Citation needed. Looks like AI slop. I'm pretty sure we would remember more than 10 players being arrested per year since the year 2000.

I will say this, the influx of money seems to have caused early professional maturity for most of the kids in the sport. Anecdotally, it seems like you hear about way less drinking, weed, general stupidity than you used to across the country.

Then there’s gawja.

Pretty sure those numbers are ridiculously incorrect. I do agree though that it does seem like there’s less arrests these days even when I thought the $ influx would have caused an increase in stupidity.

So there is a lot of "buzz" all over Texas message boards and the internet in general that Texas is imploding with locker room issues


Some version of Arch being terrible, kids skipping practice because they aren't happy with PT, and all kinds of other stuff.

Kiffin will take them to court saying he got his pros before the SEC banned the practice. Gets an injunction and pushes the hearing out until the season is over. Then he drops the lawsuit.

LSU saw what happened to Texas Tech. They'll fall in line. Losing your OC schedule in every sport isn't worth one player for one year.

I just don't get the upside on this. The SEC has basically told LSU, "you may ultimately win, but we're going to fight you every step of the way. And if we win, and you've used these players, we're going to hammer you." How is no one at LSU stepping in and saying “Hey Lane. Cut the shit.”

I mean, if this was Jamarr Chase or Joe Burrow coming back, I would get it. But it's for a guy like JR Tuihalamaka - a good player, but not anyone that's going to decide whether you make the playoffs or not.

I just don't get it.

I don’t like it or what lsu is doing but it’s such a double standard crock. Certain teams (Colorado State, Virginia’s offensive line, Ohio State too) have players in college for 7-8 years. That’s okay.

European professional basketball players? That’s fine.

A rookie minicamp participant is perfectly acceptable.

Exhibit 10 contract? Cool.

A training camp participant? Death penalty

College football is so backward and lost
