Summing this whole dispute up as Williams “took the better deal” is top shelf PR spin.

Washington was going to take most of the dollars LSU could pay him here in reality, not a fantasy land $20 million contract.

This speaks very well of the standard contract the Big 10 members are using.
Remember, it was fantasy land 5 years ago that a CFB would get 4 million dollars.

Completely clueless.

He came back because he the deal was better and in fact will end up getting even more money from UW. He won.

You think he would have come back to UW if LSU offered him 20 million dollars and offered to pay his legal fees?

Don't be a goofball.
No, seriously, I'm definitely the goofball here. That's totally fine with me. You just keep on rolling with this stuff, it's pure gold.

At this point I have decided that this is an expertly crafted ruse and that you are not really as dumb as your post come across.
This is a post board.
Have you not noticed how insane 99% of the posts are?? Ha

Everyone here is a lawyer and doctor. They all bench 400 and were all-state. They all make millions and **** 10's.

I have "69" in my name and I don't even know what that is!!!

The only dumb people here are the ones that believe anything posted. I just enjoy using common sense to call out the nuts.

No he came back because LSU was not paying Washington 4 million buyout that would have to come from their revenue sharing pot .

Don’t be a goofball!

I'm not wrong, I was being sarcastic. Like many things it went right over your head.
But you admitted you were wrong. Now you are changing your mind?

After a verbal contract? Hmmm

By the way, the root word of sarcasm is sarc, which is Latin, meaning flesh or to cut.

Why would you want to cut someone with your words?

Why would LSU have to pay Washington anything? Specifics would be nice.

Why are you deflecting now?

You think contracts can never be broken. I think they can. It is clear which one of us is correct.
Cite to me one single time I said "contracts can never be broken." I'll wait. What I have said is the contract provisions must be followed, whatever those are. Some have buyouts (coaches), some don't (players). I'd say you are stupid, but even stupid people understand this.

You are really going to wait?

So you are admitting that contracts can be broken?
You are literally agreeing with me over and over.

You mean those same LSU lawyers who told the administration that claiming they hadn’t actually fired Brian Kelly in November, would work. And they then could claim that they were now terminating him for cause. Yeah, I don’t think I would trust those lawyers. Brian filed a lawsuit and LSU quickly decided they would pay the full buyout amount and the lawsuit was dropped.
Lawyers, being the scumbag weasels that most of them are, at least took a shot to see if they could pull a fast one. I don’t know why they thought that would work. But, I’d be disappointed if they didn’t at least try. It’s in their nature. Pretty funny that the governor weighed in too. LSU is owed some national championship games dammit! The sooner everyone gets on board with that the better

Under the State of Washington law, the University of Washington can recover a lot more than just what they have paid out under that deal he signed last week. First things first, they could file temporary injunction will keep him from going to another school. Then it would be a straight forward breach of contract case under state law against the player who signed. There would also be an intentional interference with contract claim against his agent. Plus, a potential fraud in the inducement case against both the player & agent. What would probably come about through discovery would be a case for interference with a business relationship against LSU and, perhaps, Kiffin personally.

I doubt the university would pursue such action because it would make them unattractive to future recruits, but this is the type of case that could lead to congress addressing the concerns.
In this case, did the kid not act independently from his agent? Seems like the agent wanted to distance himself real fast.

Read my post #113 - It states that if Williams had left Washington and signed somewhere else, either he or the new team would have to pay Washington $4million, (the amount of his deal with Washington). Assuming the school was LSU, they would be on the hook for the $4 million or I suppose they could force Williams to pay it from his contract with the new team and basically only pay him $2 million of the $6 million they offered, while the other $4 million would go to Washington.

His new school would have also incurred a reduction in its revenue-share pool next year by that amount ($4 million), per House settlement guidelines

You want to paint with a broad brush and pretend that details and circumstances don't matter. You've been saying for months that contracts don't mean anything, which is false. They mean what they mean, each one is different. So read the contract (even if your lips are moving); that's what it means. If the contract contains terms that allow a buyout or early termination, then yes - you can follow those terms. If they don't, then there are consequences. A far cry from contracts not meaning anything. Look at Sorsby, its in the news today that his contract with Cincy has a buyout provision, so he moves on and Cincy gets $1M. The contract was followed.

You are literally proving over and over that you're ignorant.

Acting alone or in cahoots with another 3rd party. I wrote that post before the agent distanced himself from the whole ordeal. I was assuming the agent was in on the negotiations. That was my error.

What contract dumbass? You realize that "contracts" aren't all the same like its an episode of Looney Tunes or something?
Probably not a lot of need for name calling but that is okay, I get it.

Any contract, can any contract at all be broken?
