Next will be players transferring in middle of seasons

The player gets mad about playing time and decides to move on and play rest of season at another school. What happens then.

I believe NIL & portal has broken traditional recruiting

I can't believe this thread is still active.**

The only constant is change, adapt or do something else!!**
Stech • 05/18/25 12:46 PM ET
A lot of comments about players and coaches. Notice that no
13HOKIE • 05/17/25 02:40 PM ET
Fundamentally disagree. 99% were getting more than their intrinsic worth.**
marcbvtgm • 05/19/25 12:07 PM ET
So there should not be amateur sports?**
Blueboy • 05/18/25 03:51 PM ET
Spot on**
3Manysons • 05/18/25 01:24 PM ET
Well thought out comment..... NOT!! WTH???**
ancient alien 2018 • 05/17/25 06:56 PM ET
Wow. Such a deep comeback by you without any thoughts.
13HOKIE • 05/17/25 07:15 PM ET
LOL!! If you want stupid, go back and re-read your initial post. And
ancient alien 2018 • 05/17/25 07:22 PM ET
Ok. Can you tell me where I am wrong in my first post?
13HOKIE • 05/17/25 07:24 PM ET
All fans should have a salary cap...
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 05:17 PM ET
This doesn’t really seem that complicated.
RCush13 • 05/17/25 11:26 PM ET
Agreed, the school should also pay a penalty if it "cuts" a player early **
vtbball80 • 05/18/25 12:52 PM ET
Fully on board with that...
GCHokie34 • 05/18/25 02:12 AM ET
What??????
13HOKIE • 05/17/25 05:56 PM ET
Interests change as you grow older...
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 09:09 PM ET
There is more $$$ than ever in college sports - probably more viewers too
HboroughHokie • 05/17/25 06:33 PM ET
More money for sure but viewership is starting to decline overall.
13HOKIE • 05/17/25 07:11 PM ET
You are right and wrong...
MBHokie90 • 05/19/25 09:27 AM ET
Thank you for your thoughtful response.
13HOKIE • 05/19/25 10:31 AM ET
I think you may be mistaking...
MBHokie90 • 05/19/25 12:14 PM ET
Your last paragraph 100% agree with. I just don't see that happening and
13HOKIE • 05/19/25 12:25 PM ET
No...it isnt**
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 09:08 PM ET
Regular season ratings are down. After this years tournament I would bet
13HOKIE • 05/17/25 10:45 PM ET
We don't have to wait 4 years...
GCHokie34 • 05/18/25 02:10 AM ET
Ok. Will save this post & revisit it in 4 years. **
13HOKIE • 05/18/25 09:02 AM ET
I don't know what there is to revisit...
GCHokie34 • 05/18/25 12:27 PM ET
MAURY! MAURY! MAURY!**
chagerma • 05/19/25 11:52 AM ET
We will see. I hope that in real life you can discuss thing without being
13HOKIE • 05/18/25 12:49 PM ET
My original response was simple...
GCHokie34 • 05/18/25 09:01 PM ET
This is why I hope the blue bloods form a P1 soon. And I hope VT
Femoyer Hokie • 05/17/25 06:14 PM ET
Yea, this is next!!!!**
ancient alien 2018 • 05/16/25 07:19 PM ET
People felt the same when they let freshman be eligible...
GCHokie34 • 05/16/25 05:02 PM ET
I’ve been around a lot longer than you and
VPI63 • 05/17/25 08:44 PM ET
This is your second reply to the same post...
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 09:08 PM ET
No one cared about coaches moving without restriction
Pylons • 05/17/25 05:56 PM ET
There's a large difference...
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 07:00 PM ET
Coaches have contracts with buyouts
Hokey Pokey • 05/17/25 09:04 PM ET
I coached at 5 schools in 10 years of coaching...
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 09:11 PM ET
You didn't pay a buyout because they were glad to see you go. **
Blueboy • 05/18/25 10:09 PM ET
Congrats, you win the “Stupid snark of the day” award**
Lancelot Link • 05/19/25 11:21 AM ET
Thank you, please mail me the prize. **
Blueboy • 05/19/25 11:22 PM ET
So u are saying the schools recruiting should pay buyouts for the kids also
Hokey Pokey • 05/17/25 09:20 PM ET
I'm not saying that in the post above...
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 09:53 PM ET
Yeah, just look at all the celebration of Buzz around here. 🙄🙄🙄
Pylons • 05/18/25 01:25 PM ET
Ummm...there's a ton of Buzz praise on this and every VT board**
GCHokie34 • 05/18/25 04:28 PM ET
Sure. And there's also vilification which
Pylons • 05/18/25 04:33 PM ET
Buzz isnt vilified for leaving...
GCHokie34 • 05/18/25 08:55 PM ET
Lol. Split that hair as finely as you need to. **
Pylons • 05/19/25 01:07 AM ET
Its a rather large difference. .
GCHokie34 • 05/19/25 03:46 AM ET
You:
Pylons • 05/19/25 09:34 AM ET
Leave off the key context to make an argument seem relevant **
GCHokie34 • 05/19/25 10:10 AM ET
Your words. No "context" changes them. There's no "argument."**
Pylons • 05/19/25 10:33 AM ET
Correct / and to be fair he said he would leave at his opening presser **
AnotherTechW • 05/18/25 09:00 PM ET
