      The transfer portal has turned college ball into pro euro basketball, and that SUCKS.

      • Not sure why everyone is acting surprised all these kids are transferring and wondering why. Blame the system not the kids. Sanctimonious viewpoints are not based on today's reality.

          100%, if the system is in place and allows these kids to maximize the earning potential they can receive, why shouldn't they? Only one team wins a title each year - if you're going somewhere for a chance to win, that's going to be a low percentage proposition.

            This system used to be educationally based, and it’s now becoming professionally and television viewing based. There are 200,000 Div. 1 athletes. How many of these athletes/schools that are not in a P 5 school will continue to carry swimming, diving, wrestling, gymnastics, soccer, Track and Field, etc. How about girls sports? Will these athletes all continue to compete in this era of professional college sports. I think that there will be harm done to all of these other athletes and minor sports, including the minor sports at schools like Wichita State, and those athletes will continue to wither away, as television monies dry up. I’m no longer watching basketball or football like I used to.

              "Educationally based" athletics are now D2/D3/NAIA. There needs to be some guardrails put up, and I suspect to some degree we'll see that over the next few years, but make no mistake... the genie isn't going back in the bottle. D1 programs/fans waiting for a return of the good ole' days are kidding themselves. The longer it takes fans/coaches/administrations to accept it and become innovative and proactive, the farther those programs will fall.

                  From what I understand, there is a lot of reneging going on in regards to nil deals. They may be waiting a while.

                    No doubt, final checks come on senior night. Make them backloaded.

                    • There's going to be more than a few unhappy campers as rosters start to fill and their old team has moved on and filled their spot.

                      Some will end up going from a starter last year to a 2nd or 3rd backup or having to go to a team lower than the one they left.

                        It’s worse than pro euro basketball.

                        • I don’t know how someone can be a fan or follow it. It’s now minor league ball and everyone is a free agent every year and probably in negotiations for the following season before current one is over.

                              Sweet. Seen some cool stuff they've done with other schools. Gives you something for your NIL money instead of just donating it. Will def get some Shocker gear from them. Officially licensed with the school too!

                                Well, it's got all the constant transferring of players with less skill overall. So yeah, worse than pro euro basketball.
