Re: Judge grants final approval to House vs. NCAA: What it means for Georgia athletics
I expect that before this month ends, there will be lawsuits from the 2015 athletes, all the way back to the 1800’s from athletes and their relatives. It’s coming…

Re: Judge grants final approval to House vs. NCAA: What it means for Georgia athletics
As Sankey said—"As the journey to modernize collegiate sports continues". If "modernization" means gutting all existing vestiges of ameteur college athletics, then let me have the old days. As I've said, I'm not against college athletes receiving a stipend while in school, but this Wild West Show will certainly get out of hand. Let's go ahead and declare the University of Texas the National Champion for the foreseeable future. Modern day Munson—"How many dollars you got Loran"?

Re: Judge grants final approval to House vs. NCAA: What it means for Georgia athletics
@JayDog....I was just wondering the same thing. This issue is so subjective when it comes to "fair market value". That's a moving target, and I see legal challenges coming immediately if Deloitte or the Commission tries to stop a deal outside the school's money. We still have no guardrails or enforceable rules set up even after this settlement which will push us closer to athletes as employees at some point. Lots of legal challenges in the courts currently about antitrust that have yet to be resolved. All of which could change the landscape more. It's a mess. This whole thing is far from resolved.
And so much for trying to move teams closer to parity with the transfer portal. It will be difficult for many schools - including some of those in the SEC - to raise the funds every season and compete with the richer programs.

Re: National media sounds off on if 2025 Georgia defense can be âeliteâ
Yes, we had three DLs drafted off of last years team. They were good players, but they were not great players. The run defense was less than stellar. It’s possible, maybe even probable, that this year’s starting DL will be better than merely good. I don’t see a drop off on the DL. I think the DL will be better this year. Of course, we’ll just have to wait and see. Plus, injuries are always a factor.
