Carson Beck and Mark Richt both won a lot of games in Sanford Stadium with Georgia football.

Richt was the Bulldogs coach from 2001-15.

Beck was quarterback on the team from 2020-2024, the last two seasons as starter.

Soon after Richt was fired, he landed at Miami, his alma mater.

Beck’s season ended in the SEC championship win over Texas last December when he sustained a UCL injury to his right elbow that required surgery.

He pulled his name out of the NFL Draft and transferred to Miami, where he hit it big in NIL in what some believe is around $4 million.

Richt, now an ACC Network analyst, had jokes about that on Tuesday, July 22, when Beck made the rounds at ACC media days in Charlotte.

“You were at Georgia, went to Miami. I was at Georgia, went to Miami,” Richt said on the ACC Network set. “The only difference is you got paid more than I did.”

Beck smiled at that.

“I don’t know about that,” he said.

“If you go year by year, I think you got me by about a million,” Richt said.

Richt got an $800,000 raise after the 2014 season to bring his total pay to $4 million entering what turned out to be his final season in Athens. That made him the fifth-highest paid SEC coach at the time.

Georgia paid him a $4.1 million buyout after his time at Georgia ended and he was paid more than $4 million in his final year at Miami in 2018.

Beck spoke Tuesday about his departure from Georgia but it was unclear exactly how things went down.

Gunner Stockton helped Georgia rally to the SEC championship win. Beck came in on the last play and handed the ball off for the game-winning score.

Bryan Fischer of SI.com asked Beck if coach Kirby Smart said Georgia wanted him back in 2025.

“Yeah, absolutely, those conversations were had,” Beck said.

But he told Jacksonville radio station 1010XL when they asked him about fans moving on to Stockton, “I was at a school for five years and that’s kind of the route that they chose. It is what it is, but I’m here at Miami now. Excited to get started.”

Beck spoke highly of his time at Georgia on Tuesday.

“I’m just so appreciative and thankful of my time there at the University of Georgia,” Beck said on ESPN’s SportsCenter. “We were able to play in some of the biggest games imaginable, right? To win two national championships have two rings, play in SEC championships, things of that sort. …Being able to take all those different pieces and parts and ultimately bring it to this university and share it with the guys around me, I think will hopefully have a significant impact.”

Sun Belt reuniting with Louisiana Tech a ‘no-brainer’ in realignment age – Crescent City Sports

NEW ORLEANS – College football’s future is oligarchy.

Conference realignment, NIL and the transfer portal crush the little guy.

Entering its 25th season on the gridiron, the Sun Belt Conference should be Flat Stanley. And yet, it keeps frolicking forward.

The “Fun Belt” is bringing back the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs, no later than July 1, 2027. Tech is the latest in a series of additions this decade, including Southern Miss, James Madison, Old Dominion and Marshall.

After 13 seasons in Conference USA, Louisiana Tech will plug a gap soon to be left by the Texas State Bobcats. They’re departing for the Pac-12, a Frankenstein-ed version of its former self that will kick off in 2026.

With Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World” tuning up his optimism at Tuesday’s Sun Belt Football Media Day, conference commissioner Keith Gill instilled trust in Tech to continue a culture of growth in the face of chaos.

“The Sun Belt Conference foundation is built on schools with passionate fanbases, great football tradition, tradition of success in other sports, and proximity that creates regional rivalries,” Gill said in his opening statement. “Louisiana Tech allows us to be better in each of these areas.”

Gill noted that it’s an “open question” when the Bulldogs will officially become a member but that their return bodes extremely well for the Sun Belt’s future.

“It speaks to the strength of our conference,” Gill said. “It allows us to keep our momentum.”

Found almost immediately as Texas State’s replacement, Tech breathes new, logical life into the Group of Five. It has rich lineage with many current Sun Belt programs, and its football team is on a succinct upward trajectory.

