Iowa offered him out of HS

Mason's brother, right?

Yes

Fuck that kid.

ok is this the first such legal battle to arise? I love it. Anything to hurry the current circus to its demise is welcome

 

[Brownzy]

There was the guy at Wisconsin who ended up at Miami. Can't remember if they were threatening legal action right away or just not releasing him.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Hey just let them do commercials and make money off their name. That’s all it’ll end up being. Just a little extra spending money.

 

[Gushawk]

They deserved a much larger chunk of the value they were helping to generate, but the unfettered absence of binding and enforceable commitments is something that cannot abide for long without irreparable brand damage. IMO.

Schools are going to need to sue to enforce deals (and for tortious interference where appropriate), and courts are gonna need to issue proper remedies, both injunctive and monetary against players and schools alike.

 

[eclone]

I wouldn’t ever say not good. I was expecting all-conference play or close to it and it wasn’t that, imo.

3rd on the team in tackles and Honorable Mention All Big 10, seems like he pretty much nailed your expectation.

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

If the NCAA members were less dumb about a lot of shit (Drew Ott eligibility, keeping all of the revenue from massive TV deals while expanding schedules, etc) maybe they don’t get their asses pwn3d every time they go to court.

I do not accept or abide by the @Mr. Hawk / @Monster All-Conference standard.

2-3 more picks - or even quite a few more PBUs - and he’d have been there.

the NCAA as a source of enforceable rules is dead and I don’t think there’s any way to resuscitate it. any meaningful enforcement is going to need to be private. I’m not even sure the conferences can do much that matters anymore, at least relative to players’ rights

You idiots spent too many years telling kids who produced millions in value that they should shut up and be thankful for their full ride scholarship. It was easy to say because they had what you wanted and you wanted it bad.

 

[Hawkstrat]

"Paying college players is dumb."

*turns out, paying college players is dumb*

"Well, I bet you feel dumb now!"

Are you autistic?

Yes he is. A few others on here need to get checked for the tism as well.

I'd love to change just a couple of words on this and make it political, but out of respect for a sports related thread, I shall refrain.

The players’ sheer talent and skill is why college sports are so economically valuable. Just like how the G-League and MiLB absolutely crush the ratings and make money hand over fist.

I’m being a bit obtuse on purpose, but el oh el.

Is this your first visit to HawkeyeLounge.com?

Blaming Ivan is fun. Blaming the morons who thought full rides were good enough isn’t. Got it, retards. Carry on.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

The value lies almost entirely in the school brands. Even the kids getting fat sacks are only benefiting because of rich donors to who love the school.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

@AZmessDAWG loves a fat sack

This guy played at Missouri this year and is part of a lawsuit and countersuit because he signed a contract with Georgia in Dec 2024 and then left days later.

Those brands are more valuable to the donors when they win.

pretty sure he left missouri now too and is portaling again

You are one of the most retarded posters on here. Learn how to string a few sentences together coherently before you call anyone else retarded.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Why say many word when few word do trick?

Got him!!!!!!

Its pretty obvious that Iowa is trying to stick with players in the portal that are young with some good experience and or players at lower levels that excelled and are looking to move up in competition. Not only are they cheaper but they avoid most of the bs involved with players chasing the big pay day.

Honestly pry the best strategy for us. Guys w multiple years left and already shown they can play a bit above the HS level.

Could be a great way to develop better depth overall.

This will not be popular with New Halo, but this will almost only happen with BLACK PLAYERS.

 

[KitKatApples]

Well yea they’re usually good

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

That's not why it's happening.

 

[KitKatApples]

Oh

 

[gohawkeyes811]

Man, Stinky just really makes you think, ya know. The totally independent thinking is astounding.

 

[Thanksgiving Dinner]

I sure am eager to hear what brought him to this hypothesis

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Entringer visiting Texas Tech, Louisville, and West Virginia. Last one seems random.

He appears to be suffering from abject faggotry. Thoughts and prayers for his recovery.

Iowas trying to replace him with this guy.

 

[RiotFan]

That is an underwhelming list. Has to just be looking for a little bit more than Iowa was paying. Unreal.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I’m guessing he will at least double it.

 

[CamelTones]

2 of those schools have the money he’s looking for. West Virginia….that one doesn’t make sense. Koi Perich just visited Texas Tech as well.

 

[jquintana]

Perich committed to Texas Tech. Unless he gets a bag from Louisville, Entringer made a bad decision.
