Not sure what you are getting at, but we are in that world now.

If salary caps are set for major sports, would it not level everything out? No one likes kids playing for 5 colleges in 5 years. This creates more issues than solutions. They definitely arent playing student at this point. Just make it the minors, with good pay.

ND has 5 in the portal, including Burton. I realize they have buckets

They want to win, resetting their roster.**

ND as an institution has money
GCHokie34 • 04/04/26 05:32 PM ET
Unfortunately, they both have/spend more than VT hoops.**

What's going on is players like being free agents every year and shopping

If you had 4 years to monetize your skills you'd do the same**
GCHokie34 • 04/04/26 05:34 PM ET
I absolutely would. I wasn't criticizing, just an observation.
wwhokie1 • 04/05/26 02:19 PM ET
Apologies for the assumption**
GCHokie34 • 04/06/26 04:34 PM ET
This may be true but it is f’ing up college sports

And yet tv ratings are high...**

Im not sure that changes the sentiment **
GCHokie34 • 04/04/26 08:36 PM ET
It doesn't. Also, no one said they shouldn't...just that they are 🤷🏼**

Isn't it time to adopt a pro model? Having to up your bidding price
VT20 • 04/04/26 06:56 PM ET
I know of one way to do exactly that...

I would think they wanted to keep Haralson and Burton if he’s healthy
millmtnhokie • 04/04/26 04:48 PM ET
Both in the portal. Tough losses, as you stated, if healthy.**
