    College Basketball Transfer Portal Thread - 2024

    Ok let's say I'm a billionaire...what has Ben shown that makes me want to donate? What are the selling points? Assume I'm not super into basketball but love my school and can be persuaded...maybe I donate to other sports already so I'm not cheap. Sell me as a casual rich person.

    Matt Birk: If college athletes enter the transfer portal they shouldn't be eligible for NIL money.

    Well he was discussing being an LB so I would assume scheme.

    Any chance of a return?

    Weren't we told he was a malcontent along with tbe other guys who left? You think he will have a better attitude now after getting spurred? I never bought the Sid Hartman "Guy leaving was a cancer" bs anyways so I am all for his return.

    So then the coach gets zero credit if the team plays well too? That seems at odds with every post you made last season...

    Matt Birk: If college athletes enter the transfer portal they shouldn't be eligible for NIL money.

    Even if we accept that all to be true...how does that make his opinion any less ridiculous? Great people say and think stupid things too ya know.

    Right but you wouldn't have that choice to make bga1 and neither did Coyle. The AD pays the coach, the collective pays the NIL. Unless you think the AD should give money to DTA over coaches which I don't think they are allowed to do.

    Matt Birk: If college athletes enter the transfer portal they shouldn't be eligible for NIL money.

    Those stipulations can't cap how much he is allowed to earn elsewhere, nor would that be allowed. Neither would it be for a player earning NIL. Even if you could somehow justify it there is no way courts would allow it. (nor should they) I get Birk's point, but much like most things the guy...

    Matt Birk: If college athletes enter the transfer portal they shouldn't be eligible for NIL money.

    He is allowed to have his opinion...it may be ridiculous and stupid, but he can definitely have it! Why would it make any sense to restrict a players NIL because they transfer. Leaving aside it would never hold up in court, why should athletes be treated different than the coaches? If PJ left...

    2024-25 Big Ten Roster/Free Agency News Only

    It tells me most of the stories out there about money are exactly what we said they were...BS. If teams were throwing around the types of dollars that the media is talking about more of the guys would be signing. The problem is the sources of those numbers are dubious at best... And the...

    Do they? And you know he is lying how exactly? Is it possible he just didn't want to play for the coach or wanted to play for a program that...you know...is going places? Nah...

    Spring Practice Observations

    Can both not be done? Is it ok to be happy for the plays he made but criticize the ones he didn't make? That is what I try to do...

    Northwestern home games

    We draw way better than NW even against our worst opponents...and our AD for as bad as it is would have a better plan in place than playing on a practice field with temp bleachers.

    1475 portal players

    Why should the player be any more committed to a school than their coach is? why do we judge them more harshly for doing the exact same thing every coach does?

    "A Good Roster" only matters if they stay. They aren't. So he really put together nothing. How long should we give him if he isn't even building a foundation. The Clem system doesn't work in todays P6 unless you are a better coach than CBJ appears to be.

    Everyone already isn't returning...are you ok? Don't you remember you were telling us all how it wasn't Ben's fault players left because money is all that matters. Money we supposedly don't have according to you...which should have helped players return...even though it didn't. Keep...

    Oklahoma AD has gone crazy, wants an off campus basketball arena / facilities ... with a $1B entertainment district development ...

    I had student tix at the Dome...I honestly never minded going there. But it was a struggle to find others and really outside of Move In Day (which would always have a game to go to) or the bigger games the attendance was hindered. It was helped by the price though... Off topic...but after the...