Yeah I don't really care had he left like 99% of coaches do...
GCHokie34 • 05/18/25 09:04 PM ET
Could VT have done anything about it? He was playing us at the end
AnotherTechW • 05/18/25 09:32 PM ET
I mean...in a vacuum, fire him?
GCHokie34 • 05/18/25 09:35 PM ET
Agreed. The volume/frequency I referred to makes a big difference.
Pylons • 05/17/25 08:14 PM ET
In full agreement **
HokiesACC2004 • 05/17/25 07:17 PM ET
It's not the same at all.
Gobbler Guru • 05/17/25 02:05 PM ET
Coaches have never had a draft, salary cap and can move every single year..
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 02:26 PM ET
Not only that, but coaches can leave and completely decimate the team.
hokieZ71 • 05/17/25 06:28 PM ET
100%**
40ozDistrict • 05/17/25 02:17 PM ET
The fact that you support this insanity means you do not support VT
VPI63 • 05/17/25 10:10 AM ET
If the rumors are true..
Rev.Zeke Vodka • 05/17/25 01:32 PM ET
YOU DO NOT SUPPORT VT!!!**
GCHokie34 • 05/18/25 09:22 PM ET
amen**
Scream_On_D • 05/17/25 03:27 PM ET
The players are part of the product. Take away the facilities, the coaches,
40ozDistrict • 05/17/25 02:24 PM ET
Take away the players and what are schools paying coaches to do exactly?**
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 02:29 PM ET
Good grief, RIF If I wasn't 100% clear the players are part of the product.
40ozDistrict • 05/17/25 03:07 PM ET
I’m okay w/ no $ cap on coaches, but
HokieDelNorte • 05/17/25 01:59 PM ET
Lol...**
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 10:41 AM ET
Yes, this and the conditions that made it are what broke college sports
VTCALS72 • 05/17/25 07:59 AM ET
Freshman became eligible in 1972. I seriously doubt you were alive much
uber hokie • 05/17/25 07:20 AM ET
I don't remember...is 1972 before the invention of the printing press?
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 10:56 AM ET
I’m not the one that said “ that’s what people felt “( in 1972.) I’m just
uber hokie • 05/17/25 03:53 PM ET
I guess we will never know how people felt when America won The Great War
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 04:03 PM ET
I see your point - the Great War and freshman eligibility both
uber hokie • 05/17/25 05:19 PM ET
Both somehow documented to read about...
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 09:57 PM ET
I was and GC is correct. Almost every sports writer condemned it. **
jrc3rd • 05/17/25 08:35 AM ET
Wow- and the sports writers definitely speak for all the fans. Pretty sure
uber hokie • 05/18/25 05:33 PM ET
Awesome Post! This should be copied & posted to everyone that knocks
Scream_On_D • 05/16/25 10:25 PM ET
The knock is not athletes making money it is using college to do it
VTCALS72 • 05/17/25 08:05 AM ET
Disagree. Posters that slam "NIL" & "portal" claim life was better before,
Scream_On_D • 05/17/25 03:17 PM ET
New League
hammerhead • 05/17/25 09:06 AM ET
Yep I would like that.
VTCALS72 • 05/17/25 09:18 AM ET
Next will be players transferring in middle of seasons ◄
1980VT • 05/16/25 06:22 PM ET
What has happened historically when that happened?
GCHokie34 • 05/16/25 07:05 PM ET
Lawsuit = NCAA folds**
1980VT • 05/17/25 06:28 AM ET
NCAA is an impotent dinosaur
tallahasseehokie • 05/16/25 09:05 PM ET
Too many transfers. Everyone should be
HokieDelNorte • 05/16/25 06:06 PM ET
Agreed, coaches should have to stay at one school**
GCHokie34 • 05/16/25 07:04 PM ET
If it meant UNC was stuck with Matt Doherty indefinitely, I'm cool with it.
KCHokie2 • 05/17/25 02:38 AM ET
Have players sign contracts
Midwestguy • 05/16/25 06:01 PM ET
In order to get that to happen...
GCHokie34 • 05/16/25 07:07 PM ET
I realize that,
Midwestguy • 05/17/25 08:17 PM ET
This is absolutely necessary
Squatro • 05/17/25 08:53 AM ET
there is not one SEC or Big10 school that thinks something has to change
Scream_On_D • 05/17/25 03:21 PM ET
Yes, I understand that. **
Midwestguy • 05/16/25 10:59 PM ET
All of those have broken college sports The last is just the final nail
uber hokie • 05/16/25 05:50 PM ET
Over 60 and still care. Also kinda glad to get better seats with some of
VTKev80 • 05/16/25 06:21 PM ET
It was the final nail the coffin decades ago too...
GCHokie34 • 05/16/25 05:52 PM ET
For reference see NASCAR.,There is a point where fans have had enough. We
uber hokie • 05/17/25 07:25 AM ET
College sports are much more insulated from that risk than NASCAR is/was
BG Hokie • 05/22/25 12:47 PM ET
NASCAR has a transfer portal?
GCHokie34 • 05/17/25 09:07 AM ET
Fans lose interest and start spending disposable cash on something else.
uber hokie • 05/17/25 03:47 PM ET
The dynamics have changed so much so quickly. They might also want to
13HOKIE • 05/17/25 04:23 PM ET
Nascar didn't have a transfer portal but they did alienate their fans just