Under coach Sonny Cumbie, the Bulldogs went 5-7 and snuck into a bowl game last season.

Led by Preseason Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year linebacker Kolbe Fields, Tech has sound defensive foundations and an aggressive team-building approach that fits well in the SBC.

Throughout a process of not wanting to rust, the SBC found Ruston.

“We started very broad and then ended up in a place where that just made a ton of sense and was a no-brainer,” Gill said.

Louisiana Tech annually taking on in-state foes significantly warps the Sun Belt’s outlook as a whole. Clashes with Louisiana-Lafayette, Louisiana-Monroe and Southern Miss will return to the highly competitive West division after hiatuses that ranged from brief to a quarter-century.

It’s been 25 years since UL Monroe’s played the school just 30 minutes down the road. Coach Bryant Vincinent is admirably rounding the Warhawks into form as the battle for I-20 looms.

“When I stepped foot on campus, the first day, I heard about LA Tech, the rivalry,” Vincent said. “If we’re going to really rebuild this program and get it to where it needs to be, we need to play LA Tech.

“Northeast Louisiana needs the LA Tech and ULM rivalry to come back. It’s going to bring back fans, it’s going to bring back energy, it’s going to bring back passion. We’ve got a lot of respect for the guys up north, the guys in Ruston, but I can tell you this, we’ll have a plan to wreck Tech too, because that’s what everybody wants.”

After winning the Sun Belt West with a 9-4 campaign, coach Michael Desormeaux’s Ragin’ Cajuns are ready to rekindle their flames up north. UL and LA Tech have not met since 2015, and the Cajuns have not defeated the Bulldogs since 1996.

Now, they’ll have a chance to reshape a Louisiana football ecosystem that better caters to local fans.

On a grander scale, it keeps the Fun Belt eternally entertaining on its rise to national prominence.

“That’s what our conference has done such a good job of,” Desormeaux said. “You’ve created all these regional divisions where the matchups matter to people … I don’t see any scenario where it’s not good for all of us.”

Auburn raids SEC foe for new assistant general manager

Auburn can’t recruit? Guess again. 

The Tigers are fortifying their personnel and recruiting staff at the onset of a critical year for Hugh Freeze, FootballScoop has learned. 

Sources for the past few days told FootballScoop that Auburn was pursuing Arkansas’s Jovon Hubbard for an upper-level off-the-field position within the Tigers’ football program.

Now, that deal is complete — with a signed contract, FootballScoop has learned. Hubbard is exiting his director of football personnel role in Sam Pittman’s Arkansas program to become the assistant general manager of Auburn football, where he will take on a key role in Freeze’s program and work underneath the well-regarded Will Redmond, a former FootballScoop Player Personnel Director of the Year.

It’s a reunion of sorts for Freeze and Hubbard, who previously worked together across three seasons at Liberty.

Hubbard additionally has some NFL chops on his resumè; he participated in NFL internship programs with both the Green Bay Packers and Atlanta Falcons. He had been a key member of Pittman’s Arkansas personnel organization for some two years.

The impending addition of Hubbard is a strong hire for Auburn, which has been scrutinized for its current very deliberate pace on the recruiting trail; the Tigers have 11 current commitments, according to 247Sports and including their highest-rated pledge, Jaquez Wilkes, who joined the class Monday. Four-star quarterback Peyton Falzone also committed less than a month ago, signaling some momentum on the trail for the program.

Additionally, in recent days, multiple sources told FootballScoop that Auburn isn’t done bolstering its personnel, recruiting and scouting staff; the Tigers have had in-depth conversations with a notable NFL executive this month, FootballScoop has learned.

The Tigers open their 2025 season Friday, Aug. 29, at Big 12 Conference member Baylor; they host a pair of Group of Five opponents the next two weeks before beginning SEC play Sept. 20 at Oklahoma.

