If
If Iowa State is on tv I will always watch no matter what level they are playing at
Jefferson NOT gone.

And that is the work around, the school is not contacting the kid, they are talking to his agent, and then the agent tells the kid what is going on. Much like schools looking to hire a new coach. A coach under contract cannot talk to another team without informing his current school, so they take offers from schools through an agent, and if interested, they go to the AD and ask permission to interview for the job.
Not sure how they are going to get the toothpaste back in the tube, but something Is going to have to be done. If it means making them employees and signing contracts that is what is going to have to been done. Can anyone image every player in the NFL or MLB being a free agent after every season? How much does Mahomes make if he can go to another team after the season, every year?
We’ve been having some of our best seasons in the last few years. Relax my friend.
NCAA settlement can’t come fast enough. Should cure a lot of this.
Lol, I got ripped for saying he would leave. Big offers are out there for him. This is the era we are in now with NIL
It hasn't been posting record ratings. The Sunday Elite 8 games were down 26% in viewership from '24. That's a huge amount. 9.5MM viewers compared to 12.8MM from a year ago.
Well those are gone now. We’ll be competitive with TJ here, but we are at too much of a disadvantage. We will look more like the first TJ team next year.
There are issues though - there’s no denying that. This tournament has had the least parity I’ve seen…maybe ever. And I was already disgusted, thinking about what has happened to Drake the last couple years, before this rumor.
Agree, I'm not sure why it would slow down, you can still get NIL on top of what the school pays you. Sure there might be restrictions but big schools will figure out a way. It might even get worse.
I'm saying I still watch because as of this moment I feel like ISU is able to compete somewhat in college athletics... but maybe I'm being too optimistic in that feeling? I feel like without the injuries our MBB team could have possibly made it to the Final Four with few breaks. The WBB was competitive, etc, etc.
But if we just continue to lose our best players... and eventually all that is left is the B1G and SEC... and everyone else is in a separate lower level league.... I will not be watching any of this crap. Guarantee you.
And I've watched less college football and basketball this year than any other year I can ever remember... and it has actually been pretty great.
I'm bouncing for ,3-400k if we're only paying him say 100k. Go Louisiana for a few months and play 30 basketball games for six figures? Where to I sign up? No more freezing my ass of in Iowa too? 3-400 k is life changing for most. You'd have to be a ******* moron to stay at ISU
The salary cap is $20.5M as soon as the district court settlement is approved with the exception of legitimate NIlL cleared through the clearinghouse.
The salary cap was never going to do much for ISU anyway. Just makes the Big 10 and SEC more balanced
Hearing he was offered just under 3M. We’re at just over 1M and he’s asked us to get to 2M.
Covid was my first real wake-up to there being so much more to do than sitting around watching college football and basketball. Every year with NIL it just keeps getting easier and easier. There’s better things to do with my time.
I'll be skeptical of how legitimate the clearing house will be until I see the results with my own eyes.
Honestly he should just leave and take the 3 mil. That’s life changing money and he would be set if he manages it right.
