Basketball PJ Hayes to the Transfer Portal

[Richie O]

Rutgers forward PJ Hayes plans to enter the transfer portal per Brian Fonseca.

He joins a list of players who technically ran out of eligibility to enter this offseason, as there’s an ongoing court case to potentially allow players to get five seasons instead of four.

Say it ain’t so…seriously. Good luck to you young man. You can probably win a 3 pt shoot contest but when the lights come on and the game starts….not so much at the P5 level.

GO RU

 

[MADHAT1]

Wish him good luck in his next stop , but hope he's replaced with someone better .

Players permitted to get five seasons instead of four... just like the extra Covid season?

[DHajekRC84]

That we live in a world where people think that players with PJ Hayes talent should get a form of compensation above and beyond a full college scholarship, access to good training facilities, academic advisors, three meals a day and maybe a small stipend is the real problem. People must have better things to do with their money than this.

So who should get this money?

You should read the post I responded to.
The implied athletes shouldn't get paid.
You should tell him to stop whining and that "they are getting money".

Who said anything about fans paying livelihood? I missed where I wrote that.

Education would be part of the compensation package.
HC Schiano gets a country club membership and $5k clothes stipend.
On top of a multi million dollar salary.

Every employment package includes non-monetary benefits.

 

[NickRU714]

Ive long said pay athletes from sport revenues and stop the dumb "booster" system.

But ADs and Boosters would riot.

Imagine your season ticket prices if the AD had to get rid of "donations"?
They would make fans pay for their livelihood of all those AD employees and expenses anyway.

At RU, with historical low donations, wouldn't ticket prices basically stay the same?

Schiano has years of experience..what does PJ Hayes do to earn 200k on top of a free education

Why are you comparing them employees they are student athletes

Right - I mean, theoretically, it comes down to one question regardless of competition level. Are there super fans with money who are willing to pay money to a school or directly to players to make their team, better? If the answer is yes - you could technically have D2 and even D3 players getting paid. The difference is, the rate of apathy towards fan following increases dramatically as competition level increases so the likelihood of some fan caring enough to buy players typically decreases at lower levels.

How good of an “education” did PJ Hayes get if he ends up somewhere else in the fall it will be his 4th school in 5 years … crazy

They are all participants in a sport generating billions in revenue.
And should be compensated adequately.

Either the entire sport is "amateurs" or not. You can't pick and choose 50% of participants are professionals but 50% are amateurs.

Especially the at worst 2nd most important group of participants.

And speaking of that compensation, it can include both:

1. Direct monetary benefits (HC Schiano salary, PJ Hayes 200k - which SHOULD be coming from the AD and not fan collectives)
2. Non-monetary benefits (HC Schiano country club and clothing stipend, PJ Hayes acces to training and education).

That was where the comparison came from. Merely pointing out "non monetary compensation" can go along with "monetary compensation".

It's not "money or education".

You can smell your jealousy from over here

 

[rufeelinit]

Not jealousy more like disgust.

 

[LETSGORU91]

They both have experience stinking.

Since when has taking dumpster fire rosters and turning them around into bowl teams (twice!) and one of those times took his teams into ranked territory equate to stinking?? I'll guess you will refer to Schiano's overall W/L record. Detractors love to do that without factoring the putrid first three years of each rebuild before Rutgers started turning things around.

 

[FinalFourOrBust]

Not jealousy more like disgust.

Lol that’s pathetic

 

[rufeelinit]

Lol that’s pathetic

Pathetic works as well. Maybe your sense of smell is not as impaired as your initial response suggested.

Hayes is gonna get a stack.

Probably will pop off for 12-14 ppg at a good mid-major

Huh? He didn't score 11ppg in D2 or at San Diego, now he's going to be higher?

 

[RUBigFrank]

If he scored like above ( with out knowing his history) there would be idiots on this board saying we need to get this guy.
