More potential NCAA changes

I believe "Slobodan" has been hitting your pipe while your bent over....
That's disgusting you pervert. How that image even registers in your sick mind is none of my business. I might have to ignore you sicko!!!
 
100% Coach. My reputation was destroyed by assholes in youth soccer because I caught them all. Today, they & them call me names but one thing they & them can't take from me is my character.

"Slobodan", your Ukrainism is showing huckleberry, wanting free everything I see.... and watch your language you stupid f*ck...
"Wanting free everything." What are you crying about now? Ukrainism? Is that some word or concept? Did you hit "post reply" before allowing intellect to muddy your waters?
 
I own five currently, for whatever point you're trying to make of that...and I pay no one less than $25 per hour. I understand the human dignity in work and I consider everyone valuable enough to earn a living wage for an honest day's work. I suppose I could be somewhat wealthier if I had a different viewpoint, but I would be no happier.
I know you're going to have the last word, so I do hope it brings you joy...
Earn a living wage? 16-year olds mopping floors and shaking salt on fries don't need a "living wage". But I guess there's more dignity in salt shakers when some fool pays you $30 an hour.

You're a saint.
 
Not how it works Slobo, and it never has. Making a bullshit argument, getting called on it, and then asking them to provide proof (when you didn't), is trolling 101.

If you (or anyone who agreed with your point of view), actually believed that raising the minimum wage would materially cut jobs and be overall worse economically for the population as a whole, they'd look at all of the times it actually has been done and nothing of the sort came to pass. And they'd stop making the false argument. But you don't, they don't, and you're both full of crap - even if you believe in your bones that you're not.
I'll repeat myself. I've watched kids lose their jobs because of this minimum wage increase. That's how it works. Firsthand knowledge. That's not a bullshit argument. Saying California is a wealthy state and the 4th or 5th biggest economic power... blah blah blah... when we're billions in debt and facing massive financial shortcomings is trolling 101. I gave you proof and you chose to ignore it.

That money comes from somewhere and that somewhere is business owners.
 
I had to do a double take to see if this thread was in "The Kitchen". Why do you insist in bringing these political discussions here? Can't you keep them in "The Kitchen" with all the other ill-informed bottom feeders?
Sorry, I hope you and your vagina recover from veering off course for a second. The thread is about NIL and paying players.

Maybe one day I'll be able to hang in the penthouse with all the genius soccer parents on this forum.

Elite Soccer parents know best, that's why they have their own Elite League. It's a league that now cost $20K a year to compete in. We got one guy on here that owns 5 businesses and another one that is a moron. These men are weak and bought. They buy what they want and then tell you to STFU and get lost. $20,000 a year to play Elite soccer in America. The rich elite's prey on the poor dad & child who can ball. "I don't have any money to fly to the East Coast to be with my daughter." Elite parent and dumb Doc: "Don't worry crush, we will take good care of her."
 
So stupid. 4th team for this kid. We're going to say this is good for college football?

I got fucking ripped on here in 2018 for being a club hopper. I was told by one jerk that if I leave his precious almighty club and hop away to another club that it would look bad on my daughter because and I quote, "college coaches don't like club hoppers." Ok wise ass, now what do you have to say? He's on here lurking at all my posts. It may be the Jeter dude. These guys are sick bro. They're into some weird fetishes. Now everyone in college is college hopping in sports. The 11 girls' soccer scholarships going to incoming freshman is not looking good.
 
Really? You aren't seeing a ton of problems already that come from this? Why do we need college football at all if it's not amateur? We have the NFL. It's better quality already. How long before we start looking at college football like the NBA? Nobody is paying to see them play. Nobody is paying to watch our kids play club soccer. It's headed that direction.
Surely the NFL has colluded with college football for years, e.g. they have left Saturday's free for college football on TV, but once the season is over, they immediately schedule on Saturday's. Its a great system for the NFL. They get a "farm" system and reap the benefits from it via the draft and pay nothing for it. The NBA does pretty much the same although they will take some players earlier if they are exceptional. They also have the Euro leagues developing players from a younger age and we can see the impact of some of those top players now (Jokic, Antetokounmpo, Doncic, Wembanyama etc.).

I've never thought of college football and basketball as amateur sports with coaches getting paid in the millions and stadiums selling out with 100K fans. NIL just makes all the alleged payments that have been going on for years open and transparent. If people are prepared to pay them, then why not tbh.

I don't have a problem with NIL, per se, as much as it screws up the nostalgia when the transfer portal combination allows and encourages kids to bounce around like pinballs. And I don't think it's peaked yet in terms of how jacked up it's going to be. And I don't have a problem with the NFL colluding with college because it helps both and hurts nobody. But when was the last time you saw an inferior product get as much or more popularity than the best? Pretty rare if any. There's something special about college sports... I suppose football and men's basketball but the rest are only being watched by parents, students and the faithful.

I'll disagree with you about the "amateur" part because I think tuition, meal cards, a stipend, swag, etc really isn't all that much relative to the coaches and stadiums you refer to. The football and basketball revenue funds all the other programs, though, right? And isn't that part of meshing 25-50 sports teams per university? I just don't like it... and I think the worst is yet to come.

With the craziness that is NIL and the transfer portal, maybe the draft (for the NFL/NBA) should go away. Maybe colleges should start asking for transfer fees when a NFL or NBA team is interested in one of their players. And, if a player transfers to another school there can be solidarity payments.

I guess. Don't know what the answer is but college sports required a commitment and that seems to have gone by the wayside.

I'd love to know how many players enter the portal and end up with nothing because nobody picked them up. Is that being talked about or posted anywhere? I guess they just call a juco and play there for a year? I wonder how many portal players an existing coach brings back.
 
NIL clearly is not working out for most players. Kids are getting fired or not paid if they don't perform. That is the main reason kids are transferring.No one will pay you if you are not a major contributor. The parent's need to tell their player go to school get a free education if you can get few extra bucks that's cool. But some of these kids parental/environmental situations are not all peaches and cream.

There is such a lack of commitment now with the portal as it is in any college sport. I am so glad my DD is happy where she is and has no plans to move. The metric on female college players is 1200 in the portal. But, what does it look like for football? X (Twitter) and TPD have some players posted who publicly announced there situation. I know that my DD coach did bring back a player who did not get picked up twice. He did it because the player is a solid citizen.

A local South Bay (in LA) WCC D1 coach told any player that if they did not play last year or contribute should move on.

Lots of girls quit the last few years. Covid sure did a number on all the girls. Some girls were blocked entry into a college all together. NCAA gave extra year and then added the portal. Two players I know quit this year because no one picked them up. The good news is they will graduate on time with good degrees and find work to work the rest of their lives.

Players are learning to get in where they fit in. People will soon wish for the days you can ride the bench and get a full ride for 4yrs.

Nothing like putting the school first from coach.

Coach: Grab a knee kids, coach has some news. Look, if you didn't play or contribute last year, get lost losers
