Doesn't the 5 years to play 4 inhibit NIL earnings?
Doesn't having to maintain a minimum GPA?
Doesn't having to enroll in a minimum 12 hours?
Doesn't being benched for breaking "arbitrary" rules?
The court system, not the NCAA, has killed amateur and college sports.
So in essence college sports becomes the TBT. Play forever if you can. Join the team the day before the game. It’s all good!

Is this ruling immediate?
Personally, I'll enjoy 2 more seasons of the QB at Vandy (unless he transfers, which is about 1,000,000% guaranteed) .
Closer to home, apparently we've got an entirely new prospect of a baseball program.
HCBG is almost there anyway, but why in the world would you recruit high school players anymore? Give me a team of 23-26 year olds all day, every day.
Mo gets another year. Ryan Callahan 1 more, Livvy 2 more. Think those guys would like to be on a FULL ride for grad school in spring '26? Think we would be better or worse if they stayed? (And I get that's an issue too) All the incoming guys are essentially freshmen......
Munz, Zang, Anderson, HOLMES are all sophomores. Colton Vercoe, a kid who has been getting good reviews after finally getting arm healthy this fall, might be a 22 year old freshman.
Grant Adler is a junior, and might get a hardship (and he would). Mount is a sophomore.
Jordan Black is a gd tank as a freshman now. And about 8 other potential new guys to the program. I just don't see why you'd want a freshman out of HS when you can get a 20-22 year old freshman.

Like you said, I think this affects baseball much more than basketball.
I actually don't mind this ruling as much as some of the other recent ones .. BUT it opens the door. I'm just waiting for the ruling that limiting players to 4 years at all limits their NIL potential so players should be able to play college ball as long as they want.
Then why should a player have to even go to school. That just limits their NIL potential....

It's wildly unhealthy for someone to be such a sore loser that his immediate family has to "clear the way" after a loss. That's the equivalent of someone saying, "Yeah my Dad's an emotional guy...you best steer clear when he's drinking too much". Just a terrible, toxic trait.

I just love all these fans who enjoyed all of the wins and championships during his tenure, but the second he left and now 4 years later, these same crickets fans all of a sudden come out of the woodwork and start character bashing and harping on “personality traits”.
Just a typical “Me too” poster.
I hope you’re enjoying the basketball being coached by a quiet nice guy now. You probably go to every game like you did 10 years ago too.
Freaking hypo.
When you learn new information about a person, say, their past indiscretions, you're allowed to alter your viewpoint of the person. It may be tough for some of you, but I really believe if you pull up your bootstraps and put on your thinking cap, you might just grow. It might require you jumping off the internet for a while though, which I know is tough considering you have posted on a fan forum 40,000 times.Last edited by wsushockerdude; 1 day ago."Say it slowly and savor it..."

Baseball will be different in that if you want to get to MLB level, you probably shouldn’t be starting initial pro ball at age 25.
But yeah, I’m about done with all this college crap. I wish I could move away from Wichita area so that the temptation to follow WSU wouldn’t be there. Probably easier to ignore from afar.78-65
