BUFORDGAWOLVES Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 Of course, the "Plantation Mentality" is gonna scream integrity, commitment, community, loyalty bullshit.... It should be rich with discourse. BGW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCBlackhatter Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 I support this idea, but think an athlete should be ineligible despite the circumstances if they chose to transfer a second time. There should be no waiver or appeals process after the first occurrence because we see now that the NCAA is incapable of handling it. It would also force Tom Mars to make his money another way. Lol I'd also like to see them place a regulation on the schools and limit the number of transfers they can take in a single year. Give them a maximum of 5 scholarships for transfer athletes in football and any transfers over that number must pay tuition and all other expenses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUFORDGAWOLVES Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 I’m all for free market. Athletes have a small window to exploit the opportunity. Get all you can get, because the big bad entity has been making big bank off the backs of these athletes for years. Socioeconomics et al.... well that’s a whole another topic to justify it. We’re only 150 years behind.... not bad, huh? BGW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do not uphold the contract obligations (transfer, bad grades, discipline issues, etc.) then they are subject to financial penalties. It would have to be set up the same as professional sports. The biggest hurdle would be what amount each player makes. Will 4th string walk-ons be paid the same as the Heisman winning QB? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still like the free market unfettered approach... basically employees with the amount of demands put on these athletes to make huge cash for these programs and the NCAA. As far as a scale for Heisman versus regular Joe... never given much thought to that... how would that work? As far as the obligations you've outlined, certainly should left up to the respective programs... the NCAA has proven time after time to be unfair, inconsistent and selective in enforcement.

BGW I don't know how you determine the pay scale. My idea would be to pay a base salary with different performance bonuses (starts, games played, TDs, yards, etc) built in similar to what professional sports teams have. I think the NCAA should have minimal oversight, but some regulation will be needed. I believe all schools would have stipulations on transferring if they are going to pay the players as well as give them free education. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what get's me... with obligations in the sport, community outreach, workouts, team bonding and hosting recruits leaves very little time on top of studies and tutoring to enjoy the "free". "Free" education is a mischaracterization of the relationship. BGW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
