Miami is actually more aged than Indiana here
It’s amazing how little effort people take to find truth anymore besides just parroting stupid media buzz points

Completely ignoring ages and the entire rest of the roster lol. Jesus dude I knew you were dishonest but that’s low and pathetic even for you.
Posted on 1/17/26 at 10:45 am to TheePalmetto
Yeh dude. The age of the 3rd string TE that never sees the field totally would explain why Indiana is winning

Per usual, you completely miss the point because it invalidates your entire misguided view.
Would it help if I put it in a spreadsheet for you? Maybe in crayon too?

I showed the average age of players of all the semi final teams

Indiana 23.2
Oregon 22.3
Miami 22.6
Ole miss 22
I then broke down the average experience in years of all the starters of Indiana and Miami

How is that not exactly the context needed when discussing ages of college football teams?
Please, do make a spreadsheet to support your claim all these other teams are all made up of 18-20 year olds

1. You cited no source. 2. You cherry picked 4 teams. Where are the rest of the playoff teams? What about all of P4?
quote:

This is just a lie. You picked how many years they have been out of high school and ignored age and amount of playing experience. So again, you cherry picked. Not to mention ignoring again, all the other playoff teams and P4 teams.
You’re a very DISHONEST little man. It’s why no respects you or listens to you, even in insignificant spaces such as a sports message board.

And yet here you are providing zero data or anything to support a damn thing you have said
Posted on 1/17/26 at 11:43 am to lsupride87
47 of their 85 scholarship players are between 22 and 25. They are literally one of the oldest rosters in the history of college football.
ETA: there are only 140 nfl players that are 21-22 years old.
They have 13 7th year players. 13! They have 13 guys on their roster that started playing college football the same year Jayden Daniels did.
They have several guys on their roster born BEFORE 9/11 happened.

Show us the other teams in the playoffs and how they are 18-20 year olds as you said

No. You made the initial claim, now back it up. I know I’m right. You know I’m right, even in that delusional mind of yours. Prove your claim or frick off. What’s it going to be spreadsheet boy?

14 hours before I came into this thread
Pause I have actually put data to support what I am saying

Did you bother to look at the post I responded to with that post at all or did you pop your ignorant little mouth off yet again without context?
Don’t bother replying, I already know the answer.

that's like saying the NFL draft is meaningless and teams should only build through free agency. it will prove to be far more cost effective building the roster mostly through high school vs spending millions in the portal every year.
NFL draft picks sign binding contracts. Every HS recruit you bring in has a foot out the door every offseason.

Thank you

Cigs is simply about this:
Production > Potential
So if you have a finite amount of money to spend on a roster, it’s going to be a lot easier paying guys who’ve done it at the college level rather than unproven HS players.
And anyone citing age as a negative is just being an ignorant hater. Nobody was stopping Brian Kelly, Lane Kiffin, or anyone else from using the same strategy.
It’s very Moneyball like when it comes to scouting and Cigs is Billy Beane. Eventually everyone else will start emulating it which will kill traditional HS recruiting

It’s not.

Because only starters play, right?

Would you like to put a single thing together, at all, that shows Indiana has an age advantage over other top teams.
Go ahead. The floor is yours to put one single data point out there with context on Indianas age being an outlier vs the other top team
Because I have produced multiple actual facts that go against that
Show us something by production on the field that highlights their age being an outlier. Do it. DO IT!!!
So far you have “well yeh their starters aren’t really older but just trust me there is a ton of production that doesn’t start that’s way older. TRUST ME!!”
