I’m all for landing some HS talent but is Ware a “primi donna“ for caring about making the league? The “good old days” are long gone and I don’t get why players that want to play at the highest level, and make cash, are characterized so negatively.
If we don't get him, everyone should ask for their NIL money back
- Thread starter Cavanagh
- Start date
I love much/most of Gallos game but for us to have a higher ceiling he would be great as a 20 minute a game 6th man (kind of like the junior Sheehey role). He does a lot of positive things, which is why I’d still like him to play 20 minutes, but in today’s game getting 26% from three and 53% from the FT, from your 2G, is not optimal.
We need to upgrade the 1 and 2.
Add Terence Edward Jones from James Madison to the list…..he entered portal and put name in draft
Bud Mackey finally with the progam? Oh wait...
Are you changing your mind on NIL for next season?
Personally, Id rank them so far like this of importance:
1- Perkins
2- Tyson
3- Dia
4- Tucker
5- Hickman
Someone pointed out Malik Mack is Gtown/Md bound? Those five would be a home run in the portal. Right?
No, I’m not giving a dime. But a bunch of people have already donated and the chest is full.
if they want to get paid let them get an agent and make their own deals. the universities should not be involved.
Yes, more red tape that no amount of oversight would be able to prevent. As we are witnessing. The University is still making boat loads of money off these kids so there is a lot at stake for them to be involved. NIL is a critical part of the recruiting process so iit just creates black market where slime ball coaches use loopholes to get around the rule. Whereas the good guys basically get punished. The university has to balance investment in sports in order to maximize their overall return which helps the education portion of the university. They can't have it both ways.
One of the portal sites says JaKobi Gillespie is probably going to Maryland., fwiw.
They will be at some point. If the athletes get their way. Profit sharing. From some of the reports they will try to/use title IX. May I ask why you think universities shouldn’t be involved? This will end up ugly if they don’t do anything as we have seen with the NCAA ignoring it.
Profit sharing?
Does that mean that athletes in sports that don't turn a profit will have to pay the school?
No, it means all those sports will be eliminated to pay for the salaries in Bball, Fball and Hockey.Profit sharing?
Does that mean that athletes in sports that don't turn a profit will have to pay the school?
Hockey is generally the 3rd highest revenue sport in schools that have a D1 program. Seven B1G schools do (counting Notre Dame). I wish IU would build an ice arena and add a hockey program. Assembly Hall was originally designed for ice but RMK would not allow it (so I've heard).
Where does it end? My grandsons play little league sports. They charge 10 bucks to get in. Shouldn't they be getting a cut of that action? Many high school games are televised. How about that?
It ends with either congress granting the NCAA immunity from bullshit lawsuits or the elimination of collegiate athletics.
They charge parents to watch little league?!?!? That’s wild.
God yes. I spend $75-100 bucks a week to watch my step kids play various AAU events at the Fishers Fieldhouse alone. That doesn't include the other 3-4 venues in the rotation.
It's becoming a thing. Parents pay fees to have their kids play and then pay again to watch the games.
Youth sports groups have expenses. Use of facilities, uniforms, equipment, tournament entry fees etc. all have to be covered. But it does feel like nickle and dime stuff sometimes. I say just include it in the fees up front.
The argument is that grandparents, friends, etc. come to the games and if they pay something then the fees the parents pay to the club can be reduced or offset.

A lot of people denigrate the NCAA but now since they've been pretty much rendered powerless we see the results. Chaos. A complete free for all.
As soon as the first university pays the first men's player there will be class action lawsuits from all the other athletes in non revenue sports, especially women's sports, demandinding equal treatment under title 9. And it will be a slam dunk win for the athletes, all the recent precedents support that type of decision.
That’s what I’m saying. I believe there is one already. I believe Oregon volleyball team… I’ll have to look it up. They really need to be careful.
it's also woodson's very binary approach to it all ... you know, the "buy a team" every year way that is just disgusting and should be, it just must end and why it hasn't is very concerning when there is money involved
If it wasn't for title 9. IU would not have a NCAA basketball team in the tournament this year

All good players are going to need NIL $$$ now. It's not up to the coach, it's just the way it is. It's why Mack is transferring from Harvard, because they didn't set up a proper NIL collective.
Indiana men’s basketball didn’t have a team in. Title 9 sucks.
I keep hearing about the NCAA letting this happen which they did. However, I am curious to what amount people think they should have paid to appease the student-, ooops, athletes to make it appear substantial enough. $10,000? $20,000? $30,000 would be my thought. 30 grand for the two revenue sports would be 98 guys for football and basketball. Whatever the amount don't forget to take it to account it would have to be equitable for Title IX. That is close to $6 million per school. Probably near where we are now without the sh!t show, but not in most schools' budgets.
College sports were in much better shape when those idiots were in charge. Actually it it could be argued that a different group of idiots are now in charge.
The Oregon beach volleyball lawsuit is about a team without any lockerroom , practice, or competition facilities being provided, for like a decade.
But they will use it. That’s what im saying. It’s also not 9-10 years old concern.
Lawsuit with Claim of Unequal Access to NIL Opportunities Raises New Title IX Concerns | Insights | Holland & Knight
A lawsuit puts an Oregon university at the center of a dispute over gender equity in college sports, including with respect to its involvement in name, image and likeness (NIL) benefits.

Yeah, that will help out..... US steel industry, all jobs now overseas killed by unions; US garment industry all jobs overseas, killed by unions; US auto industry, 80% of US jobs now non-union, over half the jobs overseas, killed by unions. Even president Obama said all those manufacturing jobs the unions ran out of the country are never coming back. I guess basketball fans will have to start enjoying FIBA games.It could get worse.

The unions didn't run anything out of the country. Our beloved representatives encouraged it and stood by and let it happen. All the while getting a kick back (No doubt).Screw the American working man. All for the love of their own personal and corporate greed. Did you ever hear of NAFTA or the US, (namely Bill Clinton) sponsorship of China into the WTO?
