College Football Enquirer Darian Mensah leaves Duke: How college sports continues to change + Swinney sounds off
Regardless of the time of year, the drama in college football never takes a break. One of the on-going stories that Andy Staples and Ross Dellenger have been following has finally come to a resolution. Darian Mensah and Duke have come to a settlement that allows Mensah to officially be in the portal and transfer to what is presumed to be Miami. Andy and Ross discuss how the sides finally came to a resolution and if athletes, much like the coaches, should have preexisting buyouts in their contracts. They also chat about some of the other notable court cases in college athletics as they share updates on Trinidad Chambliss and Charles Bediako's cases.
Then, they dive into the big news from over the weekend. During a press conference last Friday, Dabo Swinney called out Pete Golding for tampering. This all started when former Cal linebacker, Luke Ferelli, signed with Clemson and enrolled in classes. Just before the portal closed, however, he decided to re-enter the portal to sign with Ole Miss after Golding had directly reached out to Ferelli with lucrative NIL offers. The guys discuss if they think anything will happen from Swinney reporting this to the NCAA, and what Swinney's end goal may actually have been. Might a collective bargaining agreement with the players be just around the corner as administrators try to figure out how to police the wild world of college sports?
Later, Ross discusses a story he reported Tuesday morning. That story is about a potential rule change to targeting for next season. He explains that the way targeting is enforced is being reviewed and may be changed within the next couple of months. The guys discuss their thoughts on the potential shift and what the best way would be to enforce it.
