This is mostly correct from a rule standpoint and completely correct from a practical standpoint. Yes, the in-helmet comms rule only applies to games involving FBS teams. This doesn't specifically...

For what it's worth, these rule changes are actually more in line with the UFL's rules than the NFL's.

Also, just FYI, the in-helmet communication rule only applies to games involving FBS teams. ...

Wow! I don't know if that's entirely unprecedented but I certainly don't remember entire program essentially getting a "do-over year".

No.



QFT. SBU could just as easily decide to join the Canadian U Sports league and play the University of Guelph every year and I doubt their fanbase would be in any way surprised,...

Aside from the fact that they are all technically academic institutions, there is no correlation of any kind between the Patriot League and the Sun Belt.

BC hires Bill O'Brien as their new head coach. Reno is, presumably, staying put.

Could also be that the BC head coaching job has proven to be a pretty good stepping stone position.

Could also also be the salary at Yale ($200K-$300K) vs the salary at Boston College ($2 million...

Football Scoop has an interesting read on the Roehl -> TSU move from Eddie George's perspective.
...

Not a head coach change but interesting:

NDSU OC Tyler Roehl has left the Bison for the same position at... Tennessee State?

Granted, Roehl's days were probably numbered in Fargo after he...

To regulate transfers, no. None at all.

FCS-adjacent:

Former Lehigh and Elon HC Pete Lembo is expected to be announced as the new head coach at U of Buffalo.

It's college football in Texas. Every board member thinks they're the ones calling the shots and the AD is just there to figure out prices at the concession stands.

EDIT: He has taken an off-the-field role at Kentucky.

I'm curious as to how many "one-sided" rivalries there are, as in where one school considers it a rivalry but the other doesn't. Back in the old Big South, Gardner-Webb considered Liberty a rival...

According to FootballScoop, this situation has "gone off the rails". Apparently, the board at Texas Southern couldn't come to a consensus on McNair despite multiple meetings and the Tigers are now...

Interesting. Former Husker Mickey Joseph just got the Grambling job and former Husker Mike Minter resigns from his job the next day? Hmmm.

Right? Punctuation matters.

As is, I feel like...

I am consistently surprised that Willie Mack Garza keeps finding D1 jobs. Dude is a walking red flag. Besides multiple DUI's, WGM has a two-year show-cause penalty on his record from his time at...
