I hear you, Scott. I saw that movie myself in 2021 when Jay Johnson interviewed with LSU for their HC opening while Arizona was still playing in the CWS.
I kind of understand why athletes contend that they should be able to change schools at will....the coaches do it. Right?
Well they can now. With NIL and and the other money that's out there, you could see entire teams turn over. And if a bunch of the A&M players transfer now, I think that will be the final nail in the coffin of college sports for me. I was already done with football and basketball, but now baseball is looking pretty sour to me as well. I've got a tractor to buy, so I can work on the property... and I think I'll have a LOT of free time to play around with it.
I hear you and I am leaning in the same direction, but what we’re really pissed about is that athletes are now doing the same thing coaches have always done. I guess we have been going down this road for a while. It took a long time for the players to catch on.
After a few days to reflect and see how this is all shaking out I have to say I'm glad he's gone, and Texas is welcome to him. He stole some very special moments not only from the Aggie players but also from Tennessee. They should have been on the front page all week, but instead you got a clown show in Austin taking up all the space. If half of what is being alleged is true there should be some serious repercussions, but with the "rules" as they are there will be nothing more than a "you did a bad thing" admonition, and then back to business as usual. The SEC is about to find out what kind of snake they have allowed into their fold...
kp might not like that his coach is pretty high on the list from what I heard. I think we'll hear something tomorrow, maybe Monday night. A lot of folks have interviewed...
