Are now happy what we’ve been left with. Many claimed the kids deserved it. An education means nothing I guess. It’s all about $$$$ and getting to the league. We need a minor league farm system akin to baseball.

I'm pretty happy. We are left with good talent and good coaches, and all the players that want another opportunity have a chance to look for it. Hope they all find a good landing spot.

bank accounts can buy whatever they want? Do you realize what's happening? It seems not.
And these poor kids are just being sucked in- definitely not their fault.

Imagine the stupidity it takes to compare being a privileged athlete to being a slave. Black men and women literally fought to be able to play white sports and then some morons compare it to slavery.

I think the NCAA should do their best to inform players of stats regarding transferring and the likelihood of finding a landing spot. After that, if a player chooses to give up a scholarship to pursue something else, that's on him.

NIL on its own, the way the NCAA washed their hands of any attempt at regulation

of it, would have been bad on its own. But, combine it with basically free transfers, and you have the nonsustainable present we are living in.
When I say unsustainable, I mean, even the Big Money Collectives are going to quickly tire of the greed that 18-19 year old kids are showing. The system will soon evolve into a pay for RESULTS, not simply pay for PLAY.

I am pretty happy with it. Not sure why it bothers anyone. Clemson will run down the hill next year and I will be there cheering. No matter who is on the team or isn’t.

witnessing exactly what I feared when both the NIL and portal issues arose: a wildly unmanaged run for the money resulting in large numbers of schools, kids and fans thrown into disarray.
While I have placed most of the fault on the NCAA, the schools themselves failed to unite early on to force the NCAA's hands.
What do I believe will happen? Congress will get involved, one way or the other, and look out!
