Hold him accountable of a signed contract.

That contract doesn't bind him to Washington as a student. He can withdraw today and enroll at LSU.

Contrary to popular belief these are still student-athletes, they are not employees of an institution.

[quote]Lawsuit is coming. You now have kids with an NIL deal bailing for something else. It is pretty simple. You sign, you play. No second-guessing once signed.

It is like a coaching contract. If a school wants another school's coach there is a buyout that has to be paid. This isn't brain surgery, and these kids are most assuredly not brain surgeons. Most of these kids probably cannot legitimately academically qualify for a University[/quote] Academics was kicked to the curb with the wide-open portal years ago. We never hear about any "academic casualties" relative to a player's eligibility at game time. No one's getting benched because he didn't pass a class.

But on the other hand it’s non-stop roster management/retention management/salary management, etc.

---

I'd think most programs have a GM with an entire department in the AD tasked with roster management. There's no way the coaching staff can maneuver this along with their actual job of "coaching" a team.

I don’t disagree with some of what you’re saying but it is funny to me that all this doom and gloom is happening after a SEC title game appearance and a quarterfinal playoff appearance

---

Proof that "down years" for some programs are not the same as other programs. I consider this a down year for Bama, we need immediate upgrades in the trenches with a new oline coach, special teams needs addressing in the offseason. Take care of the oline and the run game will improve. I HATE not having a running game worth a damn.

Black cowboys have been around longer than we think.

Yep, they were amongst the original cowboys in this country.

China also owns 25% of Hilton.

I'd wager Indian's own +50%. A ton of Patel's owning hotels, gas stations, liquor stores, etc.

SFP will never take an actual position. He only wants to poke holes in other people’s so he can feel superior when he gets called out and can act like he’s the only reasonable person around. That and derailing threads when he’s just “asking questions”

---

The only way he is successful in derailing threads is because others constantly engage in discussion with him. Every thread he is allowed to sidetrack and pollute with his posts. :rolleyes:

Worst loss was Bama, that shite was embarrassing.

Best win Ole Miss, also most entertaining. That was a great game and Ole Miss came to play ball. I’m pulling for the Rebs to win it all.

STOP allowing the shite stirrer to stir his shite through every thread. :banghead:
