Think he wants to become a doctor, so I get it if he wants to finish up undergrad, play in the pros for a few years, and pick up med school after that.

Good luck to everyone playing Stanford in 2018 :scared:

Yeah, I don't think Stanford is going anywhere. Go get your  :moneybag: then become Dr. Love.

 
One thing that was discussed during the coaches meetings about the one time transfer rule that they were spitballing was to have European style transfer fees that the receiving school would pay to the current school for students to leave.   :lmao:

 
Deondre Francois being investigated for domestic violence. What are the odds of this happening to a FSU quarterback?

I’ll never understand how Capella can be a reasonable smart guy on so many matters, yet continue to fully support and take pride in this football program.

There's a plethora of reasons to hate FSU football, but domestic violence investigations happen to pretty much every football program. Probably to any organization containing a lot of men.

Lol :fishing:  

he called the cops guy. 

 
Florida State quarterback Deondre Francois was concerned about salvaging his belongings and a woman’s threat of domestic violence during a Tuesday afternoon incident at his apartment, his 911 call to police revealed on Thursday.

Francois wanted the Tallahassee Police Department to remove his girlfriend from his apartment.

“This girl, she’s tearing up everything in my home,” Francois said in his 911 call obtained by the Orlando Sentinel.

Francois told the dispatcher twice that the woman, who said in an incident report she and Francois had been dating for about a year, was threatening to call police to claim domestic violence during the incident.

“Coming home, and she’s just tearing everything up. And she just threw everything in my room down. I got two flat screens,” Francois said. “She’s trying to say domestic violence, but my best friend is sitting here and seeing her trying to take everything down.”

Francois did not give the dispatcher a clear definition of his relationship with the woman, who told police she is nine weeks pregnant.

“She’s my ex-girlfriend. Yes, well not even my ex-girlfriend. She’s a girl I’ve been seeing a while, but I’ve been telling her that she has to leave, like, soon because … yeah.

“And then she faked like she called the police, but she never even called the police. I just heard her say ‘she called the police for domestic violence.’”

Francois was cleared Wednesday by TPD and the state attorney’s office for his involvement in the dispute.

TPD’s responding officer found no probable cause to make an arrest “based on conflicting statements and lack of an independent witness,” according to the incident report.

The case was deemed closed and inactive.

FSU running back Zaqaundre White was in Francois’ apartment during the incident. White told police the woman began breaking glasses, a vase, and she tried to break a television before locking herself in Francois’ room.

White also said Francois only touched the woman when he tried to remove her from the apartment and defending himself when she swung at him.

The dispatcher advised Francois to distance himself from the woman until police arrived to his apartment.

“I’m cool. I’m not doing nothing. It’s fine,” Francois said. “I just want somebody to come get her please because I’m scared all my stuff is going to be ruined. She’s dropping everything in my house like she wants me. All she has to do is step outside my home.”

Her name is "Diamond".  Francois, let's go 'no Diamonds' in your dating life from here on out.

Well, sure, but as a die hard Duck-fan acquaintance of mine convo went this weekend:

Him: "Didja hear we got a coach from Alabama?!"

Me: "'We?'  You gotta mouse in your pocket?"

Him: "......I think this new guy is CONDITIONING THE TEAM and BRINGING IN BAMA COACHES!!"

Me:  :mellow:   "What kind of coach?"

Him: "......I'm not sure!!!  Maybe linbackers or somethin!  Gotta be good if he is from Bama, right!?!?!"

Sigh.

Something like 60K Nebraska Spring Game (scrimmage) tickets had been sold to season ticket holders.  The rest went on sale to the general public yesterday.  Sold out in an hour.  Some scalpers are trying to sell them for up to $600.  :loco:

Think I told this story before, but my dad has a buddy from church who asked him if I'd be willing to sell him my tickets to the Nebraska/Oregon game.  He asked my dad this like 3 years ago or whenever the game was first announced.  And then he continued to ask my dad.  Every time he saw him at church.  So I promised my dad the guy would have them at face value, but my dad said the guy was loaded, so name your price.  Anyhow, I ended up selling the guy my tickets for a total sum of $700.  My entire season ticket cost for 2 seats was a little over $1,000 and I split them with a neighbor, so $500 per family.  I made more on this game than I spent on the season.  I felt kind of bad getting that much, but the guy not only cut me a check for the game months before it was even played, he wrote me a long thank you note. :lmao:

Nebraska fans...they LOVE their team. 

 
According to Greg Johnson of NCAA.com, the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel has approved a new rule that will allow players to call for a fair catch anywhere inside the 25-yard line on kickoffs and have it result in a touchback, with the football being placed at the 25-yard line.

Previously, touchbacks only occurred when the kickoff was fielded in the end zone.

This new rule will help prevent teams from trying to pin opponents deep in their own territory by skying the kickoff and not giving them much of a chance at a return. In the past, any fair catch in the field of play would result in the ball being placed at the spot where it was fielded.

The vote was yesterday on the new rule proposals and this was one.  I as an official have not heard the results officially.  But I can believe this will pass.

 
If there's one thing we need more of, it's college football players -- offensive and defensive linemen especially -- doing gymnastics things. But there's a drawback: when said football players get stuck in the infamous foam pit. 

Just ask BYU's Motekiai Langi. 

In a story from Daily Herald, Langi was one of multiple BYU athletes who were called upon by gymnastics coach Guard Young to provide some extra motivation and "mental toughness" for his girls. After practice, though, it was all fun and games. The football players saw the foam pit, used to protect gymnasts as they practice tumbling, and had to dive in. 

But then Langi, all 397 pounds of him, got stuck. 

"We all thought it was pretty funny until we realized we couldn't get him out," Young told the paper. "Then I was like, 'Seriously, how do you get someone like that out of the foam pit?' We got him out, but it took some effort and some football players to help. Thankfully, I didn't get a phone call from (football coach Kalani Sitake) about it. We kept him safe."
