RB Jerome Bettis Jr follows in fathers steps and committed to Notre Dame
The 10 FBS conferences and Notre Dame finalized a new $1.3 billion television contract for the College Football Playoff with ESPN. The new contract is expected to pay the Big Ten and SEC 29% of the upcoming contract, sources told CBS Sports, which works out to approximately $22 million per school. The ACC will receive 17% ($13-14 million per school) and the Big 12 will sit around 15% ($12 million per school). The numbers represent a raise across the board as all Power Five institutions receive approximately $5 million per school in the previous contract. The Group of Five will split 9% of the contract, but the number may not be split evenly among the teams and five conferences. The independent schools will split 1%, while Notre Dame will get the bulk at around $12 million.
The NCAA Rules Committee expected to approve new rules on April 18th. In-helmet communication, 2-minute timeouts, tablet usage on sidelines (18), 15-yard horse-collar tackle penalties within the tackle box, uniform violations (loss of TO or penalty).

Penn State will be without the services of Defensive Tackle Alonzo Ford Jr, a transfer from ODU who is out for the season due to injury. Ford was expected to see time as a rotational player along the defensive line for the Nittany Lions.
Washington has suspended freshman defensive back Diesel Gordon indefinitely. When questioned about the issue Head Coach Kalen Deboer said the issues “were serious enough” to warrant a suspension and that he didn’t feel the freshman was being accountable. Gordon was a 3-star recruit from Texas and was expected to provide depth for the Huskies' defensive backfield this season.
There is speculation that Apple may try and purchase ESPN from Disney. Disney purchased ESPN for $19 billion in 1996. Expectations are that it would sell for 3 times that currently.
Will the Georgia Bulldogs three-peat?
