Looks like right now Tuck is officially only suspended. 

If you jerk off while talking to the rape/sexual assault activist that you invited to talk to your team, you should be fired instantly.  There is not a single situation where you should keep your job after that, not one.

They’re just waiting for the Title IX hearing to make it official. Getting all their ducks in a row, so he can’t worm his way into keeping any of that money.  He’s done, for all intents and purposes.

Although it does beg the question why he’s been allowed to coach at all this season prior to this story coming out.

I do not understand how you get into this situation.  Of all things you can do to all the people you can do it to, how do you do this to her?  You cannot sexually harass the woman you brought in to discuss sexual harassment.  How does it even cross your mind?

Seriously. Call a fucking sex line if you need to talk to a woman and masturbate that badly. He's certainly got the fucking money.

The only possible way he didn't get his full ninety fucking five million dollars is if he did something incredibly stupid, and by God he found something incredibly stupid to do.

Ultimately it’s about power and getting off on denigrating women. A phone sex line or he’ll, creating an account on Fetlife and finding a dom or sub or whatever in the area isn’t going to cut it. 

He, like a lot of others, is just a completely broken person. There’s no rehabilitation for that. Piece of shit.

If he was winning B1G titles and competing for the Natty, maybe they cover it up.

Is it worth pointing out how that this shit seems to keep happening to folks at Michigan State? I'm not saying to give them the death penalty or anything and honestly, Penn State is like the Sandy Hook of scandals where the absolute worst thing happened and ultimately it didn't even matter so if Penn State didn't get shut down AND got their wins back then ain't nothing happening to any other big school. It's just...man...when it keeps happening at the same fucking school it's hard to call it a coincidence. Like one of those situations where the rot starts at the top type of things, but I honestly don't know enough about State to know if that's the case or not.

A Judge has blocked the Pac-12 from meeting as a board on Friday

Basically Oregon and Washington St filed a complaint that basically says they should be the only two voting members of the PAC-12 (based on passed precedent of the conference)

Quote

Oregon State and Washington State have argued that they should be the only voting members remaining in the conference, citing precedent that previous members who've notified the Pac-12 of their withdrawal from the league have lost voting rights.

In the past 18 months, 10 members have departed the Pac-12. That has left only Oregon State and Washington State to sift through the remaining assets and liabilities as they attempt to determine whether it's worth pushing forward with the league. There's value in the league's name, television network, remaining assets and NCAA men's basketball tournament units that could be used as a lure to help facilitate a merger with the Mountain West.

Oregon State and Washington State filed supporting exhibits that included a letter from the Pac-12's general counsel to Colorado in July that informed it explicitly that, effective immediately, "CU no longer has the right to vote on any matter before the Board." In the hearing Monday, attorney Eric MacMichael argued on behalf of Oregon State and Washington State that all the schools want is "to see if they can save this conference and allow it to move forward."

The Pac-12's attorney present at the hearing, Mark Lambert, argued for the meeting to be held in order to conduct league business. He said the league has nearly 200 employees and is working to "keep its lights" on and keep "critical employees in place." He added that commissioner George Kliavkoff, who was not present at the hearing, is in a terrible position and is just trying to keep league business moving smoothly.

Just following up on the SMU to ACC story.

Let's just convert the major college teams into Under 22 pro leagues. Make it official that the boosters own the team.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/smu-pays-way-into-acc-with-200m-from-boosters/ar-AA1gonPQ?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=dcc611076e184b34bff71cca9a0304c1&ei=37

(this refers to the top booster who put together the package to make up the $200 million that SMU agreed to forego in media money)

When Miller met with the top boosters to seal the move to the ACC, the combined net worth of the room was believed to be about $15 billion.

“It’s a couple hundred million dollars,” Miller said. “I’m not losing sleep over it.”

Let's once and for all time get rid of the "It's all amateurs, really!" bullshit.

excited to find out how much time I can spend watching the two local games this Saturday (K-State at Mizzou on SEC Network and Kansas at Nevada on CBS Sports Network)

Pitt vs West Virginia has two schools that hate each other. TCU vs Houston should have a lot of points. But yeah, stuff like Northern Illinois/Nebraska on FS1 and Western Kentucky/Ohio State on FOX is probably gonna be rough

I feel like every time we have one of these weeks with no big games, we get a lot of wild upsets or near upsets. Ranked teams going on the road vs. home underdogs are often a good bet for upset potential. So maybe keep an eye on Penn State at Illinois, Kansas State at Mizzou, Tennessee at Florida, Washington at Michigan State (some added intrigue there re: MSU’s situation), Oklahoma at Tulsa, and Bama at USF.

Pitt/WVU isn’t a super relevant game nationally, but it was great having the Backyard Brawl back last year, and I bet it’ll be fun again.

One other game I might suggest keeping an eye on early, just to see if it turns into anything: Western Kentucky at Ohio State. Yeah, CUSA vs. B1G is a huge discrepancy, even before you factor in the Ohio of it all. But maybe you catch Ohio looking ahead to Notre Dame. WKU has had one of the most consistently prolific offenses in CFB for years, and OSU has had some struggles on offense this year. If WKU can put some points up early and get Ohio in a chase state, it could be more interesting that people expect.

Syracuse/Purdue being a primetime game on a network is kinda hilarious too

 

In fairness it's a rematch of one of the most batshit crazy games in living memory from last season.

Indiana and Louisville, which feels like a pair of teams that should play each other at least fairly regularly just based on proximity, have a neutral site game at Lucas Oil in Indianapolis this weekend.

It was supposed to be the first in a three game series with them doing a home and home the next two years, but Indiana is instead buying out the next two to schedule likely cupcake fcs opponents. It's legitimately disappointing. 

We have all this conference expansion to get more interesting games in TV packages but here's Indiana backing out of interesting games.

also, Notre Dame is playing Central Michigan on Peacock. Feels like Notre Dame playing teams like Tennessee State and Central Michigan is really slumming it. Although i'm sure the small schools appreciate the money. Tennessee State is probably more competitive than having Notre Dame murder an in-state Pioneer League team like Valpo or Butler

next year Notre Dame continues their donations to MAC schools with games against Northern Illinois and Miami-Ohio. Going to the Wayback Machine for the FBSschedules page, and it looks like Notre Dame was filling schedule spots last minute (or last minute compared to the current NCAA norm)
