re: Malachi Moore Issues a Statement About His Behavior on Saturday

It reminds me of the coin toss at the 09 Sugar Bowl. Our guys started talking trash and threatening the Utah players and Utah proceeded to kick the piss out of them on the field.

The only path forward to remotely getting a semblance of it back under control is to have a mandatory salary cap in place, with contracts for the players, just as the NFL does. That way, all teams will only have a certain amount of money to spend on players each year, and there will be set stipulations for the players, including regarding their conduct on and off the field. However, as is, I have no idea how we can get to that point of order in college athletics again.

It'll never happen. The NCAA or Congress or whoever can put a salary cap on what schools pay players but they can't do anything about the colllectives and boosters paying players whatever they want. Under the guise of NIL they can't tell a player how much he's allowed to make off his Name, Image, and Likeness. The players would immediately sue and would win that court case 100 out of 100 times. So coaches have to walk a razor thin line between trying to maintain discipline vs. players with eligibility remaining hitting the portal because they don't like the coach disciplining them and they know they'll make money just by transferring.

Malachi is a special case because he's a 5th year senior but let's say Ryan Williams does the same thing Moore did Saturday. Do you bench him? Seriously ask yourself what you would do. If you say you have to set an example and bench him then you risk him saying he's gonna sit out the rest of the season and enter the portal. He knows teams would drop absolute bags for him. And now you lost your best player. His best friend Mbakwe probably follows his example and sits and transfer. Now you've lost another 5 star freshman. How long til it snowballs? I don't know what a coach is supposed to do in the situation they're now in.

Well, that definitely wasn't written for him or scripted. Not reading from a teleprompter like the US President either.

what is going on with Damien? What has he been saying?

Seems he’s saying guys didn’t act the way Malachi did and she in turn is comparing it to the national championship altercation between Jones and AJ in order to defend Malachi.

He also said this:

She's a racist piece of shite. It's why she limits the replies to her tweets. She tweeted something crazy racist about Tyler Buchner being Asian before he transferred here from Notre Dame.

Damien is a very by the book guy, but she's absolutely wild if she thinks former players wouldn't have ripped Malachi apart. Not even remotely similar to AJ arguing with his center up 4 scores in the title game

One of them was two guys getting heated with each other over competition and the other is throwing a bitchfit because he lost. And as far as im aware neither AJ nor Barrett ever tried to justify it

Absolutely correct. DeBoer has let the players do whatever they want without consequence. The end zone dances need to stop.

You act like this is new. Go back and watch Smitty and Metch in 2020 after a TD. They did the Bill and Ted guitar dance. Nobody had any problem with it then.

That's what coaches would do and fanbases would support IF people really gave a shite about education - which they don't.

This becomes truer everyday. People complain about x not being s good representative of the university, but no we can't discipline him because he'll play football elsewhere.
