Some of the coaches complaining simply aren't sincere in their complaints, they just realize they don't have enough people to step up to fill bags and now they are upset.
90% of these agents dont have Kids best interest in mind. Quick payday and move on. They dont care if kid makes wrong decision long term.Quote:

Yes, I do think some are insincere. It is hard for me to believe the P4 coaches whining are sincere. Give these P4 coaches more bag money to hand out and see how many are still complaining.Quote:

I think a lot of people quit caring about a kid making a wrong decision in the era of NIL and it's simply win at all costs.Quote:

I mean Brian Kelly complaining about it all being about the money? Really guy? Like we all forgot about the $5-6 million pay bump you got to leave Notre Dame?
I get your point. I feel the lack of care and win at all cost is primarily at the P4 level and it completely ____s us at the G5 level.Quote:

Cant believe we are getting poached by a great value Ellen Degeneres
The G5 essentially becomes a league for very talented sophomores, and there is no expectation that they hang around for longer than that.Quote:

I wish they could install some kind of tranfer fee system, where the schools who's player gets poached gets some financial comp. Wishful thinking, it'll never happenQuote:

The real race is going to be which G5 teams can solidify themselves as a brand of lower-priced but competitive athletic entertainment in a sport where they will NEVER compete at the highest level.
The only people looking over our shoulder to check what we're doing are these agents and scouts from other teams... So you might as well have fun with your brand and turn it into something that people want to see every week, regardless of the talent level on the field.
That’s the only thing that will solve issue but I think that’s will come down to making the players employees and have contracts.Quote:

No compete clauses are legal.
