@fordyce_hog @ethanblakley @cmb_wps @JakeBequette91 Thanks for posting this. Where can we find this info? It’s be cool to compare them to other SEC programs.

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@SimiHughJaynus @CoachStokowski @LNehls5 @RossDellenger Yeah. Their fans are not the only schools that don’t realize things have changed in a big, bad way. Pretty sure school officials know what they’re up against.

@Glenili_ I think the problem is that professional athletes have too much autonomy. Amateur athletes are totally dependent on their benefactors — otherwise known as boosters, ADs and college coaches.
Just sayin…

@RossDellenger *Not valid in Texas 😄

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@GeoffGrammer 🤔

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@jolinegkg @CurtisHouck @brianstelter Not to mention CBS Sunday Morning.

@baecontacoh @KevsBackup Hey, some people just ain’t happy unless they’re being performative … IJS 😄

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@stevemarusich Sure. But that doesn’t even make him the first hypocrite in college sports. Or the best.

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@BudElliott3 I don’t doubt that CFB will get to $100 mil rosters. But I DO doubt that $100 mil rosters are sustainable over the long run. IJS

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@CoachStokowski @SimiHughJaynus @LNehls5 @RossDellenger Not exactly. Before there was the illusion that non-legacy schools could make “the big time.” 😄

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@JWMediaDC Same as it ever was…

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@ShehanJeyarajah @byBDavis 🎯

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@WinterSportsLaw Doesn’t taking money away from them make it more likely that athletes won’t sign on to this plan? Asking for a friend… 🤔

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@SimiHughJaynus @LNehls5 @CoachStokowski @RossDellenger 😬

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@38Godfrey @tedcruz @CodyC64 Is it because he’s a lying liar? Cuz it seems like that’s been his problem ever since he first ran for the Senate.

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@sully7777 Really? It seems like Texas Tech is making the system work for them. They’re not an outlier. Even if people look at them like they are.

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@iowahawkblog Yeah… I think you might be underestimating frat boys and their desire to be paid for their time. 😄

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@sstaedtler8787 @TheChadWithrow Nah. The government MIGHT have control. But it’s not a proven fact yet. Let’s wait until a law is passed and signed before we get all weirded out.

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@chatham58 That’s nothing compared to the CFB Stans who are out in these streets capping for their beloved coaches and placing all the blame on the players for cashing in on a system they didn’t create and have no control over. 😄

[Kenn Rodriguez @KRod_505]

@LNehls5 @CoachStokowski @RossDellenger “Boosters, Rev sharing from ADs” = The Universities.

The colleges could end the “player shenanigans” in a hot minute if they wanted to. Just stop paying them.

They control the system. Blaming the players is like someone blaming the muffler for the car accident happening. 😄
