Oklahoma Sooners quarterback Caleb Williams will undoubtedly have a lot of options now that he's in the transfer portal, including several teams in contention for a spot in the College Football Playoff.

The gamblers won’t pay crap for any player to throw an Eastern Michigan game. A potential Oklahoma national semi final game, now that’s a different matter.

Semi pro here we go - why not pay them all and be fair instead of the fake educational institutions raking it all in?! 🤪

Like Democrats, it’s really scary when they don’t even try to hide the corruption.

The transfer portal and legally paying college athletes is changing the face of college sports dramatically and rapidly. I don't like what I'm seeing. Transgenderism is no good either.

Pro sports have already been ruined. College sports are going down the same path, sadly.

Miami, UGA, UCLA and maybe USC will start adding zeroes to that number.

Yes, there’s plenty already to criticize about college sports. It’s about to go exponential...

In class?

I transferred in as a Junior, so it was only upper level ChemE and EE classes for me.

When the Hurons went to the PC Falcons a lot of us forgot about them.
