Same number of NCAA champs in the last three years. Fewer number of injuries.

That is kinda my point. There is no data. There are a bunch of people quoting and re-quoting a bunch of numbers they heard someone made up one time. Perhaps we should change the thread title to wholly crap.

NCAA athletes are also banned from betting on any professional sport where the NCAA holds a championship.

I giggled when I read this.

1. Where does the money go? Presumably there is an initial offering and the athlete gets the proceeds. But what about future transactions? That is swapped between investors? And then the athlete has to go where they say? Surely you are not talking about buying and selling human beings. 2. Ignoring the legal implications of the above, why would I buy in the initial offering if I was not sure a majority of buyers were also voting to send the athlete to the same school as me? 3. What happens to my stock in 4/5 years? It will always trend to zero as eligibility winds down. When does that begin? After three years? Two? 4. Why would a stock be performance based? Combining boosterism with "fractional stock investing" insures it won't. If an athlete performs well it will be virtually impossible to get a majority to sell. Without a majority sale there would be no buyers, especially as the affects of the prior question kick in. 5. Other stuff I haven't thought of this early.

I originally thought this is an underaged gambling case that also winds up being an NCAA violation, though for different reasons. In Iowa sports betting was made legal for anyone 21 and older in 2019, per The Athletic. They also report that the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission began the investigation. But the presence of one employee and several former student-athletes makes me wonder what the underlying problem really is.

Why?

I asked ChatGPT to rewrite your post in a coherent style. While it's true that ChatGPT can construct more coherent sentences than Kamala Harris, its abilities go beyond that. ChatGPT can also perform the circular dance that Harris does every day, hour, and minute. Additionally, it has the capacity to identify the root causes of any issue, a crucial step in finding solutions every minute of every hour of every day. By consistently uncovering underlying problems, ChatGPT can be an invaluable tool in problem-solving and decision-making.

Are you aware of any NIL arrangements where the collective is both set up as a charity and a student athlete is paid $50,000 to show up at a charity event?

I want to thank the University of Minnesota for making it clear why NIL, and free transfers are so needed.

Did no one read the Tweet? Satrocci/Griffith is listed at 174.

You were in my wheelhouse. Elvis, The Clash, The Who, John Hiatt, The Replacements, Paul Westerberg, Steve Earle, Lucinda Williams ...These are my people.

Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking when I hear the silly things that you say.

Why do people have such nostalgia for when athletes were chattel?

Did someone activate the bat signal?

For me out back would be Iowa. So let's say CHA. After he gets done spladling Sammy Brooks he dons the mascaras for @El Luchador's Texas wrestling tutorial.

Bo Nickal is waiting out back to have a "word"

Now I will make a prediction. He WILL do something stupid and maybe get himself arrested. But I also think that is his morning mantra.

I see it. Not only did he pin a ton of guys, he pinned the toughest guys among two and three timers (Spencer Lee would be second at an average rank of 50). And your right, a 1 point lose to a 3xer puts him in rarified air for 2xers.

His NIL/agent/rep company-thing has him listed under WWE. https://roster.1str.com/?section=featured
