You think AJ would have chosen BYU without transfer portal and without NIL?
I doubt it.
This is the best that ever happened to BYU Sports.
I wonder if it is because of NIL and transfer portal that KY accepted the BYU head coaching job.
Just my 2 cents.

What part do you dislike? Lack of continuity? I love it. Why can't a kid chase a paycheck?

Zero loyalty. Zero connection. Zero TEAM.

That’s what all pro sports are. And it seems unfair to tell a kid he can’t make

Pro teams don’t turnover this much roster ever year

Could also be because they didn’t get the offers they wanted

This is so insanely self centered. If you could make $100K more today would you leave your job?

LOL. That's a super shallow jump.

Why is it self centered for me? I’d rather have the system you advocate. But I also get that was a bad system for kids

It's just like the real world with any job. We are all free to find the best fit

If coaches can do it players should be allowed to do it as well.

Coaches all have buy-out clauses, etc. I'm all for it!

Do we do that with our careers?

Why would BYU want him? He looks like a poor man's Brody Kozlowski.

Right because we’ve seen a ton from Brody to make that statement.

Brody was a higher rated recruit out of high school and this guy has averaged 3.9 ppg his first

Oh I don’t think he’s anything special. But we haven’t seen anything from Brody.

He's proven. Played on a national championship level team his freshman year

Purdue did not make the Elite 8 this past year. I will trust Coach Young, but I highly doubt he is going to

If that's a peak into Koz's future, call me very excited.
