Charlie Foster to Ole Miss**
- Thread starter dawgstudent
- Start date
I was going to say I hope he figures it out, but he went to the wrong team for me to do so.
Studnet dropping dimes.
If you can’t beat “em, sign their quitters!
I hope Charlie throws as many balls to us, next year, as he threw to our opponents this year.
When I told my brother that Foster had signed with TSUN, he said, “ The grass is always greener over the septic tank!”
I know nothing about him, but there's not a lot of school allegiance in the current day of paid mercenaries.
Hope he has the same record there as he had here. 0-3.
Well, I wasn’t all that worried about our chances against OM to begin with, but whatever my level of concern was yesterday, it’s less today
I’d advise you to move past this. You’re absolutely correct, but that’s the way it is, at least with transfers, and you can’t blame them. They were raised (by us) on travel ball, where there’s upheaval every year.
But at this point you’re only hurting your own enjoyment of the sport (really all college sports) by wishing for the old days.
At least it’s still technically amateur.

My mama had that book back in the day…
What the #3ll is amateur about college athletics these days?
Think he’s announced he’s back at UM. We have better corner outfielders anyway.
That would be extremely surprising and I would be shocked if we were to pull him. Honestly, don't see it happening. They won't lose him to us.
They probably started that so someone would put more money up. They know how to play their donors to get money.
I hear from a friend who is a big donor at Ole Miss that Bianco sux at raising money, generally doesn't even approach them, 180 degrees from how their football program operates. Sounds a lot like how Cohen was said to be.
If you take out old man anger, NIL (and even rev share) is still amateur. The pay is not based on actual play, legally. And I think we should absolutely keep it that way. The day we go to employment and contracts based off that is the day it actually does start to go downhill.
What accountability? You could argue that things, in that way, were worse before because all these payments were under the table.
The rules are the rules. This whole 'accountability' thing is a made up farce by old people who long for the way it was. And I liked that system too, I wish we would restrict transfers in some way. But the kids didn't create the system, the adults did.
You don't belive that personal accountability has ever existed and is a modern construct made up due to transfer rules in college athletics. Thats fascinating.
I'm not going to cry about this. Whenever we had a lead and struggling to hold on after our starter ran outta gas this dude found a way to blow it.
They can legalese it anyway they want, but athletes are in some cases making millions of dollars per year. Calling them amateurs is laughable
They are not employees of the school. They can still leave whenever they want. You can't tie NIL compensation to that.
It's amateur until they change that aspect. This is fact, there's no arguing about it.
I understand the legal designation, not arguing that point. It though is as absurd as calling NASCAR a Stock car race
