https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/40024327/uab-becomes-1st-d-football-team-join-players-association Continued deterioration of amateur athletics. Now they can get a cut of the money the BIG schools are making off of them? In addition to NIL? These kids are going to be making millions. Their educations should no longer be free. In fact, they should not even bother going to school and these teams should just disassociate with the term 'college' or 'university' in general. This is a disgrace. I've done a 180. I am completely against NIL and college kids making money. Wish they didn't get a cent. If this continues, I'm probably going to give up on college sports and just follow the pro leagues. I can't deal with 80% of the basketball team being replaced every year.

So with the results of Merrimack surprising win at Bryant today & Vermont beating UMBC these are the scenarios for tonight …., If UA wins: UA is 1st, UVM is 2nd, UMBC is 3rd, Merrimack is 4th. Bryant and Bing are out. If Bing wins, Bing is 1st, UA is 2nd, UVM is 3rd, UMBC is 4th. Bryant and Merrimack are out. Bingo just got a LOT more sense of urgency for tonight otherwise season over

His program is notorious for this type of bull$iena. I live not to far from Andover and his demeanor, which goes down to the team, is beyond bro like. Glad he got the hook.

I don't know. Looks like he is coordinated and athletic. I don't know the competition level, so highlights can be misleading, but the video on Twitter is impressive (as highlight films always are) I'd take a chance at getting someone like him. Year 1: watch him develop and learn the college game. Year 2: watch him be a star at the AE level. Year 3: root for him to do well at a P5. I think a few players like that, along with a few portal wins is a recipe for success at this level. It looks like he is an Aussie. Would love to restart a connection. He's also 20, so not really a typical US freshman.

Jared Verse was very very raw as well...that's going to do nothing but help football...

Absolutely. And if the person you can get is a 7 foot project what will likely take 2 years to develop when you are a losing team, then sure. But I can tell you that it's not a recipe for success. For record I don't follow this player. Just read what the "experts" are saying that he is very very raw. We don't get players of his size in our league unless they are. We should not be focusing on raw players on a losing team.

Shouldn't you just sign the best guys you can get? Think about this like football, in the new world, lower schools are a great place for guys to get polished and grow their game. That can only help a team recruit, until they change the transfer rules (which I think after about 2 years, they will)

I would prefer us playing a MAAC team first.

Nice win and back where UA Lax belongs, AE #1 seed and regular season champs. Merrimack on Thursday. Of note, the Merrimack coach resigned today after 17 seasons and will not coach Thursday's game. Fall out from the racist incident in last game they played.

After trailing for much of a tight first half, women outscore UNH 9-1 in the third, win 18-9

We get to count him right

It’s sad this crap continues in our game by fools like #16 on Merrimack. I’m glad that their AD did immediate investigation & kicked him out of the program postgame as well as apologized to our entire locker room. That team is pretty classless in both games we played them since they came to AE. They are leaving for MAC next year good riddance. You win national championships at D2 level act with some sort of class.

Why UAlbany continues with Baseball is beyond me. I respect Mueller for putting up with little resources; however, something has to change.
