30 years ago they were in their own Duckade of losing to the University of Idaho. Their trajectory to national relevance makes Oregon’s seem tame.
They certainly didn’t deserve a bye or their seed in the 12 team playoff. The group of 5 slot should never be anything but 12th. Although they had Oregon on the ropes on the road, had they won that game they could make an argument to be #1 and they would have deserved a bye.
I was rooting against their tailback to pass Barry Sanders records based on the strength of schedule plus a MW championship game and their playoff game. College football should now count his bowl game.
That must be why USC was taken off television after Pete Carroll left. No one has gotten a TV ban in 40 years and that was little old SMU.
Use your head. No one in the P4 is getting the recruiting/tv death penalty in the year of our lord 2025. There’s too much money on the other side for that to happen.
Post season ban? Sure
Scholarship limits? Sure
TV ban and no recruiting? lol ok buddy. Continue on with your fan fiction. Haie and Bill need someone to play with so you’re on the right track if that’s what you’re after.
Shut down by whom? The NCAA barely exists anymore. The sad part about that is that we're going to lose generations of posts about rumors that hated rivals are going to get cooked for this or that. Not going to happen. There is money flowing in and out of these places and there's not one single credible source for how much. Even the NCAA list I've posted a couple of times is an estimate. If the NCAA had any regulatory teeth anymore, there would be full reporting on NIL spend, limitations on transfer portal, etc. etc. There's nothing. Nobody is afraid of the NCAA anymore. The networks/cable/streaming platforms run college football. Even the conferences answer to them. And those people are not in the business of doing things that keep teams off of TV.

Another coach who wants to cap players salaries.
I’ll be more impressed when one of them talks about capping the coaches.
Fuck yes we were tampering.
Oh no someone trying to win. Can't have that
I think the Death Penalty for 10 years would be appropriate.
Network TV Execs might have a problem with that….
Hate to break it to you but Oregon isn't in the top 10 of most watched.
cry me a river for Boise State

Appears someone else is "imagining" wins.

Facts > talking out of one's ass
and nothing will happen to them, as usual
don't want to upset Nike!
You don’t understand how TV contracts work, do you?
You don't understand that there are usually carve-outs for bad actors, do you?

I was talking in jest about a death penalty. But if a team is shut down for being a bad actor, they won't be on TV because there is nothing to show.
