So why is Proctor coming back? Did he forget something in his locker?
Apparently, he wouldn't be transferring back if the staff didn't want him back. So it sounds like they think they can use him.So why is Proctor coming back? Did he forget something in his locker?
Why cannot specific NIL contracts be tied to the school? For example, why cannot some Iowa company has an NIL contract with Proctor, that has a statement “this contract is valid only if Proctor is enrolled in Iowa” or something like that?NIL cannot be tied to the school in any way, so this doesn’t work.
Because then it's just legalized "pay for play". And yes, that IS what's happening right now, but that's not how it's supposed to be. What we need is real leadership from SOMEONE.Why cannot specific NIL contracts be tied to the school?

How do you know that it doesn't? I have no doubt that that stipulation is in every NIL contract out there.Why cannot specific NIL contracts be tied to the school?

And his hair was perfect.
If Proctor did come back, wouldn’t that count as a second transfer where sitting out a year would be in effect? As far as I know, you’re only immediately eligible after the first transfer. Does the fact that he wouldn’t have actually appeared as a player there waive that?...
I think because there was a HC change, that the first one didn't count.
I was wondering about this. That would make some sense.
None of them count nowadays anyway. Seriously when was the last time a high-profile player had to sit a year after transferring?
I don’t know if there has ever been a player to transfer back to their original school, especially that quickly. I am not sure how the NCAA would rule on that. However, I assume they would argue for immediate eligibility due to the tampering.
The real issue isn't NIL, but the transfer portal. I am in FULL agreement with going back to losing a year of eligibility if a player decides to transfer. There also needs to be very limited "exceptions" as well, not a laundry list of "personal reasons" that a player can transfer without sitting out.NIL is a issue but the real problem is transfer portal, you fix that and it will take care of the NIL for most part
I agree, but I also like the idea of schools having to pay buyouts to other school. The argument has always been coaches can change jobs whenever they want, but everyone just skips over the buyout that is paid. Make the new school pay a buyout to the old school if a player transfers. The new schools will think twice about the investment before accepting a transfer. There will still be transfers, but not like today.The real issue isn't NIL, but the transfer portal.

I think the sitting out is a steep enough penalty because the school has to wait an entire year before playing him. IMO, adding a buyout to a kid already having to sit out is excessive.I agree, but I also like the idea of schools having to pay buyouts to other school.

I think that's what I said... to clarify even further...I'm saying this kind of thing might be the impetus for actually figuring out how to "legally" fix the whole NIL scam.NIL cannot be tied to the school in any way, so this doesn’t work.
Agree he needs some work but clearly the head coach at Bama wants him back. I think we can trust his opinion and if he wants him, good for me.I would not rather have him back unless he lose weight and get quicker. His feet moved like he was walking in mud. This may not matter as much if the ball is coming out quicker.
And/or an indication of thin quality/depth.He really struggled early but got more and more solid. It's pretty special for a TF to start immediately at LT.
This is more of an alternative to sitting out. Not sure sitting out will be an option going forward, that "toothpaste may be out of the tube" so to speak. Although, I do like the sitting out option. I do agree both sitting out AND a buyout are excessive.I think the sitting out is a steep enough penalty because the school has to wait an entire year before playing him.

Great, thanks for the articles. I didn’t realize a precedent had already been set. Perfect for the athlete who wants to play hot potato with his college career. Until there is some kind of contract-based format that athletes must adhere to, college football is going to make a mockery of itself with the portal.These articles, listed below, shed some light on Proctor's situation.

Yeah, in order for Coach to use him, he needs to show up 30-40 lbs. lighter. Which I bet, if anything, KP shows up heavier. What’s the over/under?It's interesting Proctor left in time to miss the 4th Quarter Program, and now is talking about returning. He could have benefited maybe the most of anybody from that. I hope he doesn't show up at over 400 lbs and out of shape.
