We Will Soon Tire of College Sports

[stevemcg]

Although Pope is a refreshing change for Kentucky fans, the ongoing debacle of the NIL and transfer portal in college will soon turn away the most devout of fans. Young mercenary kids with agents making millions for a 8 month stay at a college before turning around and doing it all over again at a new school for even more money. No team loyalty, nothing but money matters. Fans won’t put up with it for long. College sports are dying.

Bingo.

I’m already tired of it. I’m hoping that someone will step in and bring some sanity back to the game.

College sports dying? Probably so, there's more important things going on, but I do believe there is a fix. Just dont know what it is YET.

Seems to me, each and every recruit needs to be under an agreed contract for X amount of years. 1 or more years. Also, each team should have the same salary cap in each "division".

[stevemcg]

As for the transfer portal, athletes should only be allowed to transfer one time in their collegiate career.

So--if miami offered $9,500,000--for 3 years--required before entering nfl draft---he turned down $3,200,000/yr for 3 years--and expected the bigger deal from the gayturds.

If any of this is true--the world of college sports is about to collapse over the the cliff into the abyss of total muck, mire, shat and EVIL.

No way this can continue across the wide spectrum of college athletics.

It has already gotten out of hand. I'll hang around and watch UK this year to see what happens - I really hope Mark is successful, but what made college sports so much fun to watch is being obliterated. I remember having a discussion with a Tar Hole fan about Rex Chapman leaving early for the NBA. Told him I didn't like it and didn't agree with it. You sign up to play for a school you should stay 4 years at least and hopefully graduate. That for me was part of a long, slow decline in college sports that has culminated to where we are today. I don't like it and it makes it painful to watch at time. We shall see if the ship sinks or if it can be righted.

Agree Smyrnacat. The money has already destroyed the idea of amateur athletics. I personally don’t want to follow a sport where an 18 year old is making millions of dollars and a system where there is not an equal playing field for all programs. Money usually destroys ruins everything it touches and college basketball will soon be on a downward spiral and unlikely to recover.

[Katman]

It is what it is. Until we get our country fixed, sports are really low on the give a shit scale. I was hoping to have UK sports if our country survives in this next year or 2.

[stevemcg]

You’re right Katman. The country is in a profound collapse and sports is of little matter except as a pacifier to millions of restless Americans. Things are going to get so much worse we we forget why we ever followed sports to begin with.

My personal belief is we are seeing the death of the global oppression machine (Sadly, our country has been the MAIN "bad guys" due to Corruption, blackmail, Military Industrial Complex "making WAR a business", and pure evil as they have teamed up with Satanic forces.

America was/is called THE GREAT SATAN by many globally. I remember many years ago that I thought the people saying that were crazy. Turns out they knew the truth.

America must turn to God or face his wrath. This is Americas last chance and Trump is the Right Hand of God/ My take.

Pretty much agree with you 100% katman!
