If you are a K-State fan you were rooting for a guy who had (at best) a tangential relationship to your school. Although I don't think the young man played all that much.

Re: Portal

This needs to wind up with a marketplace. Sign players to contracts, be it one year, two year, etc. Allow the two parties to negotiate. My gut would be that would all but eliminate one year players.

Re: Meanwhile, at CofC…

Also just finished Among the Bros. The problem at CofC was a murder happened. The drug distribution system is pervasive among colleges. There were plenty of drugs at Davidson. They didn’t fall from the sky.

Re: Real pattern of success for Davidson hoops

Pretty risky move for a so-so D1 player unless a real grad degree. You wind up four years behind in the job market,even though you may be pocketing NIL money. How many Ford F150s can one sell working for Bubba Alumnus after you finish your eight years of college? And if you were only at the school o...

Too many pundits on Samford’s bandwagon. Hope it doesn’t jinx them.

Re: The Bright Side of Not Being in Brooklyn Now

Statistics are all spin. On a per minute basis, is it more dangerous in your home, or in your car, or on a subway? Or another way to look at it, if you spent 18 hours a day on a subway, would you be more safe than being home for 18 hours? I used to take the subway to work. Would see crime about once...

Re: Davidson's Best Basketball Teams

Obviously they don’t weigh late season improvement. We were the third best team in the country in ‘08. After what Kansas did to Carolina in the semis, I will give Memphis its due as #2.

Re: Don’t Call it NIL

Doesn’t matter. The NIL model will be obsolete once the litigation is settled. The payments will come directly from the schools.
