I’m going to cross-link this here for those like Dave Naylor who might be buying into that “pro college football to pro in the UFL pipeline” and “younger players not coming to Canada because…” BULLSHIT that he trotted out a few months ago at the old place. He can now be joined perhaps by spring football fanboys.
As Naylor pandered is simply not reality in the US. The UFL 4.5 is farther away in profile from the CFL than since The Spring League in 2021 before the USFL 2.0 trash hub league was launched in 2022. EAT IT YOU EVIL WITCHY DAVE NAYLOR.
It’s up to the UFL 4.5 to shore things up here in 2026, or to basically become a higher-budget trash hub league to basically outshine the low standard of the USFL 2.0 via FOX in 2022 and all the pull of the NFL Godfather to promote it on such a high profile on free TV on weekends then on Fox and on NBC, at the expense then of viewers of other sports, despite being a trash hub league with largely empty stadiums back then.
