@jonfavs@jonlovett@TVietor08@danpfeiffer Never get on this app anymore. But your treatment of the Charlie Kirk assassination was moving and very well done. Thank you.
This. 100 times this. The NCAA had years to see where this was going and enact policies to rectify it. But they were so arrogant that they didn't. All of this is the result of their hubris.
Nico Iamaleava is right to fight for every single penny he feels he deserves, & the University of Tennessee has every right to decide he isn’t worth it. The problem is that former NCAA president Mark Emmert had a chance to protect them both from being in this position. The NCAA’s failure to do the one thing it was created to do shows why leadership matters.
The NCAAs refusal to be on the right side of history has us looking at the present like “What the F*ck?”. So, who’s to tell Nico he doesn’t deserve $4 million, & who’s to say someone hasn’t already said they got it for him. So, don’t be mad at Nico or Tenn. Place the blame where it belongs… Squarely on the greedy shoulders of the NCAA.

@tracesoffaith I rarely get on here. But I say (and you know this): if you dig deep enough, you'll find a steaming mound of something in every church and every iteration of Christianity. We're all just people TRYING to find the best way to seek Christ, even through our massive imperfections.
@AechDeePixel Excessive admins. Hypocrisy in messaging, purpose. Fear of anything that might cause controversy. And excessive concerns about enrollment numbers--not because we are worried about students but worried about $$$. And the sacrifice of standards and integrity over numbers.
