Several players transferred to Florida State under the assurance that they would receive the money.
Let this be a lesson to anyone and everyone, get a deal in writing.
If only they had some sort of idea that this could happen.
I do love the idea of leading a boycott of practice before the Duke game last year though.
That’ll show him.
It’s not even like Florida State was good last year so what’s the point of practice anyways?
Let’s get ahead of something though since I know people will make a big deal of it.
When Leonard Hamilton retires (coming soon) it won’t be because of NIL.
Coaches can’t keep using that crutch:
Old people retire.
That’s what they do.
Sometimes that’s the only part of the story.
But this goes back to the whole NIL world.
It’s chaos because there are no guardrails and people can make promises and back out.
Get everything in writing.
No one gives a shit what people are paid.
Just make it public, sign a contract, whatever.
We’re still going to cheer for laundry and whatever name of the college we like.
Now, I have no idea what the hell this lawsuit is going to do.
We’re going to hear about guys transferring over lack of payment and lack of holding promises true.
Tough to have this come out a week after getting your ass kicked by Louisville too.
