Shocked there isn’t a thread yet. Campbell had to lose it when he heard this.

I just wish it was uniform across all conferences. Otherwise, good change.

Someone nailed it in the KState thread: Matt would rather go to prison than provide actuate injury reports.

No way to actually regulate it without a central office IMO, so I doubt we get any actual info.

Campbell could be asking people to bring out their dead and he would announce them as day to day.

Everyone is 50\50. They'll play or they won't. Same odds for whether they are currently alive.

So what’s the penalty for lying? Wasn’t Tom Brady famously always on the injury report as probable or something? What’s to stop a coach from listing guys that are sorta hurt as game time decisions all season long? Utah essentially did that with Cam Rising all season with his “progression” even though they knew he wasn’t going to play.

I mean, we’re all day to day aren’t we?

Did the league at least get DraftKings to at lea$t sponsor this change?

Is there a non-sports betting reason for it? I can't think of one.

With the growth of sports betting, this was inevitable. Big12 was first in, I bet within a year the SEC, Big10 and ACC will follow suite.

All P4 will be doing it starting this year. Which, honestly, all that matters. Doesn’t really matter what the sunbelt does.

Big 10 has been doing since 2023 and SEC started last year.

It feels like we’re leading with the chin here. What’s the upside?

This is exactly what’s going to happen.

Less threads each week about if player x is practicing and/or will play?

People were still asking about Bacon in like week 9 last year.

These kinds of things are the things that made my high school track coach throw his clipboard on the ground.

They only require reports two hours before kickoff (what this accomplishes, I don't understand). Big 12 is doing this 3 days before kickoff. Way different IMO.
