  1. Players absolutely caused this mess. They agreed to a play football for a free education. Nobody forced them to sign a scholarship and play football. They can quit anytime. But don't say you're going to hold the school hostage for more.
  2. Yes, "players" created this. If he is party to not honoring his commitment to UNT, then yes, he is part of the problem.
  3. So is Frank Harris...
  4. No, the players created this NIL mess of a $ystem because of greed. They signed a scholarship for free education to play for a certain school. That was their compensation for agreeing to play. Then they got agents to become involved, then courts, now the mess.
  5. It's going to take a school suing a student for breaking a contract, either NIL or scholarship. Arkansas' NIL contracts have penalties for breaking them, and they are close to suing Nico's brother.
  6. It's out of control as is, and getting worse. Players already under NIL contracts are starting to test boundaries. Withholding practicing until re-negotiations happen. Accepting an NIL deal at a new school, practice, then accept another NIL deal at the previous school. The things that makes the NFL somewhat balanced (draft, salary cap, binding contracts) are things that will prevent college football from being balanced now and in the future. It's predicted (by Power program coaches) that even if player contracts happen and NIL regulated, that extra under-table payments will begin again.
  7. No, Benford had talent on the team, but he didn't know how to coach it. This coach has three consecutive 20-win seasons in DI. He can coach; it's now about finding the talent.
  8. Previous recent commit from the other forum...
  9. I'm linking another commit from the other forum...
  10. Do we continue the series in the PAC?
  11. He is odds favorite to go #1 in the Draft tonight. Taking a pay cut from Miami.
  12. Right now, 3+ continuous years as a player or fan gets you HOF consideration.
  13. Your dad is looking for you....
  14. A final settlement is close, but the issue about roster limits is pending... "U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken signaled she is ready to approve the rest of the settlement, commonly referred to as the House settlement after lead plaintiff Grant House, but wants both sides to come up with a way to not harm current athletes who will lose their spots on teams. The settlement calls for scholarship limits to be replaced by roster limits... The effect of the proposed roster limits would be to allow every athlete to be eligible for a scholarship while cutting the number of spots available... Roster limits could signal the end of the walk-on athlete in college sports....It is not clear how many roster spots across hundreds of schools will vanish under House, though it it is estimated to be in the thousands. Steven Molo, an attorney for a group of athletes objecting to the plan, told the judge that roster limits would unnecessarily restrict opportunities. He noted that football teams would be capped at 105 players. The average roster size in 2024 was 128." https://www.espn.com/college-sports/story/_/id/44823761/judge-delays-house-settlement-approval-roster-limits
