Well, in fairness, he didn't really have a choice about the continuity.

He does have a choice about the next season's continuity though

Best site for secondary market college football tickets? StubHub, SeatGeek, etc.

LBCougar

10:48am

I'd go with the one that is in cahoots with the school. Like BYU and SeatGeek

I agree. I'm pretty sure Seat Geek is in cahoots with the whole Big 12.

KYUnation3

Not hard. He's making a lot of money playing at a college bball blue blood

I keep harping on this, but I'd be very interested to know what CC is thinking.

gangbusters

10:47am

He considers himself a top tier player

JoeExotic

I certainly admire that. I wonder if he figured there'd be a lot of guys coming

Decent shot after one year of playing 6 minutes a game that he transfers back to BYU anyway.

TCuz

He’s a Pope guy. He trusts him. I don’t blame him. Seems like a good option.

VACougMD

10:47am

I bet he plays 25+ minutes np. Pope and Jax trust each other. I'm sure Pope
