Shilo: “And please make number 21 available” Shedeur: “That’s Denzel Ward. He’s the franchise player. That’s long gone” Shilo: “Never mind. 28 will do”
Shilo Sanders was rage-baiting his brother Shedeur about being the starting QB of the Browns all day and even started praying that Shedeur could get him on the team 🤣🏈🙏

I don’t know how it will be reflected in the ratings, but the NFL Black Friday game feels very secondary to this college football slate.

Stay open and curious, and question your own assumptions. That’s how you unlock hidden wisdom and grow beyond just bossing people around or forcing control.

College football is so much better with personalities like Lane.
Lane Kiffin on Mississippi State: "We just try to play clean football. We try to execute and play really good football. For a whole sideline to try to fight and leave their whole sideline, including their athletic director, I've never seen anything like it... we're not trying to

Via Mark Schlabach just now on #SECThisMorning. Ole Miss pushing to have an answer by at least Saturday morning. Says he believes that Florida is not likely in the running any more and probably down to LSU and staying at Ole Miss

In pure economic accounting terms, the H-1B program (especially the India → U.S. flow) functions as a massive indirect subsidy from Indian taxpayers and families to the U.S. economy. How the H-1B Visa Program Benefits the United States The H-1B visa allows U.S. companies

Lane Kiffin is probably going to take so much shit when he inevitably takes the LSU job this weekend, but unless you think he should have to stay at Ole Miss forever, I actually think he's handled all of this very well. It's not his fault the college football calendar sucks.

The Browns totally punting on the offensive side of the ball this season probably cost them a division title.

So I guess the meme about the refs being in the tank for the Chiefs is over.

The start of the Lions game getting bumped back to 1 p.m. has really messed with what time it’s socially acceptable to begin drinking.

People on national TV have been touting this narrative nearly every day since August. A reporter finally had the opportunity to ask Shedeur for his perspective on it and did. This was good journalism.
A reporter actually asked Shedeur Sanders about people claiming Kevin Stefanski has been sabotaging him. "You just wanna start trouble, huh?" Good for Shedeur for immediately dismissing the question. It’s unreal that someone would ask him something like that as he’s preparing

This is the report about Jimmy Haslam being ready to “clean house” that’s floating around today for some reason. https://t.co/6BflD2RIM9

I think Sayin is great value right now. Voters aren't going to hold it against him that he didn't have big numbers in blowout wins over UCLA and Rutgers. If Ohio State beats Michigan and Indiana, I think it's Sayin's.
NEW: Fernando Mendoza now has a 50% chance to win the Heisman Trophy on Kalshi. Can Julian Sayin or Jeremiyah Love catch him?

I'm still pumped for the game and the rivalry will always mean something to me. But I don't think you're going to see any Ohio State fans crashing out if they lose, knowing they'll still have just as good a shot of going back-to-back.

I've been pro-playoff and pro-playoff expansion. But I think it'd be tough to argue that Ohio State-Michigan has the same hype this week that it has in previous years.

I’m not saying the answer is Shedeur. The wheels could very well come off this week. I’m saying they wasted this defense by spending 1/3 of the season with a quarterback who has yet to show the ability to make NFL throws.
@BenAxelrod Starting Shadeur early would not be wasting the defense? The entire QB plan wasted the defense.

My non-Shedeur Browns takeaway from this week is that they wasted a Super Bowl-caliber defense because they had to justify over-drafting Dillon Gabriel.

If Jordon actually goes through with the lawsuit and it somehow makes it to trial, I plan on covering it from the courthouse every day like Dominick Dunne during the OJ trial.
Hi Jordon: Any idea why your screenshot looks like this after you adjust the exposure and highlights? (@JohnnyBlan57495, who provided the below video, was asking about Adobe Photoshop.) Thanks, Pablo

The OHSAA has voted to allow NIL, per a source. This vote stems from Jamier Brown's lawsuit. Ohio high school athletes can now receive NIL money.
NEWS: Jamier Brown, the country’s No. 2 prospect in Class of '27, is the centerpiece of a lawsuit filed in Ohio seeking injunctive relief to be able to benefit from his NIL while in high school. Ohio is one of six states that prohibit high school NIL.
