Quote from: animal on Apr 29, 2024, 08:28 PMI agree Cal will be motivated. Kids making a decent chunk of money but aren't overly obligated to give any fucks is going to be a variable every school will contend with from now on. So it'll be like a box of chocolates.

 

Coaches have led the way for several decades on bailing on schools and players for the better gig. No one is loyal except the fans, and even they burn jerseys. I've always said it should be the same way for players. Whether you allow it, or dont, the rules should be the same or similar for coaches and players.

I do understand that coaches have multi-year deals with buyouts, and the NIL is a 1-year contract without a buyout, so it's not exactly the same. I am a fan however of players having more mobility just like coaches have always had.

Cam Boozer (Carlos' kid) is supposedly a target for the Hogs. Don't know if we have a shot.

I'm assuming it is because he is a "Big".

The Lord wants you to put your foot on their balls and believe in it. 'Cuz that's what wins football games. Not jumping offsides like a bunch of wimps and faggots. I don't care what those pinkos over in Russia say. You want to be a loser? You go live in Russia. I'm a winner. I'm an American.

Surely the Hunt family chips in just on the name.

So we're going to have the most loaded team in program history.

I can't wait to see how we screw this up.

We haven't had a good gambling scandal, so that's an option.

The same way most of cals teams do it. In the tournament.

I think we will have a very talented 8-9 and the rest for thise Cal feels can develop.

Two very intriguing 4's hit the portal today. Coleman Hawkins from IL and Toppin from NM. Hawkins will be highly sought after. Toppin would be a sophomore.

It's all about motivation. How do you get players, who make tens of millions every year, to even want to extend their season by making the playoffs? The ring. It's the one thing they can't buy.

College is different. Most of Cal's players have been one and done. Motivation to do what's necessary to win games just doesn't mean as much, if anything at all. Perhaps that's how lesser teams, on paper, do so well in the tournament these days. 
I'm sorry Elvis......for all of it.

He may be worth it. Kid can play.

Deal worth north of $1 million.   Expected to sign.  Damn, Cal is killing the portal with Chicken Man's money.  I think Cal is pissed and hears all the he's washed up talk and is out to prove shit.
