If this basketball thing doesn't work out for him he could sell real estate, Bentleys or whatever he wants. That was almost good enough to get me to go ahead and buy MBB tickets for next year. Almost.

nobody should be harassing anybody, but I don't think it is wrong for fans to expect or want some loyalty to their university/team.

All of us want/hope for them to have loyalty to the university, but to expect that in these wild times is fools' gold. It's a brave new world in college athletics .....

Easiest way to fix all of this Defund all NILS. If the NCAA wants to share revenue it should come from the TV contracts, ticket sales, conference revenues, and merchandise sales for each team split equally.  You can go  minor leagues/semipro or college route. Not both. The XFL, CFL, and other minor leagues  are always ready to pay you. The difference is you got to earn it on the field and do your job 100%.

He reads the internet. USF fans have been incredibly down following the news of the transfers. He isn't blind, and he is engaged with us more than any coach I can remember. He cares. 

They all care until they get a power conference offer.

It's not college athletics anymore.   So stop giving them college scholarships to play

It's still college athletics but it's apparently no longer amateur athletics for a good number of them ...

They are probably used to it, but it's classless as fans to harass players who decide to leave.  I think some feel just because they are a fan, buy a ticket or attended the same school that they are owed some kind of loyalty by these players.  

Then I can only guess they shouldn't expect me to contribute to NIL.  Situation is changing in college athletics. If, under the old guard, a kid left to go to a better school or to get more playing time I'm in total agreement with you. Now that I'm paying into NIL I feel differently.

He knows something we don’t I’m sure he has someone committing soon more then likely his nephew.If that’s the case we can relax.

I still think if we get one really good shooter that can drive we will be better next year. 

We already have two that you have not seen play yet in Brown and Jennings. Like I said, I feel better with Reynolds, Jennings, and Brown than I did with CY, Pryor, and Miguel.
