Re: NCAA and Prig5 anti trust settlement
If you are going to pay them, pay them either minimum wage for the hours of athletic instruction per week or the going rate for all on campus student employment. I understand that they aren’t allowed to hold down jobs like normal students, but they shouldn’t be getting a kings ransom. I’ve never un...

Re: NCAA and Prig5 anti trust settlement
I see a lot of biased opinions who are butt hurt that the old system is dying. Like it or not the courts got it right. If you want to blame anyone then blame the cartel of colleges that created the farce of amateur athletics to begin with. It's always been a farce. At least place the blame on the c...

Re: NCAA and Prig5 anti trust settlement
Here’s a thought. If you want to play sports in college and get a free education but don’t want to be exploited by the school earning money off of you on TV, just opt out of playing in any competitions that are televised. Problem solved.

Re: 2024 Baseball Mega Thread
Have our exit interviews been completed? Any idea where we stand portal wise? Seems like some have posted they’re returning but haven’t seen a portal yet. The official portal is private and exclusive to NCAA coaches. I believe that there is a portal behind the paywall at D1Baseball.com, but like th...

It’s hard to complain about 3 of your first 4 being picked up by the networks.

Us @ Boise next year immediately trumps that. This could get ESPN2 noon kickoff billing.

Re: App State vs Boise State, 25 and 27
Been thinking about this since I found out. Probably flying into SLC and driving up. Sounds like a plan. I’m going to try to do the same. How are y’all booking/looking flights 1+ year out? None of the websites are letting me go beyond April/May 2025. Not booking, just figuring out where to fly in a...

Re: NCAA and Prig5 anti trust settlement
Interesting. How so? I’m curious. My only thought as to why they would have to be contractors is due to the need to annually renew much like the current scholarship model. If you have limits on the number of “employees” that you have, then how do you cut loose underperforming employees? Is NC a rig...

Re: NCAA and Prig5 anti trust settlement
