Indiana’s Moore wins suit vs NCAA re: his 3 years in jr college dont count against eligibility

What is the point anymore?

A chance to make more money, party with college age girls longer, and still have all the bling-bling and new vehicles you want.

An observation: The NCAA's legal representation is, *ahem*, less than elite. May we assume they're using SEC refs who are attorneys?

Truly a men vs boys situation

Pretty soon we will need to start looking at pensions

Maybe they can start teaching their own classes.

Sure but, those girls won't stay college age for the duration of some of these newfound eligibility periods.

I mean, it's one thing to be late for practice after allowing oneself to be distracted by a shapely co-ed.

But quite another to offer up "Sorry Coach, but my car broke down dropping my girlfriend off at the bingo hall..."

And now we have this in hoops:

NCAA grants former G League player eligibility

NCAA ruled that former G League Ignite player Thierry Darlan, 21, is eligible to play Division I basketball at Santa Clara, his agent told ESPN.

My prediction: by next year, guys who go pro in football can come back to college without losing any eligibility. The precedent is set.

In economics we would call this a moral hazard.

What a mess

Everything in the US is just weird now days & college football has officially joined that weirdness..

I guess I just don’t get how some random judge can decide that a voluntary sports league can’t set its own rules for eligibility. The judiciary is well on its way to just writing college athletics rules from the bench all by themselves. Maybe they can tackle Targeting next.
