🚨BREAKING🚨
The Rivals Five-Star is BACK!
We are bringing 100 of the best prospects in America to Jacksonville to compete on June 25-26.
Invites coming soon via DM 👀
After a blowout 42-24 loss at Mississippi State today, Jimbo Fisher, who would be owed more than $95 million if he was fired without cause, has the same record (37-16) as Kevin Sumlin through their first 53 games as the coach at Texas A&M.
It's not that Colorado is horrible and it's not Deion Sanders is a bad coach.
Colorado has no offensive line or depth. Their best player has a lacerated liver. They're coming off three emotional wins.
Colorado will get smoked by Oregon here and USC next and then they'll be OK.
When a female coach like Kim Mulkey is a tough, contentious coach she “lays waste to everything and everyone in her path.”
When Bob Knight or Nick Saban acted the same way, they were tough SOBs getting the most out of their players.
Totally unfair double standard.
After trading messages with a bunch of Nebraska commits and targets in both the 2023 and 2024 class, one thing is clear following the hiring of Matt Rhule:
They want Mickey Joseph on staff.

is one of the best four teams but if you lose by 20 to a team that struggles scoring and then lose your conference title game and still get in because "they look like a top-four team" then what are we doing here?
Since the beginning of November, Texas A&M has landed Walter Nolen, Chris Marshall, Leveon Moss, Evan Stewart, Mark Nabou and Gabriel Brownlow-Dindy. Just an incredible run by Jimbo Fisher and his staff.
The word is Colorado coach Deion Sanders and his staff are making a serious run at four-star all-purpose back Dylan Edwards, who just decommitted from Notre Dame.
Kalen DeBoer is now 104-11 as a head coach. More than 90 percent wins.
Just consider that for a minute. Also, best two-year stretch in Washington football history.
The guy is a winner in every way.
Deion Sanders said he’s the best recruiter, huh? That’s nice.
He’s coached 32 games. Alabama coach Nick Saban has a combined 32 national titles, SEC titles and SEC West championships.
Whatever.
I've been told Oregon was fully aware Dante Moore's flip was more than possible and has contingency plans in place including a top QB on campus this past weekend.
Signing Day is fun.
Bryce Young torched everybody at Mater Dei and torched everybody at Alabama.
I don't care if he measured at 5'10 1/2 or if Todd McShay would be scared to death of drafting him if he was a GM.
Young is a phenomenal talent and given any support around him will shine in the NFL.
Complete trash from Michigan State. Should be embarrassed by this entire sorry excuse for a season. Itayvion Brown contributes basically nothing on the field but is willing to fight in the tunnel. 🗑️🗑️🗑️
This is where it gets tricky for Harbaugh:
NCAA Bylaw reads: “An institution's head coach shall be held responsible for the head coach's actions and the actions of all institutional staff members who report, directly or indirectly, to the head coach."
Who cares if Ohio St is behind the private investigator looking at Michigan.
It still doesn't disprove the allegations about Michigan which are damning. If anything, it backs them up more.
If Ohio State hired a PI and found nothing, that's embarrassing. That's not the case.
Five-star quarterback Nico Iamaleava leads the way but the defensive group in this Tennessee class now with LB Caleb Herring and DB Sylvester Smith onboard is really special.
@Volquest_Rivals
The real disgrace in the Chase Young story is that he needs to take a loan from a family friend in the first place. Should have plenty of money in the bank for how much he makes for Ohio State each week.
QB Maalik Murphy, RB Jaydon Blue and WRs Evan Stewart and Armani Winfield is a hell of a start to the skill players in the

