Decision day : 4-Star Center Back to Choose Between Miami or Georgia
The day of the blue-chip cornerback’s choice Chris Ewald
For Hollywood (Fla.) Chaminade-Madonna, today is decision day Chris Ewald is a four-star prep cornerback. The 6-foot, 165-pound player will make a decision on Thursday on his future: attending Georgia or staying at home to play for Miami.
Following the conclusion of his last formal visit with the Dawgs of the summer, InsideTheU ascertained that the Broward County native was caught in a “deadlock” between the two programs. In this case, Georgia has a lot going for it.
A long-standing friendship with defensive backs coach Donte Williams and defensive backs coach Travis Robinson, together with the fact that the Bulldogs haven’t recruited a cornerback this cycle, make this a very enticing opportunity to join a nationally ranked school.
College football bowl projections: playoff selections and preseason forecasts for 2024
All bowl games this season, including the enlarged College Football Playoff, have their early pairings announced.
This fall is going to be exciting as the sport’s bowl schedule takes a significant shift, with the College Football Playoff expansion here ahead of the 2024 season along with numerous adjustments throughout the top leagues. With fall camp starting in a few weeks, we’ve revised our summer bowl projections for every game in front of various media days next month.
Unless there are contractual requirements, bowl tie-ins are subject to major modification at ESPN’s discretion. For example, even though the Pac-12 is no longer in existence, six teams—the Holiday, Alamo, Vegas, Los Angeles, Sun, and Independence—will remain affiliated through the 2025 season. Anticipate that such tie-ins will stick around even when the league disbands and teams head to the Big Ten, ACC, and Big 12 in turn. If Washington State and Oregon State reach the six-win mark together with the teams who departed the Pac-12 to join other leagues, they will both be eligible for Pac-12 bowls.
According to Brett McMurphy of The Action Network, the Alamo Bowl’s desire to play Texas or Oklahoma, two teams headed to the SEC, in its 2024 or 2025 games was turned down, despite a number of college football bowl season tie-ins being finalized before of the 2024 season. Representatives from Alamo Bowl suggested the Longhorns or Sooners as potential successors for the now-canceled Pac-12 tie-in, but it wouldn’t work out financially.
However, making projections at this time of year is always entertaining, so let’s get started:
