Big 10 Commissioner Tony Petitti controls the additional playoff expansion for the College Football Playoffs. Just as we settled on expanding to 12 teams a couple weeks ago, we are now headed toward the college football playoff expansion to 14 teams. One wonders, if this is inevitable, why not jump to 16? A lot of this fails to make sense and it absolutely continues to water down the importance of regular season Saturday afternoons! Be assured that whatever is decided, the Big 10 will control the rules and the money, along with the SEC.
CAILTIN CLARK TO WNBA
Meanwhile, despite owning another year of eligibility due to the Covid-year, Iowa superstar Caitlin Clark announced she will turn pro and enter the WNBA draft. Most project her to go number 1 to the Indiana Fever. We wish her well and hope her popularity follows her there!
Michigan State basketball coach Tom Izzo is tired of answering questions about 6-11 freshman Xavier Booker. Izzo brought him along slowly despite Spartans fans desire to see him get more minutes.
In football, with the NFL Draft less than two months away, Penn State’s Chop Robinson garners a lot of attention. One NFL insider calls him a freakish athlete.
