Every once in a while a mlb player in the last game of the season will try and play a different position each inning.

Watch some football player try to play 12 games, one game for 12 different teams in a season.

Rip to the portal??


Hopefully so, it’s destroying college football. Players getting paid is one thing, even though a little common sense wouldn’t hurt on that end. The “Portal” and what it allows was never good for college football, although it’s hard to hate on the athletes that won’t make it in the NFL that take advantage of it.

Hopefully this is voided, and no $ was actually shared yet.

They could always do that. What NCAA, conferences, and teams added were requirements and rules on eligibility for playing sports at this schools. Organizations set rules for eligibility, safety, limits on amount of hours teams can practice, when seasons take place, playoffs, and so on. It’s very common.

Yeah, no matter how bad things in this country get I seriously doubt that anybody will ever be sent to federal prison for not wearing their Burreaux jersey on gameday.

I said all of this when they allowed instant replay. “Oh, you’re an idiot, it’s good for the game”. Well look where it got us. Nobody cares about the slippery slope until they’re laying at the bottom of the hill covered in piss and blood.

Courts are getting all these cases wrong. Rules to protect the competitive integrity of a sport are not in violation of anti-trust laws. That level of absurdity by the courts would be extended to saying the draft violates the law by not allowing one team access to a player at the same time as another team. These judges are morons.

The schools already do that for athletes.

If the university presidents had any balls, they'd get together and decide no more scholarships for those athletes who just want to jump ship. Want to play ball at our school? Great.

Enroll, use your NIL to pay your own tuition, room & board, and start showing up at practice.

Will never happen, though.

I mean at this point, who’s going to be the first school to just say “frick it” and make the NCAA enforce that their athletes even have to be full time enrolled at their University?

No one has answered the question yet of how this happens in practice. The eligibility rules to play haven’t changed. How are you going to be enrolled full time and academically eligible at a new school if you unenroll from your current school in October?

The biggest issue is that you can just judge shop basically. Which is also what has occurred. Don't like a rule find a judge that agrees with you

The biggest issue is the NCAA stood a top the table for decades and told every body else to pound sound and didn’t act when all this shite was right in front of their face

Are the reports that UW refused to put his name in the portal accurate or is that just BS?

Nevermind. I see they refused based on him signing the revenue sharing agreement. Truly the Wild West right now.

I don’t see where any eligibility requirements changed so you’d still have to be full time and academically eligible. I don’t think that’s possible with minimester classes


5th year players are almost never full time students, so this was never true. They routinely take 1 class just to be enrolled as a student and play ball.

How many 5th year players play enough for this to matter?

Will Wisconsin's NIL sue for breech of contract?

Xavier Lucas signed a two year contract with their NIL. His attorneys say the deal wasn't official since the Dept. of Education didn't sign off to the House agreement.