UCLA transfer Kaedin Robinson files lawsuit against NCAA to play 2025

UCLA transfer Kaedin Robinson files lawsuit against NCAA to play 2025

Former Appalachian State wide receiver and UCLA transfer Kaedin Robinson has filed a lawsuit against the NCAA in the U.S. District Court of the Central District of California in an attempt to play the 2025-2026 season in Westwood.

The NCAA denied Robinson’s waiver to play for UCLA in March because he did not meet the criteria for an extension of his collegiate eligibility, having already exhausted it all, according to the NCAA.

In his 19-page complaint filed last Tuesday the receiver claimed that the NCAA penalized him for playing with the ASA Brooklyn Avengers, a junior college in New York, as well as facing “significant” disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Robinson further alleged that the NCAA’s decision severely limits his opportunities, and that the organization relied on an “unlawful” five-year eligibility rule that violated antitrust laws.

​​“The NCAA’s anticompetitive conduct, coupled with its unreasonable denial of Robinson’s meritorious request for a waiver, thus threatens him with immediate irreparable harm,” the lawsuit states.

Not only does the NCAA decision prevent him from playing his final collegiate season at UCLA – where he could be Nico Iamaleava’s top pass-catching target – it also prevents him from receiving the $450,000 Name, Image and Likeness contract that UCLA offered him.

Robinson’s lawsuit comes after former Vanderbilt quarterback – and past JUCO player at the New Mexico Military Institute – Diego Pavia was issued an extra year of eligibility following an injunction from a Tennessee federal judge in December.

Similar to Robinson, Pavia sued the NCAA in November, claiming that the body violated antitrust laws by not allowing him to earn compensation from the NIL and by counting his year at a junior college towards his overall NCAA eligibility. The body deemed him ineligible for an additional season in accordance with the Five-Year rule.

While the decision from Judge William Campbell is not a final ruling, it allows Pavia to compete until the case is resolved, throwing a cog in the NCAA’s decision-making process regarding Robinson and other JUCO athletes.

“Despite the obvious and immediate harm that Robinson will suffer if not granted the requested relief, the NCAA has refused to grant him a waiver of the Five-Year Rule (and thus also refused to grant him the Pavia Waiver, which is dependent on the waiver of the Five-Year Rule),” the lawsuit states. “The NCAA has done so confusingly and inconsistently – even though it granted the Pavia Waiver on a blanket basis for purposes of the Intercollegiate Competition Rule. This Court’s immediate intervention is needed to right this wrong.”

The NCAA’s Five-Year rule allows students four years of play in a five-year period. However, that five-year period starts on a student-athlete’s first day of classes at a “collegiate institution,” which includes junior colleges and other non-NCAA institutions.

This Five-Year rule has faced intense backlash and antitrust lawsuits from JUCO athletes, as it penalizes athletes who competed at schools that the National Junior College Athletic Association governs, where opportunities to earn compensation through NIL are limited.

The NCAA issued a blanket waiver for the 2025-2026 academic year in response to Pavia’s injunction, granting an extra year of eligibility to Pavia and other junior college athletes who would have otherwise exhausted their collegiate eligibility.

The inconsistency in application between Pavia’s case and Robinson’s has led to the lawsuit, where Robinson is seeking the restoration of his eligibility alongside the retrieval of compensatory and punitive damage payments as well as attorneys’ fees.

After his JUCO stint, Robinson spent a season at Central Florida, where he logged just one catch – a thirty-yard touchdown grab. He then spent the following three seasons at Appalachian State, boasting 14 touchdowns and amassing over 2,000 receiving yards.

Robinson initially came to Westwood with former Appalachian State quarterback Joey Aguilar, who was slotted in as the team’s new signal caller before Iamaleava transferred to UCLA.

The 6-foot-2 pass catcher had his best season to date in 2023, when he caught 67 catches for 905 yards and 10 touchdowns. He also earned an All-Sun Belt First Team selection in 2024, catching 53 passes for 840 yards before suffering a season-ending injury just nine games into the season.
