I haven't and probably won't make the leap to consider college players getting NIL deals to be the same as professional athletes. That's probably the biggest difference here. Let me know when they aren't required to go to even a throwaway class or maintain a GPA of any type and then we'll...
Maybe I'm going deeper...but I guess I view them as two entirely different things at this point.
I don't think either one is really sustainable, especially since the MLB draft sometimes doesn't draft those 17 year olds whereas the 17 year old high school football kids will still get the bag...
See this is the problem I have with the statement. If the baseball kid skips college, he's at the professional levels.
It's just not the same - the structure, the economics, the sports themselves - I'm not sure they're even roughly equitable.
wtf is "ledged"?
I don't think the NCAA will get involved with the Weiss stuff so long as there is an active lawsuit or investigation from outside parties going on.
I don't know if there's really a direct comparison. The economics of both sports are entirely different not to mention the rules for eligibility surrounding them.
In baseball, if you want you can skip college entirely, get paid and go to short season rookie ball the moment you graduate high...
@Premierdrum posted about it on 11W earlier today. It's true.
And what's even better is the Morons and dipshits up north aren't paying attention, because MGoPravda or any of their other propaganda sources aren't putting anything out about it. I don't have a subscription to the The Fart so...
Well...look at what happened 3 years later in 2008. In a lot of ways the world economy still hasn't totally recovered from that mess despite the COVID shock and aftermath to that. Politicians aren't totally to blame but they definitely share in it.
AI is awesome for summaries...
Student loans became more difficult to discharge in bankruptcy starting in 1978 with the passage of the Bankruptcy Reform Act.
Here's a breakdown of the key changes over time:
Before 1976: Student loans were generally dischargeable in bankruptcy like other...
What 11 said - TCUN is having to offer up so much in NIL right now it's not prudent or logical to even bother trying to keep up. Look at the storm clouds around that program - no matter what the NCAA ends up doing to them, they are deficit spending just to get people.
The recruiting is fine -...
Fix the scheme last year and it's not close. Day has admitted to not putting his team in the best position to win in that scenario and, irony of ironies, it catapulted them to a national title.
2021-2023 doesn't count in my IMO. You can't factor out the level of cheating, especially when the...
