Dirt & Sprague

Pac-12 commissioner George Kliavkoff is asking the college football world to stop, and take a moment to reflect on what exactly is happening in its world, right now. Texas and Oklahoma are bound to leave the Big-12 for the greener (money pun) pastures of the SEC. The college football playoff is expected to expand to 12 teams in the following years. The convergence of these two moments, he says, presents a problem.

The Trail Blazers went into Thursday night’s draft with no selections, and not many assets to swing for an all-star that could help push the team past complacent mediocrity. Our two picks went to the Rockets last season in exchange for Robert Covington (Which can be argued as good, or bad… Depending on what kind of fan you are). So, instead of using some of the capitol you already have on the roster (i.e. CJ McCollum), general manager Neil Olshey just threw his hands up, and took a flyer on an athlete.
