Class of 2020 C Eddie Lampkin (TX) TRANSFERRING TO SYRACUSE (4/2/24)

[OttoinGrotto]

I'd think we'd want him here asap for conditioning and team bonding

Absolutely.

 

[MSOrange]

That is good news because the pivot options are extremely limited.

Exactly. I'm well aware that Lampkin has some limitations in his game, but I wasn't at all excited about most of the options being mentioned behind door #2.

 

[ssbriefcase]

allegedly can’t return to the state of Colorado.

Ok, let's not make this into sounding like a legal scenario or something lol. He said he couldn't spend another season up there (in Boulder). It was personal, but it could be a lot of things, medical, etc.

 

[ssbriefcase]

Watch—if Lamp does end up playing for us, and we make the NCAAt, our first game is in Denver.

Something I pray for every time it's possible...Make it happen!

I figured it had to do with the elevation.

Sorry didn’t mean to suggest that. Just restating what was stated.

 

[jsshap]

Lol, where is the collective located?

Why would that be relevant for income tax?

Elevation. He has none.

Ok let’s say we up our offer and he stays. Reaction of his teammates? And fan reaction especially when he underperforms? Savage booing? Killed on social media? What local biz wants this dude as their spokesperson? Who buys his jersey? Thought that was the whole point of NIL? Maybe his family doesn’t care once they have the bag, but if it were my kid that’s a lot to take from a human emotion view. Again maybe this new breed doesn’t care.
The clock is ticking on college sports. And there’s no exit ramp that won’t be hung up in litigation
I feel for those season ticket holders; I moved away 40 ago.

I think you are totally wrong on teammates. They want people to get paid. What he got didn’t impact what they got.
The players are just following the examples set by those in charge: coaches jump for more money, schools change conferences for more money, and force the players on these incredibly arduous travel schedules. All for money. Why should the players approach it differently? Why should fans expect them to?

Lol, where is the collective located?

If I do work for a company incorporated out of Delaware, but the construction is done in Texas, where do I pay state income taxes?

 

[CardiacCuse]

i hope they get him to come back

and then get a euro center as the starter

 

[Orangefan1]

And most of the fan base wouldn’t have know me about all this crazy stuff anyways lol. Happy it sounds like it might of worked out however I also wonder if we are still considering brining in more players for this coming year

Check Dash's post on the main board. Staff is still working to add players even if/when Lampkin is in the fold

Hart was tampered with by UCLA. Jim Harrick lost Olujimi Mann late in the cycle and needed a PG desperately. They took advantage of the fact Hart’s brother had an illness, tried to manipulate the situation, and told Jason to sell that as the story. JB was right not to let Jason out of his NLI. He knew the scum bags that were trying to manipulate Jason and his family. It’s funny that Harrick was canned not too long after for recruiting shenanigans.

Are there NLIs for the portal?

Huh?

No, but they need that along with a transfer portal national signing day just like with incoming freshman since transfers are so important in roster construction today

He is earning money in NY, he will have to pay NY taxes.

Not true. I live in NY part time I don't pay NY income taxes. Hes not a NY resident.

 

[TheHaze315]

Heard the same. Yesterday the staff was confident the relationship could be saved. It appears they have taken the steps to convince him to stay..huge for such a clueless coach and AD.

Was it strictly NIL related?

 

[kcsu]

You do know that MLB players have to pay taxes in the different states that they play their games in, right?

I do. This if structured properly is different.

 

[two3zone]

Not true. I live in NY part time I don't pay NY income taxes. Hes not a NY resident.

I wouldn't tell NY this.

This is a good post.

Where is your money made? I work in multiple states and have to file in the states I work including NY. Lampkins money would be earned in NY. It’s called a non resident tax return.

 

[kcsu]

I wouldn't tell NY this.

Why? I don't work in NY.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Why? I don't work in NY.

There’s the difference. Lampkin will be working here.
