    I still think deferred payment and/or going back to sitting out a year would cut most of it out.
    I don't need my name in the marquee lights....

    Yeah, for instance, if a kid bails cause he was brainwashed and misled about getting a "Natty" but in reality
    all he got was 7th place in a basketball conference and a trip to the Chuckie Cheese Bowl"..........well then, someone "stole" him.
    CD, that's Tater logic

A free farm system. The NFL can snap their fingers and end this if they want. Draft eligible 18 year olds. And most of this ends. Then, college football would be played by, drumroll, college students.
    My least favorite solution because it degrades the product on the field which I’m not a fan of doing. In my opinion Brian Kelly was on to something the other day. The schools should pay them a portion of the tv earning then make them play contracts. Take the power 5 and create one regional league that operates it all. No conferences they can be the regional divisions.

    First and foremost the calendar needs to be fixed. Way too much going on in December.

    Sitting out a year isn’t going to fly in the courts I do not believe. Hence the current injunction until the spring. You can transfer as much as you want, there isn’t a limit.

    Probably referring to the Bell kid that fleeced y’all for 800k this year. 3 catches for 30 some odd yards on the season. Couldn’t get his head right to play in the state championship game. Maybe he knew what was gonna happen and didn’t want to get swept up in the concussion protocol. Smart kid.

    Dropping like flies. Or lit up by freshmen on defense. Or planted in the turf so hard by XT that his jersey number is permanently engraved in it. Or embarrassed by the worst FG kicker in D1 ball. He knew then 2 was coming.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    Auburn and Colorado showed what a high ranking portal class will get ya; all talent, no team. 22 narcissist lookin’ to get theirs but not willing to take a hit for the greater good if it means their number doesn’t get called. I kind of admire Coach Swinney for holding out hope that there may still be some kids/people who will play for something bigger than themselves. He's mostly wrong but I admire him for remaining hopeful.

    I’m not an NFL guy but if the 49’rs are on I like watching Debo. He doesn’t care what he’s doing as long as it helps the team win. As close to a true selfless player as I’ve ever seen.

    It’s non existent in college these days. I’d love to be proven wrong.

    No, I was referring to the taking of Ostarine is stealing,.......stealing from your opponents, your fellow competitors, and from the fans, who want a fair competition.
    And what's really disturbing is their fans condoning it as long as they win.

    Not even really comparable to the largest steroid scandal in the history of college football circa 1980. Google Steve Courson.
    I guess the doctor just got the equestrian and football meds mixed up.
