There’s “getting in trouble” and there’s armed robbery. The pressure in that state led to no choice on Isheem. We were able to pick him up sort of UTR. Now that he’s proven himself, they or others can take him back.
Isheem Young enters transfer portal
- Thread starter Chipper
- Start date
Going to need to add a "buy-out" clause to scholarship offers... 
And in the short term, there's going to be a lot of kids that will earn good money. But in a decade when college sports are a shell of what they once were because only a handful of teams will be competitive, then we're going to be back to kids not being able to earn anything. Obviously, that's not Young's problem and this is still good for him. But we need to face the reality that CFB is now full on free agency without any sort of contracts. And I just don't see it surviving long. You can't have CFB with 20 teams.
Wow…
Looks like college football is dying faster than I thought.

It’s the fair thing for about 1% of athletes who produce more for the school than they get.
Then pretty much every other NIL athlete is just leaching off tax payers and alumni without whom they’d have the name recognition of minor league hockey players.
Until it kills enough interest at the have nots and the whole thing implodes.
Too bad we cant just destroy the NFL and college football for a 120 team four division system with relegation and promotion.
I see a lot of people who aren’t ostriches and a few who are.
It’s not being dramatic to astutely asses a situation. It can be delusional to ignore the realities.
The reality is some people will leave, others will join, and Iowa State football will continue.
Young isnt a freshmen anymore. Just pointing out a fact that that this generation doesnt appreciate what they have or are given.
I don't remember it all or how much the SSC Supremely Stupid Court had to do with this. Depressing thought but there likely is no way out of this w/o government intervention of some sort. Analize all you want, college sports will never be the same without help. Not really asking for 'same' but viable with a little bit of equity would be nice.
continue as a different new level of college football…after just tasting a sliver of success in an era with less hurdles
to act like NIl is business as usual is very irrational
You quit watching this football team after the WVU game? That’s really weird dude.
what’s legal isn’t necessarily good for the idea of massive popular college football in every state and region.
The entire thing (scholarship athletics) is irrational on face value…we just enjoy it.
This generation isn't the problem. Lack of rules and or regulation might be.
I oficially nominate this for a 2021 Clonie Worst Post of the Year award.
I think all the nominations might come out of here
The amount of money in all of this is a huge part. The NCAA could have seen this all coming. This isn't the players or Supreme Court fault, it's people that have made an insane amount of money off of athletes fault.
Campbell happens to get paid pretty decently, it has been a good trade for both sides.
Also quite notable that Freyler and McDonald played a LOT down the stretch of the season. Would be interested to see the snap counts with them vs King and Young. If Jordyn Morgan is the real deal (which by these transfers I assume he is) we will be just fine.
Freyler, McDonald and Morgan are a quality group.
Also locked down at CB with Johnson back, Purchase looking good and young guys like Tampa and Kyle waiting.
Wouldnt be crazy to guess Will McDonald comes back....
Just saying.

I don't think people have thought about what is going to level this all out in under 5 years. Once non-revenue sports(in particular female athletics) start the lawsuits the landscape will change FAST.
I have a feeling donations will go down because boosters will shift some of that money to players directly.
It's the fault of ADs for not advocating hard enough for football players.
