Explain it to me. Don't just downvote. Why should Isaiah Bond be a free agent, but not Kayshon Boutte? Why should Amari Niblack be a free agent but not Deandre Hopkins?

Sure, I can provide my perspective. I didn’t downvote (FWIW).

I think the NFL and college example provided is an apples to orange comparison. In the NFL, most players are compensated and it’s their full time job. In college, the majority of the players are not compensated (In comparison) and not full time employees. NFL players can request trades, request releases, etc. CFB can not. The rules are completely different. It’s two different beasts.

What are you advocating for? Players have to stay with their original team upon original commitment? They can’t change their teams on their own terms but the coaches/school can force them out at anytime?

With that being said. I do think we need more guardrails and standardization around the portal and NIL though. I also think commitments mean a whole lot less than they used to but unfortunately that’s the time we live in.
