Another pro vs college viewpoint I’ve not seen

Let’s say you are on college roster. You are maybe 2 or 3 deep awaiting your turn to take over for starter if he gets hurt or graduates.

Worked your arse off and learned thru hard work year round and patience/trust in program. Then your team decides to bring in a pro at your spot. All the sudden you might lose your depth spot because the team brought in a pro.

I think this could backfire and maybe cause some great depth to leave after season knowing team could do it again next year. After all your work and waiting the team hired a pro to basically jump the line ahead of you.

Curious how this shakes out longer term. Players might hesitate wanting to transfer to a school who brought pro’s in. And if they being in pro that means you get way less NIL money as its given to pro vice you.

So many moving parts and will be interesting how it shakes out. I think teams taking a pro player might see future ramifications from it. If I was a school talking to a good portal player or recruit, I’d mention how team X is known to bring in pro’s to jump the line. Could be used to negative recruit portals and recruits.
