maybe.
pff ranked him the fourth worst starting qb in the league. below justin fields, daniel jones, etc.
goff is a nice stop gap guy whose contract will be easy to get out of in a year. hopefully they can upgrade by then.
the sports program at um adds a ton of cachet to the school. i know um presidents like to talk all high and mighty about divorcing it from their academic mission, but its not going anywhere, even if it does become officially professionalized.
im not sure getting rid of college football will play well in the south. they have to find a way to keep those institutions involved or youre going to end up with a usfl/xfl type situation where people appreciate the novelty, but no one really cares.
they need to become employees of the university, unionize, and sign a cba with the ncaa. without uniform rules that can be upheld in courts, there will continue to be the wild west out there.
not sure it will generate interest without the college attachment. minor league baseball isnt going around generating tons of money for mlb.
draft and follow might be a better alternative. like they do in hockey.

nick saban complaining that texas a & m bought their recruiting class.
i mean, he's right, they did. but nick saban? from alabama? what's next, ryan day complaining that texas a & m players dont have to go to class?
big ten needs to stop dicking around and go to a 16 or 20 team conference. match the sec and take it up a notch. but it wont, because its a slow bureaucracy run by short sighted bureaucrats who want to get paid and not risk anything.
javy is the same player he's always been. the worry now is that he'll get angry and bored and his fielding will start to fall off as his hitting has done.
he should get hot at some point and start blasting mistakes into orbit, but he's easy to pitch to because he swings at everything. always has, likely always will.
colorado dominated that game and barely won. not a good sign for st louis. that was probably their best chance to steal one. unless binnington stands on his head, theyre liable to get run out of the rink.
yeah, he might've even gotten to the nfc championship game!
ok. go ahead and have your last word on your ridiculous debate that shanahan isnt a good coach because the 49ers front office didnt trade for matt stafford.
kyle shanahan? the guy who won two road playoff games and got within a possession of beating the rams in LA in the championship game? all with a shitty qb?
that guy is going nowhere. he's a great coach.
