What? Didn't we all gain the freshman 65?

Players aren't required to find a new school by the portal deadline. That's just the deadline for submitting your name to be entered.

Most people are making fun of the ones panicking over stupid shit (Washington, acting like Texas is doing worse than the rest of the country by far). Nobody has disagreed that the OL is a complete clusterfuck.

We're not. Hope that helps. Holy shit. Yes, you are quite alone in your thoughts that Sarkisian screwed up the OL this year. Very insightful, a true thought leader around here.

I have to admit, I had no idea how bitchmade @crash_davis was before today's vaginal discharge all over this thread.

I typically prefer complete CBA control but as noted a college athletics environment has issues there because of the guaranteed short career length. Limited anti-trust exemption could work but good luck on that being worked out well in our lifetimes.

True, but at least that gets it hung up in court for a while. Ha. Really it's a disaster until they admit the players are employees and open the doors to collective bargaining.

You mean athletes who are part of collective bargaining agreements?

Correct that's why I mentioned the NCAA (the schools agreeing as a requirement of membership) would need rules that say if you're found liable for tortious interference you pay $X to the other school on each count and that player is ineligible to ever appear for your school.

The 1 year contracts and Demond Williams situation are two totally different issues. Regarding 1 year contracts, there's nothing that can be done in the current framework and I'm not convinced there should be anything done. They're adult Americans and should be free to move just like anyone else. It sucks that we all have nostalgia for when they were restricted laborers but that's what it was. What can be done is schools signing multi-year rev share contracts with players, but then the schools have to risk signing a bust to multiple seasons. Which relates to Williams. Now that schools can directly pay players as part of revenue sharing, that is how that situation should be regulated. If he signed a revenue sharing agreement with Washington for the 2026 college football season in exchange for playing there then he should be locked in by signed contract and whoever tampered him into the portal should be sued for tortious interference. From there the NCAA can have teeth (ha). Let's say it's LSU. Washington sues LSU for tortious interference and wins. Then the NCAA can use that verdict and the evidence from the case to punish LSU, make Williams ineligible to play for LSU, etc. Washington only directly gets damages (plus punitive) but the NCAA could require interfering schools to pay 10x any damages in a future rule set.

If he goes to Indiana it's a Cignetti move. If he goes to Texas he's an Indiana castoff reject. Read the room.

I'm not saying it isn't a miss that we couldn't get any of 3 of our big targets away from their school (Brown, Baugh even having his position coach, Guarnera) and I've been as loud as anyone about the terrible job Flood has done (and when he combines with Harris then portal OL business becomes a cluster). But damn some of y'all act stupid around here every time something you thought was going to happen doesn't happen.

Texas's without question. Why the fuck would we want a class where so much is allocated to a QB who would just back up here? This isn't as snarky an answer as you think, it's pointing out that when you let your emotions take over you start asking stupid questions you think are brilliant, like whether Texas fans would prefer the class with or without millions of dollars allocated to a mid QB.
