We need to do a better job explaining to these kids what the word “commitment” means. Also might be good to tell ‘em if they aren’t 100% “committed” don’t say you’re “committed” to any school until you are 100% “committed.” Because if you are not 100% “committed” you aren’t “committed” by definition of the word “committed.”
Of course, a better solution to the current crap shoot is to treat these kids as contract employees. Do away with a “signing period” and have ‘em sign a contract with a liquidated damages clause requiring a “buy-out” amount if they breach the contract. Some folks always like to point out that coaches can leave so why get upset when a player leaves. While the analogy isn’t a perfect one for fairly obvious reasons, at least coaches, or their new employers/school, have to pay the buy-out amount when a coach leaves before his contract has expired. Why not have the same arrangement for players and recruits in this NIL age?
Yes, it’s a sad day when lying is defended by the culture, but that’s where we are. Therefore, we need safeguards in place to combat the moral decay of our current society. A man’s word used to be his bond. Today, one’s word is meaningless to these recruits. That’s why written contracts should be the norm. Make them or the new school pay the price to the school they first contracted with.
