JJ ‘s quote on Instagram

...I don't want to say a crazy number, but l'd say a good number, 80% of teams in college football steal signs. It's just a thing about football.


You know, it's been around for years. We actually had to adapt because in 2020 and 2019 when Ohio State was stealing our signs, which is legal, we had to get up to the level that they were at, and we had to make it an even playing field."

Carter Smith named Gatorade POY for the state of Florida

Imagine how good he’s gonna be when he focuses on football full-time.

On computer paying bills. This came up.

They ( media hacks) aren’t going to let the “ cheating scandal” go. It’s become tiring hearing about what everyone does and Michigan the only team getting crushed. Yea maybe Conner crossed the line but in some form every team has “ that “ guy. On another note a YouTube video a guy says it’s not Michigan it’s Harbaugh , they want him gone!

Catapult last week, sign stealing this week

The media really likes controlling the narrative.

First they ask JH about vacating wins?

Response: UM's Jim Harbaugh was just asked what his reaction would be if any of this season's wins are vacated: "I guess you want to live more in Rumorville ... we just really don't have any room to be doing that at this point."

Then JJ about sign stealing?

Response:

"About 80 percent of teams in college football steal signs. We actually had to adapt because in 2019, 2020, Ohio State was stealing our signs — which is legal. We had to get up to the level they were at and make it an even playing field."

Really?!

Just finished lunch with my friends who are retired ACC coaches,

and we were joined by another friend who is a retired NFL referee and 20 yr ACC referee.

What they are hearing has surprised me, they said:
1. The SEC wants the state of North Carolina very badly.
2. FSU has made in clear to the SEC they will only accept a B1G invite. Their understanding it is FSU's to turn down as the feeling in the B1G is mutual.
3. The kicker is it seems the SEC schools in the East are blocking Clemson from the SEC. They believe the Big 12 will get Clemson.
4. The SEC doesn't want Miami either. BUT these 3 believe the B1G will take Miami under certain stipulations, otherwise, they can be dropped from the league.
5. The B1G will gladly give up Virginia & NC for South Carolina (Clemson) and Florida (FSU & Miami)

Why #5 I asked?
They said the media numbers will go through the roof in the Southeast. Clemson actually brings in the Charlotte market. Furthermore, the Maryland connection in the B1G brings in Northern Virginia. The number of B1G alumni in Virginia is huge.

I asked if they perceive divisions would be needed. They all agreed, not yet. Once the ACC implodes with the VA, NC, Clemson and Fla schools leave the B1G will most likely in their opinion go to 2 pods within two divisions.

They believe the B1G will get Miami, FSU, Clemson bringing the league to 21 schools. Then 3 more schools may join with ND having a hard time turning down almost 2 times the money as now.

The B1G will clearly become the strongest CFB conference as a coast to coast league.

Having Miami, FSU, Clemson, PSU, OSU, Michigan, ND, Nebraska, Wisconsin, USC, Oregon, UCLA and Washington as standard bearers. There could be 2 divisions with two pods in each A 10 conference game set aside to play for the B1G semi final with the CCG as the 13th game. Giving every B1G team to effect who gets invited to the 12 team play off.

They all agreed that the money the B1G would make would be astronomical under this concept.

Every 3 - 4 years every B1G team would play in every B1G stadium

All I could say is WOW.

We closed the conversation with, WE SHALL SEE...
