What happens to pro athletes when they don't perform?

Not only will non-performing players lose their current NIL deals, they will be told to get into the portal (as they already currently are.) Alabama has been moving players on early for over a decade now. (Why do you think they graduate their players in 3 years? It's so Saban can move them on, ie transfer without any hit to the schools APR). The new transfer rule is a godsend to Saban as it allows him to update his roster much easier.

The majority of players in the portal are not there by their own choice.

College football is a business (and has been for a long time). There is a reason that KD, Boyle, and Rick George are three of the highest paid state employees in Colorado. It is only recently where players have been able to benefit at the same levels as the coaches and administrators. The reasons the schools are fighting this so hard is because it represents their piece of the pie getting smaller.

So what happens if these pros don't perform? -- Colo Spgs Buff 05/06/2022 11:01AM

I would assume it is similar to golf/tennis endorsement model -- buffhooper 05/07/2022 10:08AM

It's an outright travesty -- EBN 05/06/2022 3:38PM

Here's a story you can probably relate to... -- CUKev 05/06/2022 6:13PM

I think you are a little out of touch -- buffhooper 05/07/2022 09:57AM

You don't know me very well -- CUKev 05/07/2022 11:21AM

Good post ** -- buffhooper 05/07/2022 11:58AM

Minimum Wage... 10 Bell + Way to go, Kev! -- buffalo30 05/06/2022 8:48PM

Or Longs Peak for us in NoCo ** -- Shecky1 05/06/2022 1:51PM

I miss that view ** -- BadgerBuff 05/06/2022 12:49PM

I do too. -- buffalo30 05/06/2022 1:44PM

Awesome view ! -- Shecky1 05/06/2022 1:54PM

I saw that story. Bijan Robinson will definitely perform but not all will. ** -- WinningLeadership 05/06/2022 11:36AM

Kind of like what -- BadgerBuff 05/06/2022 12:01PM

As I understand it, performance clauses are not typical. But termination -- hawg1 05/06/2022 11:29AM

More than likely, -- BadgerBuff 05/06/2022 11:10AM

That in itself is a scary proposition -- EBN 05/06/2022 11:29AM

You said it. A lot has to do with how -- BadgerBuff 05/06/2022 11:53AM

Assuming they don't wash out. Texas had zero draft picks. -- Colo Spgs Buff 05/06/2022 11:16AM

Yep -- BadgerBuff 05/06/2022 11:45AM
