Since the introduction of NIL and the revamping of transfer rules, colleges no longer have to recruit players to its schools, because the reality is all the top players are only interested in one thing - how much can you pay me.

I give Trump 5 stars for optics for mentioning Saban as a possible committee chair or co-chair of some commission, but the reality is even Saban is powerless to do anything. It's a good move and I'm sure it was met with applause at the UA graduation, but this is a legal issue and the courts have made it clear where they stand.

As college fans, we may have to face the reality that there is no solution and it is what it is. If there was a possible solution, don't you think it would have been taken to court by now?

There's a time to act and a time to STFU, but apparently Deion hasn't figured that out yet. The main reasons NFL teams refused to draft Sheduer was because he wasn't as good as daddy advertised, not remotely close, and the circus surrounding Sheduer wasn't worth a team risking a high draft pick on a pompous, young kid dragging its franchise down the drain.

In the beginning, it was entertaining to see Sanders run his mouth because college football had never had a major D1 program hire a ghetto coach that dripped with chains, thug sunglasses, big houses and expensive cars. We all remember Deion telling the former Colorado players to jump into the portal because he was bringing his own players and then threatening other teams with his infamous "we keeping receipts" saying.

Well, Deion, I hope you did keep the receipts because Shedeur just spent over a million dollars on a fake draft party - because there was nothing to party about - and your other son Shilo just had an 11 million dollar default judgement placed on him, so somebody has to pay the bills and since you are the only one with a stable job and you keep receipts, it only makes sense you foot the bills!

The NFL draft sent a loud message to Deion that the circus is not welcomed in the NFL and I think many college fans - particularly those in Colorado - are starting to feel the same way. At first, it was entertaining to see all the crazy antics, but entering his third year, it's time to put up or shut up. It's time for Deion to quit flapping his lips and start showing there is some substance behind all the BS he's been spouting.

Deion's antics have already cost his sons dearly, and if he doesn't change his ways, his future in college football could be over. The good news is if he doesn't change his ways, the Deion clan will be able to gather together every Sunday to watch NFL games together!

As we all know, Deion was adamant that Shedeur was the best player in the draft and was going to be selected No. 1 pick. Well, I'm no mathematician and haven't been in college for many years, but the last time I checked the numbers 1 and 144 were not equal to one another. I'm sure Deion will come up with some lame excuse, but the good news is, regardless of what he says, the video doesn't lie.

Can you imagine bringing Shedeur on and not starting him and his daddy on the news weekly complaining about everyone and everything else and lobbying for the job?

---

That's one reason I wouldn't draft him for sure. I'm just tired of the whole Deion clan. You have daddy who uses God when it's convenient, but tells the former Colorado players to pack their bags and hit the portal because he's bringing in his own guys.

Then you have his thug son Shilo have an $11M judgement against him, files for bankruptcy and show's up yesterday at Sheduer's draft party with a couple of hundred thousand dollars worth of gold chains and rings on him.

And, of course, Sheduer shows up with a massive diamond chain with a huge diamond S made of all diamond hanging from his neck, along with clothing with dollars signs all over it!

Sounds like an antitrust violation. The DoJ has stepped up wage-fixing prosecutions lately, and just got a criminal conviction DOJ

So judging from your response, it sounds like it is what it is and there's not a whole lot college football can do about it. That's depressing!

With so many players demanding money, can colleges backload NIL contracts, which would lower the financial risk for schools and also slow players from jumping in and out of the transfer portal because their biggest payout is at the end of their NIL deal?

There was a day when my world revolved around Saturday football from before dawn till after midnight. Today it sits at the bottom of my priority list right below cutting grass.

---

Five years ago, I followed recruiting daily and National Signing Day was like a major holiday, but I could less now. Also, I no longer have any interest in going to LSU games because there's such a disconnect with the players coming and going that I can easily find other things to occupy my time. It's sad, but true!

quote:

---

College football has never been more popular.

Never said it wasn't popular, but the reality is all good things eventually come to an end. NIL/TP will eventually run fans away because when there is no loyalty by the players, fan interest will also wane.

No stadium is going to be empty in 5 years. Calm down lil bro.

Believe what you want, but the reality is LSU is just as vulnerable as any other program out there. LSU have lots of money, but boosters are only going to give so much money once a few high prized players turn out to be duds, a few transfer out or LSU has a couple of bad seasons and fans find better ways to spend their money.

No program is immune to the insanity that is occurring in college athletics!
