I think he is more worried about chasing a former gymnastics star.

Then explain what his exact point is relative to the post. Do you think that Lane is against the portal?
Yes, but just because he doesn’t like it, doesn’t mean that he won’t use it to his advantage. The two are not mutually exclusive.

Why is that?

Their biggest issue was selectively enforcing their own rules but there is no reason or logic to suggest being more amicable would have done anything other than create the same chaos, only sooner.

Yeah I guess we are just going to have to disagree. I think Lane likes the fact that he has the portal at his disposal.

They decided to go with the all or nothing approach for something they were destined to lose in court and cost them multi billion dollars and they’re still fighting in court - which they sort of have to now due to previous strategy.

Your assumption is that people would have been happy with the inch they were given and not want to take a mile. The last several years should tell you the opposite is true.

Perhaps they would have had to given up a mile, but at least they’d have some say in the process. Fighting NIL for as long as they did showed their intent. The conclusion was inevitable.

The portal ought to stipulate that the player must show progress towards graduation. So many credits per year measures timeline progression. This could reinstall the notion that a player is also an academic student.
A player cannot transfer to another D1 school unless they earned enough credits to move up from the first year to the second, second to third, third to fourth, fourth to fifth, and fifth to sixth. After the sixth, eligibility extends via medical circumstances.

Man, you were fearless in this thread showing how dense you are. I hope for your sake you were trolling.

Nobody has really given a specific answer except for the guy that said he thinks Lane is against the idea of the transfer portal, which I just don’t quite agree with.

So you think he wants to get rid of the portal?
No, I think he would like they way it works changed.

I agree. In what ways do you think he would have it changed that would have an effect on the post he was responding to?
