Transfers and de-commits

[awd4cy]

I remember all the people on here praising this NIL stuff. In 10 years, college football is over as we know it. ISU is out on an island with this new conference and now the NIL, this is bad for the little guy.

Yep, yet so many delusional people think we can survive in the new Big 12 like nothing will happen.

Hey - the sport will be ruined in 5 years at this pace but at least the student-athletes had mobility and ability to earn a wage for that time.

 

[awd4cy]

I care more about college athletes being treated well and being allowed to transfer if they want to. I'm going to assume Iowa State athletics will be fine until proven otherwise. I think football is starting to go the route the basketball went 10 years ago. We'll lose players every year to the transfer portal, but pick up a bunch too. Right now we're seeing the losses.

Yes, we will get larger programs scraps of players kicked off or ones that didn’t pan out.

This is why I assume we will not get the OU TE. He will get $$$ elsewhere. Uphill battle for us.

Hope I'm wrong as usual.

Or a booster gives an NIL deal that includes paying tution/room and board so the transfer walks on

Yeah, they can. I don't see boosters putting up much money for players that never see the field long term. I could be wrong though.

Are Alabama boosters going to pay good money for 30-40 walk-ons that never play? There is still a limited number of players that will see the field. Maybe they will, but I have my doubts.

Yep, I'm sure it's 100% the fault of NIL and not the ease with which someone can transfer and be eligible.

Some of you have lost your minds.

You can go to Texas and make $50K a year, ya that's just great for all but the top 15 schools.

So glad I booked this trip…jk sort of. Still will cheer my a** off for our guys.

I liked the idea of the NIL in terms of getting NCAA football games back, as well as them being able to do things like sell their autograph. But there being no type of rules or regulations, and literally being able to pay players to attend a certain school is where it gets out of hand.

 

[Nococy]

NIL should be for shirt and poster sales only. Also players should only be immediately eligible if their coach leaves or is let go. Plus if they follow their coach they must sit a year. If these rules don’t change quickly college sports will be ruined quickly

This may be a worse game than against Notre Dame two years ago.

Yea, but if you allow 1, how do you govern 2?

Why do you think it would even out?

If it is NIL related, which it may not be now, but it will be in the future, the talent flow will be unilateral. Some schools will be able to offer more in NIL than Iowa St's annual scholarship.

It may not be completely but it is highly coincidental to say the least. Without a coaching change have you seen this many at ISU? I can't remember? Is it not also a bit odd these non 5 star players don't want to be part of a "5 star culture" anymore?

Make the bleeding stop!

plus the players should get a stipend of say $1000 a month

 

[Rabbuk]

Tax returns? The same way any person making money is.

 

[PSYclone22]

If we get transfers in from other programs are we assuming they're coming here for the culture or to play for a winning program or because we have boosters that will pay more than Toledo or Coastal Carolina?

 

[WhoISthis]

Yeah, they can. I don't see boosters putting up much money for players that never see the field long term. I could be wrong though.

Yes, they will. Easily.

There are boosters funding millions in salaries and facilities. Buying a better roster is way cheaper and better.

29 states have laws in place that basically prescribe a hands-off NIL free-for-all. Good luck getting those laws changed.

More details in a post I made here.

Why doesn't ISU have more donors? It's an Ag School. Where are all the multi-millionaire farmers with ties to ISU? Please don't respond with ANF-GO HAWKS! What percentage of our enrollment is ag? Probably less than 15%. Why is this an excuse? Ag has been on a roll for 15 years. What about...
