It only hurts the student athlete. But that is what the NCAA always tries to do.

all i think this is is the ncaa being afraid to govern the scc conference because they dont want an compatition

It only hurts the kids whose parents can afford to haul them around the country for camps. Stupid ruling by the NCAA and those six conferences. 2 that wanted to stop it and 4 who can't afford to do

This is proof that the SEC and ESPN are ruling College Football, and not in a good way. There are a lot of kids in the South that live in real poverty. They can't afford to go anywhere to Camp more than a short drive from home. Which is how the SEC and ACC like it.

Mike Leach said it best. The only reason anyone would want them banned is either they're lazy or they're selfishly guarding their recruiting area.

Anything that limits the opportunities for student athletes is a move in the wrong direction by the NCAA, and this limits opportunities. In addition, with official paid JR year visits not available yet, it is difficult for NU to get players onto campus until their SR year, which can be too late.

What's wrong with giving young men exposure to opportunities?

it does not help potential student athletes, especially those without the money to travel. Another door slams in the face of the lower income. A compromise between no camps and going wild with camps should have been reached.

Where is the democratic process. How about conducting a panel of all conferences to see if it is a viable option to create a bit more parody among them. Rather, let the powers that may be; ie SEC- inparticular Alabama Nick Saben...who, o BTW have 2 private jets to use to go after 4/5 star HS athlete

Underprivileged high school kids' exposure will be diminished or limited to just those universities in their region, and will not see additional opportunities/offers from other outside universities.

The only reason this has happened is that the SEC is trying to protect its territory at the expense of the student-athlete. The SEC wants to cherry pick and leave the also rans scrambling for schools to attend,

It's difficult to grasp how a regulation or restriction imposed from the top down can improve competition and help the quality of play. But that's not what they had in mind, of course.

Did the NCAA indicate why this was in the best interest of the Student-Athlete? Satellite camps provided more opportunities for the Student Athlete to gain exposure to coaches and programs they otherwise wouldn't. This is the SEC tail wagging the NCAA dog, protecting its 'turf'.

For northern schools, it is a chance to have greater visibility in the warmer climates. The southern schools do not want to lose recruits to the northern schools running camps in their back yard!

Glad to see an acknowledgement that the O wasn't working. This shows some urgency about winning which I appreciate.

Seems pretty obvious that when something is not working very well and you don’t know how to fix it you bring in outside experts for advise. Common practice.

Holgerson has enough experience that he should be able to watch some film and the players in practice and call plays that play to their strengths. I'm betting he is also smart enough to stick with what's working until the other team stops it, and to develop some offensive rhythm.

Anything is better than Satterfield. But I don't know why we didn't go after the US Army's OC who only makes $190k and absolutely knows how to run the ball.

Reply

Because Army's OC can call the triple option and run the ball, but he probably doesn't know how to call for a pro-style quarterback. Plus it is very unlikely that Army's OC is going to jump ship right now the way their season is going. Maybe gets a look after the season if Holgerson doesn't stay.

Installing a whole new offense would be very difficult. You might be able to refine a small portion but learning the timing and terminology would be difficult.

I doubt that this late in the season this change will help. I hope it does but i have no faith left. The O-line is just horrible.

Good thing we played buffs early. They have improved throughout the season and have been rated most of year. They are moving forward while we are retreating.

My heart says yes, but my head says no. Are they capable? Absolutely, but we haven't seen enough consistency in any of the 3 phases of the game to warrant any confidence that we can win one of the last three games.

Why don't we recruit the Army's offensive coordinator who really know how to develop a running game? And he only makes $190,000 per year.

They have to fight for it. I will be honest and say it depends on which NU team shows up and that’s why I think it’s going to be tough. They could either win the last 3 games but they could also lose the last 3 games.

Nope...hate to say it but we need a dual threat at QB. It was worth the try, but DR is better off served playing for a program that best suits his drop back talent and at this point in time it's not here. We will drop all three and maybe giving Lincoln Riley two weeks to plan...it's not good !

I am not hopeful that this team will win another game this year. Just about every phase of the game is sub par. We have clearly regressed as the season has unfolded. Don't forget how much Jeff Simms was hyped last year; how did that turn out. I don't have confidence in the coaching staff.
