At some point the NCAA needs to drop the “student first, athlete second” charade.
Billions of dollars, NIL, transfer portal (free agency), traveling cross-country for midweek games…
Education is not the main focus.
Admit it and call it what it is.
A business.
Run it as such.
Tough to say goodbye but couldn’t be more proud of these 3 guys @SayAllen10@Cmp_2003@kamc_2 (missing @CJwilliams_2) Perfect ending to a great year both on & off the floor
27-5 record
