Not Responsible For Other People's Education!

 FAIR WARNING: The New Pac 12's Future will be Short, but not too Sweet! I feel that as a Fan, what gets me Ginned Up is having to be Responsible for Other People's Education like "Who's Child is This"?

I would think very much that Creighton, Missouri State and Wichita State should tie their Wagons to the Original Name Kiel Center instead of Other Places. And, it doesn't help that Tangents would win the day.

I doubt anything good would have came with USC and UCLA coming to the Flyover States when more often than not, they'd be National Brands being no further than Mountain Time.

And, Sacramento State would have saved themselves and Texas State the Trouble had they been Focused on the Other Papers. I would have rooted for Gonzaga to Return to College Football before North Dakota State would have Aggie Coded their Territory Mindless.

If You Know Your Crazy Uncle Can't Work at a Family Brand, He Shouldn't Be Doing High Level Discussions

 Nothing gets under my skin like Conference Realignment and NIL. And, as a Public Service Announcement, if your Crazy Uncle Can't Work at a Family Brand, he Shouldn't Be Doing High Level Discussions.

Instead, that would make the Public Howl at the NCAA, which would have Nightmares and then Some of the 1970's and 1980's. As a Fan, I would be a Stickler about wanting NIL to be Repurposed for Building Programs from Nowhere or Elevating Club Sports to Varsity.

Usually, if Someone Transfers Serially or Has No Respect for Women's Sports, or Even the Actual Women's Community, they are not worth your time or your money. High Level Discussions Exist for a Reason, and that Reason is Not Everyone Gets Involved in them.

Alarmingly, we'd have too many "Too Cool for School" Characters and not enough Serious Book Craftsmen and Craftswomen to count. Student Loans would Drain the Moneymaking Abilities of these Places and People Want to Enjoy their Teams and Windsprint through the Future like the Drake Relays.

How Close Are We to Another NCAA Death Penalty?

 How close are we to another NCAA Death Penalty? Having to consider Student Athletes either Too Busy to be Collecting Money or Too Busy to be Troubled because they have their Own Troubles, that is a Scary Thought.

You can't cash in if you keep Transferring Every Year and generally, More College is not an Answer. I wouldn't want to see a Long Term Non-Graduate either can't finish or have an interest in doing the Socials and the Partying instead of being a Functional Alumni.

Speaking of Functional, some of these places are Far from Functional. That is a Problem and Athletic Directors would not like having someone asking too many Questions, or the Wrong Questions that would make them Upset.

I would not want Baylor Running Out the Clock Again, as we've had North Carolina cost themselves a Real All Time Great National Championship, Ohio State cost the Sport an All Time Great National Championship Game and Ole Miss just be Jerks and they later got found out.

The only good reason More College was an answer in this time is not to have to make Hard Decisions regarding College and Your Future because of COVID. Nothing would have been achieved if you Dress Up As Mom or Drink Beer as a Punishment.

The truth is Steroids add nothing and they take everything from People who'd really want to Work, and Winning at All Costs only eggs on Sexual Predators who'd harm Women.

I Don't Need a Mr. and Mrs. Smith Bowl!

 I feel that the worst thing to do to High School Sports is to take Baby Steps and Baby Steps and invent a Mr. and Mrs. Smith Bowl. I feel that would be California, but, nationally, what ruffles my feathers and here in Iowa, we would not need a Conference 5A.

It bothers me a lot when the News is Fake, but the Glory and the Work Beyond the Glory is Not.

Basketball is the lead driver in this nonsense and the Image is going to accept or deter people and their hard earned money.

That is not a Joke!

I can't stand to Clintonize HBCU's as that is a Problem. The whole ordeal is "Out of Sight, Out of Mind" and that is not good.

Make Your Move Now or Lose Money Attitude is Permeating

 I feel mad that lower the Accumulative GPA for College Entry is Enabling the Bank Robber Outsmarting the Cops, as College and College Sports is not a Need Based Blood Sport. Every year of the High School Class of 2022 the Economy has been nothing short of Bad and not in a good way.