recruiting class.
Based on star rankings of projected starters, this is how teams would be ranked:
Clemson - 92 (total stars among starters)
Texas A&M - 91
Ohio State - 89
Georgia - 88
Alabama - 85
Oregon - 84
Penn State - 83
Oklahoma - 81
Texas - 81
Florida - 80
Miami - 80
Notre Dame - 80
Recent Ohio State WR recruiting has been insane:
Brandon Inniss - 5
Carnell Tate - 5
Emeka Egbuka - 5
Jaxon Smith-Njigba - 5
Julian Fleming - 5
Garrett Wilson - Should've been 5
Chris Olave - Should've been 5
And now 2024 5-star Jeremiah Smith joins the Buckeyes. Awesome run.
Can Dabo Swinney please stop talking about “little old Clemson” he is a multi-millionaire with all kinds of crazy financial incentives and has a staff of about 50 working there. This isn’t exactly a Hoosiers remake.
Clay Wedin, Jaylon Braxton, Jordan Hall, Demitrius Bell and Chance Rucker all commit to Michigan State so far in June. We 👀 you Mel Tucker
@RivalsKillop
Since the beginning of April,
#Clemson
#ALLIN
has landed commitments from the Nos. 1, 6, 16, 23 and 42 players in the country. Four are five-stars and one is one step away from five-star status. Complete domination on the recruiting trail.
What would happen if Purdue refuses to play Michigan this weekend since there is obviously something nefarious going on - and might have been going on for a while?
Jim Harbaugh cannot be this naive.
He's not defending himself against the government with his "innocent until proven guilty" schtick he took today from a high school civics class.
The NCAA bylaws basically say the opposite. Friday will be interesting for everyone.
The No. 1 player in the
@RivalsPortal
Caleb Downs is headed to Ohio State according to multiple reports.
Cannot be stated how big of a win this is for Ryan Day and staff. Downs led Alabama in tackles as a freshman.
@Birm
UGA dominating TE recruiting:
2020: Five-star Darnell Washington
2021: Four-star Brock Bowers, who could be the best TE in college football
2022: No. 3 TE Oscar Delp
2023: No. 2 TE Pearce Spurlin with UGA in Duce Robinson's top four.
2024: No. 1 TE Landen Thomas committed
Five-star DE Jayden Wayne who is from Tacoma (Wash.) Lincoln and will play his senior season at Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy tells me he will commit July 9, his sister’s birthday
@Rivals
Five-star safety Peyton Bowen breaks down his signing day drama, how it all unfolded and why Oklahoma won out in the end.
"This is my decision. It's not anybody else's."
Much more from Under Armour Media Day here:
If WR Ryan Wingo ends up picking Missouri, the Tigers' recruiting class would join only Georgia and Alabama as having multiple five-stars in the SEC.
Absolutely great job by Eli Drinkwitz and his staff if they can land Wingo in the coming days.
@PowerMizzoucom
If this was all about developing players, Nick Saban would have stayed at Toledo.
No, it’s about achievement, maximum opportunities and a financial windfall.
That’s perfectly OK. But Saban shouldn’t deride players for trying to chase the same things.
Very good argument by Kirby Smart about moving the Florida/Georgia game to Athens and Gainesville. Getting recruits in for that weekend is huge and that cannot be done in Jacksonville. Didn't think of it that way until now. Move it!
Not many teams can get Aaron Donald out to a recruiting event. Not many teams have the luxury of selling LA. Not many teams have a coach who's had Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray and Caleb Williams.
Is USC the real sleeping giant in college football?
First, Kane Wommack and now Maurice Linguist?
Pretty impressive that Alabama is hiring current HEAD coaches as assistants in Tuscaloosa.
@TideIllustrated
This officiating crew in Alabama-Tennessee is pitiful.
Bryce Young gets blasted right in the face mask, an obvious targeting, and no call.
Now the refs have no idea what freaking down it is. Joke.
Was just told that five-star WR Jeremiah Smith is expected to send in his Ohio State paperwork "now"
Obviously keeping a close eye on this one but doesn't seem like a major surprise situation playing out.

@Rivals
With all the crazy nonsense going on out there it’s pretty wild that the NCAA comes down hard on Florida State for an assistant driving a recruit to an NIL meeting.
NCAA continues to be wildly late to its own party.
Four-star RB Nathaniel Frazier from Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei was really excited to hear from Oklahoma RB coach DeMarco Murray.
Really, really excited.
Let's also not brush over the fact that Oregon played at Texas Tech at night with Tyler Shough in Week 2 and Texas Tech played at Texas with Behren Morton and had already clinched a bowl berth.
So it's a "common opponent" but not really.
