2024 Edition-Bilas “Let them transfer at Halftime to the opposing team” Portal Update

[JVShocker]

There's non-nil money to be made here by players. Think about it. Pitino comes at you during the season, starts whispering things into your ears. Just whisper back, ummmm, Mr. Pitino, I'm gonna need a new ride and some spending money if you don't want me going to the press with this information.

In all seriousness, I thought this behavior was OK. I don't know what this NCAA thing is that's doing the investigation, but if the same NCAA that's losing left and right, well, they're on shaky ground.

Actually, I assumed that was legal now

Actually, I didn’t realize NCAA rules were still a thing.

Simon Charles is a troll account folks

This is the way that the NCAA is going to act like they are doing something instead of punishing KU for all that they do.

I knew someone had to be the fall guy for Bill Self... just didn't think it would be Rick Pitino

That is more believable than NCAA going after a coach for recruiting players on other teams. Seems like an odd thing to say.

The NCAA protects schools, not coaches. St. Johns is a nothing to the NCAA so he's fair game.

Somehow managed to get even more unlikeable to watch

Penny is a straight up poacher. This kind of stuff has to be regulated. You can’t tell me he wasn’t in this kids ear prior to the end of the season or his entering the portal. NCAA is a joke.

On this we agree 100%

Why would any player in this league wanna go to Memphis? Aren’t they paying attention and seeing first hand what kind of results he’s getting out of his roster? I guess it must just be about the quick cash because if you’re transferring to Memphis, you probably are gonna be disappointed by the end of the year or end of your career.
