NCAA is considering making freshmen ineligible in college basketball

[Th3G3ntleman]

NBPA's fault to blame partially if this shyt goes through. These dumbasses been laying down for years and done allowed these cac establishments to dictate entry into the league with that one year rule. Got the NCAA feeling all brazen and shyt

If every coach could coach freshman like Calipari does this discussion would be deaded

The Don Juan Calipario has foreseen the future like a prophet

"Can we continue to separate, can we continue to do this with these rules the way they are? I'm the one guy out there saying, 'We've gotta change this somehow. We've gotta encourage these kids to stay two years.' But the NCAA's gotta do some stuff. And if they don't do it, we need to separate from them. I'm not afraid to say it. Look, they've embarrassed me. I've done nothing, so they're not going to come and show retribution to me and do stuff. I don't really care. But something's gotta change with this one-and-done rule. I seem to be the only coach saying anything. You know why? No one wants to see these kids two years here (at Kentucky). They don't want to see them for two years, so now we're all good with one year. It's wrong for high school kids, it's wrong for college kids, it's wrong for the NBA, so why won't we come together and do something about it?"

Top-level college athletes on scholarship should also be allowed to receive additional pay in the form of stipends to help make ends meet, Kentucky men's basketball coach John Calipari told CNBC on Wednesday.

"If you're lower or middle income, you get no grants. You get no financial-need aid. None of that. If you're really poor, you'll get grants to get you by. But not those kids in the middle income," he said in a "Squawk Box" interview. "My thing is: there's a cost of attendance. What is it $3,000 to $5,000? I don't know what it is, but these kids deserve that."

"The situation reminds me a little of the Soviet Union in its last years. It was still powerful. It could still hurt you. But you could see it crumbling, and it was just a matter of time before it either changed or ceased to exist."

The NCAA is one of the most corrupt organizations out there.

One of? They might be #1. The fukkery these dudes have been pulling for decades is unbelievable. The entire "student athlete" bullshyt gotta be top of the list for grimey moves.

 

[MJ Truth]

the fukk is wrong with either going pro, or committing to a school for 3 years like they do in baseball?

What's the point of a player who is good enough to play professional basketball sticking around for his sophomore year? Or his junior year? Why are we holding that player back? It's not like he's getting his degree during that third year in college, so what's the purpose of the three years? Seriously. And the college game is so different from the pro game that it's not like he's really improving to the level that these college fans want to make it seem. So there's a mandatory three years for what reason? Three years is arbitrary why? What would have improved for an Anthony Davis or a Blake Griffin or a Kevin Durant or a Rudy Gay or whoever by making them stay another year or two?

Sure they do. Do you know who Aranxta Sanchez-Vicario is?

The difference is, Tennis (or gymnastics, etc) does not have a partnership with the NCAA under the guise
of doing what's best for the "student athlete", then trying to swtich up when the "student athletes" goals
do not mesh with theirs'...

Tennis does have the USTA, which is pretty meh but nowhere near the control freak the ncaa is.
But that partnership is coming if US tennis keeps being trash...

Because mindsets and stock changes in 3 years. binding them to a 3yr contract and you aint paying them. Unless you also recommend that if a coach recruits a kid he must stay all 3yrs. Or even better a coach must stay the length of his contract

It 1) increases player's injury risk, 2) eats into player's money-making time in the league and 3) is unfair and benefits the cac NCAA establishment more than the player's. There are no age limits in hockey, tennis, golf, soccer,cricket -- virtually all sports where cacs form the majority. Why should there be age limits on basketball and football?

 

[CodeBlaMeVi]

College basketball is whack regardless.

Nikkas dont have to go to college/ Do like Brandon Jennings and go play overseas.

Why should players have to capitulate to greedy cacs or else move to China (which no other sportsmen in the world have to do and which most college players won't do regardless) in order to qualify to play pro basketball?

then go pro. you can "go pro" going overseas also. theres nothing wrong with the baseball rule. if nothing would improve for anthony davis in college, dont fukking go to college. enter the draft, or go overseas for a year. if you choose to enroll in a college, i have no issue with that coming with a multiple year attachment to enrollment

@Sensitive Blake Griffin
If this rule passes, your boy Cal done son

.

Not any more than any of the other coaches out there. LOL @ people still thinking Cal is the only one who recruits one and dones. Coach K been doin the same thing for yrs now. He just aint win shyt that way.

And Cal would probably tell them kids to take their ass to China for a year and get paid. He tells his kids to go get that paper unlike sketchy fukks like Roy Williams lol

should be an alterantive. Also I think the NBA should do a better job of developing guys in the D-league
