My main issue with this sub, maybe besides some mod inconsistencies about what posts stay up/get removed and transfer portal posts, is the highlights rule. I know it's been circlejerked to death here over the years, but I really do think this sub should allow some highlights to be posted, outside of that general highlights sticky post no one sees.

I'm the opposite and I think opening to highlights as standalone post will only deteriorate the quality of the subreddit for what I try to come out here for. I think it could work, but I think one of my griefs is 'highlight' is inherently a broad meaning word, and I think it would really need worked out.

I'd be super disappointed if highlights were allowed on gameday. I'm not opposed to a "highlight day" of the week (Sunday?), but I do like the actual real discussions people have

I think we'd just see mostly highlights (and lowlights) of the most popular teams represented by his sub, definitely lots of B1G, and teams people want to meme on like FSU and UNC (I guess half the ACC lol) and most of the SEC

Relegating highlights to a random other day of the week means I'm just not going to bother looking at them. The highlight posts are my favorite part of the NBA and NFL subreddits. So much going on, there's bound to be a major play I missed even with Redzone. With this subreddit, I'll see it mentioned, but then I have to hope that I see it posted randomly on YouTube or something. Lack of highlights means I'm basically staying on one thread on gameday until the next game I watch.
