In a split decision, the three-judge panel ruled that U.S. District Court Judge Claudia Wilken's plan -- which would allow schools to pay athletes as much as $5,000 annually, beyond the cost of attendance, for the use of their name, image and likeness -- was "erroneous."
Their main complaints against paying student athletes was a possible bigger legal mess if college sports lost its amateur status and didn't want the favoritism gap between student athletes and regular students to grow any larger.

Schools can still offer some compensation but it has to be as scholarships and not as cash.

Ehh, I'm not on the pay them annually bandwagon but it seems like its just so the Universities trying to get the players likeness so they can cash in more. If it means the return of NCAA football video games then that would be a plus. Hate it when students athletes get punished for selling off their old jerseys and stuff like that like Ohio State players did a couple years ago. $5000 seems like enough for a scholarship athlete to survive off of for a year.

They're on pace to do what they did last year... choke in the 2nd half of the season after a great start... they were 5-1 last year before they reached the SEC schedule and got their asses handed to them.

Simple Fan 10-11-2015 09:45 PM
They got a good chance to beat Auburn. Louisville struggled against them and it was close. If Kentucky doesn't turn the ball over they should have a chance.

Why the fuck is the Governor's Cup game (UK vs Louisville) so late in the year?

Simple Fan 10-11-2015 11:01 PM
I like it there. But its there as part of the ACC-SEC in state rivalry week at the end of the season. Georgia plays GT, Florida plays FSU, South Carolina plays Clemson, and UK plays Uof L.

Simple Fan 10-12-2015 05:42 PM
USC(Southern Cal) fired Steve Sarkisian. Checked into rehab a few weeks ago on a leave of absence and got fired today.

Simple Fan 10-12-2015 11:36 PM
And the USC on the east coast South Carolina has announced Steve Spurrier is retiring mid season.

How is ohio state not number 1? this makes no sense they have bums who know nothing about football making the ranks its bullshit

Simple Fan 11-09-2015 11:54 AM
Clemson has played better and had a tougher schedule. Ohio State should have been blowing every team they've played out of the water but have struggled on offense this year.

Simple Fan 11-09-2015 12:06 PM
What the hell is up with Missouri. President resigned today and the students are celebrating. I know they're was something racist put on a wall but what the fuck is with the protest. One dude said he wasn't going to eat til something was done. Sounds like a bunch of whining if you ask me. Should have stripped the football players of their scholarships and called the police on the protesters for loitering.

Simple Fan 11-13-2015 12:37 PM
College Basketball starts tonight, figured I'd just make this thread for both football and basketball.

Louisville plays Samford
Kentucky plays Albany
