Unfortunately Fisch is not there to get his payback. He’s the one that’s owed. Still running it up in this case is more justified than usual due to last year.

USC finally admitted that they couldn’t beat Utah consistently or win the conference consistently with the then current financial system so they needed BIG 10 money. And then they paid Riley a ton of money and still got beat by Utah.

I feel like the current trend is eliminating the possibility of upsets. The unpredictability of college football is going away as money concentrates in the top hands. If a smaller school finds a diamond in the rough that player will be going to a bigger school with NIL and won’t be staying at a small school for years. I heard a stat a few weeks ago that mentioned there were very few upsets of teams favored by 10 or more this year.

Will you watch the PAC 12 title game?

Yes it should be a good game.
No these two teams gave the death blow to the PAC 12.

No idea what az was doing there. The game was over take a knee. We left the bar we were watching at figuring the game was over. We were pretty surprised that another score was put on the board.

Best not to leave a college kicker kicking from the hash. Odds better from middle of field especially at that distance.

Price tag was $321 million.

If he does play the scene there will be even more amazing. We were thinking of coming out from California for this game but we decided to do the Oregon game instead.

Bit of an article on him last year.

His country’s first D-I athlete, USF’s ‘Mongolian Mike’ close to NBA dream

Mike Sharavjamts glanced up from his beef stew as a young waiter mustered the courage to speak with him.

“Excuse me,” the teenage boy said, his voice barely rising above a whisper. “Are you the USF player? My friends have been talking about you.”

Sharavjamts smiled. To many passersby, he probably looked like just another college student. But this was Mongol Cafe in Nob Hill, where San Francisco’s sizable Mongolian community has long gathered to speak the native language, reminisce about the homeland and catch up on current events.

Few topics are more buzzworthy these days than Sharavjamts (SHAR-uv-jomts). Three months after the sophomore point guard withdrew from the NBA draft and transferred from Dayton to the USF, he is a major source of pride for one of the nation’s largest Mongolian populations.
Mike Sharavjamts dines at Mongol Cafe on Nob Hill last month. Sharavjamts, a guard for the USF men’s basketball team, is the only Mongolian-born player to sign with a Division I team.

Between 8,000 and 10,000 Mongolians are believed to live in the Bay Area, many of whom are among the 7,400 followers on USF’s newly launched Facebook page for Mongolian fans. At 6-foot-8, 180 pounds, with smooth ballhandling and elite court vision, Sharavjamts isn’t just Mongolia’s first NBA prospect — he is its first athlete of any kind at the NCAA Division I level.

By charting new territory in the country’s second most popular sport (behind Mongolian wrestling), he has earned iconic status. Three months ago, while visiting his hometown of Ulaanbaatar, Sharavjamts couldn’t leave his parents’ house without being hounded for photos. A popular Mongolian news network recently released a documentary about him that has a quarter-million views on YouTube.

Though shy by nature, Sharavjamts — “Mongolian Mike” to his supporters — hardly minds the attention. This has been his goal for as long as he can remember.

But then he pushes his next contract back a year which will be a lot more than $10 million. If he goes in 2024 he will hit even bigger money in 2028. If he wait until 2025 then it becomes 2029. This seems just like a primadonna drawing more attention. He would be trading one year in college for one year in NFL at most likely over $25 million. Jimmy G made $24 this year according to this.
