Ain't nothing compared to Mia Scott. Made every possible play. Reminds me of Kobe 2001. -

I'm thinking 1987 might have been the greatest year in the history of Western civilization. -

Wow, they’re really rolling out the shag carpet. I guess this is just what recruiting looks like in the we-still-have-to-pay-for-Jimbo era. -
I believe I have kinda touched on this before, but I want to thank all of you (Bobby, Gerry, Rod, CJ, Blake and Jeff Howe) hope didn’t miss anyone, for the weekend update shows. It’s awesome, especially during the height of the recruiting season to be able to celebrate these commitments by watching live updates. We can always get that information here, however getting to have a discussion on a live about it shortly after it happens is awesome. Thanks again and Hook’em. 🤘

Who is Clark working on?? -
It should be noted that players in sports that don't generate positive revenue won't have a legal leg to stand on in court. The whole premise of this is that schools are making a ton of money and refusing to compensate those who generate the money. If the sport doesn't generate positive revenue, there's no money to share. That's the cost of removing the veil of amateurism.

You know the clearing house stuff won't hold up in court, but there is a good chance the revenue share component won't hold up either. The way this is being set up by the schools is to have players sign "publicity rights" waivers in exchange for some money. If a player can prove that such a waiver is financially limiting, the rights waiver will be struck down also. The rights are inalienable. Again, it will be individual players that sue, not the schools. Then why did the judge agree? The judge agreed because she doesn't care how stupid the schools are. It's not her job to make sure they can't be held accountable in the future. Without an employment agreement there is no legally tight way to establish the limit. I've read a couple of legal assessments that argue the NCAA is intentionally setting this up so they can stoke public discontent and get Congress to grant an anti-trust exemption. You can't have an anti-trust exemption without an employment agreement, so that's a wash at best. They could've already taken the employment road and truly "settled" the issue, but they're stubbornly resisting that outcome.
