NCAA: 2022 College Off-season Thread

[bluesfan94]

Probably depends on the wording of the agreement. Logically, depending on the company he signed with, did the people who drafted the agreement put in a clause that he needs to remain a part of the LSU football team. The NIL money is not permitted to be tied to performance, such as being the starter or throwing for X number of yards/TDs. The value of his NIL is being on the LSU football.

So, his agent/lawyer should have been consulted before he stepped away from the team. Is he no longer on a football scholarship? I get that practicing without the chance of being the starter sucks, especially for a senior, but if the scholarship and NIL money were tied to being on the team, then he needed to consider it, if money is tight for him and his family. If it's not, then he's more than free to walk away from it all at this time.

I would be shocked if he's still on football scholarship if he's not practicing. It doesn't seem like a team would allow that. It wouldn't surprise me if he was no longer at LSU, for that matter.

But yes, ultimately it does depend on the exact wording of the agreement, but given that his value is tied to his being on the team, I would be pretty surprised if the companies didn't build that into the contract. There also could be a clause related to his behavior that could be argued.

CBS 3:30 Big Ten game after they lose the SEC

[GKJ]

So the championship game is on a rotating basis. Interesting. I wonder if Fox is going to find a deal with the Big 12

 

[PhillyWings]

Does the deal include streaming select games on peacock and paramount+?

Peacock yeah

 

[Tony Romo]

That next SEC deal is going to be CRAZY

 

[StreetHawk]

Eastern time. One of the many Pac12 issues was playing games that start at 10/11pm EST. No interest whatsoever.

Going to 11pm EST means a 4-5 pm afternoon start for ucla or usc ending at 7-8 pm.

 

[Tony Romo]

Texas names Quinn Ewers the starter. Not really surprising

 

[hockey20000]

Maybe I'm wrong but I could have sworn UGA played a game in Eugene like 10 years ago?

Edit: Looks like it was Tennessee in 2013, they also had a home-and-home with UCLA a few years before.

Arizona State. I think that was the first time any SEC team played a true road game west of the Mississippi

 

[Tony Romo]

He'll be transferring again by 2024.

I assume you are talking about Arch's 2nd year on Campus when Ewers will be a RS JR? He probably will be in the nfl. 1.000 rated QB's usually get drafted. Especially when he's with one of the better offensive minds in the game.

Ewers needs to play well this season to take a strangle hold of the QB position. If his play is so so, to the point where Card ends up starting a game or two then he’s likely done at Texas and will need to RS on his next transfer.

LSU played at Washington in 2009 as part of a home and home. This was Sark's first year at UW.

 

[Tony Romo]

Didn't A&M have a home and home with UCLA also?

 

[GKJ]

Didn't A&M have a home and home with UCLA also?

Yeah that was 16-17
