I mean in their defense their hands really are tied on a lot of this because every time they try to stop something they get sued and it seems like in general the players are winning pretty much every lawsuit.
I mean when even coaches like Izzo are unsure what the hell is going on that really...
Give me a break. Some of us (me included) had optimism that he would do well with the opportunity but even the most optimistic of posters basically hope Brosmer can carve out a backup role in the NFL.
Yeah, the new roster rules basically eliminate the idea of walk-ons paying their own way and trying to earn their spot. Those players now have to go to a lower level school and prove it there in order to move up to the power 4 level.
I'm just amazed we have reached a point already where someone who has played in the NBA may be joining a college team mid-season.
I mean seriously - that would have sounded insane a couple of years ago but now it is just yet another level of the mess that is college athletics.
In this particular case I think we are seeing revenue sharing at work.
In terms of how we stack up with other schools in terms of Pay for Play it seems clear we are not in the same league as the big spenders but we are holding our own in terms of being able to retain the majority of our key...
He would probably make more in the NFL but if he thinks he can improve his draft position that could lead to an even bigger payout plus more security as a higher draft pick.
In the meantime he makes good money playing college ball and continuing to develop at a place where he seems really happy.
Yeah....8:00 on a week night against a bad opponent. I mean we have already been struggling to bring fans back but a game like this is going to be a ghost town.
Any word on if with these long layoffs between games any of the injured guys are any closer to returning? Would be great to get some size back with Big Ten season right around the corner.
I mean with what is going on over in basketball right now pretty much anything is possible. There is a guy possibly coming to college basketball for the second half of the year who friggin played in NBA games this season.
I am sure Pavia is working on a lawsuit of some kind to get more years...
Small town Minnesota kid, didn't have a 247 rating and only school listed is Southwest Minnesota State.
Anyone who follows out-state schools more have a read on him or why he didn't really get noticed coming out of high school?
Good size at 6'1" - 193 - will be interesting to see if he ends up...
Would be interesting to see how it would all shake out if they didn't do pre-season rankings and waited multiple weeks before ranking teams.
Definitely interesting to see our resume and LSU's compared like this where basically everything is the same except for the time spent in the rankings.
