    OUCH: BYU, Baylor Have ZERO Players Taken in NFL Draft, But That's... a Good Thing? Transfer Portal?
    Apr 29 2025
    It's true that in the 2025 NFL Draft, Baylor, Houston, and BYU didn't have any of their football players selected. While the ultimate goal for many college players is to reach the NFL, a year with zero draft picks for these programs can actually signal a significant amount of talent opting to return for another season, which can be a major boon for their on-field prospects in the 2025 college football season.Here's why the lack of 2025 NFL Draft picks for these Big 12 football programs could be a positive indicator of returning talent:Baylor:Zero Draft Picks, Potential for Experienced Core: While Baylor might have seen some players graduate or transfer, the absence of any draftees suggests that their key underclassmen and upperclassmen with NFL potential chose to return for another year. This could mean a more experienced and cohesive team heading into the 2025 season.Building Consistency: After a period of fluctuation, a strong core of returning players can provide much-needed consistency and leadership as Coach Dave Aranda continues to build the program. Players who might have been borderline draft prospects could be betting on themselves to have a standout 2025 season and improve their future draft stock.Houston:Zero Draft Picks, Maintaining Momentum in the Big 12: As a newer member of the Big 12, maintaining continuity is crucial for Houston. The lack of draft picks could indicate that their key contributors from their initial Big 12 campaigns are returning, providing a strong foundation to build upon.Developing Within the System: Another year in Coach Willie Fritz's system can be invaluable for players who aspire to the NFL. Returning talent suggests they believe in the coaching staff and the program's trajectory to help them achieve their professional goals down the line.BYU:Zero Draft Picks, Solidifying Their Big 12 Foothold: Similarly to Houston, BYU is establishing itself in the Big 12. The absence of draft picks could mean that their key players who navigated their first season in the conference are returning, bringing crucial experience and familiarity with the higher level of competition.Building for Long-Term Success: For BYU, retaining talent is vital for building a sustainable program in the Big 12. Players with NFL aspirations choosing to stay could indicate a belief in the program's long-term vision and their role within it.The Upside: Returning Experience and Potential for Improvement:For all three programs, a year without any draft picks can translate to several advantages for the upcoming football season:Increased Experience and Leadership: Returning players bring valuable experience, leadership, and a deeper understanding of the team's schemes and culture.Stronger Team Chemistry: Continuity in the roster can foster better team chemistry and cohesion, which is crucial for on-field successSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Supply HouseJoin the Trade Master program today at SupplyHouse.com/TM and start ordering plumbing, HVAC, and electrical supplies with just a few clicks.

  • Shedeur Sander's NFL Draft TRAGEDY, Richie Saunders BACK at BYU, Travis Hunters Big Day

    Shedeur Sander's NFL Draft TRAGEDY, Richie Saunders BACK at BYU, Travis Hunters Big Day
    Apr 28 2025

    Shedeur Sanders was selected by the Cleveland Browns in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft with the 144th overall pick.

    Pre-Draft Context:

    Leading up to the draft, Sanders was a highly discussed prospect. Some analysts projected him as a potential first-round pick, while others believed he would be selected later. Concerns were raised by some regarding his limited participation in pre-draft events and reports of negative feedback from anonymous NFL sources about his interviews.

    College Career and Statistics:

    Sanders had a notable college career, including time at Jackson State and the University of Colorado. Across 50 games, he completed 70.1% of his passes for 14,327 yards and 134 touchdowns. In his senior year at Colorado (2024), he threw for 4,134 yards and 37 touchdowns, earning accolades such as the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award and Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year.

    NFL Draft and Browns Selection:

    Despite pre-draft buzz, Sanders slid to the fifth round before being picked by the Browns. This was a surprise to some, as he was considered a top quarterback prospect by various analysts. There was speculation about potential reasons for his slide, including evaluations of his overall talent, size, athleticism, sack rate, and off-field perceptions.

    Family Context:

    Shedeur Sanders is the son of Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders. His brother, Shilo Sanders, also signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as an undrafted free agent after the draft.

