Disappointing career so far after he had a ton of hype in HS. Can’t be that small and not be a good shooter.

That sounds stupid. Especially considering he didn’t say anything about having a draft opt out
Buy your way out or put it in your contract. Every contract will look different. You nice like that sign a one year deal. Not saying im 100% down with this but the portal needs some type of regulation

How would yall fix the portal?

Nothing to fix

Right, the courts said restricting player movement is illegal. They are not employees of the schools and are students :manny:



The only way the NCAA can "fix the portal" is to make them employees and give them contracts or a collective bargaining agreement with the student-athletes, and create a CBA for college sports.

Which they refused to do because then they would one have to share revenue and two probably have to centralize the conferences so that all players are getting a fair share.