It's bad as in losing continuity and that continuity is bad and so bad you'd have no idea or awareness of it. I would feel in processing, that we'd give too many freebies to the Wrong People and that is not a New Complaint, but, I feel it would be like giving stuff to the Wrong Woman and your Credit Rating takes a Slug.

I don't like what I am seeing and it is not effective. I feel this is not Martin or Malcolm, but, having to kowtow to Poor Judgment and that hurts. I am getting sick and tired of having to see the Make Your Move Now or Lose Money Attitude is Permeating as that would catch up to people and people do not like it.

Needy Things

 I feel that for as much as I would make fun of Stephen King's better works, which still has a Fan Base in my Boyhood Lisbon, this is a serious matter. Having needy things comes out of Absentee Dads, and I wouldn't want to throw my Money in the Pot for a Johnny Manziel or Brian Bosworth.

The neediness is dangerous and out of hand, and it is not getting any better. I'd rather have a Busch Grand National V6 before I'd have a Tesla, and trust me, I'd like to know if the BGN Engine is also the Indy Car Engine.

This is not the Student Section, and I feel that most of our heroes are not creeps. If your heroes are mercilessly needy, it reflects poorly on the School. Doing things appropriately is a lot better and takes longer than falling for the Cartoon Moves, and no one wants to take Junk either.

The needy things spill out into Professionalism and Professional Sports, and I am not a Play Teacher. I am not a General Manager and if I was, I'd have trouble adjusting out of Unemployment. I can't stomach having a lack of leadership, either.

Name, Image and Likeness Won't Work If You Just Go Home and Never Return to School!

 I feel the biggest things that have happened is Reopening Recruiting and Name, Image, and Likeness. What Name, Image, and Likeness won't do if you Take the Money, Just Go Home, and Never Return to School. That would be my Hard Earned Money that you'd be taking Racks on Racks on Racks of and I'd think the HBCU's are seeing Dollar Signs if they are Texas and Texas A and M and had Texas and Texas A and M did that, there would be problems.

It wouldn't be the demerit of an Alabama Sponsor going to Auburn and thinking of it this way, instead of just Whittier, Alaska, you'd have to be personable. It would be using an Injury, Pregnancy, or Academic Issues to get out of School like it was the Military.

It would be a lazier Power Hack and a lazier way to say Graduate Transfer without actually being a Graduate Student.It would be akin to Netgate at Florida where you'd keep getting hurt to win more years, and when your peers are Faculty, you are the relic.

The words most Young Adults or Adults don't like to hear is "I Can't Play." and instead of just living in Whittier, you have to Work in Whittier and have to hear everyone's junk at Home and Work and there would be no respite.

It would be the Family Guy Route in "What if He/She Was a Minority or Even Black" and it would make for a Scarier Villain, depriving Kansas State and Northern Illinois tangible achievements instead of giving Texas A and M or Florida State more hype than they deserve.

You don't do Gimmicks or Perks when you don't know who's in charge, and Gimmicks and Perks only work if your Under 13 or if you have Nothing, which is what these State Senators got all wrong like That 70's Show.

How is it Everyone in the Only Colors Territory Has their Own Problems?

 It is not the West Coast having to need a new Commissioner in the Pac 12 and that is only because of incompetence, but, everyone in Traditional Big Ten Territory has their own problems and they are showing. Minnesota is resorting to Gimmicks and having problems reaching the Inner City, Wisconsin would be lost without Alvarez, Iowa would be lost without Strength and having actual Behavioral and Legal Problems Darken the State and the School, Illinois hired the WRONG Illinois High School Football Alumni, which would have saved them from the President, and the War Games being War Games for real.

