2024 NCAA College Football Thread

[Boston Red]

ESPN has an article on UNLV on their college football front page right now going through the Sluka and conference situations the program faced last week. I thought one line of the article was particularly interesting and shows where we are in 2024 with college football, NIL and moneyed boosters. Would have been crazy if this had come to pass and Sluka would have remained on the team and UNLV's starting QB:

"Last Wednesday morning, a rep for Circa Resort and Casino CEO Derek Stevens called UNLV to ask if he could cover the $100,000 to keep Sluka on the team and keep the program's CFP hopes alive. By then, it was too late."

Interesting. It didn't make sense to me that they couldn't scrape up $100K in that city

The UNLV team may just be better off with the new QB in their quest for the CFP?
