The new wrinkle is that an athlete’s NCAA five-year eligibility clock would start either upon initial enrollment at any college or at the start of the academic year immediately following their 19th birthday. Whatever happens first.

I think college sports needs reform. But the new Senate college sports bill is not the way to fix it. It creates two different systems - one for athletes that limits and micromanages their compensation; and another with no limits for coaches, ADS and sports industry execs.

Legendary coach who maid 100 million on the backs of unpaid labor. Now wants to regulate the earnings of those who can finely earn fair market value. This is clown behavior.

Here’s a summary of the Protect College Sports Act that nobody seems to wants to say out loud: in a sport where nearly 50% of the players are African-American - many of whom come from disadvantaged backgrounds - a bunch of rich white people have gotten together to propose

We are all still reading this bill, but its primary effect seems to be to limit the compensation of athletes while protecting the huge salaries of all the adults - coaches, ADs, sports industry executives - who are getting rich off the performance of the players. And it gives the NCAA an antitrust exemption that no other industry gets just so they can keep underpaying the athletes. Sure, there are some good things for players in this bill, but this seems like a great deal for the NCAA and the rich guys who run college sports, and a bad deal for athletes.

NCAA confirms a vote on the 5-year, age based eligibility policy in June. It has wide support to pass.

Prospect U Notebook: Scouting 2027 CG Jeremiah Profit (6’5) |@JeremiahProfit2 Jeremiah Profit showing real shot creation instincts. Reverse pivot pull-up over length with controlled footwork and balance, then follows it up with a clean catch & shoot corner 3. Ability to create separation without needing over-dribbling stands out. Efficient mover that understands spacing, timing, and how to get to his spots. @GamepointNation

Utah State Aggies men's basketball landed one of the top floor generals in college basketball with the addition of AJ Bates, a 6’3” guard transfer from Louisiana Tech Bulldogs men's basketball. In an outstanding season, Bates averaged: 12.1 PPG 2.8 REB 5.9 AST (Top 25 in NCAA) Bates is a terrific lead guard who consistently makes the right reads and thrives operating out of pick-and-roll actions, especially when hitting rollers and manipulating defenses. He’s also a very capable scorer with a strong frame and the ability to knock down shots from outside, giving him legitimate offensive versatility. Bates helped lead Louisiana Tech to the CUSA Championship Game and earned All-CUSA Tournament Team honors. One of his best performances came on the road against Liberty late in the season, where he exploded for 34 points and 6 threes. Elite point guard heading to Utah State. @Ajbates___

Immediate playing time and development at a strong mid-major for many is going to be more valuable than chasing an opportunity at a power conference school . If you perform, the portal market will pay you handsomely. Productive mid-major starters often become high-major priorities commanding major money a year later.

After a great conversation with Coach Russell I’m blessed to have received another D1 offer from the University of Texas at El Paso!
