It’s the right time for him to go. Leaving at the top of the mountain when the NCAA is ready to hammer him for absolute bullshit.

Brian Kelly to UM?

I think they’ll promote Sherrone Moore, but Vrabel would be hilarious and pretty awesome

Happy for Moore but kinda wanted to hear Brian Kelly say “you betcha” or whatever

Moore officially hired.

The Kelly stuff was the most agent driven thing ever

The more (pun not intended) I think about it, the more I think Moore’s hiring is a big deal. He’s the first ever black Michigan coach, getting paid 6m per year. I guess the big ten is better about minority head coaches than others (Franklin, locksley and Walters - lol Tucker), it still.

He’s also only 37.

And bomani jones just pointe this out:

This is the third black former assistant of Jim Harbaugh to become a head coach. Pretty nuts. He is the rare super pro life guy who actually gives a shit about equality and justice

The NIL legal dance is so ridiculous makes politics seem honest

No wonder JH left. Fuck these guys. You have no power no one cares.

I’ve seen multiple sportswriters think that unions and collective bargaining are the only way out of the current chaos of anything goes.

:musical_note: In olden days paying players money
Was looked on as something scummy
Now goodness knows! :musical_note:

This is interesting to me because the Ivy League doesn’t have scholarships. So if the Dartmouth athletes are employees, then every college athlete down to the D3 and juco levels is an employee. That’s quite the can of worms there.

I guess I would need to understand what “compensation “ they are referring to when stating that the Dartmouth athletes are performing work for compensation. Because the compensation isn’t a scholarship in this case.

JFC, the NLRB decision said that even though they don’t receive scholarships, they are employees because they receive athletic apparel.

It may be an important distinction legally but I don’t know that I care about this angle that much. Like, do unpaid interns not deserve bargaining power because they technically work for free? They’re doing work that makes money for the school.
