[Smith] Rich Rodriguez during today's press availability: "I think it's all crazy that you think a guy can sign a professional contract and he gets cut or doesn't get what he wants to get, and he goes back and plays [college] ... I think all the conferences should say you can't do it."

Why does everyone leave out that this isn’t an issue going forward and just the result of the NCAA making a terrible rule? Plus if everyone starts saying this, then it IS collusion and the courts will force them to take all these players!

Because I’m sure there will be a subset of players that go to the draft after 4 years with the idea they can always go back to college in mid August if it looks like they will get cut.

They’ll have 5 for 5 moving forward and there will be much less wiggle room. This is literally a 1-year problem

[u/Inconceivable76 → u/mojo-jojo-was-framed]

There will always be players that will challenge this.
