@mprate008 @LunalNewport Why are you asking about today? This post and my response are about the end of the Civil War.

@mprate008 @LunalNewport Yes I understand what happens in war. A war they started. I feel like part of our problem today is they were too easy on slavers and traitors.

@mprate008 Not true. Student athletes in the non-revenue sports don’t get paid, but B1G is still winning those titles too

A big reason the Big ten is doing so well in so many sports besides the money, is visibility. The B1G TV footprint spreads over just about every major TV market and across the entire US. Recruits get to see the games, and family/friends can watch them.

@LarryJones He has sided with the uniparty over his base. Tucker Carlson isn't the enemy. He's listening to the wrong people

@HecoxMichelle @SetonCbb You can't have a competitive sports league without rules. This is a disaster. It will all collapse. Worse than NASCAR

@mprate008 @SetonCbb They were absolutely not getting their market value by receiving a scholarship. The changes are made in order to comply with law. It’s no one’s fault, it’s the law.

What happened to the game I love? Players get paid Coaches get paid Fans get nothing and care more about a program than any of the players If it wasn’t for the fans, players and coaches would be worth nothing Glad I got to see the other side because it might be gone forever

@HecoxMichelle @SetonCbb No one made them play. A lot of kids in lesser sports got a free education. They were getting something for their efforts. Now programs will fold and many young people's lives will be different

@SetonCbb Coaches have always been paid. Players should have always been paid and not doing so was a violation of federal law. Fans get entertained but the players are the ones who give their blood, sweat, and tears.

@CoachScott619 @Mr704intheQC The state has funded the university for the purposes of providing the residents of the state an opportunity for higher education. The idea that it is directly funding the athletics dept so it can “compete” is absurd. Either it competes thru private donations or it loses.

College Transfer Portal
College Transfer Portal@CollegeFBPortal·
NEW: Wisconsin athletics will now receive $14.6M annually from the state. This new law recognizes Wisconsin Athletics' role as an “economic engine for the state.” Should taxpayers fund NIL checks for college athletes? 🤯

It’s amazing how STUPID people are. They’re willing to throw away an R majority and potentially the next R presidency because of one god damn issue like Epstein or glyphosate, all while ignoring all of the other positive things this administration has done. If it turns out this way they deserve what’s coming next

I don’t regret my vote for Trump in 2024. The opposite. Still glad. People are in denial though. They don’t want to hear the truth. The Epstein files gamesmanship hurt but could have been mostly forgotten. The Iran war on top of that has been a disaster.

I went to 4 schools in 4 years and damn sure none of them were paying me to go there All this to say I have ZERO problems with the transfer portal and young men and women taking advantage of their opportunity to get paid a bunch of money Sounds more like the fans have the issue

A large public university could probably give a free education to 100 kids for a year for the price of that top big man. Wow.
Jeff Goodman@GoodmanHoops

The @TheFieldOf68 has polled 10-plus high-major head coaches, assistants and GM's for the following prices that elite (Top 25 guys) portal players will likely command:

@abrazomack @JohnnieBaxley3 Sure it does. But talent in controlled competition isn't that valuable. Most can't make that money outside of college. People want to watch college kids play, not minor leagues

This racist woman went to University of South Carolina & she’s posting this nasty racist video in her bathroom. She’s talking about how red birds need to be with red birds only & white birds with white birds. She agrees with Segregation & her family is racist. She’s vile & evil.

@Sauce_MacKenzie Doesn't affect me at all. A lot of poor black Mississippi high school kids will be affected by the current state of college athletics. They will lose their opportunities to grown men and European professionals. And you won't notice
