Still crazy how the playing field finally got evened out when under the table payments were eliminated, and all of a sudden the SEC can't compete anymore.

Yeah. Though I woulda thought they had more $$ than many schools.

They probably had a distorted view on what they would have to pay. They really thought they were just that much better than everyone. So they didn't spend as much.

The B1G has way more money than any other conference. (Not counting boosters.)
Saw this image getting traction on Reddit. No idea why they were zooming in on this girl or why Reddit was saying, "Caught in 4K".
Do you know?
Apparently, this is Abella Danger, a porn star and law student at Miami.

Duke is suing their QB so he doesn't enter the portal.
And already got denied on entering the portal.
As a result, a different judge, Ed Wilson, will rule on Duke's request for relief that would prevent Mensah from enrolling at another school, playing at another school and licensing his name, image and likeness to another school.
Next up...

I guess they showed her constantly, so someone knew.
Let me guess whose side you're on in the Duke-Mensah drama...

I mean, even if it WEREN'T Duke... I'd be on Mensah's side, probably. I don't know the particulars of his contract though.

I think if you sign a contract, you should be locked in.
And that's where we're heading for college.
Of course, I then believe that players should have protection from misleading contracts or colleges not fulfilling their side.
And to be clear here, if Mensah signed a contract and the school fulfilled their end, I'm on their side. If they didn't or left a loophole that lets him leave, I'm on his side.

Yeah, that's fair. I was under the impression it's a 2 year contract and Duke owns his NIL for those 2 years. I've not seen that he could not portal, but I also don't care enough to find out

Ok, at the dentist and bored. Looks like he was indeed prevented from transferring. So feels like it should be like the NFL. You ain't playing. For Duke, you ain't playing for anyone
