If schools are paying insane money, then there has to be some type of contract. You can't make offers of millions of dollars and not put it in writing. If that's the case, then why wouldn't there be a stipulation that the player is required to stay for a certain number of years, meaning they can't hit the portal. Since college football is a professional league, then why is it that we are not hearing about the flip side of these big money deals, which is that the player is locked in for a certain number of years just like any other professional athlete? Imagine an NFL player accepting his millions up front and saying that he is going to leave for another team whenever he feels like it. We saw the issues Rashada had with broken (verbal) promises, and Proctor (Bama) took Iowa's money (at least some of it) and then just decided to go back to Alabama without playing a snap. How does all of this work without contracts?
