Few possible football transfers

A familiar face is now in the portal. Reed initially recanted his name from the NCAA Transfer Portal but is now back in it. He chose Auburn over notable offers from Georgia, LSU, Notre Dame, Kentucky, TCU, West Virginia, Ole Miss and Colorado, among others back in 2020.


MTSU transfer Quincy Riley 
=18pxThe All-CUSA First Team selection last year was offered in Feb by OM. I think he has committed to OM, but we will see if he keeps it thru the semester. 3 years left

Re: Few possible football transfers

It's gotta be rough to be a college coach these days with having to handle all of the transfers. Normally, they'd get a break and know what their roster would be - but now it's recruiting 24/7.

Re: Few possible football transfers

The transfers can be here today and gone tomorrow.  Surely this is a limit to the number of transfers someone can do.

The NCAA has created a crap storm of chaos.

Re: Few possible football transfers

The players started this and the leach attorney's that led them down this path.  The NCAA had no choice but to let them earn money and the Supreme Court even told them basically, if you dont loosen up, we will just blow you up. So instead of getting blown up, the NCAA said, have at. Transfer free of penalty one time.

Now you had 3000+ players enter the portal under this misguided advice that the grass was greener. 2000+ have now lost a spot they were at and dont have a place to go.  The NCAA is now trying to help by having "portal camps" late this spring in Virginia and Nevada to try and help some of there sheep find a spot.
The majority of these 2000 will never step foot on a college campus again and never get a degree. In the vast majority of those cases if they would have stayed where they were , even if they have very slim playing time, they would have gotten 4-5 years in free college with tutoring and in most schools these days they go ahead and pay for the rest of their degree no matter how long it takes as long at the player/former player is making his graded and advancement to their degree.


These guys not only get room, board, tuition, laundry, cost of living, when I say board, the have 24 hour 7 day a week access to food, then have nutrition centers at the football facility of not it's own facilities that they can get snacks, shakes, etc 24/7.
That cost of living check is not just $100 a month, etc like some think. It's $400-$600 on average.

So Books, tuition, room--Whatever price you want to put on that
FOOD-24-7 meal plan. Not HS cafeteria food, stuff they have pro chefs and dieticians prepare also can use that meal plan to get food at the many fast food places on campus
Nutrition Center access 24-7. If you have never been to once on one of these campuses for athletes, if would blow your mind. Fresh fruit, smoothies, shakes, nutrition bars, gatorade, all kinds of snacks and food.
Access to laundry, machines and detergent. Out of pocket, that would add up.
Cost of attended is AFTER all this.  You have NOTHING you have to pay for, NOTHING and still get $400-$600 a month, minimum  

( this of course does not include any NIL money, but that is probably only 20-25 guys on the team)


But these lawyers, friends, family, society keep making these guys think they are being taken advantage of.

They have a job, they get compensated.

They havent paid 1 penny in infrastructure, facilities, equipment, etc


Just like if you work for a company, what they make in profits is not your concern. They compensation is there, if you do not want to work for that, DONT.



I have a tons of issues with the NCAA, but these issues were not of their making.  I think they finally thru their hands up, knowing this would happen and now everyone from players, lawyers, schools, coaches are screaming somethings has to be done to stop this insanity to help "protect" these players from themselves. Now they want the NCAA to do something about it..

Funny how the worm turns

These are facts that the players often forget and do not consider.  They have their greedy eyes on pastures that seem greened and the vision of getting a big dollar pro contract.  Getting a free education is secondary and not really realized by them as a benefit.  In addition, the connections they make with alumni can often lead to lucrative jobs and good references.  You give them a little bit and they just want more, more, more!!!
