Why would any coach develop a player only to have them be bought out the next season by another team?The future of college bowl games. Good teams lose key players to the portal and then look terrible. There has to be changes to the portal rules.
Tulane's 3000 yd QB did not play in the game, already transferred to Duke.
Nah. Too harsh.The legend Jon Sumrall...largely overexaggerated.
Florida completely turning around their season and program under Napier is impressive though.
in fairness, the turnaround is due to 3-4 players, mostly true freshman. I'd contend the turnaround is due to NIL and not sunbelt billy. JMO.The legend Jon Sumrall...largely overexaggerated.

This would probably be collusion in violation of antitrust statutes. It would benefit member institutions and limit the freedom of movement of players. NCAA athletes do not have a collective bargaining agreement like the NFL.in fairness, the turnaround is due to 3-4 players, mostly true freshman.

But I liked Ware's comment at the end ... if a player transfers, then they lose a year of eligibility. Simple solution. Two ways that could be implemented. First, as it used to be and second, say a player transfers after he plays in 24, he plays in 25 and has one more year remaining. If he transfers again, then he is out. So basically one "freebie" transfer. Now if he redshirts in 24 and transfers, then he comes in as a sophomore. If he transfers again, he is a final year junior. I know people will hate that, but I like it ... maybe would stop this insanity. The current system is worse than the pros because every player is a FA every single year. At least the pros can sign contracts for a few years.
If so, then it is worse than a semi-pro league.This would probably be collusion in violation of antitrust statutes. It would benefit member institutions and limit the freedom of movement of players. NCAA athletes do not have a collective bargaining agreement like the NFL.
That’s never going to happen. It would 100% go against the court ruling.in fairness, the turnaround is due to 3-4 players, mostly true freshman. I'd contend the turnaround is due to NIL and not sunbelt billy. JMO.

I wish Sumrall had gotten the UNC job. Would like to see him prove it at P5 level
Like I said, it is no better than a semi-pro league then. Schools should use 2 or 3 year contracts for NIL.That’s never going to happen. It would 100% go against the court ruling.
