Obviously the games played out entirely different but we’re gonna look back and talk about how terrible that Clemson team was too. We however handled business and OM was in a fight till the end

Be honest, if the roles were reversed with a number of SEC schools this board would be acting my kid on Christmas morning. There is nothing shocking about it.

That’s because most attorneys on the board probably know that there is not enough public info available to really get into the weeds. I’m an attorney but have zero experience in this area of law, have never actually read the SEC bylaws, nor am privy to the info that hasn’t been disclosed to the public yet. With that said I have doubts about filing a suit in federal court with ongoing litigation over the same issue in state court with no final order from the State courts and also the fact that the rules the SEC seem to be concerned with “being enforced” haven’t been broken yet. I say all that with the qualification that I don’t know the shite I just said I don’t know

Edited to also add that the percentage of attorneys that actually deal in contract law of this magnitude or sports law is very small percentage of the overall attorney population

There’s a difference in having a mental illness and being criminally insane. The State is arguing she may have been depressed but that doesn’t remove criminal liability or mean that she’s criminally insane

My neighborhood already has cameras throughout it on the roads. Secondly, I’m not advocating for placing cameras to directly view into people homes as that would present constitutional issues at least in some cases. You can keep moving the goalposts if you wish but my original statement remains true: there is not constitutional issue with placing government cameras to monitor public roadways .

There are already exceptions to FOIA requests that shield law enforcement information in nearly every jurisdiction in the country.

There are also logs of every single plate ran by a cop in the offices CAD system. This is no different.

I’ll share your outrage when they put these cameras in private areas.

All I have to add to this is I bought my first house in 2019, sold it 15 months later when we relocated for my job, made 30k off what I paid for it (it was a starter home we paid around 200k) for, and the current house we bought in 2020 at a 3.1% interest rate has risen over 100+k off what I paid for it since based on what similar houses are selling for in my neighborhood. I used a first time buyers down payment assistance program on the first home and have accumulated approximately 150k in equity in homeownership between both homes despite paying only the monthly payment on homes since 2019.

I say all that to say there are still opportunities out there if you buy smart although I doubt we ever see interest rates in the 2-3 range again.

Exactly my point...You think even 50% of these situations, the parents or legal guardians are equipped with the experience and knowledge to navigate these situations responsibly and not get taking advantage of?

It doesn’t matter what I think. It matters what’s legal. Parents been able to co-sign contracts for kids for as long as there have been age restrictions on entering contracts. Adults for that matter are often times idiots and still able to enter into contracts, hence a 18/19 year old taking out 250k in student loans for a degree in gender studies and then bitch when they realize they’ll never be able to pay it back. Myself and most people would tell that 19 year old tough shite you entered into the contract now you’re responsible for it.

You’re not going make me feel sorry for a 16 year old getting paid millions cause he’s good at football.

that time the US wasn't in it and it was getting beat by the NBA draft lmao

I know you’re trolling but when the US draws 27.5M viewers it’s makes you look like an idiot to suggest women’s basketball is more popular when nearly 20 times more people watch the US in the WC, which was the topic of discussion when you made that idiotic statement.

[quote]Thank you, thats crazy thats allowed. He hasn't even graduated high school yet. If an entity wants to pay a high schooler to do name, image and likeness thats fine but it shouldn't have any ties to a college until that player is officially signed and eligible to play with that institution. A 16 year old kid getting financially and legally locked in to a school and it being contractually leveraged against them should be illegal just on principle alone.[/

You seem to think these kids are just making these decisions alone after being prayed upon by agents and schools. No state lets a minor enter into a contract unless there is parental consent (and yes I know this doesn’t amount to much in many cases where moma/daddy want the money too), court approval, or a legal emancipation (which is another form of court approval). A 16 year old can’t buy a car, rent an apartment, marry or even post bail without one of those things happening because they are all forms of Ks. Most states the age of majority is 18 but MS where I am it’s 21.
