You gotta go back to grammar school man. It’s a false equivalency. He’s not saying you can’t leave for better opportunities, he’s saying if money is yours sole driver and motivator than he doesn’t what you in the program, simple as that. Nobody’s sole driver and motivator in college athletics should be strictly money, and money only.

What a quote from CofC AD Matt Roberts. In part... "If they sit in that room and hear that speech from those 2 coaches and that's not good enough for them, get out of here. Get out of here, go somewhere else. If money is your motivator, you are not wanted at CofC. That is a direct message to those student athletes"

@ChucktownHoops @SEisbergWCIV Never said he did have 4 jobs in 4 years. If U want 2 play the name calling game UR inability to comprehend concepts that take more than 1 brain cell is pathetic. Did I do the insult thing correctly? Reality is he left 4 better options-Yet he wants to bitch 4 SA doing the same.

@FredJohnsonf2 @SEisbergWCIV Probably the dumbest response I’ve seen to this. He’s had 3 jobs in 30 years which is how the real world typically works, not 4 jobs in 4 years. Also all of those are title upgrades. Going from TCU to Belmont to Tennessee isn’t upgrading it’s going up down and sideways.

“Black People learn how America works at a very young age. The rules are just different for us. Of course it’s not fair & not how it should be, but it’s just the way it is. White privilege exists in every aspect of society, including college basketball.” theguardian.com/sport/2026/mar…

@queenie4rmnola @KyrieIrving Amazing that you became a doctor. I guess you are so much better than other folks who look like you that you can succeed, but that can’t. Simply amazing.

10-12 generations of race-based slavery in America is not something to "get over." It's a legacy to reckon with

@JDSHELBURNE What’s the # you willing to pay? 4? 6? 9? At some point, he’s not worth it. He’s played at 3 schools for a reason. He’s a Nike kid who is likely to go to an adidas school. When’s that happened at this level before?

Certain folks love calling NCAA athletics a 'marketing arm' for a university to justify employee status. Generally speaking, college athletics is a marketing arm for... Wait for it... College. Athletics. (and no, increased applications doesn't help a school like many claim)
Mit Winter@WinterSportsLaw

The issues being discussed in college athletics arise from a big picture question. Are athletic teams marketing vehicles for universities or are they extracurricular activities? For FBS 🏈 & DI🏀 , the answer is the former. And by playing the athletes are performing a service.

@BRamseyKSR If a player “checks all the boxes” they likely aren’t leaving their current situation, and if they do, it’s to go pro Gotta earn your money in talent evaluation see which guys will make the jump

Something to keep in mind when "evaluating" transfers... Of the Top 25 transfers last season only FOUR were high-major All-Conference performers. Four more were Player of the Year at a mid-major. 12 had NO "accolades." The point being...the best options aren't always OBVIOUS.

@BigBlueNationD1 @AllUKBall_HPS This is the rub- IMO many BBN fans want/believe players like this are transferring to be backups. I think that’s why kids like Mo were pretty disgruntled - I can’t imagine these kids think of themselves as BUs.

@NILnotNLI @NFLAgents_net This is the modest of the AD at Kentucky. His dumb@SS built an entire marketing campaign with corporate sponsors and a recruiting pitch that clearly doesn’t work. … play for the name on the front……

Former University of Texas ​AD Steve Patterson once argued that individual athletes don’t create the value in college sports. The university brand does. ​He essentially claimed fans pay for the front of the jersey, not the player. He was fired after less than 2-years on the job

@RowlandRIVALS I also don't expect a new AD to come in and fire the beloved alumni/coach a few months into the job. AD will probably feel Pope is getting a free year even if he doesn't deserve it.

Pope has to have a great offseason. Whatever you think he has to do to make it to Year 4, the most important fact in the situation is a new athletics director is coming in. A new coach wants to pick his own quarterback. A new AD is not going to tolerate restless natives early.
