2025 recruiting....

Northwestern University I believe had the lawsuit for athletes to be considered employees of the university. Is that something NCAA or is that something each individual college could do if they wanted?

Maybe all the "blue blood programs have a league of there own" and pay the players. Colleges basically become the G-league.

College baseball and MLB had it correct all along. Stay 3 years if you decide to come to school, or go pro from high school. Again reform the transfer portal!

NCAA has March Madness, and the college football playoffs. Once the courts and legislators rule on lawsuits, and make laws. I just think it is obvious college sports is almost done.
How would you decide who the Blue Blood programs are…Also I don’t believe the NCAA has anything to do with the College Football Playoffs…

How? Who knows just making a point, what would happen if a certain amount of schools decided to pay for there own personal team, and just pay them like they do there administration?

NCAA, I am pretty sure is a big part of allowing college athletes to play extra games.

They are already in the process. That is what the mega conferences are for. The cap is set from the average of those big boys. Top tier, top pay.

NCAA only has the basketball tournament. The big money is in football, and only getting bigger. That's why I think it's just a matter of time until the now big 4 conferences get together to create their own entity.

That’s what I thought about Football…The NCAA has only March Madness…They do have FCS playoffs but the FBS or College Football Playoff is a thing by itself and the NCAA recognizes who they award as champion…

Also do you think it will be a Big 4…I am thinking a Big 2 Conferences…Meaning teams in the ACC and Big 12 will either move up and join the BIG and SEC and the rest will drop down and play at the FCS level….Or do away with Football all together and a lot of other sports that lose money…
 
Do ya know what that is called? That is called, I saw what I wanted and I better move quick because there are others that the school is looking at for my role, maybe I need to take it now or risk someone else beating me to it. When you see them start cancelling visits they have found what they were looking for and many times they found int on the last visit they were on. Mullins is set to visit us in the next few days, Dixon may feeling the heat of that visit.
 
I'm wondering how the relationship is between Dixon and Witherspoon. Both from D.C., both combo guards. Spoon already committed to Pitt. Do they like playing together, or is it a too similar game negative aspect?

Pitt is recruiting them to play together.
 
Good chance that Capel will be gone after this year unless they win…Pitt just fired the current AD…

He is 46-23 overall and 26-14 in conference over the last 2 seasons. He could move on if he was inclined to do so but he's not in any danger of getting fired. He just signed an extension in July.

Did they make the NCAA Tournament the last 2 years…don’t keep up with Pitt
 
Seems to be our problem these bidding wars and we are losing them in FB and BB way too much
Don’t know about Football as Mack and company have pretty much changed the whole approach but everything I have read and heard about Coach Davis and staff is they have a set number for a player and they don’t budge off that number..Meaning they are not getting into bidding wars…We will see how that works moving forward…
 
Vols increase ticket prices

Looks like the slippery slope just got a bit steeper.
In the article….


Tennessee is experiencing its best stretch of on-field success in all sports in decades. The baseball team won its first national championship in June, and Tennessee became the first school in SEC history to win a conference championship in men's basketball, baseball and softball in the same year. The men's basketball team made just its second Elite Eight appearance in school history in March, and the football team is ranked No. 6 this week in the AP poll.


The Vols are playing the game right now better than anyone else…

Wow.... Is it really worth it anymore to root for college sports. Can't recruit without giving a kid a million for a season that they probably will not even average 20 pts a game.

You develop a kid for a year or two and expect him/her to be ready to contribute, but they just transfer and play somewhere else.

I wish UNC basketball would just pay each player 100k, get the best coaches, and go from there. No need playing games with recruiting anymore
 
Love the natural physical gifts of Mr. Mullins. I really love the attitude, motor, and team first attitude! The kid is a throwback and would absolutely thrive at UNC! Dixon is a swiss army knife type who is savvy and skilled too. He has grit and a killer will! Both seem tailor-made to be Family!

A part of Mullins observation while watching the boys practice, HD kept stressing he wants to he the fastest team in the country this year. That was music to my ears.
Considering we're going to have to play a lot of small ball to get our most talented players on the floor together (Cadeau, Davis, Jackson, Trimble, Powell, Tyson) we better be trying to run as much as possible.
