Anyone else hearing this?

Can we do the same?

Do you think that these kids go to class or care about education. They are brought on to play ball, not to go to class

Grades don’t matter anymore. Total bs.

It would be awkward if Nico and Joey wind up in the same basket weaving class together

I don’t know if it’s true or not. But we need him here as soon as possible

May not matter. He's taking online classes at Appy St and could get here in May according to Lowe.

I hope so.

Me too. Need him throwing to the WR's soon as possible. I'm sure he's already got the playbook.

 

[orangemadam]

When is the last time a player, any player, was ruled academically ineligible?

We use to have to hold our breath over the holidays before the bowl game, hoping everybody stayed eligible. Hopefully he is studying the UT playbook more than his textbooks.

Players call the shots now. Won’t be necessary to even be enrolled soon

Not buying this.

Or this.

The NCAA (which means the universities, collectively) completely lost control of amateurism. But they haven't lost, no one has even mentioned trying to take it from them, the student-athlete requirement.

To play for a college, you have to be in college. To be in college, you have to take a certain number of courses and hold a certain grade point average.

Nothing in all the NIL upheaval has even come close to touching any of that. And if you think the colleges and universities are just gonna give it up, think again.

Unlike amateurism, this truly does go to the core of the universities' reason for existence.

Go Vols!

Dude your so wrong, most do go to class and do well. Them are the facts. Everyone blankets all players of only caring about money. But most players go to class and take it serious. You are so wrong. GBO

Skool? Who cares about stinking skool?

Can the man sling the pigskin and make an informed decision when large angry men with bad intentions are bearing down on him? That's all that really matters.
