e: so we're clear, if Joe Mixon doesn't hit women again and lives a good life then I hope he uses his talent to get as much money as he can before the NFL discards him like they do all RBs at the tender age of 27 but I'm totally OK with the NFL tightening up rules on Combine invites and young adults learning that their actions can affect their future and their earning potential.

Personally I think it's a stupid, empty gesture to bar these guys from the combine when they're definitely going to get drafted.

SC quarterback/outfielder Brandon McIlwain is transferring. Not surprising at all, given how Jake Bentley outclassed him and is the clear future at the position, but it's still a shame. He's a USC legacy and I was really hoping he could at least hack it on the baseball team, which was probably his best bet to begin with. But he couldn't even crack the lineup there, so here we are, unfortunately.

Understand that view point but NFL is damned if they do, damned if they don't. They either do enough to discourage and punish stuff like this or they don't depending on what side you're on and this is another case of that in practice.

If Mixon is going to be successful I hope he is really successful and TBIs himself into a drooling mess.

Nah, not yet; he just announced it tonight. I was kind of expecting him to quit the football team after his mom had a social media meltdown about Jake Bentley starting, but it's a bummer he's leaving Columbia altogether. Not sure if he'll keep trying to play football or if he'll just focus on baseball from now on.

MAC football has been low key awful for the last couple years. Pretty much the moment people noticed that the games were fun and started doing the MACTION thing it went to poo poo. CUSA games on CBS Sports Network are where it's at for fun shootouts now, provided you ignore, like, a third of the league.

This is true. The last really fun MAC game I saw was back when NIU was practically unstoppable.

Compare that to like, every Western Kentucky game the last two years.

It's because of their kinda-sorta ACC schedule. Surprising to have 3/4 of tobacco road all in the same year though.

edit: wait they only play in NC once. NCState and Wake are both in South Bend. Nevermind my dumb post.

He's going to get drafted in the 3rd round because he decked someone not because teams didn't get facetime at the stupid Combine. Teams that want to take a chance on him will still visit and someone will select him and (likely) get a steal.

Imo it is really stupid to ban a player from the combine but not the league. Oh, take this arbitrary punishment but then we will gladly let you grind your brain into mush to make us some money, we don't think your crime was THAT reprehensible after all.

Wrong, jorts are pre-made garbage for dads and dorks while cutoffs express the nuanced preferences of the owner. How far above the knee do we want to go? How daring do we want to be?

Wrong. Denim cutoffs are the shorts of choice in rural Georgia, or in FSU sorority houses. Jorts are the crisply-hemmed, denim abominations worn by, as Mike_V pointed out, "dads and dorks."
