2021 was a decent year for college football. There was chaos and upsets galore.
This year also saw NIL – Name, Image, and Likeness – deals come into play. There were several players who made a lot of money. A group of Texas boosters put a deal together to pay their offensive lineman $50k per year. Deion Sanders was able to sway the #1 recruit nationally to play for him at Jackson State allegedly because of a NIL deal.
The transfer portal – players can do a one-time transfer without having to sit out a season. There are HUNDREDS of players in the transfer portal. Players are transferring and it drastically changes the vibe of your favorite team.
Are the bowls dead? Players are opting out all over, including players opting out of the ROSE BOWL. Have you ever heard of Big Ten players opting out of the Rose Bowl?
Did any or all of these change your attitude about college football? Do you feel like college football as you know it died this year?
I have a book out!
On August 21st, 2015, I unexpectedly dropped dead of a widowmaker heart attack. I was shocked five times on the way to the hospital with no response. I was shocked two more times in the ER. I was dead for over 20 minutes. A stent was placed, and I was induced into a coma. In January 2016 I received a second stent and in June I was diagnosed with an anoxic brain injury. I wrote a book about my death and recovery. The title, “Been Dead, Never Been To Europe” reflects the ironic nature of life, what happens versus what we want to happen. It’s available at Amazon. Consider signing up for my newsletter, which is about me and my interests beyond Cornhuskers sports. (I know, right?)
