I don't have the stomach to read much of the reaction to the Quade Green commitment, and I don't blame anyone for not reading my 2 cents, but I thought it would be therapeutic to just put down my thoughts, and what better place.
My immediate reaction was, I couldn't believe it and I was angry with Quade. But, if I put myself in his situation, I would probably take the opportunity to take care of my family as well. So, while I can't wish Quade luck at UK, I can understand his decision.
So now I get mad at UK and Cal and WWW, but they are just taking advantage of a system that allows them to pay players blatantly, while we get killed for minor infractions. And to all of the Cal apologists, I know that HE doesn't directly pay them, but don't be naive.
So, I am even more angry with the NCAA for not enforcing rules equally or fairly. If they did their job, there would be a level playing field for all teams. So F the NCAA.
It has never been more clear that we are not allowed to play the same game as UK and Duke and probably AZ and a few others, and it is frustrating, and all the more remarkable how competitive we have been.
