in school in my opinion. That entire North Carolina starting lineup would
have entered the draft if NIL didn’t exist.

Bacot stock is high as hell. He is a junior and a double/double machine, and he
is returning. The NBA can wait because he is able to make money at NC, and
continue to go after a NCAA championship.

They just need to polish or reform the rule, where stuff like this can’t happen.
He is basically threatening the university, which has nothing to do with his NIL
deals. That is something that players achieve on their own through their agents,
friends, and families. So if he isn’t generating the revenue that some of his teammates
are generating, then that something he needs to take up with his management team,
not with the university.

The transfer portal should be for special situations, such as coaching changes,
,school violations, injuries, pandemics, and natural disasters. The one-time transfer
rule is bullshit. Simply allowing a player to transfer because he is unhappy due to personal reasons should not be permitted.

The problem isn’t the schools or the NCAA anymore. The business side of it all
is now the issue, where players now have to deal with agents, managers, and
financial advisors. That’s where it’s going to get really ugly.

And allowing schools to offer contracts to student athletes would be disastrous and
and make things worse. Players would threaten to sit out of games if their contracts aren’t improved or renegotiated.

The NIL is a good rule, because the NCAA is still able to administer
and manage college sports, and college athletes don’t have to starve or
violate NCAA rules to make money for themselves or families while being
committed to a college to play sports. It’s a win-win situation for all parties
involved. The rule just needs to be refined.
