Kansas Crimson

The prevailing argument will be bUT thERE wErE aLwaYs DeScREPaNCieS but things like this ( that will only continue to grow ) just crush the chances of smaller schools winning a recruiting battle. It’s not just boosters funneling into collectives, it’s branded events that invite only the big names.

Like if there was a four game tournament in the MLB that only included the Yankees, Astros, Dodgers and Mets.

It’s great ( I guess if you like your Hunter Dickinsons ) for Kansas bc they’ll have no issues getting into games like these.

How about the prevailing argument that maybe the biggest difference is just that now this shit is no longer under the table

If and when the schools start paying directly what will happen with Title IX?

u digg?

yea? they had 2 Million dollar in season tournaments before? Was 2pa...oh sorry. .was Birdie there?

this shit is out of hand and is quickly trending toward killing TDub as a fan, its spiraling and I'm drifting further and further away.

I'm trying, dont celebrate my departure yet, I won't go easily, not after 40+ years of love, but boy this stuff sure makes me feel like I shouldn't give a shit. Money, it's all that matters, I guess..

If I had that approach to life, I'm guessing my life would be richer in some ways and much much poorer in others.

this whole thing is depressing to me.

diatribe over, carry on

Just curious if they are trying to copycat the NBA.

We'll see how this shakes out when HCBS says "So I’m...ummm...saying to myself...ummm...maybe this doesn’t...ummm...work anymore."

YES!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure at least half will go to actual players. The rest? Administrative expenses.

The collective thing is temporary. It will be the fax machine or pager of this transition.

I hate to admit it, especially here, but I think Cal is a great college coach.
