[Fan1978]

omar ballo ball isn't going to win a lot of games

He is with Reneau and Mgbako. reneau reminds me of Sanogo, great energy and fight.

Military time would just be 2020.

Which, if you think about it, is visionary.

This feels like the Hami Diallo recruitment but with Indiana playing UConn’s role in that one

Nah, IIRC there was some evidence that Hami was picking UK. I don’t remember the situation exactly but I remember watching his decision live expecting it to be UK.

That bozo friend of Ollie's stressed me out for a month over that recruitment

We need Mullins for the 4peat!

Young high schoolers being treated and paid like rock stars. So much for the student athlete. That concept is officially dead. College athletes are basically employees of the school now.

Sunny and 74 degrees tomorrow in Greenfield.
@Matrim55 , How does that forecast look to you ?

Wanna know something crazy? They've always been employees of the school. "Student athlete" was just a made up term to avoid paying workers' comp. And that's straight from the mouth of the guy who made it up.

"Collegiate amateurism is not a moral issue; it is an economic camouflage for monopoly practice." - Walter Byers, first executive director of the NCAA, repentant inventor of the phrase "student athlete."

 

[Mooch82]

He called it for UConn a week ago.

Trilly also just got Nik Khamenia wrong today. Gif’d UCLA and he committed to Duke. So he isn’t perfect.

No matter what he says about it, for many years the NLRB and others considered all students a separate category, and Congress went along. Student workers were excluded from paying taxes, they couldn’t unionize etc. The legal changes are recent and they’ve already forced colleges into eliminating student labor outside of sports. It’s a really weird world out there

“No matter what the guy who concocted the scheme says about it” is a wild way to frame a response.

They always were & glad they’re getting their piece of the pie without violating

Until I see him put on a Husky hat tomorrow, I’ll be anxious…

Anyone else think today was Wednesday and spend 20 minutes exceptionally confused?

The leprechaun is really struggling at ucla, will be fired at the end of year

When there's a lot of court decisions and caselaw behind it, I'd put a helluva lot more stock in that.

Surely you do too, no?

Let's face it. This was overturned on a wave of popular protest, the judge presiding over the main cases has blatantly said, "I don't understand any of the money." She has no clarity at all and has admitted it. Personally I think she's out of her depth, and I'm not surprised that the SC is just going along with it. The NLRB, the courts, all of these in the past, carved out a space for students because this was an antitrust issue.

I just want to know how he’s going to top Reibe. Does he throw a “mother” in there?

GOOD lol.. Hami had this board in SHAMBLES.. I mean he did take us along for a ride but still.. I ain’t gonna be mad at all if we do that to IU.. that’s what happens when it’s a blue blood recruitment

What always bothered me about HD was how he always hung out with the team playing pickup games etc. It seems like he used the team for free practice.

Another non productive work day now I am going to be checking every 20min for a sign from Trilly Donovan

As it should be for the back to back champs.
