IMO, it's all about the ability to enforce contracts, which protects both sides and ensures the long term viability of the sport. Most stories over the past few years have been about players bailing on contracts (Nico etc.), with little or no legal ramifications. One day it could be the other...
This is semi-pro football at this point. I say require enforceable contracts which would hold the institution and the player accountable to mutually agreed terms, I.E. you get paid XYZ for ABC years. I think players also need to unionize in some capacity to hold institutions in check.
Latest metrics are 6’3”, 215, as per Knox News. 11 Division I offers besides TN (per Hudl. All non SEC). Who knows if this is right. I do know Lausanne (Eric Gray etc,) has a great program.
Did some research. He passed by Memphis, Army, Navy, Air Force, Harvard, Yale, Columbia, APSU, UTM to name a few. 247 has his stats wrong, He’s 6’3”, 215. A steal.
