Picture has NC State going against itself. Sounds about right.

A bipartisan bill proposing sweeping changes to how college sports operate passed the Senate. Here’s what’s happening. (Corrects an earlier image, now deleted, that incorrectly said the Senate passed a law.) 🔗 on.wsj.com/4ypYBqE

GM is the most critical piece imo. Hire a guy with COLLEGE experience identifying portal talent and managing NIL/rev share.

Every reason NC State hired Rivers checks the same boxes UNC had when they hired Belichick. The only way it’ll be different? Staff. Belichick brought his buddies who didn’t understand college football. How will it look for Rivers? Time to find out.

Will it work? Who knows. Are boosters and the fan base excited? Yes. High-risk, high-reward like most coaching hires.

BREAKING: Philip Rivers is coming home. The NC State legend is finalizing a deal to return to the Wolfpack as the program's 37th head coach, as we reported to @PackPower247 subscribers on Saturday. ✍️: 247sports.com/college/north-…

Philip Rivers is a great hire for NC State. I have no idea if it will work out.

Will be interesting to see what hiring PR does to unlock fundraising because this whole thing is contingent on that happening. But if it doesn’t…yikes.

Risky move obviously but after yesterday I’m not sure what else can get this fan base fired up

If an editor with little/no experience came with 30% more money for writers than some rockstar editor you’d hire the newbie, right?

NC State can now get a head start on hiring a high school coach to run a Power 4 football program.

When you're down 24-3 you simply have to attempt this FG if you're NC State.

Look, Philip may not work out as a college head coach but State already tried the ‘normal’ thing and look where it got the football program for 14 years. These national talking/writing heads can’t see the future and don’t know the nuances of being a head coach at State in 2027.

I think it could work great. Might not. If Rivers means orders of magnitude more for the roster, why can’t it? He has so many coaching connections. Deion is not a good comp. He doesn’t even try to do a lot of the stuff you need to succeed. I don’t think Rivers is a grift.

We have confirmed @TheAthletic that LIV Golf will be pivoting to a wind down, per multiple sources briefed on the matter. BC Partners feels as though it has run out of time to make LIV 2.0 viable. The news was first reported by @sindap of @FT. nytimes.com/athletic/7733136…

BC Partners no longer believed LIV would have enough players to constitute a viable golf league.
