“When they fired Rick Neuheisel my freshman year that made it easy for me to make my decision to quit and go play basketball, which I wanted to do anyway,” Robinson explained. “For my three years at UW, I had a booster offer me $100,000 per year to come back and play football because they needed Nate Robinson back on the football field because we weren’t winning any games, it wasn’t exciting. It was crazy, we went through a dark age at the University of Washington. When Tyrone Willingham was the coach years later, we didn’t win not one game. It was just crazy.

Just pay the damn players. End the ridiculous charade. Mediocre coaches make 2.75 million a year. These guys don't deserve $125,000?
Don't pay the tennis, volleyball and bi-sexual tranny handball players. -
we USED to care about football..

Pay one you have to pay them all over all sports the same amount. Same pay scale at every school tooFire_Marshall_Bill said:Just pay the damn players. End the ridiculous charade. Mediocre coaches make 2.75 million a year. These guys don't deserve $125,000?

I assume you have the answer to your question so go ahead and tell us why that is the same as paying players and we can skip several steps hereUWhuskytskeet said:

That was a legit question, but I was under the impression it doesn't apply to everyone.RaceBannon said:

snitch move imo

So every collegiate athlete has been offered money. Every woman has been harrassed or raped. What a time to be alive.

How bout this. If a guy wants to get paid, fine, let him. But if he does, he loses his scholarship, his food money, his stipend. So he is off the university books. He still counts as a number on the schollie count, but the university doesn't have to pay him, whoever he is getting the money from has to, and the athlete has to get taxed on their income.
So, use a guy like Baker Mayfield. He was a walk on so no one was paying him his freshman or sophmore year. By his Jr year it was apparent he could get paid. So he has to decide. Does he want to be a college athlete, or a pro athlete paying for college.
If a guy takes money during a year that he is getting scholarship money, he has to pay it all back that year. Year is from August to June. So before the school year starts, you have to decide what you are going to be. Once you go pro, you can't go back to a scholarship athlete. But if you are stupid enough to get paid for two years, fine.
If some agent wants to take a chance with the 7 foot AZ hoops player, fine. If he wants to take the chance with the fast pitch stud like Danielle Lawrie. If he wants to take a chance with Jake Browning (who sucks by the way) Knock yourself out. But you have to pay for their year of education and all the other shit college athletes get also. -
Male and female student-athletes must receive equitable "treatment" and "benefits." I'm not sure how you could possibly get around paying 85 football players without offsetting that with equal payments to 85 female athletes. This would bankrupt just about any program outside of the top 25 in revenue, and I don't know how any non-money male sport could possibly survive as their subsidies from the football and basketball programs would almost certainly be cut.dnc said:

If high school football players want to graduate and ride buses in the minor leagues instead of relaxing in the Knight Center getting blow jobs from cheer team members they can be just like minor league baseball players.
College football could end in my lifetime and be replaced by this model. It won't be paying players.
Even in basketball which is all but dead most of the stars choose one and done over the development league or foreign leagues
College sports are not so much for the 1% who are a future pro star but for the 99% that realize the value of an education that regular kids are going into lifetime debt for.
The NBA was a better league when players stayed longer building a name instead of going to the end of the bench and being forgotten. They get paid so again, all this could end and we go straight minor leagues for every sport.
I wouldn't like it but if that happens it happens. Its just not going to happen on campus -
NCAA pulled in almost a Billion Dollars and had an 80 million surplus in 2014. Huffington Post is my source:GreenRiverGatorz said:

It probably shouldn't be up to the individual program but the NCAA in my opinion to start sharing proceeds with the athletes that make it happen. -

So he got 100K+ for playing basketball then???

I'm not jumping into the amateurism discushun; I'm just wondering why these fuckers feel the need to open up a can a worms YEARS FUCKING LATER after the fact.
Does it make them feel important again to remind everyone they were the caliber of athlete that got offered?
Did someone at UW piss them off?
What possible motive do you have for saying this shit out loud this many years later? My understanding of NCAA statute of limitations is that they're fucked up and that there is a broad exception to a default 4-year limit for "blatant" disregard of the rules. If that is enforced on its face, you can drive a truck through that.
Good news for Washington. Emmert and the NCAA have much bigger fish to fry that some $100,000 offer allegation from 100 years ago. NOGAF. Nor should they.
I'm less concerned about the NCAA and more annoyed at Robinson. What a dick move dood. Huge dick move. -

He was at the Arizona gaga and seemed to be happy. I think he was just bullshitting on his podcast and threw in a metoo when talking about players getting benefits.Alexis said:
