Miami coach Jim Larranaga retires mid season. Cites NIL

NIL is in the process of making college sports permanently extinct. NO ONE had an issue with a player getting paid for their jerseys, media appearances, corporate appearances, etc but the direct payments are a sick hijacking of the initial intent of the compensation movement. And our very own Kain Colter is absolutely a villain of this story. Besides blowing up what could have legitimately been a top 5 2013 team he pushed this issue way too far. Hopefully he repents for his sins against the game!
My vote for worst ever case of maligning a former NU player.

Bowl games

Sadly for me personally, bowl season has lost all its allure. I used to be glued to the TV for all bowl games big and small, but between so many key players entering the Portal (or sitting out a bowl game for the draft) to the point where you really can't be sure what a team looks like heading into a bowl game, to the very bright spotlight on the playoff, my emotional detachment has come equally fast and unexpectedly.

Of course I will always be tuned in whenever and wherever NU plays, but I'm admittedly pretty frustrated by where the sport finds itself right now.
Not me bub. I got Oklahoma-Navy on the big screen and Bloomberg on the small screen (my buddy @SimpsonElmwood knows: this is how ballers roll in 2024+).

"After we went to the 2023 Final Four, eight players wanted to transfer or seek better NIL deals. They told me they loved it at Miami, but wanted to seek a better deal."

He’s probably around the age of our average poster here. Adapt or become extinct. Everyone has an excuse nowadays for their poor record.
