Re: Malik, Leggett, Berry, Walker, Ayo-Faleye, Betrand in 2022 portal

Maybe we should just do away with senior night. Maybe you should just be a Celtics season ticket holder. Speaking of the Celtics they are playing at a totally different level lately. It's amazing how good their defense has become when they do not have to cover for a below average on the defensive e...

Re: Malik, Leggett, Berry, Walker, Ayo-Faleye, Betrand in 2022 portal

Coaches have buyouts penalizing them (and sometimes preventing them) for leaving a contract early. I don't have a problem with a student athlete transferring, but how about holding them somewhat accountable too? If the coach that recruited the player leaves, the player should be able to transfer no ...
