JD Vance fumbles Ohio State title trophy at White House event
Ryan Day and the Ohio State Buckeye’s football team were honored at the White House for their 2024 national championship victory.
The absurdity would be hilarious if it weren’t so dangerously reckless.
College football is dying, everyone. And the sport’s leaders don’t really care.
Somewhere in Las Calinas, Texas, in a posh $600 a night five-star hotel, the muckety-mucks of the College Football Playoff are dining on five-star meals and bickering about playoff formats and automatic qualifiers and generating revenue — and getting nothing done.
That’s four of these highfalutin’ meetings in the last four months, thank you. With nary a thing to show.
Meanwhile, the college football world is crumbing around them.
A quarterback just held a football team hostage because none of those muckety-mucks had the foresight to make sure NIL deals had buyout clauses. Or had – and I know this is a foreign idea – a plan.
One plan. Any plan.
One that doesn’t include the Tennessee quarterback failing to get a restructured NIL deal days before the spring transfer portal opened, and leaving to sign with UCLA. That doesn’t include the UCLA quarterback, who three months earlier transferred to Westwood from Appalachian State, leaving UCLA before playing a snap and signing with – wait for it – Tennessee.
All in a matter of a week.
Back in Las Calinas, the 10 conference commissioners and the Notre Dame athletic director – at the behest of their university presidents (don’t ever forget that part) – will continue to play the charade of we’re for all of college football. For a better and equitable game.
When they all know damn well the SEC and Big Ten own the show. It’s their script, their three-card monte.
