2021 NCAA Football (Non KU)

Pretty glad to see Bama come up short

Seems rare

Especially considering whatever black magic deal with the devil Saban made to get that kinda success otherwise

So last night I thought I saw the espn ticker say “7 Bama players so far entering transfer portal, including some all-sec dood”

Is that normal? For some big exodus like the morning after a season-ending game?

Bunch of 5 stars. Specifically underclassmen who realize it’s just different there and they didn’t play at all.

It's probably the new normal.

I'm being dead serious by asking this.
Will there be any kid's PARENT/S that now think it wasn't a great idea for their kid to sign with Michigan?
Buncha assholes.

I just read that the Texas A&M-affiliated NIL-arm(s) doled out $30 million to their 2022 recruiting class alone. I wonder how long before the NCAA tries to institute an NIL cap...and how long before the bigger conferences/schools leave the NCAA and start their own "league".

Yep.
Don't worry about it.

an Offensive Lineman just got 7 figures at Oregon.

no big deal. I, for one, feel so much better about this clean, totally non life changing money.

Yknow...the same opportunities that ALL students have....I mean who didnt get 7 figure deals in college? pshhh...I always felt bad for the athletes in my time as a student while I was rolling in my Scrooge McDuck swimming pool.

Looks like Oregon and several other schools are already under investigation...my guess is this is exactly why KU hoops players keep their shit relatively quiet since we already have heat from the FBI scandal.

Hopefully the NCAA can get the pay for play under control.

Oregon is also 1 of 22 schools paying athletes for good grades it appears...

I dislike Saban as much as anyone, but he speaks 100% truth on the NIL issues.
