      This article is so well written. It’s a lengthy article, but wow.

        The supposed #1 JUCO QB who joined Minnesota in January is transferring after one semester.

          He was beaten by two freshman. Ended up #3 on the depth chart. Also hearing that he can't keep a 1.0 GPA.

            From what I read, Minnesota is down to one scholarship QB on the roster, a redshirt freshman.

              Correct. 1 play away from a high school backup taking the reigns. (At IMG Academy, nonetheless, but still.)

                They prefer attacking by sea rather than through the air anyway.

                        Fun fact I just learned: Cal counts 1882-1885 and 1906-1914 in their football records even though they played rugby instead, and admit so in the program.

                        I mean, I get they were very similar sports at that point, but it'd be like including your 100m sprint with your 100m hurdle records.

                          This seems like a poor business decision, doesn’t it? Don’t league members share bowl revenue?

                          Now, bowls do require participating schools to sell a certain allotted number of tickets, so unless that’s how teams are losing money, not sure why this makes sense..

                          Isn’t additional exposure for member schools important? (albeit a 5-7 team isn’t playing in a marquee matchup, but the networks still televise every game)

                          What about the 15 extra practices bowl eligible teams recieve and the extra development and opportunity for young guys to get more involved?

                            I thought teams < .500 were not permitted by the NC$$ to get bowl bids.

                              If they aren't enough .500 teams to fill the slots then they rank by academic performance, or whatever the APR actually measures.