    NIL and Financials:

    Sanders was one of the top college athletes in terms of NIL valuation, earning an estimated $6.5 million through deals with brands like Nike and Gatorade. His initial NFL contract is projected to be around $4.6 million over four years, which is less than his NIL earnings.

    Reactions and Future Outlook:

    Despite the draft slide, Sanders and his family expressed optimism. Some analysts believe he will have a chip on his shoulder and the potential to succeed in the NFL. He will be part of the quarterback competition in Cleveland.

  • WOW: Shedeur Sanders UNDRAFTED in NFL Draft, Media's SMEAR CAMPAIGN Against Deion Sanders Caused It

    WOW: Shedeur Sanders UNDRAFTED in NFL Draft, Media's SMEAR CAMPAIGN Against Deion Sanders Caused It
    Apr 26 2025
    As of Friday, April 25, 2025, at 1:27 AM EDT, Shedeur Sanders has not been selected in the NFL Draft. This is surprising to many, as he was widely considered a potential first-round pick leading up to the draft. After the first three rounds (102 picks), and with five other quarterbacks already selected (Cam Ward, Jaxson Dart, Tyler Shough, Jalen Milroe, and Dillon Gabriel), Sanders' name has yet to be called. Here's a breakdown of the situation:Fell out of the first round: Predictions leading up to the draft suggested his stock might be falling, but many still anticipated him being a Day 1 selection.Passed over in Rounds 2 and 3: Several teams with potential quarterback needs in the second and third rounds also opted for other players.Remains a top available prospect: Despite not being drafted yet, some analysts still consider Sanders one of the best players remaining on the board heading into Day 3 (Rounds 4-7).Pre-draft process concerns: Some reports indicated that Sanders' limited participation in pre-draft events (no East-West Shrine Bowl, no NFL Combine workout, only one press conference) might have concerned NFL evaluators. Anonymous criticism: There have been reports of negative feedback from anonymous NFL sources regarding his interviews and demeanor.Statistical Performance: In his college career, including his time at Jackson State and Colorado, Sanders has impressive statistics:Completed 70.1% of his passes for 14,353 yards and 134 touchdowns with 27 interceptions across 50 games. In his senior year at Colorado (2024), he completed 74.0% of his passes for 4,134 yards with 37 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He set numerous records at Colorado and earned accolades like the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award and Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year in 2024. Potential reasons for the slide:Evaluation: Some analysts believe his on-field talent might be good but not elite compared to other hyped quarterback prospects. Comparisons to players like Teddy Bridgewater (late first round) and Geno Smith (second round) have been made. Size and athleticism: At 6'1 1/2" and 212 pounds, he might be considered slightly undersized by some NFL teams. His athleticism is viewed as good but not exceptional.Sack rate and time to throw: His pressure-to-sack rate and average time to throw were areas of concern for some evaluators.Off-field concerns: Maturity and off-field perceptions, though difficult to quantify, have also been mentioned as potential factors.Shedeur Sanders and his family are reportedly surprised by how the draft hasSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Supply HouseJoin the Trade Master program today at SupplyHouse.com/TM and start ordering plumbing, HVAC, and electrical supplies with just a few clicks.

  • HELP: Iowa State to BYU, Colorado to TCU, Transfer Portal is KILLING Big 12 Football, NIL, SEC Race

