The main thing I don’t like in the modern game is taking away blocking below the waist. It’s the only way a smaller man has a chance to block a bigger man- leverage. It’s become sumo wrestling along the lines, with lots of holding (who knows what that is anymore?). I don’t like the slide, either. It’s getting sort of like what Jack Lambert once said about putting dresses on quarterbacks.Or the NCAA could reinvent as a “Club”.
Country Clubs have rules. Either abide or you don’t get in.
IF you want to play sports for the club, you play by their rules or, once again……. go to truck driving school.
Absurd again
Of course this is all talk, but what else can WE do?
I’ve mentioned NASCAR a couple times. They were as “hot” as hot could be a few years ago. But, they changed the rules, and the way they operated. They tried to get “civilized” and eliminate “rubbing” (racing) and fighting etc. (I equate this to “targeting”, roughing the passer, the “slide” in the wussification of FB. Fans don’t like it. Add the portal and NIL and many fans like it less)
They tried to change things back when fans disappeared, but they are nothing like what they were.
Times, attitudes, and interests change.
We needed an experienced DB, but could use another.
I totally expect Pryor to return next year at UL.
This makes sense -the bowl was an opportunity for him to show some film for teams. I have no problem with this at all.
