Society is rarely lazier than when it come time to evaluate Group of Five teams and talent. Preseason G5 conference predictions from supposed experts like Fox Sports are notoriously terrible. But this bullshit watch list from the Dodd Trophy folks is especially wretched in its naked lethargy.
Listen, nobody is disputing Tom Herman's inclusion on any list of outstanding college football coaches. Great work, Tom! But the Dodd Trophy Watch List isn't celebrating Herman's magical season with the Houston Cougars or his (remotely attainable) potential for finally cracking the heavily unbalanced College Football Playoffs.