    HELP: Iowa State to BYU, Colorado to TCU, Transfer Portal is KILLING Big 12 Football, NIL, SEC Race
    Apr 24 2025
    It's certainly a period of intense activity and, for many programs in the Big 12 (and across the nation), a source of both opportunity and significant challenge during the football transfer portal windows. While "suffering" might be a strong and perhaps overly generalized term, there are definitely common anxieties and hurdles that schools like BYU, Iowa State, Colorado, Utah, and UCF are navigating.Here's a look at some of the pressures and potential "suffering" points each of these programs might be experiencing in the transfer portal:BYU:Rebuilding and Maintaining Momentum: After a solid first season in the Big 12, BYU is likely looking to bolster specific positions to compete at a higher level consistently. The challenge lies in attracting Power Five-caliber talent while also retaining key players who might be tempted by other opportunities.NIL Competition: BYU, while having a dedicated fanbase, might face challenges competing with the potentially larger NIL collectives at some of the more established Big 12 programs or those with deeper financial pockets.Finding the Right Fits: Integrating transfers who align with the program's culture and values is crucial for BYU. Mismatched transfers can disrupt team chemistry.Iowa State:Maintaining Consistency After Success: Coming off a strong season, Iowa State faces the pressure of maintaining that level of success. The portal can be a double-edged sword – they might lose key contributors who seek new opportunities, and they need to find replacements who can seamlessly integrate into their established system.Development vs. Portal Reliance: Coach Matt Campbell's program has historically been built on development. The increased portal activity forces a balance between developing high school recruits and relying on transfers for immediate needs.Keeping Homegrown Talent: Iowa State needs to work hard to retain its talented players who might be targeted by programs in other conferences or those offering more lucrative NIL deals.Colorado:High Visibility, High Turnover: Under Coach Deion Sanders, Colorado has experienced significant roster turnover through the portal. While this has brought in talent, it also creates constant churn and the challenge of building long-term cohesion.Managing Expectations and Reality: The high-profile nature of the program attracts attention, and transfer portal additions are heavily scrutinized. Ensuring these additions translate to on-field success and fit the team dynamic is a constant pressure.NIL Sustainability: Maintaining the financial backing for a large number of transfers, especially with potentially high NIL demands, can be a long-term challenge.Utah:Sustaining Success in a New Conference: After years of success in the Pac-12, Utah is adjusting to the Big 12 landscape. They need to strategically use the portal to fill gaps and enhance their roster to compete with established Big 12 contenders.Replacing Key Departures: Any program that loses key starters or experienced players to the portal faces the challenge of finding immediate and capable replacements. This can be particularly difficult at crucial positions.Navigating the New Rivalries: The dynamics of the Big 12 rivalries, including the renewed one with BYU and the existing ones with Colorado and Arizona, add another layer to portal activity as players might be more inclined to stay or leave based on these rivalries.UCF:Building a Power Five Foundation: As a newer member of the Big 12, UCF is actively using the portal to upgrade its roster to consistently compete at the Power Five level. This involves attracting players who have experience or potential to excel in a tougher conference.Establishing a Consistent Culture: With significant roster changes through the portal, maintaining a strong and unified team culture can be a challenge. Integrating new players while preserving the program's identity is crucial.Recruiting Against Established Brands: UCF might face competition from more historically established Big 12 programs when targeting transfers. They need to offer a compelling vision and opportunity to attract top talent.Common "Suffering" Points Across the Big 12:Beyond the individual program challenges, there are broader issues affecting many Big 12 teams in the transfer portal:Roster Volatility: The constant influx and outflow of players make long-term roster planning and development more difficult.Team Chemistry Concerns: Integrating a large number of new players each year can impact team chemistry and cohesion, which are vital for success.NIL Arms Race: The pressure to provide competitive NIL packages to attract and retain players is a financial strain for many programs.Uncertainty and Anxiety: Coaches and players alike face uncertainty during the portal windows. Players might be unsure of their roles, and coaches might lose key contributors unexpectedly.Time Commitment: Managing the transfer portal – recruiting potential additions and managing departing ...

