This article explains another approach to the NCAA monopoly on college basketball...it is an interesting idea that would definitely upset the apple cart...https://sports.vice.com/en_us/article/59zejz/the-plot-to-disrupt-the-ncaa-with-a-pay-for-play-hbcu-basketball-league


That is a really interesting article. Extremely disruptive to the point just getting it started would be amazing but almost impossible. If it did though, college sports would be changed forever.

Fascinating article, although I can't see it working without a lot more capital than they envision. The NCAA has tremendous clout right now, and I can see them freezing the HBCU out of the TV market which is where the money is. I'm also not sure I get their figures. They say 10-15 million for salaries. If they're talking about $100k/year, that's over a million/school/year, so salaries are more in the 20 million range. Similarly with facilities. You can renovate a small gym and make it nice, but it's going to cost 8 figures to get it up to a size that can work for high level athletics. Then the pressure to perform will be so great that you'll probably have kids not go to school at all. Still, the idea is an interesting one.

As far as the salaries go, it said they would range in the 50k to 100k level, not all at 100k, but you're right that the start-up funding will be a formidable hurdle to clear...I don't know that you could freeze them out of TV with all outlets now...the netflix suggestion is very interesting...netflix would have the capital....internet streaming opens up a lot of possibilities....

latest update: dana altman knew kavell bigby-williams was under investigation for sexual assault yet continued to play him all season on the ducks road to the final four...when asked about the investigation the university president michael schill responded to the daily emerald school reporter with "i don't have any awareness of that...in any event i can't comment on an individual student...what if i was asked by another reporter about you being obnoxious?...would you want me to tell them that?"
read this link: https://www.dailyemerald.com/2017/06/21/oregons-kavell-bigby-williams-is-under-investigation-for-sexual-assault/

dancing with the devil (dana altman is a criminal):
____________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________



what you need to know about altman: during labor day weekend of 2010 tony woods beat the crap out of his girlfriend in front of their 8 month old child...woods was arrested and charged with three counts of assault for kicking and pushing courney lorel barbout who suffered a fracture of her spine in the attack

against the 6'11" 250 lbs woods, courney had no chance to protect herself

wake forest did the right thing & suspended woods

so oregon's sleazeball head coach dana altman recruited woods to shore up the ducks interior defense, just do it


dana altman & steve alford are enablers of sexual predators (just like joe paterno) that commit crimes of violence against women if it means they might win a few more games


who else has altman recruited to eugene?

*brandon austin, 2.6 gpa in philly, was suspended from the providence basketball team after being charged with a sexual assault of a female student...he immediately was recruited & transferred to oregon...when confronted by the media, altman claimed he checked austin's background but did not know he raped a girl while at providence...charged in the rape of an oregon female student...dismissed

*damyean dotson, suspended during the season for trying to use a fake id at a bar...charged in the rape of an oregon female student...dismissed

*dominic artis, named in the rape of an oregon female student...dismissed with a court restraining order does not allow him to set foot on the university of oregon campus

*elgin cook & jalil abdul bassit were arrested by the eugene police department for shoplifting at market across the street from matthew knight arena on sept 12th of last season...dana altman has stated "we expect our student athletes to conduct themselves as solid members of this community and team...both were "internally disciplined" (which means nothing as usual)"
http://www.oregonlive.com/ducks/index.ssf/2014/10/two_oregon_ducks_basketball_pl.html

*dana altman knews that elgin cook had been cited for assault & battery, disorderly conduct and vandalism four years ago in wisconsin before he recruited him to oregon...criminal dana altman has stated "i was aware of elgin's background prior to his arrival at the university of oregon...the two years before he arrived here, elgin did very well at prep school and junior college, especially in the classroom...we would not have recruited elgin if we didn't believe he was capable of receiving a college education that he would appreciate and value"
http://www.oregonlive.com/ducks/index.ssf/2014/10/dana_altman_was_aware_of_elgin.html

*jordan bell cited for harassing an oregon parking officer attempting to place a ticket on his car...altman suspended bell for 1 game, a home game vs pac 12 cellar opponent washington state

*dana altman has been named in the lawsuit against the university of oregon filed by the female student victim of the brutal player sexual assault for his role in allegedly lying to authorities that he did not know that brandon austin was dismissed by providence for raping a female student...settled out of court with a confidentiality clause

*idrissa diallo was forced to decommit from cal when altman via his corporate sponsor threatened diallo's aau coach william middlebrooks with cutting their funding, idy then made an official visit to eugene

*ahmaad rorie transferred to montana after the promised playing opportunities never materialized

*5 star troy brown jr selected oregon over cal after nike promised to significantly upgrade/further enrish it's financial support of brown's aau team the las vegas prospect which is coached by his dad...on his annoucement day troy declared his commitment to the "oregon baskeball organization"

