I think the idea of a new XFL is just a publicity stunt, can't imagine that they'll ever actually play a game.

I think they were initially serious about it, but now that AAF is actually playing football I too doubt it'll happen.

edit: although the idea of Hackenberg failing in another feeder league is tantalizing and I hope it happens

I want to see a football team that has Ryan Lindley and Christian Hackenberg on it.

I'm genuinely curious how any scout didn't see Hackenberg being a bust when it was so clear to me, my friends, and everyone on this board who watches college football.

Was it just ARM STRENGTH blindness?

Certainly seems that way. Going by the roster that's what it looked like and after week 1 it looks even more like that

That's always bullshit. Every single time anyone claims a throwing motion has been "fixed". It just doesn't happen

Hmm, are you sure that two weeks in May didn't fix the throwing motion they've had since they were 8 years old?

Thowing motion is such a red herring anyway. The main problem with all these giant white QB's is they're loving dumb as bricks and can't figure out where to put the ball in a reasonable amount of time.

I wondered about that when field goals started going past the net. Legion Field has an extremely wide walkway behind there; if I got a ball I'd haul rear end and try to get lost in the crowd.

(strategy possible not effective towards end of season)

If it doesn't it never will. Vince has dumped a gently caress load of money into this so I think it's happening even if it means putting John Cena and Roman Reigns on the field.

It seems like they both came to be about the same time but XFL needed another year to get things together for some reason.

Edit: XFL announced Jan of 2018, AAF announced March 2018.

Likely because they aren't supported by the NFL but equally likely that everything Vince touches is poison.