  • REPORT: BYU EXPOSED for STEALING Utah Players, Tampering in Transfer Portal with Big NIL in Football

    REPORT: BYU EXPOSED for STEALING Utah Players, Tampering in Transfer Portal with Big NIL in Football
    Apr 23 2025
    Utah fans have voiced accusations against BYU regarding the football transfer portal. These accusations often arise when Utah players transfer to BYU, leading to speculation about improper recruitment practices. Here's a breakdown of the situation:Allegations, not proven facts: It's crucial to understand that these are primarily allegations and concerns raised by fans and some reporters. No formal investigations or confirmations of tampering by the NCAA or any other authority have been publicly announced.Nature of the accusations: The concerns often revolve around the possibility of BYU coaches or boosters contacting Utah players before they officially entered the transfer portal, which would be a violation of NCAA rules. There are also sometimes insinuations about Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deals being used as improper inducements. Heightened rivalry: The intense rivalry between the University of Utah and BYU naturally amplifies any transfer activity between the two schools, making such moves subject to scrutiny and suspicion from fans.Transfer portal complexities: The NCAA transfer portal, while intended to provide greater flexibility for student-athletes, has also created complexities and potential loopholes that could be exploited. This has led to widespread concerns about tampering across college football, not just in the Utah-BYU context. Difficulty in proving tampering: Tampering is notoriously difficult to prove. Often, there is no direct evidence, and decisions can be influenced by various factors, including playing time, coaching changes, and personal preferences.General Information about Tampering in the Transfer Portal:NCAA Rules: NCAA rules prohibit schools from contacting student-athletes who are currently enrolled at other four-year institutions unless those athletes have officially entered the transfer portal.Potential Penalties: If found guilty of tampering, schools can face various penalties, including recruiting restrictions, fines, and even suspensions for coaches.NIL and Tampering: The introduction of NIL has further complicated the issue, with concerns that boosters might be using NIL deals to entice players to transfer, potentially before they enter the portal. This area is still evolving, and the NCAA is trying to establish clear guidelines. Prevalence of Concerns: Frustration and accusations of tampering are not unique to the Utah-BYU rivalry. Many coaches across the country have expressed concerns about the prevalence of tampering in the transfer portal era.In summary, while some Utah fans are accusing BYU of tampering in the football transfer portal, these remain allegations without concrete proof. The intense rivalry between the schools and the complexities of the transfer portal and NIL contribute to these suspicions. Tampering is a broader concern in college football, and it is often difficult to substantiate such claims.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Supply HouseJoin the Trade Master program today at SupplyHouse.com/TM and start ordering plumbing, HVAC, and electrical supplies with just a few clicks.

  • "THEY ARE A LOCK:" Utah LEAVING Big 12 for Big 10 CONFIRMED By Reporter, But is this Expansion LIE?

    "THEY ARE A LOCK:" Utah LEAVING Big 12 for Big 10 CONFIRMED By Reporter, But is this Expansion LIE?
    Apr 22 2025
    While Utah officially joined the Big 12 Conference in the summer of 2024, rumors have begun to circulate suggesting a potential future move to the Big Ten.Source of the Rumor:On Sunday, April 13, 2025, a message board post from a Utah fan gained traction on social media. The poster claimed inside information from the Utah Athletic Department indicating that the integration into the Big 12 has been more challenging than publicly acknowledged. The post alleged disagreements between Utah representatives and Big 12 leadership concerning media rights discussions and scheduling logistics, suggesting Utah's operational style aligns more closely with the Pac-12's academic-centric approach. The most significant claim was that a move by Utah to the Big Ten is "all but a done deal" within the coming month. Reactions and Analysis:This rumor has sparked considerable discussion among fans and college football analysts. Some believe that the academic prestige and potential for greater revenue within the Big Ten could be attractive to Utah. The collapse of the Pac-12, Utah's former conference, and the subsequent media deals secured by the Big Ten have further fueled this speculation.However, it's crucial to note that this remains a rumor originating from an unverified source. As of today, April 21, 2025, there has been no official announcement from the University of Utah or the Big Ten Conference regarding such a move.Factors to Consider:Big Ten Expansion: The Big Ten has shown a willingness to expand its footprint, most recently with the additions of USC and UCLA. Further expansion, potentially including schools from the Mountain Time Zone, wouldn't be unprecedented.Media Rights: The financial benefits of joining the Big Ten, particularly its lucrative media rights deals, could be a significant motivator for any university.Academic Alignment: The rumor suggests Utah's academic values might align better with the institutions in the Big Ten.Fan Sentiment: While some Utah fans might welcome a move to a perceived "stronger" conference, others may be wary of the travel distances and the potential disruption after just joining the Big 12.Big 12 Stability: The Big 12, even after the departures of Oklahoma and Texas, has positioned itself as a competitive conference with the additions of the "Pac-12 Four" (Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, and Utah) and other strong programs.Conclusion:While the rumor of Utah potentially leaving the Big 12 for the Big Ten is currently prevalent in online discussions, it is essential to treat it as speculation until official announcements are made. The alleged reasons for the potential move, such as clashes with Big 12 leadership and a better fit with the Big Ten, are unconfirmed. Utah just officially joined the Big 12 in 2024, and leaving after such a short period would be a significant development. It's a situation worth monitoring, but for now, Utah remains a member of the Big 12 Conference.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Supply HouseJoin the Trade Master program today at SupplyHouse.com/TM and start ordering plumbing, HVAC, and electrical supplies with just a few clicks.

