Palate cleanser: CFB fans ripping the stupidity of the 'portal flip'

Good. Fuck him
In my 'research' I saw a hell of a lot of SEC fans going "WTF are we doing here guys???"

Thank you SEC brethren. I thought it'd be LOLing at Nebraska but even the SEC folk are just exhausted by this whole thing.

Gotta put some rules & structure around this. Tonight's thing was just way too stupid to go on.
 
What makes this even more wild is he went into the portal with a no contact tag. I am not sure what the rules are on that. Appears none.
Yeah if you have an agent, why do that?

I actually think this might be a mini straw that broke the camel's back. Just put some structure on it.


Also I think this will put an end to ALL teams announcing commitments without having a signed contract.

Although the teams don't announce it do they. I think programs are going to step up to stop this. What's to stop the next guy from announcing his commitment - JUST to get a counter offer. CFB coaches are going to be on guard bc they won't want to be humiliated like Rhule just was.
 
I do like that people are pointing out that the Minchey propaganda had a lot of “he’s such a great guy” and then this happens.

Would be nice to see him get booed like the NBA draft pick basketball players.

I think a lot of schools love how things are the Wild West and will fight to have contracts etc. Tech will fight it and so will a lot of the SEC.

I'm not so sure about that. I'm seeing a lot of SEC people hating this tonight. Even in the tweets I posted, 2/3 of them are from SEC people. Which is ironic bc Kentucky was the winner here (but they all hate UK).

I don't think the SEC folks like that the agents have this much power. There's no salary cap, no restrictions, no rules of any sort. Just wait for Kirby or Heupel to get humiliated like Rhule did tonight and they'll all be banging the drum for change.

The agents are 100% calling the shots here....I can't see that anyone would want that to continue.
