You waver back and forth between treating athletes like employees and treating them like our children. I have every right to shop around my services but if my firm found out I was shopping around, my email would be cut off and id be terminated immediately. I’m at “at-will” employee and they...

He reminds me of a less athletic and slightly worse shooting version of JP Macura. He kind of plays bully ball where he is quick enough to get by most HS forwards and stronger than almost all HS guards. I think coaches see him and they think an athletic 6'5" -6'5" player might lock him up. All...

I would hate to live in Lubbock other than if I was going to college there. A lot of crappy towns are fun places to go to school.

He looks like a solid all around player - definitely fills up the stat sheet (assists, rebounds, steals).

I was fully intending to sh!t all over Marcus’s take, but I can kinda see it.

Q Employees have a right to seek other jobs and employers have a right to terminate you for looking for other jobs. They can certainly terminate you for not showing up to work. Non compete and non-solicitation agreements are also incredibly common. You’re kind of stuck in thinking these...

Restraints on trade are not per se as issue. There are tons of examples of perfectly reasonable restraints on trade. The issue comes down to reasonableness of which there is often a geographic or temporal limits to those restraints. I have no idea what the rest of your post has to do with the...

And the physique of the JCC Wednesday Night Men's League.

Your question is difficult to answer - it's like the Dawson Garcia question. The way the rules are currently written and enforced in the past - no. That said, I don't understand how the same arguments (unreasonable restraint on trade) could not be made by a 27 year old who could make more...

There probably sent us an invoice.

This will cost him money.

$4 million is going to be really tough. I think most people believe he is good but Tennessee's system does inflate the numbers a bit. Colorado? They just got the QB from Liberty. Oregon? Does he really risk it all to jump into that QB battle? UCLA? Do they come up with $4 million? Does he put...

Well yeah, anything would have been better than tying it up in court. That wouldn't have accomplished anything. They had three real options - pay him, move on, or let him sit out and hope he returns for the fall. I'm glad they chose not to pay him more and I don't think he'll make more money...

it’d be really hard to have a contract that forces people to play. You’re right, there are very alternatives for NFL players. They can’t just sit out and move on to another league. However, thst is pretty unique to the NFL.

Tie up in court with him not playing? I don’t think delaying is in Tennessee’s best interests.

Venables is one of the most successful defensive coordinators in the last two decades.

Was that $5 all you can drink?

I hear you. For many of them, it is just a wasted opportunity. Even if they have a million bucks from playing basketball in the future (NIL, Euro, etc.), an accounting degree or something of value could really come in handy in the future. In some ways, I don't blame them. I mean they are...

Go on youtube and look up "Florida Gators' First Class After Winning". The interviewer asks every player what their first class back after winning will be - none of them could answer. A couple of them didn't even understand the question.
