@JoeKania3 Just gotta say, as a gym rat who helped roll out mats in the mid-70's, it's funny/ironic/interesting that the process hasn't changed in 50 years. Still taping! Great work and best to all the competitors!
@TigercoachJoeyD 79 D1 schools wrestle. 14 are in the B1G. That's 17.7%. 330 wrestlers are in the NCAA championships. 95 from the B1G. That's 28.8%. Sure, that's more than an equal distribution, but it's a long way from egregious. Talk to me when it's 60%.
@CFBHeather Yeah, sucks when the courts say you've been screwing kids over for decades, doesn't it? Cue Wilford Brimley: "It ain't legal. And worse than that, by God, it ain't right."
@Clowfb If you couldn't look for a new job until you quit your old one, don't you think maybe you might have a tough time finding one? Get rid of all contact rules. Kids and coaches should be able to talk at any time.
@RonDeSantis Sir, I left Florida 25 years ago, and although I support your positions on many things, as a parent of 2 former D1 athletes, Coach Saban is wrong. The system is not only sustainable, it is, A) at least partly legal now, and B) beneficial to the student-athletes. Do not meddle. TY
@LandonTengwall I'd disagree with the premise - education isn't dead. Simply because kids want different things from their college experience doesn't mean we should restrict them from what they want. Like anything, some do great, some not so much, most fall in the middle.
@slmandel Simple fix: the NCAA actually does what it's supposed to do and requires that to be a D1 FBS school you must maintain at least 30 varsity sports. Boom. Keep the gov't out of college sports.
@CodyC64@SenatorCantwell@Eric_Schmitt Yeah. The "sky is falling" BS is just hilarious. The fix is simple: Have the NCAA require that to be a D1 FBS school you have to maintain a minimum of 30 varsity sports. Keep the gov't out of college sports!
