BASEBALL Roster Turnover

C
The Blue Raiders didn’t have the season it wanted, finishing 23-32 (8-19 in conference) and missing the CUSA Tournament.

However, I’m told there’s expected to be minimal roster turnover. I would expect the entire outfield and infield (aside from Eston Snider) to return.

The only question marks are on starting pitchers Drew Horn and Trace Phillips. They both have decent draft stock, but from what I’ve heard, Horn is likely to return.

Phillips could go pro, but after an up-and-down season and some injury concerns, he could also return.

Several states have similar bills.

WV's governor signed our two a few weeks ago. Rich Rod and Wren Baker both testified to the legislature pushing for them. One prohibits "any athletic association," meaning the NCAA or the CSC, from punishing WV schools or athletes for violating national rules.
The second bill allows schools to create a non-profit and pay athletes themselves with records allowed to be kept from public oversight, making them exempt from disclosure laws. Meaning they don't have to follow the clearing house in the settlement.

Same as for UT, why on earth would you sign the document going around by the CSC giving up those protections?

I mean, a quick search shows TN, WV, OK, NY, TX, VA, MO, AR all have laws that schools cannot be punished. No wonder that CSC doc is going over like a lead balloon. And no A4 conference is going to kick out multiple schools.

They will create their own league very soon, and set there rules. The SEC and BIG10 aren't going to concede power and let the ACC and Big12 catch up and the G6. Didn't some money people approach the big 2 about starting their own leagues anyway? Do they really need the NCAA?

Yep. And this is why UT worked with the state legislature to create Bill 536.

There are two ways and two only out of all of these lawsuits.
1. Negotiating with the athletes under a CBA, which means making them employees
2. Federal anti-trust exemption for the NCAA.

Without one of those things, it will be lawsuit after lawsuit, especially after (if) the House settlement is approved. Lawyers are already posting on socials about suits that will be filed immediately after.

This crap will go on for years without one of those two things happening, and I don't see either happening anytime soon.
