What loyalty do fans have to players? If UA could replace anyone on the roster with someone better out of the portal, you guys would be all for it.

Loyalty? It's non-existent both ways. The players want money and opportunities, and the fans want wins and championships. The players don't give frick whose uniform they wear if provided with the best opportunity available, and the fans don't give a frick who wears the uniforms as long as they win games.


And that is the problem.

At least in the pros you can lock in a player (and a commitment) by an agreement. You can’t do that in college - it is the Wild, Wild West.

From ESPN:

quote:

Bond said new Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer reached out and that he didn't get back to him.


What a prick. To not talk to DeBoer is childish. He didn’t want to be talked to about the direction of the team - he was paid for - why do that?