  • EXPOSED: Tennessee Caught TAMPERING With Big 12 Quarterbacks in Transfer Portal from BYU to Baylor

    EXPOSED: Tennessee Caught TAMPERING With Big 12 Quarterbacks in Transfer Portal from BYU to Baylor
    Apr 21 2025
    It appears Tennessee's quarterback recruiting efforts in the transfer portal have faced some challenges, specifically concerning quarterbacks from BYU, Baylor, Iowa State, and Kansas State. While specific reasons for each potential target not landing with the Volunteers aren't explicitly detailed in the provided search results, we can analyze the situation based on available information and typical transfer portal dynamics.BYU Quarterbacks:There's no direct mention of Tennessee specifically targeting a BYU quarterback in the portal. However, BYU has seen some portal activity. Quarterback Jake Retzlaff was mentioned in a Reddit discussion about potential transfer targets for other schools back in April 2025, but there's no indication of Tennessee's interest or his final decision.Baylor Quarterbacks:Baylor quarterback Sawyer Robertson entered the transfer portal, and Tennessee was mentioned as a likely destination by a Texas Rivals forum. The discussion highlighted Robertson's experience and similar playing style to Tennessee's departing quarterback, Nico Iamaleava. However, there's no confirmation he committed to Tennessee in the provided results.Iowa State Quarterbacks:There's no information in the search results suggesting Tennessee targeted an Iowa State quarterback in the portal. Iowa State did see some players enter the portal, but they were primarily offensive linemen and a wide receiver.Kansas State Quarterbacks:Similar to Iowa State, the provided results don't indicate Tennessee's pursuit of a Kansas State quarterback.General Observations and Potential Reasons for Missing Targets:NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) Deals: The transfer portal landscape is heavily influenced by NIL opportunities. Players often seek schools offering more lucrative deals, as alluded to in the discussion surrounding Nico Iamaleava's departure from Tennessee. It's possible the quarterbacks Tennessee targeted received more attractive financial packages elsewhere.Playing Time: Quarterbacks in the portal are typically looking for a clear path to playing time. Tennessee, undergoing quarterback transitions after Iamaleava's transfer, might not have offered the certainty some sought. The presence of young quarterbacks already on the roster, like George MacIntyre and Jake Merklinger, could have also influenced transfer decisions.Offensive Fit: Quarterbacks evaluate offensive schemes to find a system that best suits their skillset. Tennessee's offensive style might not have been the preferred fit for the quarterbacks they pursued.Recruiting Competition: Other programs with quarterback needs also actively recruit the portal. Tennessee likely faced competition from multiple schools for these players, and the quarterbacks may have chosen other options for various reasons, including coaching staff, location, or perceived chances of success.In conclusion, while Tennessee was potentially in the mix for quarterbacks like Baylor's Sawyer Robertson, they seemingly didn't land any quarterbacks from BYU, Baylor, Iowa State, or Kansas State in the portal as of the information available.
