Other schools have made attempts at Penn State commit David Tarawallie, and they should, because he's an elite prospect. Why he's been loyal to the Nittany Lions: on3.com/rivals/news/elite-pe…

BOUND BY SUPERMAJORITIES: "That works both ways... We just sent the Protect College Sports legislation over there, and I’m hoping we will send permit reform over there, neither of which they have passed in the House." "It’s easier to pass things in the House—it’s a simple majority. When it comes to the Senate, it takes a supermajority for most controversial legislation, unless we do it through reconciliation... I served in the House for three terms. I love to send stuff to the Senate and then blame the Senate. That’s a normal pretty exercise around here." @LeaderJohnThune

Penn State is expecting its highest number of early enrollees ever after the 2027 recruiting class signs in just three weeks. Learn who all is expected to enroll in January and how it stacks up to previous years. Link ➡️ on3.com/teams/penn-state-nit…

This is why Republicans are morons 🤷‍♂️
Replying to @DemzDeliver
A week ago I voted for this guy as a Republican. Didn't expect this. Prices will rise and low-cost workers will find themselves out of work. McDonalds will become automated in PA like they are in other states where this has happened.

Details of the SEC’s proposed cap policy are emerging: The league would penalize schools in a tiered fine system reaching $10M+ in fines for those spending $70.5M+ on rosters, sources tell @YahooSports. Said one AD: “The new cap would basically be $70M.” bit.ly/4iDrVEx

Some powerful stuff from Chase Sowell about his time at Penn State. "This place kind of saved me."

Been saying this for months now. 🤷‍♂️
Missouri head football coach Eli Drinkwitz absolutely NAILS it (EXACTLY as I have been saying) about how the end of conference title games in the 24-team playoff format cuts the heart out of the sport. It is SO obvious that the conference system, the key to everything that made the sport great, is going to collapse. 😡🤦‍♂️🤮🥲

I asked #Pitt HC Pat Narduzzi about Missouri HC Eli Drinkwitz questioning the usefulness of conferences without league title games: "Maybe everybody should just go independent. We don't have a conference and it's free-for-all.” #H2P

Thank you!! Also no matter what “rules” are agreed upon even in a collectively bargained process, anyone could challenge them because they are students! That is how the Supreme Court is always going to view them. Students not employees.
Certain media and 'Twitter lawyers' continue to push unionization as some magic fix for NCAA college athletics. ​Meanwhile, prominent sports law expert Andrew Brandt shows why collective bargaining is unworkable 👇

I have to agree. With the 24 team playoff there is no incentive anymore to have big brands in College Football associated with a conference. All other sports I can see the benefit. But football no.
A radical idea: abolish college conferences

🤷‍♂️ The pressure is now on House Republicans to pass the Protect College Sports Act on folks.
🚨 A coalition of New York Division I colleges and universities sent letters to members of the New York delegation in the House of Representatives, calling for the swift passage of the Protect College Sports Act. @SyracuseU @Canisius_Univ @FordhamNYC @HofstraU @LeMoyne @ManhattanEdu @Marist @NiagaraUniv @StBonaventure @StJohnsU @SienaUniv @stonybrooku @UBuffalo @WagnerCollege

This @WSUCougars and @OregonState P4 “carve out” situation continues to be very interesting. @pac12 #Power4
Important nugget from @RJ_cfb -- as the CFP expands, WSU and Oregon State still count as P4 teams for 2027. This means the Cougars' games against Washington and Kansas next year should be safe. P4 teams are required to play 10 P4 games under new rules. cbssports.com/college-footba…

🤔 I wonder kind of rating an undefeated Miami vs a one loss Penn State would get?
Replying to @Matt_Fortuna
who wants to tell matt to look at what each game went against.

Penn State QB commit James Armstrong kicked off the WPIAL playoffs with four touchdowns, while RB Jordan Hall scored twice in a playoff win and Top247 WR Landon Blum was instrumental in another Woodbine (Iowa) playoff victory. Following the Future: 247sports.com/college/penn-s…
