Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[lilesrt]

I have no idea what happened, but IMO, it’s sounds like an OD and/or suicide

Either one is a tragedy. I cannot imagine.

Legislature passes bill allowing college athletes to earn money

Bill set to be signed by Bill soon. Unless changed, begins 2022.

Then full ride athletic scholarships need to be done away with.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Who this?

PWO?

I have been saying this forever. It will be the death of major college athletics imo, or I should say the death of what has made them great to me.

I am a Vol, but I may start following more purely amateur Tennesse small college football and basketball teams. The Tennessee Volunteers will no longer exist the way they should to me.

Like I said earlier, if we’re gonna go down this path, let’s do away with it all and go to Club sports like Europe. I just don’t like how this will end up and everyone will be like “how did this happen”?

 

[SweetasSoda]

I know this is the other UT, but this sucks!! Sam, the former Texas QB, is his brother.

That's awful!

 

[tnhunter 10]

Graduate from Basic tomorrow.

Congrats. How are you posting while in basic?
Go to as many schools as possible. Air assault, recon long range school, just as many as possible.

 

[volatil]

I wasn’t making a political statement with the post. I’m saying kids who go to Georgia will lose 75% of endorsement money.


Don’t go to Georgia. Make more money in Tennessee.

With the NIL in the future, one must remember who will be the big payers and what have they done thru sponsorship of AAU basketball and football camps to direct talent to certain schools that use their products. This is done thru "Handlers" now and everyone knows it but will not openly talk about it on the NCAA level. Now when a player gets an agent instead of a "Handler" is he a Pro or a amateur ? This is what the beginning of the end of amateur sports as we have come to know it could look like. Its all about money in the end.

I agree with player compensation in collegiate sports. Players should be able to profit from their talents. It’s a sticky situation that will require much ironing out over the years.

I’m at the point where I agree
Players should be able to compensate off their names
The NCAA is a joke, they do treat the athletes like they own them making millions off of them and then rush to penalize them if they break the rules when the NCAA can’t even make up its corrupt mind on rules when it come to penalties

 

[SweetasSoda]

Y’all want to know how we can take over the East again?

75% to redistribute. Lol they just thought they were going to make money from their likeness. Redistribution of wealth. Wow

Got our phones for the night before graduation

Who this?

That's Nigel Lanier.

Yeah, no way this goes well.

 

[butchna]

Yeah it's just him trying to find the best guy possible for this offense.

Milton happens to have more potential than everyone else on the roster.

As far as we know...or don’t.

 

[pierce60]

Redistribution of wealth. Sounds familiar.

Haha from one of the most conservative governors in the country.....

 

[butchna]

And he fits the offense better.

He can run. Stronger arm. More potential.

More to quarterbacking than that. Most important is recognizing coverages, good decisions and accuracy. Lot of grip it and rip it types never went anywhere.

 

[pierce60]

Georgia is a blue state now so...

The governor is extremely red though...

 

[jave36]

I’m still confused as to how this will work. Can they sell autographs? Literally, big boosters could just pay big money and say it was for the autograph.

That's exactly what I was referencing. They'll have some guardrails to keep that specific scenario from happening, but you can't make enough rules to completely keep boosters from "legally" buying the services of players.

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

Who this?

No clue who this is but he fast tho lol

The guy throws some wild passes

 

[butchna]

Maybe Heupel corrects that. Will need to accomplish it quickly.

 

[jave36]

Then full ride athletic scholarships need to be done away with.

LOL what? That makes no sense. Because kids can now be paid actual money for their likenesses?

Like 10% MAYBE of P5 football players are good enough to get endorsements, and maybe 10% of those will make enough to pay for college. You going to take away scholarships of the other 99%?

 

[cHiZzLeVOL]

19K is the life for me

I mean…. I guess you will be viable in the next World War….

 

[VolGee4]

Bailey was the best QB on last years team and is the best QB on this team. He can run the fast paced offense and can get rid of the ball quick. He does not have a great arm, but he can make all the throws. I have no idea what Chaney, Weinke and Pruitt were doing last year. Maybe Bailey was sick. Looking back, Chaney was just cashing a check.

At some point, Bailey needed to play more last year. He would have provided hope. I did hear from the grandparents of a student manager that they were trying to help him with the playbook after a few weeks into the season. I got the impression that he just missed a whole lot of fall camp.

That's insane. There's no way that's constitutional.
