Possibly. I do still want what is best for the kids and their futures. I don't believe in any way shape or form that the direction we are headed is what's best for them. Only the elites will see the big benefits (Hey, just like society in general, what could go wrong?). College athletes are still kids (I don't care what anybody says), and there's a reason college sports have been amateur in nature for over a century.
If these coaches were not making tens of millions of dollars and jumping from job to job leaving kids behind in bad situations we would have never gotten here. Instead of trying to give players the same ability as coaches ($$$$, freedom to dump and jump whenever they please), I would have rather seen a rule that punished and restrained coaches for frequently changing jobs.
For example, a head coach must stay at least 4 years at one University or he's gotta sit out a year (unless fired of course.) And assistant coaches must stay at a job for a minimum of 2 or 3 years (again, unless fired of course) or else they gotta sit out a year. I think something like this would have toned down the ridiculous pay increases also because it would force coaches to stay places longer and possibly lose their hot commodity status. Jobs would turn over less frequently, and pay would likely be more restrained over the long-term because of it.
But no, instead let's just open the flood gates, sue the NCAA every time there's a decision made we don't like, and throw a big middle finger to the people who fund the entire operation (fans and students.) Who cares if Middle Tennessee State and the G5 become glorified junior colleges ? It's only the blue blood university's that matter anyway, right ?
Bravo.

the coaches have a buyout penalty, and now the kids don't have that. if they put buyouts in the nil or gor, this would slow everything down for kids.
I really wish we had a huge benefactor. I need to win the lottery cause my salary won't support it for sure.

First they commit $50MM towards purchasing the Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium from the City of Memphis and now this.

This goes along with where this thread is heading. Debated creating a new one. Mods, feel free to move this post.
This article gives some good detail in what the man behind the suits is pushing for and what most likely will be a settlement. How G5s fit in to it, who knows. He isn't after schools like us with a $35m athletic budget though.

Jeffrey Kessler is the lead attorney in what is shaping up to be the most revolutionary case in NCAA history.

This is big news for Memphis. Not sure if it will move the needle on conference realignment but they will definitely be able to sign some 4/5 stars.
Emannuel Mann.
If I recall correctly he came from a JUCO but didn't contribute much for us.
Probably didn't make the starting line up coming out of spring so not interested in sticking around. I have no idea how teams can build depth these days.

Emmanuel Mann haha. Yeah he came from JUCO and came off the bench to play in every game it looks like
Damn, the portal moves are more interesting to me than anything. If only there were a way that there was some type of stock exchange to "put money on" player x that somehow ties into NIL and get a return on that.
Not sure what either side will do but Tra Fluellen's younger brother entered the portal. WR/CB that redshirted at TCU his freshman year this season.
There are no new ideas on the internet. My idea on NIL returns is already a thing. MT is an option here but they don't have a current listing.

Defensive Tackle Vincent Dinkins entered the portal recently and will now reunite with Dustin Royston at Murray State
Happy to see Royston landed on his feet. Was a mistake to not retain him in my opinion.
I believe he was retained in a recruiting role. He chose to leave and go to Murray.
Correct he got an on field coaching job there. I agree that I was really hoping MTSU could’ve kept him
He was a backup receiver here last season. Caught the touchdown pass against Alabama
