Unfortunate Ending to life and legacy for Kyren Lacy

[KajunKrazy]

Looks like someone was having fun in his NIL toy and treated the several 1000 pound machine as if he were in a go cart. Irresponsibility.

"I cant play in bowl game or continue school so i can focus 100 percent of time on draft prep"

"How does speed racing prepare one for draft"

I just looked up name meaning of kyren, yikes, dont think it can be posted

If they stop "giving" players their grades, then that could start to hold up so many portal transfers. But it would also be in essence tattling on themselves if data shows players staying have better grades at a higher rate

That is something I've wondered...if in this new era, do college athletes still have to gain a certain percentage of credits towards their major each year in order to remain eligible? If I remember correctly, it was something like 25% after sophomore year, 50% after junior, etc.

Because with some of these guys attending three schools in three years, I can't see how the heck they're maintaining that percentage.

At this point haven't the courts basically said that there can be no restrictions that limit one's ability to make money off of their NIL?

I'm not even sure how they can have any eligibility requirements at all..

If anyone goes read “The Rant”, Tiger_Stomp is apparently related to Lacey. Nobody has cleaned that up yet, 40+ pages.

They’ve gone down the rabbit hole.

Thanks Turbine for not letting RP get that stupid.

For those athletes in Grad School, with so many playing 6-7+ years these days....6 is a respectable sum.

Half our baseball team that stsrted at JC just added yet another free year or 2
