A year of readiness would increase chances of graduation and relieve a large amount of pressure put on incoming freshmen athletes.

Yes! Academic support is there for them every step of the way. If they are able to compete then they should have the option to compete. Remember why Marshall needed to play freshmen back in the day??

Blocking freshmen from being eligible to play isn't the response to combat the feeder system into the pro's. They are adults and limiting their choices is the wrong approach.

Antiquated philosophy. College athletes at most schools have excellent academic support and are set up to succeed. I think in basketball, the JUCO system would florish. But, it might destroy the Calipari model, which may not be a terrible thing.

Jerrod W. Atkinson

Because that is rediculous

Daniel Revas

We have had and settled this debate already. some of these "Kids" come out of Programs that would rival some small colleges. Freshman can be Red Shirted if they are not ready.

Zach Akin

Recruiting impact plus if a freshmen can play let them. They earn it through skill and work.

only works if all conferences adopt policy otherwise a significant recruitment advantage

Nebraska is known over the years to have struggled against running Quarterbacks, they have to make sure that doesn’t happen today!!!

Robert Lloyd

I think our OL is the most problematic thing, not Emmett Johnson. If MSU gets on a roll and stops Dylan then we are in trouble.

Mitch Bronston

Any time you stop the run, you make a team one dimensional

the OL has to play better. the running backs can't run if there aren't any holes to run into. they have to protect the QB, 1 or 2 sacks are acceptable, but they can't give up 7 again.

I believe Coach Rhule and his staff have the ability to get the team to understand their shortcomings in the last game and will show them how to overcome the obstacles that Michigan presented. GO BIG RED!!! 🎈🎈🎈

Robert Lloyd

I believe we have three coordinators who will get the job done.

winning 4 big 10 games in a row very difficult with 2 away

Tim Michelsen

15 is stationary needs to help out line. He is a defensive line dream

Betty ONeill

We have to play and coach better

AK-460Mag Nurse

I doubt it, but I'd be happy with 3/4 at this point. Hope I'm wrong though.

Bill Petty

Can't get stops when it counts the most. Can't move ball when it counts the most. O line and D line have been and continue to be a problem. I am not hopeful going forward.

George mcdaniel

They will go 1 and 3

Richard Johnson

We have a DC that can't adjust on the fly.

Sporty361

Our line play is mediocre. We have skill players but our line play on both sides will be our limiting factor. We need to find toughness for 4 quarters. In this age of celebrating every yard, we lose rock hard toughness.

Roy Katskee

Football games are won with offensive and defensive lines. We have neither.

John Reeb

Our O-Line & D-Line are simply not good enough to get the job done.
