Heavy sigh.
Yeah, that should improve college athletics.
Some people can't just leave well enough alone - got to ruin it for the rest of us.
If that's the way it is and the way it is going to be.Yeah, that should improve college athletics.
So what else is new? Moving quickly toward the Power 2 breakup with rest of the slug universities.
Would the schools have to provide classes or could they all follow the old unCheat model?If he's the owner, then it's his responsibility to pay the players.
"51% stake in their teams at a $500M to $750M valuation and then use that money for NIL and facility upgrades."
Making those upgrades would also fall on him, as the owner. With a 51% stake, the colleges would only be there to provide an education and let him pay for everything else.
New car, caviar, four star daydream…
Well, according to reports by Zach Abolverdi of Gators Online, Pyburn demanded a $45,000 monthly stipend, a guaranteed starting position as an outside linebacker, an assurance of playing on third downs and increased snaps in the rotation.
The Gators declined these requests by Pyburn which resulted in his entry into the transfer portal.
These demands, particularly the hefty financial request and the guaranteed playing time, are not typical in college athletics, where competition and performance are supposed to dictate playing time and roles.
This situation raises several crucial questions about the future of college sports. Are we entering an era where player demands become increasingly bold and universities are forced to weigh the potential benefits of acquiescing against the risks of unmanageable precedents?
This quote is hilarious:This is something that will eventually bump out the best coaches, as I suspect Tony Bennett is an example; players making demands of both cash and playing time. Coaches are going to be replaced by guys whose primary concern is managing egos and money over managing the games.
This is the scene in Florida, as a player didn't get what he wanted and said Seeeeya.

NCAA needs to update its rules so individual sport college athletes can get prize money. A UNC tennis player had to refuse $20k or something like that from the WTA tour after winning one round at the US Open qualifiers because it'd make her ineligible to compete in NCAA. (She could play in the tournament, just not get prize money). Yet football players can accept millions, it's a total double standard.Duke Women's Tennis scored a big freshman prospect. Maybe there's NIL money in some non-revenue sports?

He also demanded playing a specific position, guarantee on 3rd down plays with increased plays overall. For me, team is better off if he leaves.This isn't actually that crazy, the kid essentially asked for 450K and ti know his role on the team won't be diminished as hes a pillar of the defense.