I feel like most Summers, it is Wash, Rinse, and Repeat. Even though Blowing the Lid off of Problems with the NCAA would be convenient, but, it would wear out like Politics and Young and Hip. Iowa would be the one who'd be stuck with Drug Problems again like the Late 1960's/Early 1970's and it would be harder to stop.

Sparty is not close to the Playoffs Again, and there has not been a Crown Jewel that would make our Summers more livable. We would need Notre Dame and Marquette to Omnibus Conference Realignment and reapportionment is due.

These problems are showing on the Campsite and the Hotel Suite. There is not a United Front in the Northeast in the Major College Sports Scene and that has been noticed and a lot of these places not being given the time of day unless they are incompetent or worse is a problem.

When you get a Suspicious Amount of Traffic or even a Suspicious Amount of Email Traffic from One Area that wouldn't Otherwise Get to another Area, that is a problem.

How Many Programs Would Be Leaving Us Hanging With NCAA Sanctions?

It is driving me crazy that how many programs would be leaving us hanging with NCAA Sanctions? We would not have had School since last Spring, and it has driven me up the wall that programs are keeping up with not firing or letting an Outlaw lead another set of Outlaws.

I feel like this is a pet peeve of mine in Analog NCAA and I feel equally, just as pet peeve is why they don't keep these Video Game Programs High, Low, and Everyday. The rigidness of NCAA Football 14 does not let you go through Infrastructure.

I would feel like there would be nowhere to run and I would be pulsed by having Texas A and M play Cops and Robbers with the NCAA. I feel like even though I am mocking up a season, that doesn't mean that I would totally be the Good Times guy.

Stability in the program would be keeping the same coach/coaching staff for 4 Years and I feel like I would have to pivot the rule of 1635 or whatever number in having to see which programs are Championing or Authorizing Legit Academics.

Tampa 2 On Stability

What badgers me is a lot of things, and a lot of things that wouldn't happen if we was stable in College Sports. Having a "It's A Wonderful Life" Wonderland in Happy Valley instead of being Angry Valley and demeaning into a Zombie decorum that would rank the neighborhood, the NCAA having an ethical obligation to dealing with kids that weren't theirs as a problem as much as their own, the Old Capital and Chapel Hill not Section 8 Housin' Destabilizing like it the only thing alive, and many others.

Going off should ONLY be saved for people that ACTUALLY Just Lose It. And, I don't think nothing gets solved if we got thrown Pixie Dust in 3 Weeks. And, tell me, who really has the tower in control? Unless I'm so convinced your home is not stable, I am not the best at calling people up early.

And, we do charicatures better than nothing. Nowhere, and I mean, nowhere, we have enough art that people actually want to buy. And, excessive targeting and equalizer intents are not "fine". Fine is not one program getting great again, which helps the cash flow, but, other things make the sport great, including the pros.

Would everyone with each university crash a future "Superdome Summit" like everyone had No College Literally, and that collapsed into K-12? True Expansion should be the goal.

Do Not Win Transfers

I feel as if the transfer speculation market has reared an ugly and nasty head, especially with Jalen Hurts not penning whether or not he'll exit Tuscaloosa. And, generally, no one wins a star transfer. And, King Saban has gone through his best assistants already like Steve Harvey Suit, and the suit is already better at home.

And, I say Do Not Win Jalen Hurts if he transfers. And, tell me why Connecticut doesn't have their rocks in order? Unless it is Louisville, you shouldn't win transfers like lunch.

And, I feel what if Iowa City was as messed up as Gainesville? There are still Gators that need to get out a Rose Bowl or a half decent stadium quest, or finish undefeated. And, what is weirder, is a lot of these guys need to get demoted to AAU like it really was the underground.

I can't win Frampton. But, I feel there has to be spirit that success will happen here, and Mr. Fulmer knows he'd have a 3 to 5 Year Tour of a Head Coach. And,Texas doesn't do transfers and that is diplomatic.

And, I feel zero-sum victories needs to be a rebellion we'd need to do and leave alone.
