Hmm.

“John Bol . . . has decommited from Florida . . . Multiple sources have told Swamp247 that the NIL aspects of Bol’s commitment became the focus in the weeks since his pledge, leading both sides to agree to part ways.”

Overtime Elite has solid recent history in the NBA draft.

Just committed to Ole Miss. I'll be curious to see who he commits to next week

I don't mind that it now feels above board when a guy obviously gets paid

i can't be the only one thoroughly disgusted with what's happening in college athletics, right? i mean, if it's going to be a minor league for the NBA, get this garbage off of college campuses. although maybe i have it backwards: maybe the problem is the college model itself, yes?

I've been starting to think "screw it" just go full blown free agency. However with that in mind, allow programs to offer scholarships anywhere from 1-4 years. If a player and coach agree to a multi-year scholarship, that contract is binding (barring certain circumstances, but i don't want to turn this post into a novel). If a player chooses to leave before the end of the contract he is ineligible that next season

It was hard to tell from the quote he was on the line with the Ole Miss NIL collective when he said that.
