When this went to basically a 15-16 week season and they didn’t put a moratorium on staff movement until after the CFP…

This is never an issue in the pros, but you could imagine how it would cause similar player discontent, feelings of abandonment, etc.

The NCAA allowed this free for all to start before Thanksgiving and had CLK choosing BETWEEN a clear promotion and an emotional run. Where he should never have to choose, the players should never have to deal with coaching changes after 11-1 and a GOAT season. But this is the beast they’ve created. Will they rein it in?

The coaches voted on the timing of the portal, NOT the NCAA

LK forced the "injury" rule and now he's leading this fight.

The NCAA is hot garbage and needs a complete overhaul.

All true, but will do nothing to alleviate "stepping stone complex".

There are under the delusion that Ole Miss is “equal” to LSU. Nothing will make them happy, aside from cold Zaxby’s chicken tenders in a tent with a chandelier.

100% correct but I won’t feel bad for players getting paid to play. If they were truly college athletes, yes but they are pros paid to play.
For the few not being paid, yeah it sucks.

The NCAA has to make the football calendar match the academic calendar, then align the portal and signing dates to that. Plain and simple

Yeah, you talking about fans that turned the 2023 game into a War Zone just because we took the lead. This is not going to end well. The Kiffin Family would be well advised to GTFO out of Oxford REALLY QUICK!!!
