Re: F the NCAA

what does the agent gain by getting Zion to admit as much? If it's relevant to a suit now, wouldn't there potentially be some sort of paper trail at least mentioning some benefits in some context prior? and there are others named in the suit. It might just be a matter of time til other birds start ...

Re: F the NCAA

Giving them loans would be worse for the athlete than the current system. The proposed system would allow them to MAKE money based on their current market value. Taking out a loan would make them OWE money based on their projected market value. You guys don't see an issue with that? To be clear nob...

Re: F the NCAA

and what's the career prospects really look like for a Communications or African American studies degree? Probably not good so they may choose a different path if the system changes. To be clear you would have to allow people to earn money and take loans, just allowing them loans is pretty shitty b...

No, I meant it sounds similar to people taking out loans they can’t afford and that cannot be forgiven to pay for their degree in a low paying industry.

Re: F the NCAA

...but what if a player suffers a career-changing injury while still playing for free? Like most other loans you can’t repay, you declare bankruptcy or refinance. Hopefully nobody co-signed. It’s no worse than the current situation with college financing. Edit: you also better actually work towards...

Re: NCAA 20-21

The thing I remember about that 2012 is that for the most part it was a pretty competitive game, just every time it looked like Kansas had the slightest bit of momentum Doron Lamb would hit a shot and they could just never get over that hump. Effin’ Doron Lamb. I think we recruited that dude hard. ...

Re: This Should Be Good.....

So a lot of rumor stuff with Jordan but if David Griffin ( an owner spurned by LeBron ) 'CONFIRMS' that LeBron is the biggest asshole in history, it's fine.

Re: Transfer Market

Cheick needed four-out ball and to be the five, rim running and getting oops. Him and Silvio are similar in many ways but obviously Silvio accomplished more in one semester than Cheick did in one year.
