He has made Colorado relevant. I doubt they thought he was going to stay there forever

Hopefully the wind will be blowing like crazy. We got a chance if they can’t throw.

You could be correct. My point is there is no loyalty from anywhere going forward. It will probably get worse before/ if it ever gets better.

I guess I am just a skeptic when 6 players from the same team bolt to preserve a year of eligibility, precisely before they potentially burn a year of eligibility. . I am all for Coaches being honest if the players don’t fit in their plans. However, this feels like a situation where the Coach says you not in out plans as a future starter, but if you remain on the team I may use you on Special teams or mop up duty. Looks like some have just been on the team this year, so I’m not sure which Coach recruited them. If you know the kid will transfer a next season, why not let him train and learn from your staff for the remainder of the year? After all, the kid did commit to your program. This all assumes the players are not cancers. These players clearly don’t trust the Coach with thar year of eligibility. It’s ok to be a decent human being. I think NU has at least one player we all expect to transfer that is still around. I am sure there are more.

I for one will be relieved to have this board actually be about NU basketball again, rather than an overexposed Io_a alum.

I would steer my son away from if he was a recruit. This guy has PJ written all over him. I believe after the honeymoon he eventually comes back to the norm and crashes.

I don't disagree with that statement personally, but I will point out that this PARTICULAR issue doesn't much follow a standard left-right divide and you will find plenty of small-c-conservative change averse pearl clutchers in both parties on this particular issue.

That at hardball politics. We have a decent number of Republicans in MN who religiously oppose gambling and a decent number of Dems who oppose it based on what you're describing, but the big reason is the native tribes have a permanent gambling monopoly and are decisively powerful Dem funders. They haven't been able to iron out a final structure they like yet, so it's blocked cold. Very very close for a couple years now after a few years of hard opposition though.

Gambling is a source of revenue for state governments, and money has only one color.
