Look, it’s been a long day and I’d rather discuss puppies at this point. I guess what I’m missing is how the ability of teams to properly “value” players is relevant unless we’re talking about compensation, and if we’re taking about compensation in that context, aren’t we talking about players being overpaid?
So since transfer limits are not allowed, how far are we from having the 4 year eligibility thrown out? We could see a 40 year old JCL in the portal making more in NIL $ that he could with his 12 degrees….
They probably come from some puppy mill!
Of course some players are going to be over paid according to their value. Look at the public database of nba salaries. The goal is to avoid that. There's nothing wrong with saying you want Shannon to make more than Goode and you want leadership that makes that happen. I think we all want to avoid bad payouts. But they're bound to happen.
In fairness the one on the far left does not seem trustworthy.
Fair enough. I personally don't think that's all that far removed from the resource allocation decisions coaching staffs needed to make back in the old days (i.e. 'wasting a ride' on a guy who wasn't allowed to freely transfer, etc.) and it's not really my bag, but I guess I'm always in favor of Illinois maximizing their chances to win.
You may ship the bucket to my house.
You're right. This dynamic has always existed. But we've routinely coaxed guys out of their scholarship to go to another school. Try coaxing a five star bust out of his contract.
Guarantee he sticks around until he gets his final NIL payment for the year.
Another desperate team took a flyer on a player to come and be the guy to build a team with him as the star. Another team has found out he's not that guy.
Let's march toward 82 games a year in B1G!
According to his stats on espn.com he's missed 10 games this season. Does anyone know why?
court ruling allowing 2nd (or multiple) transfers to play
Because the NCAA blocked his elgibility to play due to it being his second transfer; however a federal judge issued a temporary restraining order barring the ncaa from requiring athletes to sit out a year after a second transfer saying it violated federal anti-trust laws. Therefore that made all the 2 time transferees immediately elgible and the courts also said the NCAA can't punish the athletes on the back-end if the final ruling is to the contrary.
He’s playing in Korea
IANAL and I haven't heard anything about this until reading this post right now. So does this mean players can transfer unlimited times?
