I just want Breece to know how disappointed in him I am!Waking up and immediately running to the internet to start a thread where you know your bad takes are going to get **** on is an interesting way to start the day.

It's the new culture of college football much like college basketball with transfers/early entree etc. so the choice is deal with it or find something else to do.
How is entitlement aligned with hanging it up a game early? Or even 3 games early?Where does your slippery slope end then? Guys are so entitled these days I could see players hanging it up 3 games into the season and riding the gravy train of free tuition and NIL the rest of the year while their teammates ate busting their arses for nothing.

Entitlement is paying for tickets or donating money and somehow thinking you have earned the right to tell a young adult how they should make their decisions.
Breece Hall played 36 games for Iowa State. He practiced and trained countless times more. He worked with his family and the coaching staff and likely NFL advisors to understand the pros and cons of playing in yesterday's game and decided the best thing for him to do is to sit so he can avoid injury.
And then to condescendingly say the other players are playing for nothing on top of that?
Entitled. These players are entitled? What a joke.
Back in my day I was glad to be at an ISU football game........and miffed by halftime it was all but over. And do it over and over and over. Finding something else to do was never an option. That was the "culture" of ISU football. Happy and mad. As an ISU fan this "new culture" doesn't change that. I'm thrilled ISU is in a position to be in these games.....yet a little miffed that outside of injury...... ISU's best team wasn't on the field. It isn't an either/or.
JFC, the regular season ended almost a month ago. The combine is only 2 months away. Potentially throwing a month of recovery away on a bowl game is not worth it for these guys. If Hall goes out and sprains his ankle and loses 4 to 6 weeks of training in a 2 month time span before the combine that is enormous for these guys. People are so ******* dense on this subject.Why not quit earlier in the season if you're worried about getting injured? We had no shot at a conference title prior to the Oklahoma game.
I think your concussion is Exhibit 'A'.You can tear a knee preparing for the combine. There is value to the program in hearing David Montgomery from ISU on Sundays but let's not forget the games that lead to that outcome.
I guess we should only practice in bubble wrap.
I'm not disagreeing about the combine situation. I advocated that he should have quit earlier.JFC, the regular season ended almost a month ago. The combine is only 2 months away.

Absolutely entitled, it was a general statement about college athletes in 2021 not a specific comment about Iowa State. It's only in the last few years where this culture of transfers and sitting out bowl games, now they think they need to be paid with the NIL has started to run rampant.Entitled. These players are entitled? What a joke
Put the shovel down.Absolutely entitled, it was a general statement about college athletes in 2021 not a specific comment about Iowa State.

Its actually a microcosm of society in general that will continue to get worse.

Your comments are the exact same kind as slave drivers during emancipation. "what's next?! They ask to vote?! They ar so entitled!"Absolutely entitled, it was a general statement about college athletes in 2021 not a specific comment about Iowa State.

Protecting their pro career is putting themselves above the team.
Donate your entire salary to ISU Athletics. Or do you put your family's best interest over the Cyclones?
Well I'm glad hypothetical you would be more "honorable"???? than Breece Hall lmaoI didn't make a commitment to the athletic department so that wil not be happening. However if I had made the commitment but thought about spending the last payment on my family I would still fulfill my commitment to the athletic department.