*when mike montgomery had his cancer scare dana altman & his henchman tony stubblefield negatively recruited against the bears basketball program using this medical situation as a reason not to attend cal

make no mistake about it, altman & stubblefield are pieces of worthless ****, they are dancing with the devil

I think the NBA should basically require 18-year-olds to make a choice: go to college and go for four years, or don't go to college and get your training through the D-League or by playing professionally oversees. The NCAA should then make the penalties for colleges that don't keep kids academically eligible much more severe. Would college ball lose some fans. Probably, in the form of the casual fans who follow it when they're not following the NBA. But college basketball would still be popular in places that don't have NBA teams and with alumni that want to root for teams whose players we can relate to as actual student-athletes, not rent-a-players.


There's no need to put these kids under that kind of cruel pressure on their life choices. Just do away with one and done.

Then the kids who are now forced into the choice of going to college or going overseas can just make the most meaningful choices for their particularities in life. And, for those for whom following through with education is meaningful (even though I might think it should be for everyone) can do so to the degree it remains so subject only to the same pressures (good and bad) as is everyone else - except with the advantage of athletic talent which they can use in the most appropriate ways for them, like everyone else uses (or should be able to use) their own talents as most appropriate for them.

I need to call bull **** on this. Shocky may be and do a lot of things but he certainly doesn't HIDE BEHIND HIS KEY BOARD. Unlike most other posters, Shocky posts pics of himself and his exact seat position court side at CAL games. That would hardly be considered hiding. He has strong opinions which he likes to share. I have no problem with that. If you do, simply don't read his posts. I highly doubt he's spray painting them on the side of your house.


I'm a fan of the Ducks as well as Cal. My sister went to Oregon, so did a cousin. As for corruption, cal has been dinged by the NCAA far more then the ducks ever have-remember bozeman?

I think, however, that there's one big flaw in the model that hasn't been articulated yet: college basketball isn't popular because of the level of play; it's popular because of the tradition of people rooting for their alma mater, or for schools nearby and the "color and pageantry," and all of the hoopla (pun intended) surrounding March Madness. If you want to watch top-level basketball, you watch the NBA. It's hard for me to imagine large audiences for schools like North Carolina A&M, or Alcorn State even if they do get 5* talent. Remember, these kids are not going to be household names except to recruiting junkies. Meanwhile, Duke will still be Duke and UCLA will still be UCLA. Not sure the audience will be there.

If, on the other hand, the goal is to re-segregate college sports so that black players go to HBC's and white players go to traditional schools...

Agreed. There should be no restrictions on a person's opportunity and ability to pursue one's life work. Techies, artists, and mechanics are free to start their careers whenever. Should be the same for those with athletic talent.

I think the way MLB and NCAA handles their baseball draft eligibility is much better suited than the way the NCAA and NBA handles theirs....in baseball, a kid can be drafted out of high school and then make up his mind whether he wants to go pro or stay amateur....if he decides to go to JC, he can be drafted again the next year...if he goes to 4 year school, he has to wait until after his junior year to be draft eligible again....seems a bit fairer than asking an 18 yr old to make a life altering choice with really, no options after that choice is made....I just hate that a kid can be convinced that he should declare for the draft and then, even if he isn't drafted, therefore, never having been paid to play a game, cannot go to college and play as an amateur...there has to be a better way....

Absolutely correct. It gives the colleges a reasonably predictable roster without limiting the kids' choices terribly. Also the fact that the decision comes AFTER the draft, not before is a definite benefit.

A problem I can foresee with the decision coming AFTER the draft is that, as compared with baseball, which has zillions of rounds, the NBA has only two rounds, so that the cost of a wasted draft pick to the NBA drafting team is, I would say, unacceptably unfair and unacceptably high.

j'rann brooks got cal, stanford, usc, virginia & oklahoma in his final 5 but it really don't mean **** because he's a stanford lock to join friend/teammate daejon davis in palo alto unless he don't get accepted by stanford admissions (which is a possibility)

then cal & maybe usc will be in play

and i got no problem with that, stanford & harvard (congrats to spencer freedman on his commitment to the crimson) like cal are elite academic universities that get their grads minted for the next 50 years, not like oregon whose worthless degree sets you up to be the night shift supervisor at the medford truck stop which eventually results in you marrying a beatdown lot lizard & eventually dying a slow painful death from rampant stds

on the other hand, andre kelly gotta realize his actionable offer is subject to the staff only having 2 available schollys for 2018 right now (**** can change, life is not linear) with one reserved at the vip table at nobu malibu for jordan brown...andre, what's really the point of taking a bunch of road trips to a couple of academically mediocre schools that aren't within driving distance for your parents on gamedays?...actionable offers aren't actionable forever, andre
