Sad how soft and sissy the whole West Coast has become. Pitiful

Didn’t the running back from Miss State threaten to do the same over the state flag? It’s everywhere now.

What are their demands?

Most people who talk about this have no idea what "change" needs to happen.

Make an example of the ringleaders. Schollies pulled. Tuition bills sent. Enough is enough on this foolishness.

A P5 CFB Player will never see a tuition bill as long as he has eligibility remaining

They can always Transfer to a Wake or Vandy and get a full scholly and likely be better than the guy at their position at those Schools or Transfer to a G5 like SMU, FAU, FIU, USF,Memphis, Houston, etc

130 Colleges offer 85 schollies, they'll find a place to get a free Education and a shot at the NFL

The only foolishness in all this is you wasting keystrokes thinking that any of these players will have their schollies pulled and will get to see what a Tuition Bill looks like, FOR THE VERY 1ST TIME IN THEIR LIVES

Lots of warped realities around here

Since 2007 Bama has led the way with the “LGBTQIA+ Capstone initiative” and campus safe spaces way before Mizzou joined the SEC:

The main issue they want to address is racial injustice. WTF does any of that even mean?

This is true if you're a star.

Not so much if you're a third string tailback at Cal.

YOU are the one calling it foolishness, a G5 HC making $1.5Million per year that wants to get to the P5 and make $4-5 Million per year sees this SAME SITUATION as an "opportunity" to increase his Team's Talent level win more Games and then get a bigger Contract at a P5 College

Your "foolishness" is some G5 HC's chance to move up and put more money in his pocket

It's all about perspective

Season ticket holders are going to be the next group to threaten a boycott. I'll be one of them.

Say okay and take away their scholarships, dorms, food pass, everything.

They will come back very quickly


I'm amazed at how stupid so many of you guys are around here

There are roughly 130 P5 + G5 FB Programs in the US, take away the 12 Schools in the Pac12 that leaves 115 other P5 & G5 Colleges (I took out the Service Academies) that have good enough FB Facilities for these guys to Transfer to and still have a shot at being an early round Draft Pick

All the P5 & G5 HCs earn at least 7 figures, and in order to keep their highly compensated Jobs they'll take a Pac12 Transfer in a NY Second if they think he can help them win Games and secure more years on his Contract

Yet you guys still post stupidity about taking scholarships and other bullshite that will never happen

This is very simple, THE PLAYERS HAVE LEVERAGE, lifelong dweebs & losers like you angry keyboard warriors will never have leverage over anything in your Life, including your GF or Wife (they're probably rationing out what little Sex you losers do get, so be thankful for that)

The mind of people that Legit control their own destiny and have some leverage over their destiny is totally different than angry nobodies like you guys

No one is taking these guys schollies, so stop getting your loser panties in a wad over nothing




I don't normally make comments regarding a person's beliefs or mental aptitude, but if you believe half of the shite you post, you are a fricking moron.

If you don't agree with someone's opinion, you immediately turn to name calling or suggesting someone is less of a person, less intelligent, less able in most any way than yourself... or a combination of all.

There's a real difference in a troll or joke compared to the bile and vitriol you spew. In short go frick yourself.

You picked the wrong Hill to die on

The OP that you are defending is a friggin idiot if he thinks the HC Coach is gonna start pulling schollies and then once the Player(s) see the "tuition bill" , then they're gonna fall in line and act right and just shut up & play ball

In fact after reading it again I'm gonna double down on my comments and call that guy a friggin' idiot once again!!

Don't you all know the definition of oppression is being on full scholarship at a university and having a chance for a free degree?

Once again... you seem to have reading comprehension issues. The "hill" I picked had to do with service to my country, my family, and community. I couldn't give a shite less what the OP or anyone else has written in this series of posts about kid and their threats.

Those comments, and these, are written directly to you and the consistently shitty vitriol you spew without effort of decent conversation. If it's not your opinion, or the opinion of a like minded person, it's immediately worthless.

It's all relative

The Players have no control over their own likeness, something everyone has, based on our Constitution

Also, the Players combined with the Coaches & Staff gross anywhere from $100 Million to $200 Million each season, grossing that much Money for each yr of your eligibility for the Athl Dept to redistribute to Money losing Sports that don't attempt to earn any money, makes that "free degree" relative

In fact grossing that much money each yr for a free degree is no longer a good deal, I recommend a strike this season to put the final nail in the College Sports coffin ,unless of course they agree to pay the Players larger stipends

Pay the players , plus NIL, plus unpunished transfers after 2 years out of HS is what is now fair, the old terms are no longer fair ENOUGH
