INSIDE LINEBACKER

Shaun Dolac, Buffalo. A former walk-on from the Lance Leipold days, Dolac was second nationally in tackles in 2022 before missing most of last season with injury. He has not missed a beat. In Saturday's 23-20 upset of Northern Illinois, he was almost literally everywhere: He made 19 tackles (15 solo) with 4.5 TFLs, a pass breakup and a 53-yard interception return as NIU was driving to take the lead midway through the fourth quarter.

It's rare to find a tackling-machine linebacker who is also one of the best defensive playmakers in the sport. Dolac checks both of those boxes and then some.

Future NFL player! I think he’s too good for even the CS to stop.

College Football can't seem to help itself as it continues it's march towards one big super conference, treating the other conferences as less than. BSPN is not doubt playing a role with the broadcast money (BSPN is also very much the reason for the transfer portal/NIL and all the issues). Geographic conferences are dead, the pool of teams with the ability to compete in the playoff will also be restricted no doubt.

I just read that Chez Mellusi is stepping away from Wisconsin due to nagging injuries. The article mentioned he may seek another year of eligibility (I think he’s in his 5th or 6th year now). Anyways, they mentioned Yac and the other guy will fill the void. Go Cade.....

So this magic negro is a five star plus recruit?! Why don’t they just add stars for these guys. Like 6, 7 or 8 stars so the DWFs can get extra aroused….

At least he's 6'4! When you are magic and actually built like a quarterback, that's gotta be worth a bonus :rolleyes:

I don't think my Michigan fandom can endure a 'Bryce Underwood era' brought to you by Dave Portnoy.

Portnoy is a real DJF. Willing to pony up his own shekels to get the great black hope to Ann Arbor. Good I say. A fool and his money are soon parted…

10 or so years ago I would visit Barstool sports but quickly lost interest in the site. Now it's just a bunch of middle aged White goys with their chosenite company president Portnoy being degenerate gamblers.
