Can't believe Juan Anderson wants to discuss transfers here. Booooring!

I have a dachshund.

As if you are in his head. He'll be 'fine'? Really? Portal is 'his friend'? What? Hence, my question. You chat with Coach? Have inside intel? Or, your conjecture? Heck, for all we know, SS  will turn to NAIA guys again.

Does it need to be spelled out?

Shaka will be fine as Marquette's head coach getting good players. He will use the portal to fill the roster needs, because he said they will use the portal to fill the roster needs.

Back in the day George Thompson told me about a phone call he received offering him a tongue bath. We spent a good while conjecturing on what that might entail. He was under the impression she wasn't offering her dog for the task

Roster needs like a "combo guard" that is not 0 for the season from 3.....

Hamilton played single digit minutes in 11 of the conference games this season.

He was up above 20 minutes per game early in the year.

Is there a rule against a school paying  a severance bonus to encourage a player to leave?

Why pay a severance when they can just pull his scholarship?

For reasons similar to paying severance in the business setting. It avoids the need to say someone was fired or "cut," it can encourage a decision within a time frame, and the severance agreement generally includes waiver of claims and non-disparagement clauses.

Like you say, there are all sorts of reasons why severance makes sense in an employment setting. It's in the self-interest of the company to do so.

However those reasons really don't exist here. You just tell them to move on. There isn't much they can do about it.

That could be, but legal issues tend to follow the money. Twenty years ago, who'd have thought that a lawsuit would result in college athletes getting seven figure compensation? There's a lot more at stake now for athletes than just a scholarship. In any event, I was just curious if there were any rules that applied.
