CP stated about a year ago they wanted to stay in FCS and the BSC. That can change but this shows they intend to try to become relevant in FCS BSC football. That investment is for facility improvements about the middle of the MWC. Suck state and Davis have goals of FBS mediocrity, and grisLLLy's may or may not stay relevant next year (21 days will tell us more).

Stop thinking about the gris. Stop thinking about the gris. Stop thinking about the gris.

Every podcast or newspaper article; How do the gris compare with the Cats in recruiting? What does Bobbies retirement do to the rivalry? How would the gris have done against the Red Birds in the Natty?

By the way; How many news articles on Bobbies retirement mention his 7-8 record against the Cats during his tenure?

I know. It's dumb.

Though I do appreciate Sammy's perspective on a change being necessary. I just wish other media guys would acknowledge that instead of being so intent on singing Bobby's praises.

It's a volume game.

If you go by percentages, the higher rankings win.

EDIT:

There's something like 32 5 star recruits per year. 300-380 4 star recruits. ~2000 3 star recruits. 247 claims there are roughly 15,000 overall football recruits each year. Which means 412 combined 4 & 5 star recruits making up 2.75% of football recruits in a year, so if they're 23% of the Super Bowl participants, they're kicking far above their average.

Has anyone heard of the Bobcat weekly podcast? Just was listening to clips on Instagram. I've subscribed.

It seems like its a couple high school kids that run it?

Thanks, I was just showing Vim the star rankings in the Super Bowl. Thanks for going through all that work to make a counter point to an argument that nobody was making though. :)

I am recreating our 2025 season using @ADOKmt’s CFB26 teambuilder on my youtube channel. The 2 deep roster is super accurate. Enjoy.

Looks like Sac has managed to get 8 games scheduled and a couple quality opponents.

I hadn’t heard that South Dakota lost their head coach to Rutgers. They officially hired a new coach.
