Last few years have been slow....wish he had finished on top, sure he tried. Did great things at Alabama over the years, no one can say otherwise.He realizes he can’t compete anymore when the good players can go other places and make more money. He isn’t stupid.
I don't know what kind of drugs this cat is on but his wild fantasies about the vols are quite entertaining....Ya'll have 6 NC's...last being in 98. Sit down while grown folks are talking.

Yes and no. I always envisioned player compensation as a stipend that would be equal across the board to all team members not a free agent marketplace where players are going to the highest bidder. It ruined the whole sense of school pride and loyalty imo.For as long as I can remember people complained about the NCAA and how they had too many rules against players transferring and accepting money. Now that those rules have been relaxed people are complaining how the transfer portals and NIL are ruining the game.

My argument is that some players on the team do more work than others because they are starters whereas many on the team see very little time and are on the sidelines. Some argue that a free education is stipend enough. I used to be in that mindset but have backed off on that. I also feel for the walk-ons or partial scholarship guys who have to shell out money for tuition/room/board but not everyone can be as good as others and it's a tough pill to swallow but it's life.Yes and no.

The portal is similar. While well intentioned, the free use of it in combination with NIL “bidding” made it a free for all. There should be some common sense rules but I understand there are a lot of nuances that are difficult to attach hard guidelines to(coach changes, playing time, recruiting better players, etc.).
The one thing about the previous system is it forced players to make a conscious decision and then live with their actions for better or worse.
