It’s not ruining college football. It already has. We just haven’t gotten to the bottom yet. You’ll see
Word had it Nico was contacted by a few schools. I think if he had entered the transfer portal last night thier would be a different tone today.

Well if you leave your job for another one you do lose things. You lose seniority maybe vacation time, maybe you have to move to another city (like college players) there are cons to swapping jobs there should be cons to a recruit signing with a school then transferring to that schools inter conference opponents a year later. That’s life, there’s pros and cons to things. Why should this be an exception?
You're just making up things now that you want to see. They have no basis in reality

There's no exception, the court ruled that limiting these things was illegal. The exception was what they did previously

We just disagree and that’s fine.

But we all know everyone taking their big, principled stance on VN are still going to time in next season. They're just mad these hard working and talented kids make more money than they do
My issue has never been with how much they make. Players should be paid their value

It’s called a Non compete clause

Players should be paid their value even if it is 7 figures. I just don’t think you should be able to transfer in conference and be eligible immediately
I agree that it makes roster planning a nightmare, but it’s not a matter of conference or NCAA rules. The courts have ruled that there can be no barriers to transfers.

I know the rules and I know I just have to get over it I’m just implying what I think should happen. I donate to spyre every month, the athletes 100% should get paid

So they should get a free education while billions are being made by others? Sorry but the laws of this country rightfully disagree with you.

Lots of pro athletes make more than their coaches. Should that be changed as well?
Actually, what you’re describing is a lot like socialism. Although I’m sure you’ll argue otherwise. Workers in every factory/organization in america make much less than the owners that built/run the business. Rightfully so, they built the organization that allows the employees to be there.

College football has turned that mold upside down. Without the university, there is no football, there is no brand for these kids to use to get to the NFL. Neyland stadium was there long before they arrived and will be there long after they are in the dirt, yet here we are throwing millions at them like someone behind them wouldn’t step up into their shoes.

He will argue otherwise because that’s what he does. He can argue about everything and offer a reasonable solution to nothing.

As college football player you wouldn’t without a logo on the side of your head.
Here's Bru's siding commercial. Not in Neyland, not in official UT uniform.

It was court who ruled in favor of athletes and their ability to make money off their Name/Image/Likeness (that schools and NCAA was exploiting). Also court ruled players are free to transfer. Both cases of fundamental human rights.
Sorry your game got ruined (not sure how) because athletes got their basic rights

Players had rights long before this crap happened.........it was getting a free education at a great university COLLEGE FOOTBALL is NOT the NFL. NFL has many more rules with $ made and when they can get out of a CONTRACT and move on ..........college doesn't
