A media report says that Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh is in favor of first and second year college players being eligible for the NFL Draft. This would essentially install the one-and-done system in college football as already exists in basketball. Yet another potential big game-changer for college ball. We’ve got pay-to-players quickly approaching. And now, there is talk of the footballers with a fast track to pro ball.

The Cornhuskers are having to deal with a lot more than just building up the program. They have to formulate a business plan of how they are going to deal with the new college football landscape of tomorrow and how they want to fit into it.

And, one-and-done would certainly have a big effect on the coaching profession. It’s one thing to know that the guys in the locker room you are mentoring are going to be there next year. It’s quite another to know that some of those guys will be gone in a few months.

It looks like some of the guard walls that the NCAA has been fortifying for generations could be coming down real soon. This is great for the young men on the field. For everybody else, it brings lots of question marks.

Yes?  

I mean he was being hyped as this for this season, and all of a sudden he can’t snap? And he still gets first team reps and trotted out?  Yes, I’d call that recent.

I mean ... that's half a season ago.

But you can semantic that however you want.  If they haven't said anything about it in six weeks it would seem that they've done what you asked, right?

To be fair, it's possible Rimington was terrible at shotgun snaps too! Maybe that's why we didn't run this offense in the 80s. And they didn't say he's Rimington now, but I agree in light of the major snap problems the comments don't come across well.
