Over the last year in college football, the landscape has altered to a new terrain which hasn’t been seen before. Teams are abandoning rivalries and traditions, swapping leagues at the drop of a hat. Also, players are using the transfer portal as a trampoline to bounce them from one...
Every year as a college football fan, it’s exciting but sometimes challenging to try and pinpoint who the next breakout star is going to be. Some guys inherently blow up since the starter in front of them departed for the NFL. That door doesn’t always open so easily though,...
