2023 Mutual Fund

Here's how the Mutual Fund works: Invest 1 or 2 shares in the Fund at $50.00 per share( maximum of 2 shares per person). I'm able to invest up to 22 shares, but, my total shares contribution will be determined by how many people sign up. Yes, I will put my money where my mouth is! I do the handicapping work. I make the picks. I determine what units will be invested in each pick. Unit plays will fall into 4 possibilities: 1-unit; 1/2-unit; 1/4-unit and 1/5-unit. (A 1-unit play represents my strongest play). The most you can lose is the value of your share(s). Either 50.00 or 100.00. You cannot lose more. How much can you win? I make no guarantees, but, I'll work my ass off to have a successful year. If I'm blessed to have a good year, I will deduct 20% of each share's profits as payment for my work. My goal is to have picks announced prior to the start of games, but, that is not a guarantee. Sometimes I'm handicapping games right up until the start times. The picks will be given out within minutes of the game(s) starting, with the lines and units on each play. My goal is to start the Mutual Fund on September 28th, but, i reserve the option of starting it one week later. The Mutual Fund ends with the Army vs.Navy game, the unofficial end of the regular season. Payment shares will come soon after. Mutual Fund status will be updated every Tuesday of the regular season, once the fund officially starts. It should be a lot of fun and I tried to make the risk very small. If you sign up, I hope you enjoy it. Email me at sam@college-edge.com if you have any questions. You can make payment right here, at this site via PayPal or call 267-918-1064 if you'd like to arrange another mode of payment or, if you have any questions.

And, coach of FSU's Seminoles...Jimbo Fisher? A fan's, handicapper's,(and gambler's) musings on college football(and other stuff).

It will be extremely unusual not seeing Bobby Bowden on the sidelines for FSU, not to mention the absence of Mickey Andrews on the defensive side of the ball. I have always felt coaches like Bowden and Paterno have the right to decide when they will leave. Bowden wasn't given that choice, so, Jimbo Fisher now gets to prove FSU's hierarchy was right. We will get a chance to see if this new trend of announcing a successor while the successor is on staff will work in this instance. Normally, a team with a new coach goes through the growing pains of a new system. That won't happen here. And, coach Fisher is really lucky to have a tremendous nucleus of starters back on offense, including QB Ponder, 4.8 starters back on the O-Line, including a 1st AA leader at LG Hudson, the top 7 RBs back from last year, and a serviceable, if not spectacular, receiving corps.
The defense is the question mark, but, one thing that hasn't changed is the outstanding recruits who will populate that defense, and that's why that defense could still rebound from last year's poor performance. The new blood at defensive coordinator will also be a probable positive. They get an experienced Mark Stoops at that post, who has been a defensive coordinator at Arizona the last 6 years(just wondering why Mark left his brother's staff in Wildcat country).
I think FSU makes a nice comeback this year. The Oklahoma game on Sept. 11 will not make,or break the Seminoles, but, it may give us an indication of how good FSU will be this year.
I think FSU will be a good buy in over the total situations. I think their offense will be that good. So, what do you think: should coaches in the Bowden, Paterno category have the right to choose the time of their leaving?
