So they’re unhappy with White leaving? Or they want to be on a playoff team?Duce and Carter are not leaving to find better comp.

They still need to be enrolled at their college of choice for spring ball though don’t they?Kids often now even take up to 6 credits in online courses during this 3 -4 week college Christmas break.
They're enjoying the courting and recruiting process. Also, if they are OSU prospects, they likely weren't entertaining anyone with prep for Georgia.Athletically, you'd think Duce and Jahad should have been snapped up quickly. Could there be academic issues that make their situations complicated?
This isn't a viable point when said athletes aren't allowed to study what they want, but are put in a major to stay eligible. As said in another thread, go to Cuse.com right now and see how many are in CRS. What good is a gift if there are strings attached? It's not a gift, it's a contract.Administrators, coaches, bowl executives, and every other employee or owner in the workforce deserves to get paid. Even kids in college who work part-time should get paid (and pay taxes on what they receive). But that's where it should end. Being a student athlete on scholarship - that is, enrolling in an educational institution tuition-free and (secondarily) playing a sport - is not a "job". It's a gift you choose to accept. If it's for you and you qualify, fine. If not, I don't want a bunch of fat cats from the SEC turning the undergraduate educational system into a PFP farce and pretending it's "NIL for the kids". And that's what's happening.
They should pool their lucre and spend their time negotiating with the NFL players association to create a g-league option for college football players who want to get paid.

Not that I know of. In fact students on break sometimes enroll for online classes at a school they don’t attend. They might have to pay for these classes themselves, not covered by scholarship. Wouldn’t fulfill the full time enrollment requirement though for athletic transfer per the above info.They still need to be enrolled at their college of choice for spring ball though don’t they?
"Gift" was figurative not literal. Yes it is a contractual relationship. That doesn't make students "employees". I would suggest that you read the Alston decision. It specifically states that the NCAA's anti-trust exemption (and the popularity of college athletics writ large) rests on the amateur model. The court's mention of "modest payments" was made in the context of equalizing benefits not recognizing an employment relationship (there isn't any).They're enjoying the courting and recruiting process.

It is been nice getting to know Ja’Had. I am gonna miss him. I hope he makes a lot of money and can really help his family. It is fortunate Tony played a lot of players in defense and we have some depth and talent to replace him.
Amen. I hope he really can help his family out. Will really miss watching him play.It is been nice getting to know Ja’Had. I am gonna miss him.

Good luck to Ja’Had in Columbus.
