It will be interesting to see how these students do after college. After only staying a year in 3/4 years at all these different colleges, what happens in real life if after a while they tell their boss that I need more money or else I'm gone. I think most of us knows what will happen in most cases. You will have to be damm good for people to allow that. I just wonder if any of them actually think about that when they have to go out and make a living. I doubt it myself. But this is the world we live in today.

The Correctional system Rec leagues will be stronger than ever in 10-15 years is my best guess. Just throwing a lot of money at kids and allowing and even encouraging to switch every year is setting them up for failure in the future if they aren't playing professionally, which most won't. I would love to sit in on the job interview when they tell the former athlete they would pay him like $40-$50k per year to start and then the athlete starts laughing and says they wouldn't even get out of bed for that.

Actually thought the same thing this morning, when I saw the tiktok of some guy who details all of the LSU players cars... It would be a real mental slap in the face to go backwards, if things don't work out for them in the future.
