Ben Simmons admitted he didn’t attend classes at LSU. Why should he?

Euro cacs come over at 18, american blacks can't for their "own benefit" they just have to make millions in ads andjersey sales for the NCAA

they should allow cats to go straight out of high school or do a 2/3 year minimum in college.

That's one thing baseball gets right.

I don't blame him at all and they don't get paid

 

[Supa]

you have the option to go pro right out of high school, or go to college. if you chose to commit to a college you go for 3 years

That's a terrible, poison pill rule in NBA terms. If you go to school and you dominate year one or two you can't go pro and risk injury. Players develop at different rates but a rule like that doesn't take that into consideration.

No they don't.

he still shouldve went to class. he could have had a serious injury or came up with bloodclots like chris bosh or something. maybe im wrong but it also kind of speaks to the work ethic of the kid.

He worked on his craft fakkit.

The one and done rule makes no sense

The NCAA y'all

 

[DStyles]

I hope he flops. Dumb stupid c*nt.


Throw away an education brehs

 

[HE_Pennypacker]

All this "I came here to play basketball/football" is all fun and games, but it's horribly short-sighted. It's their lives though


What I want to know is how many of these "fukk school" brehs wound up bankrupt 5-10 after retiring having made millions

I hope he flops. Dumb stupid c*nt.

He'll make more this season than you will in your lifetime

 

[STAN JONES]

I just hope he has the right financial people around him now..

He signed with Lebrons management company,he should be fine

 

[Paper Boi]

but paying them would be a disgrace to the title STUDENT athlete

 

[madness]

mustve been nice. slept in late every day, played video games and watched movies when he wasnt at basketball practice.

No disrespect. Ppl like you are the reason the NCAA continue to be crooks in plain view.

He's being extorted. The only thing LSU care about is him playing. That's why these dude get degrees in Pottery to stay on the court.

Miss me with that "education is important" stuff. While his coach is a millionaire.

Nobody told him to go. Ben coulda went and played 6th graders in Australia like Dante Exum did and still gone high.

The NCAA offers the kind of shine and hoes on your dikk that only the NBA can give you. That's why the kids who don't give a damn about school still attend.
