The Rainbow Warriors Are ready to play some D-1 College Ball.

The Rainbow Warriors will get to wage war on the football field come late July. Large part in thanks to the NCAA College Football Oversight Committee.

Dennis Dodd of CBS reported, "The committee recommended that coaches begin interacting with players on July 13 with training camp starting on Aug. 7. Those dates will each be pushed up a week for the handful of teams competing in Week 0."

Now the current season is expected to end December 5th but the NCAA rules committee could allow the season to end in the middle of January, instead of playing a shortened season.

Currently the NCAA has a six games being listed to kick off on August 29th. Most importantly when Hawaii hosts Arizona. 

Not that it matters to Rainbow Warrior fans due to NCAA rules on bowl games by conference but the national championship game is set to be played on January 11th, 2021.

The September 19th, game where Hawaii goes Duck hunting in Oregon is back on. That will be the Rainbow Warriors real chance to show the NCAA why the warriors from Hawaii deserve to be allowed a real opportunity to finally start competing for a playoff birth. For now Warriors we're on to Arizona.

Ranking the NCAA QBs after the 2019 season, Pre decloration.

I have little Idea at the moment who is making themselves eligible for the 2020 NFL draft. I did a top 25 non offensive line , offense ranking on who I thought would be good fits in New England. After the season I compiled a list of Quarterbacks and took the few remaining from my pre 2019 season list and compiled and ranked 40 quarterbacks who I think will be good. Since I am a Patriots fan I rated where I thought Jarrett Stidham would be. Stidham on my list coming out of college would be 21.5 out of 40. Perry from Navy is too talented to leave off this list, and earned it more for his legs, than Arm.

Some of My Criteria is 2 years of starting or a previous year with near 200 attempts. Quarterbacks had to have a decent competition percentage in 2019, with exception to like 3 players who were added after the list was compiled because they were on my pre 2019 top 25. Remember stats don't tell everything, so my list might not be statistically the way others rank their boards. I like to think my ranking is more analytical. There are people on the list that are or will be considered busts. For me Joe Burrow had a good 2019 but looks like a future bust.

1) J. Hurts OLK
2) J. Burrow LSU
