Re: Clunie Email re NIL
Market value is what people are willing to pay. If our players can find people willing to pay them more than $70k to play ball, then their market value is more than $70k. Capping their 'wages' at the cost of attendance is anti-capitalist. If we don't like the way capitalism allows some people to be ...

Re: Clunie Email re NIL
If cheering for young athletes who are finally getting compensated at fair market rates for their work thrills you, write that check (if your finances allow it). How many Davidson basketball scholarship players have a fair market value significantly over the $70,000+ base pay? I don't know. But mos...

Re: Welcome Zach Laput!
[quote=85Wildcatsky . [/quote] I dont see how we are any different than Kentucky on this one. We are bringing in a one year free agent with no intent to graduate and if lucky he can show enough to get picked up by Euro Pro League. It looks like a "B" level carbon copy. I would love to see the course...

Re: Welcome Zach Laput!
Motion to welcome Zach with open arms, shower him with gratitude, root for him as hard as we'd root for any other Cat, and give him the benefit of the doubt when it comes to his spring semester academic performance. Dude's a D2 All American. We should be counting our lucky stars that he opted to pla...

Re: It has come to this - Camelot is Gone
Sorry, “Dorothy” but this isn’t 1964 anymore. In 2024, as it has been for several decades, blacks have had no barriers to admission to Camelot, more so some might think with our school’s focus on diversity and inclusion. Are you not shaped today by the experiences you were allowed in 1964? Are you ...

Re: It has come to this - Camelot is Gone
Still must disagree Mac, hopefully without being disagreeable, but in my heart since 1964 Camelot was very real to me. But 1964 for you was likely very different compared to 1964 for other students, and for many, many more young Black men who never even got the chance to be students simply because ...

Re: It has come to this - Camelot is Gone
This pernicious narrative that all whites are oppressors and all blacks are oppressed victims is a lie. No matter how overblown the race war mongers spew this divisive propaganda without any data supporting it, everyone of good faith knows the truth. If that's what you take from it, that's a you pr...

Re: It has come to this - Camelot is Gone
I think the main objection was the mandatory requirement. It comes across as a Red Guard struggle session when you have to watch. Reminds me of mandatory chapel. No one should object to the movie being shown, that’s what liberal arts are all about. I wonder if it was mandatory in the sense of "If y...

Re: It has come to this - Camelot is Gone
Structural and institutional racism take on many forms in the US. Housing is a great example. Home-ownership is the single best way for families to build intergenerational wealth, and until the 1960s, racial descrimination was baked into federal housing policy. LBJ's reforms made such discrimination...
