Of the four mentioned, they are most likely to be playing in the NCAA tournament next year. Probably an incentive greater than the money. NIL would probably be similar at the others mentioned.

No. It is all about the money, and I completely understand a young man and his family going after all they can get, while they can get it. JP gave me some wonderful thrills while at Furman. I wish him nothing but the best.

If he's not coming back to Furman who cares...

I think it’s fine to celebrate the success of Furman players. We may not like how and where they end up, but if part of our future recruiting is showing that Furman can get you into a P5 school with NIL deal this is something CBR will point to as a selling point. We just have to get used to our best players not graduating from Furman and take advantage of the time while they are here.

Hunter, Slawson, Bothwell, and Foster graduated from Furman. Players NOT graduating is something we shouldn't have to get used to.

As much as I hate the changes happening, I can't blame or hate on JP or anyone else for taking that kind of money. If you paid attention to CBR's recent video with Dan he was throwing out some pretty big numbers. I wish him the best.

No problem.

FUBeAR is already used to not caring about the NBA, the NFL, most college basketball, and FBS Football.

All former passions now resting on the scrap heap with the rest of the women FUBeAR has destroyed.

We can just add another one to the list.

I’m talking about moving forward based on this year’s exits. Maybe it’s a one year blip and we’ll trend closer to the players you mentioned?

All of those graduated before the just outright pay for play that has really taken off in tbe last few months. The NCAA has realized it is not going to win any court cases so it is now wide open with no rules or regulations in place thus the NCAA saying yesterday anyone can transfer at any time and be immediately eligilble as long long as they are in good standing academically. That last part was just to save face and means nothing.

For example, Furman has nearly twice as many Southern Conference football championships as the next best SoCon member, and over three times as many as The Citadel....which is why they must carry our luggage
