All you friends of @CompetitiveAg , that account was hacked. @X will not return control to me. No help at all. This will be the new home of all the content that was previously on that site. Give us a follow.
Ok “dude”. I didn’t mention any of that. I just point at the obvious that if and but make for fun opining. To date, TTU hasn’t broken a single rule. Not even the court filing suggests that. The rest is just uninformed opinion about what may be. I personally don’t want him to play. But I don’t make those decisions.
It isn’t over. They haven’t said a thing. They are clearly creating multiple avenues. As for what TTU wants…they want what all programs want. To win. You’re from Alabama. I was in the SEC for 13 years. Every single program in the US has made questionable decisions that were clearly driven by winning. What you suggest is fine with me though.
Maybe. Maybe not. Not a far leap to say the next suit is against Tech since the NCAA was enjoined and the NCAA rules were the basis for his removal. But angels and pins. Once he was ruled eligible TTU was contractually obligated to pay him at least for now. Won’t bother trying to explain access to facilities, counseling, etc. if you aren’t a player, etc. It’s a mess and I wish it was as easy as saying he’s gone. It’s not. Good day.
TTU removed him from the team pursuant to NCAA rules. The court overruled and enjoined the NCAA. So he’s back on the team. That’s how that works. I get you don’t like it. That’s fine. I don’t like it either. Tech is in a bad situation that requires a lot of navigating and deliberating. It’s easy for everyone to say “just say he isn’t playing” but I know there are a lot of legal issues that have to be resolved. For now, TTU is complying with the order and is not in non compliance with league or NCAA rules. NIL, families, and now courts all play a role. In the old days, you could just kick the kid to the curb. That’s not how it works now.
And what was their position? That they were getting him help and implementing plans of oversight? Again you can’t name anything they have done wrong. Not one single thing. And the fact that you bring up Baylor where the admin were actively covering crimes tells me all I need to know about you which is you know nothing. Good day.
The court said that had to be reinstated with an eligibility hearing set next year. De facto eligible. Texas Tech reinstated him as required by the court order. You are correct that it doesn’t bind them to play him. But it does bind them to pay him until the court rules on eligibility. I prefer they get him help, let him work out, and never step on a field. But that’s not my decision to make.
They are bound to pay him…if he is eligible. For me, I’d prefer he spend the year training and in therapy and never suit up. I think the NCAA should sanction Cincy to buy out part or all of his contract. And then he never plays college ball again. But that’s way above my pay grade.
Culpability for what? He hasn’t played a down. When identified he was placed in an in patient rehab. He was sanctioned two games by a court. He has been assigned financial oversight. So culpable for what? If and until he plays, Tech has complied with every rule and oversight guidelines by the NCAA. But you’re going to conclude whatever you will. Good day.
Who’s enabling illegal gambling? Why have no charges been filed? That would solve a lot of issues. I’ll repeat again…name one single rule where Tech is institutionally non compliant. You can’t of course, which is why you keep moving goal posts. Take the L and move on to another topic.
@TrekDocFan@EdLawDude Doctor to you. There is a process. It will unfold. Tech will comply. None of that changes that you are factually incorrect and bounce for post to post spewing incorrect information…doctor.
