JJ: "Hey Mom. Just got offered 3 mil by _________ Iowa State is nowhere near this number."
Any advice?"
Duh.........

 

[cal-cyclone]

We did just get a preferred walk on. Is thst was $200k gets you? I kid, I kid.

maybe a bench player will take 200k now? I don't know much about these numbers. This is all so depressing and completely slowly chips away at people's enthusiasm for college basketball.

I ******* blame all of you who asked for this NIL ********, including huge fanboy of this system Chris Williams.

Blame the Supreme Court. If you really want to have a debate about why we are here you just as well take this to the cave. It's politics. Everything is politics.

Need to draw up binding contracts with these players going forward. Break the contract, get sued. Simple as that. This is now professional sports and we can't afford to try to find a replacement player this late in portal season.

dimmer? Translate, please, for we old duffers.

I'm guessing donors

Guys where are you hearing this? LSU fan sites don't have a peep about this. If it's, "a done deal" and people know about it here, they'd know about it at LSU.

Only thing I can find is some "cymark" down there asking.
As many transfers as they're bringing in right now, seems like they'd have something going on.

But, smoke, fire, who knows, it's all over, there's still a chance, stuff.

Exactly, “college players should get paid” really? They already get tuition, food, clothing, housing paid for the 4 years of being here. That’s what’s called a “student athlete”

Players come and players go, I’d dip for 3 mil too.

Hope it's wrong but if it's true then what's the point in being a fan? No other sport on the planet operates this way. Just make them employees already and get them on contract. Why don't we want them to be employees exactly? Everything's already fckd up beyond recognition might as well go all the way.

I guess not being in the portal means nothing. Right NCAA?

 

[Tpups21]

I knew at the time that meant nothing.

Wasn’t it a 9-0 ruling. Probably means it really wasn’t politics.

I 100% plan to go fishing tomorrow but that doesn't mean it will happen.

Meh, I would have been good at peaking in my 20s with those numbers, then get a normal job you enjoy till you retire comfortably in your 50s or early 60s.

You may have been but I would say you would have been in the minority.

slowly???

It's all my fault, I just couldn't make myself donate 20 bucks this year.

"My productivity at work makes millions for my employer, that's why I'm happy to make $15/hr."

 

[isuno1fan]

Wait until you hear the "loyalty* b.s. from some people on here. I went to the grocery store today and spent 200$ on basically nothing, and people criticize young kids for leaving to make millions. Some people live in some kind of complacent "la La Land".

Try Aldi

I'm was never suggesting it was "left vs right" politics but it's politics. We live in a capitalistic society. And one that supports astronomically fewer regulations and rules than say 40-50 years ago

We need to wait for T Hines or Petersen to tweet, since they love this kind of ISU news
