    New Executive Order on College Sports

    Two of my key interests in college sports were (a) every year we'd get a roster of 25% new players (unlike say the NFL where the marquee talent tends to stay around longer) so there was always hope that "this year's cruits are going to make a difference" and (b) the previous year's players that...

Note that the EO doesn't prevent schools or players from doing anything; it just states that if they choose not to follow the guidelines, then there's a chance they won't get federal grants. Schools and players can make their own choice. Sure, this will be...

    New Executive Order on College Sports

    IMO, the current state of college sports is not sustainable. It used to be that non-helmet schools had a chance to compete by recruiting "diamonds in the rough" and, through coaching and development programs, those 'cruits would become contributors to a successful team. Now that's gone. Every...
