Im telling ya'll there's gonna be a major epidemic of NIL athletes that can't adjust to real jobs. If they aren't smart with the money it's gonna be a reality check when their income decreases and responsibilities increase.
Zakai Zeigler sues NCAA, seeking another year of eligibility.
- Thread starter ukcatz12
- Start date
Hes not wanting a 5th year
He's wanting multiple more years
As long as Tennessee will want him is what he is wanting to change. Says 4 years is unlawful lolol

Can't blame the guy for trying, honestly. If your prospects were A) make $500K for another year of ball, or B) some BS for $45K, which are you choosing? We may not agree with it, but it's his opportunity.
Ziegler is just who “They” picked. This lawsuit was coming and Tennessee is behind it. Ziegler is just the face of the suit. They are looking for any way to bend or break rules that will give them some type of advantage. Same as their state passing a law that says they don’t have to follow NCAA rules. They are all slime balls posing as College Administrators. Win ball games even if it hurts the university. Win at all cost.
Isn’t it sad people in positions of power think winning at a game is more important than the mission of the university to educate young minds??
Sad Sad reality.

If this is successful the University team is no longer connected to a degree. It is professional sports. Instead of every 4 years new students get scholarships.. 35 years old men will have been in college for 10 years and produce one degree for our country. The mission of college is to educate our youth. Instead of having 3 people educated, you now have one. Taking all the colleges together in about 10 years, we now have 10-20 thousand less people with a college education.
America is falling behind in education so fast and stupid court decisions like this is why.
It’s stupid to put winning games above educating our youth. One percent go to the NBA. The others join Americas work force. If this is successful we will have thousands of less people with degrees. This suit isn’t asking for one more year. Its unlimited eligibility.
I mean, yeah I get it. They made entire movies about people not wanting to leave college.. and you weren't even getting paid hundreds of thousands to do it. Like YOU were the one paying for the venereal diseases, not the other way around.
We just look at the entire world differently. No sense in debating. Agree to disagree.
I like things the way they are. I’ve almost lost my passion for college sports as millions of others have. I didn’t like watching guys playing for Tennessee for 7 years. Others always demand change. I think it was Einstein who said change just for the sake of change is wasted. , or something like that.
The 4 year model of college sports made sense for a long a** time. Shame that greed from just about everyone is going to ruin it.
It will be just like pro athletes who never learned how to manage money, they went broke after a little while. They all have a great head start in life. Let’s see how they manage their gifts.
You’re verbose, but your inexperience is showing. This is not about staying in college to earn a degree. Most people you will meet with multiple degrees do not have good careers.
