college football.
I was told he was great.
Kinda rough for a QB who has his own logo if you ask me.
But he was 5-star recruit out of high school.
Has 2-years of eligibility left.
13 games of starting QB experience against top competition.
I never trust how much accounts like that are actually plugged into the situation.
For all we know, they could be pulling schools out of a hat.
That hasn’t been the best take so far.
Miller Moss didn’t even finish the season with USC.
He entered the portal after a Week 10 loss to Washington.
He’s a pocket passer with a pro arm.
Any team interested in Weigman should be interested in Miller Moss.
I’ve seen Michigan and Auburn thrown out for him as well.
If he’s telling the truth, then it’s possible for you to’t blame the guy.
At the time he left, UNLV was rolling.
They were 3-0 with wins over Houston and Kansas.
But for what it’s worth, when he left, UNLV didn’t miss a beat.
Many would say they got better.
Sluka is very much not a good passer.
He’s a big 6'3" running QB.
I’m not sure how many teams are actually interested in that.
I’m afraid he could be in for a serious humbling.
At least Sluka may have had a good reason.
Castellanos jumped ship the second he faced a lick of adversity.
But then he suffered an injury and was never quite the same when he came back.
They dropped 3 in a row.
Castellanos' was benched during a game against Syracuse, which BC inevitably won.
Then Castellanos called it quits.
Wasn’t interested in being a backup.
Wasn’t interested in fighting to win his spot back.
He definitely showed flashes of greatness.
He’s a dual threat guy.
And for a stretch there, Boston College was by all accounts overachieving with him at QB.
Personally, I can’t stand Liberty.
I hate that they have a good football team.
Their school is weird as shit.
They play a schedule that makes Indiana look like they’re in the NFC North.
But they’re had some damn good teams.
However, this year was a shit show.
It seemed like he just didn’t quite have the weapons he needed this season.
But 2023 was a different story.
They still didn’t play a soul.
Yes, when they finally got a chance to play Oregon in the Fiesta Bowl, they lost 45-13.
Liberty turned out to be a massive fraud all along.
But Kaidon Salter was legit.
Colandrea is a delight to watch play football.
A true gunslinger, if you will.
There’s no throw he doesn’t think he can make.
He has the confidence of 1,000 Jameis Winston’s.
And he had Virginia off to a hot start.
But once the level of competition stepped up they fell flat on their face.
Whoever ends up taking a chance on Cordrea is in for a wild ride.
Turns out he’sBrock Purdy’s brother.He was a 4-star recruit out of high school.
Sat the bench for 2 years at Florida State.
Sat the bench for 2 years at Nebraska.
Sat the bench this year for Nevada.
There will probably be a new big one by the time this is posted.
The transfer portal is just chaos.
And you cantrack the entire thing in real timeif you so choose.
There are still a ton of problems with it, but I think it’s great for college football.
At minimum it’s fun.
And that’s what college football is all about.
