BREAKING UGA QB Carson Beck Changes Mind on NFL- to Enter Portal

[davefrat]

It's not a generational thing - Nascar has lost over half it viewership in less than a decade.

They thought the fans would never go away, took them for granted, and changed the sport too much for many to like it anymore. Sound familiar?

Idk much about the governance or rule changes, but aside from it being like a redneck Grateful Dead scene before and after the race, it’s really incredibly boring.

Idk how anyone can watch it on tv…and listening to it on the radio?

Listening to someone describe cars driving in a circle at high rates of speed….yeah sounds epic

You think he likes his chances against the 2025 Hurricanes schedule vs UGA or Bama’s?

Against this schedule he will be a first round pick again and have some extra cash to boot. I will say again that I do not blame the players for moving around if they can get more money. I just think it is sad that a game that I grew up loving does not exist any longer. Most of my friends spent a lot of time watching college football through the years, and now most of my friends don't watch much college football at all. I have a hard time watching just because of the ridiculous amount of instant replay, especially when it is still wrong about a third of the time. The targeting rule, though, is the absolute worst. Combine targeting and instant replay and I simply cannot watch. It's horrible. The hired gun aspect of the game is simply the dirt on the coffin to me. I'm glad that some of you at least like the NFL so you can get your football fix, but I decided long ago that it was not my cup of tea any longer. Anyway, I keep saying to myself that I will stop repeating myself here, but it truly does sadden me, and I feel like a lot of you are in the same boat. I guess misery truly does love company. Roll Tide!

I'd take this with a grain of salt. If we were truly looking for another QB we'd also "heard" of us contacting other candidates but we haven't. But even still, if this is true, it just means our QB room needs to step up and improve.

Good old yellow journalism. William Hearst would be proud what he started a century ago is live and well. Can't trust anything anybody writes.

He has the best of both worlds. He gets paid more for 1 year than he will his first 3 in the NFL PLUS he gets to compete with a schedule that should make him a first rounder when he does go.

I'm with you, I'm not a fan. But this isn't about whether you or I like it, it's about the viability of a sport over time wrt fundamental changes in the sport. In 2005, NASCAR races had higher TV ratings than the NBA, MLB, and NHL - now it trails all of them (in addition to the NFL). MLS has surpassed NASCAR viewership as well. NO ONE would have predicted this.

There aren't fewer racing fans, fewer rednecks, etc. - the sport fundamentally changed too much, as TPTB thought the racing fans would never leave. They were wrong.

Same with CFB - when they fundamentally change the sport in a manner where formerly hardcore fans begin losing interest, the formerly unthinkable should be considered as a possibility. No one has a crystal ball, but I know far too many formerly die-hard CFB fans that literally barely watched their own teams this year.

I used to religiously keep up with our recruiting classes but don't see the point anymore. Half of them will transfer before they get to their second year.

Stopped following nascar when they quit racing real cars.

True, but I just didn't see enough in him to thing he could lead us to a NC. Apparently, neither did Jawga.

Honestly they should have won it all last year but a fumbled handoff, and a safe game by the Alabama offense prevented it.

But I think Bobo might be the Cam Cameron and Doug Nussmeir 2.0
