My point in this thread was I want college experience to be done after 5 years from high school graduation. Are you saying the NBA and NHL frequently have players who exceed the 5 years in college?

Your premise, I thought, was that the age gap gave the older players an advantage because they were more mature and stronger. I am saying that the pro sports I mentioned have young guys excelling v much older players and don’t see that age should matter. If the young guys are good enough they’ll find their spot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clue on the actual numbers or studies. If kids are pro ready for NBA and NHL my guess is they are not the norm. In football and college hoops I'd say the non pro ready kids have a very distinct advantage being 24-25 over 19 year olds. Again...no knowledge of the exact numbers.

bronkonagurski Posted September 2, 2023 Report Share Posted September 2, 2023 I guess Coach Prime is the real deal. I was so certain TCU would beat the crap out of Colorado, I bet TCU to cover -20.5. Oops! 🤷♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosier82 Posted September 2, 2023 Report Share Posted September 2, 2023 Penix putting on a show today. Makes you wonder where this program would be today if DeBoer was given the reigns. Wasn’t feasible at the time but everyone knew we let someone special walk out the door. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn’t much better but it goes to show if you have a qb and some play makers on offense you can beat just about anybody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Methinks the shine is well gone from Dabo's star. When you have Deshaun Watson and Trevor Lawrence you can look a whole lot smarter than you might be. Weird game for sure though. How quickly Clemson has fallen. Now looking at Florida St schedule...I don't see a loss for them this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
