Is it just me ?
I feel like I am being ransomed by college sports?
I am almost to the point of saying F U to the entertainers that are handcuffing me into thinking I should pay for my loyalty to App, to the athletes, to the system.
The breaking point is coming.... the schools make millions, the advertisers make millions, and now the athletes want $100,000's...
I am vowing to never watch or follow the SEC for doing this to college sports !!!
F the SEC and all their schools.
I feel better now

That's what my mommy tells me.NattyBumppo'sRevenge wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 9:45 amYou got some real good smartsMrCraig wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 9:44 amAll that's true, but it doesn't jibe with the theory that all these guys are hitting the portal because they know Kerns is leaving. If App players were transferring because they knew Kerns was leaving, then he also knows he is leaving, so why would he continue recruiting for a team/school that he knows he isn't going to coach next year?AppStFan1 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 9:19 amI am not suggesting that he is likely to leave but until you sign a contract with your new employer and tell your current one that you are leaving it is smart to go about business as usual. I have heard cases where a coach was on the road recruiting and gets a call from agent that they have agreed to terms and just needs to sign a contract so they inform the recruit that they have just switched schools and want to recruit them there. Kerns would be crazy to stop recruiting for App and a deal fall through that puts him behind. Deals fall through all the time in this business.NattyBumppo'sRevenge wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 9:15 amI’d say that with Kerns offering juco’s recently, he is staying for now. If he was already out the door, seems he wouldn’t waste his time with that. Glad it’s been a few days and we still have Tate, Harcum, and X. That would be appealing to have an opportunity to start immediately as a big and have 3 veteran guards already on the roster.
To me, it's pointing towards those guys just wanting to see where else they can play. They want to play at a big school and might have the opportunity. I don't think it has anything to do with Kerns leaving.

But it was the SEC that blew it up first.t4pizza wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 1:03 pmWhile the SEC certainly has leveraged it's power to achieve greater access and payouts for their teams, we must not forget that the NIL originated in state legislatures and were signed into law by govenors. The first state to sign a NIL bill was California which is hardly a SEC state. Now, Florida did follow with it's own NIL rule that was implemented sooner than California but that was more in reaction to California than trying to be front runners. Living in Florida, I can say that it is doubtful the SEC had a real strong push in the legislature as Tallahassee is a Seminole town and the legislature is pretty evenly split. I am certain that all major brands in the State were pushing the legislature not to fall behind California.PhillyApp1 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 12:50 pmAppStFan1 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 12:24 pmIf Gillin believes that Kerns can bring a title next year then he absolutely should do it.

What if I told you sports were a distraction for the masses to avoid contemplating items that are important.
