interesting question of these players graduating, maybe Palesse has already graduated as he spent two years at Canisius and I believe was at Valpo for two years but most of these players that are moving on every year to a new location how do they ever get enough credits anywhere to graduate or is the concern of graduation not even in the equation anymore ?

A degree / education is the last thing on these kids mind. They all feel that they’re the next coming. I get that they want to play at the next level & now NLI money is part of the equation. Unfortunately, most of them won’t leverage a college education as a way out to a better life vs. bouncing from school to school until their eligibility runs out. A story which has predictable sad ending.

This is the downside of the whole NIL process. Cam Palesse seemed like a good person and teammate, and was getting good minutes contributing as a Griff. His 2+ years on campus are what could lead to a degree, which I hope he has or will obtain. But as a broader matter the NCAA's allowance for repeated easy transfers without an off year devoted to academic studies makes a joke of the very purpose of a college experience. And the ultimate losers will wind up being the student athletes themselves, most of whom will never have a career in the NFL or NBA.

The hypocrisy of the situation is that for the
most part a situation has been created that institutions of higher learning are fronting as semi professional or professional athletic leagues for these students for whatever value it brings to the respective schools which clearly varies dramatically for the have's and have nots and where the academic mission of each school is basically thrown out the window . Change has to come somehow, maybe it will have to be from the bottom up of ncaa institutions as the bigs clearly have a different agenda.

Once they leave, I don't care about them.They didn't care about Canisius enough to stay,why should I care about them.

These kids today are all about themselves. I don’t wish them any ill but perhaps a few blows to their egos might help to shape their perspectives. Go Griffs!
