I am in favor of the college model, which is a socialist model, where many student athletes benefit despite no one going to their games or caring how they do, because others care about football or basketball. That is 100% correct.  After years of working with those kids, you damn well better believe it.  If the revenue sports kid thinks he is getting jilted, go pro. 

This is the reality in many businesses.  I work in a revenue generating dept, but thousands of people do not...should those people be put to pasture because they are in support roles or do not directly drive revenue?  I don’t think so.

I do care about those kids.  They can all earn off their likeness.  It’s a great opportunity for them to earn off their skills, an opportunity many won’t have beyond college

The non revenue kids for which you don’t give a damn and they will lose their opportunities eventually as athletic departments will have to make cuts.

1. This remains nothing more than speculation on your part, no matter how many times you repeat it.

2. There are lots of places for athletic departments to make cuts that don't effect scholarship money. How about we start with administrators' and coaches' salaries? Is there some logical reason that coaching salaries in nonrevenue sports went up 43 percent between 2013 and 2018? If it's really about the kids and their precious opportunities, as you like to say, there's no way schools will cut their scholarships instead of cutting other costs, right?

3. Not getting a portion of your college education paid for because you're good at water polo or cross country is not a tragedy. As you like to point out, these kids are a net loss the for university anyhow and need to be propped up by their more successful peers. For the kids who truly need the aid and are worthy of admission, the money will be there in other forms.

4. Life's not fair, or so someone likes to say.

I do know that. Im just curious because there's a lot more public evidence against manning than there is against the mu players. I happen to think that both allegations are credible,  I'm just curious why the Buzz allegations are the only ones you seem to find credible

Do you think it might be because Peyton Manning is a national figure and that is quite different for the MU situation?  I sure do.    I just find it interesting that someone can come out of the woodwork decades later and make a claim against someone....people literally RUSH to believe them.  Someone comes out to claim it didn't happen, and of course that person should not be believed....truly amazing.

I don't know that she changed her story.
Maybe because his family has done their best to drag her through the mud for 20 years?
No, it's not he said, she said. There are other eyewitnesses who support her account.
I've never written anything here about a highly politicized confirmation, so I'm at loss to understand what you're talking about or what it has to do with Peyton Manning.

She did change it and admitted she changed it.

You said “merchandise.”  They are intentionally not selling jerseys to prevent controversy anyway. Very simple reason.

Point is, jerseys sold with numbers.....very small number.  UW-madison extension total sales of merchandise is tied to everything that says Wisconsin, has Becky on it, has a W on it....whether it is athletics related or not.

Let’s cut to the chase. Everyone knows the reason you give Peyton the benefit of the doubt is because he is white. The reason you don’t the MU players is because they aren’t.

.....my point is that you literally RUSH to believe the survivor in the MU case and literally RUSH to defend every other accused rapist. I just find the dichotomy interesting.

Also, do you reread old pages of threads to make sure that you didn't miss anything that you could argue with? Between the post you quoted here and your response you posted 24 times on other points before circling back to this one.

You said “merchandise.”  They are intentionally not selling jerseys to prevent controversy anyway. Very simple reason.

The "merchandise" includes all university related items, shirts, shorts, backpacks, pens, pencils, erasers. Universities assign that revenue to sports as a way to cook the books to make it appear as if the athletic department isn't losing as much money as they are.

Most of that gear has nothing to do with athletics at all.

They are not selling jerseys, because they won't sell. Kids don't want to buy football jerseys for college kids that will be gone in 4 years or less. It has nothing to do with "controversy".

1. I don't know your life. For all I know you have property there.
2. I did a quick google search and it's posted several places online.

You wouldn't be the first poster to have a conversation with himself on Scoop. In fact, if I understand the Hoopaloop scandal correctly (before my time) it wouldn't be the first time you have had a conversation with yourself on Scoop.

Now, normally I would say, you're right, it would be crazy to think someone would be this committed to selling a lie about having a second account on college basketball forum. But then again you just took time out of your day to do a deep dive on someone else's post history to either debunk or protect that same lie, so for you it may be plausible!

Which I could have done many times earlier, but never did because it wasn’t worth it.  But one gets tired of the accusations.

First it was Billy Hoyle, and finally the numb nuts here finally started to back off that one.  It was time for this one to back off, too.

No, I don’t own property in Illinois.  We do in Wisconsin, however, and Pennsylvania...now you know more about my life.

If two browsers were open up, they would still have same source, correct?  Well, since I know I was in California and i’m 100.00% sure he wasn’t in my house with me, one would think two different sources...but whatever.

He appears to have a daughter in school...I have a daughter in high school, not college.  Two weeks ago he posted when when I was in a clean, lock down environment we call it....no mobile phones or laptops allowed...high security.  I could go on.  I’ve offered a charity solution, no one ever wants to do it. 

Hope the baby shower went well last week per your post.  Peace

Yes it does.  I can guaranty you that D1 schools have shied away from selling jerseys due to avoiding the "profiting off others' likeness" controversy.  You don't even see "classic" jersies like you do in the NFL for that reason.

From a few years ago that backs up this up.

https://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/06/sports/ncaafootball/days-of-selling-popular-college-players-jerseys-seem-numbered.html

"Last year, any Ohio State fan could buy an officially licensed Buckeyes football jersey bearing No. 97. Though N.C.A.A. rules prohibit colleges from selling jerseys with players’ names on them, Ohio State fans understood what a scarlet jersey with a white 97 meant: a tribute to the star defensive end Joey Bosa, who wears the number when the Buckeyes play.

But as a federal court deliberates on whether it is fair for universities to make money off the commercial use of athletes’ names, images and likenesses, a growing number of colleges have quietly decided to stop selling team jerseys with popular players’ numbers."

...

“It’s philosophical — where we should be,” Ohio State Athletic Director Gene Smith said of his department’s decision to limit the jerseys it sells. He cited the O’Bannon case and “other issues,” adding, “We felt it was the right time.”

Could it possibly be because I and others had a bit more info than the avg bear on this one, and the actions taken by certain people. 

I also find it interesting that you guys RUSH to believe the victim when it involves certain people or ideologies.
