As long as they are hydrating eye masks I am in favor of this. Some of these NFL players are in desperate need of a skincare routine.

Out of 74,000 NCAA football players 250 are drafted; out of 19,000 NCAAM Basketball players 60 get drafted. There are 1,500 NCAA gymnasts, 20 went to the 2024 Olympics, so the gymnastics equivalent of "going pro." Percentage wise the amount of athletes going pro in any sport is ridiculously low.

A bunch with first place votes. Crazy that Missouri got 2 first place votes.
They are still good, but not sure if they have the same fire power as last year's 3rd place finish.
Celestine and Moore will be hard to replace for their multiple events and losing Titarsolej and Hu is going to hurt as those were a sure 9.9+ every time out.

I love your thumbs down emoji.. Ha ha! Whatever that is for? 250 football players are drafted each year... I think there were 3 US collegiate gymnast in the 2024 Olympics.. I think you are missing the point here... but it doesn't matter because you are just trying to find something to pick out that you want to so badly point out.. which i don't even understand.

The argument that there is no "next level" after NCAA (despite stats here showing that the next level for football players is basically so gate-held as to be considered unattainable) so therefore they should do easy routines to not get injured (??) is antithetical to the idea of competitive sport. That's where the thumbs downs are coming from. Happy to keep 'em coming on my end.

Nobody said to do easy routines... what ncaa gymnasts are you watching that are doing easy routines? However using an analogy for us to make football and basketball more entertaining and less boring since they don't ever change it up or make them push the entertainment value is...thanks Richard keep em' coming...
