This is just the same thing as one of us changing jobs. Companies/schools don't REALLY care about their employees in general, thus employees only care so much about their company/school. Companies started it with massive layoffs, and players can be asked to leave as well. The players just finally have a choice. Personally I prefer this to the dictatorships of past coaches, Lloyd Eaton comes to mind for UW. But yeah, we need balance, it will take time to find it.Frankly, Why would you wish him well? These athletes don't give a bleep about the University of Wyoming - or any other school, for that matter. They are professional athletes looking for a pay day. I don't wish him ill will. But I will remember him about as much as he will remember his time at Wyoming - which is not at all.
We went from one extreme to the other. We correctly recognized that college athletes had zero commercial rights, limited mobility, and over restrictive regulations...so we solved that by giving them a poorly regulated financial market in NIL, unlimited transfers, and almost no guardrails at all. All we did was trade one set of problems for another.This is just the same thing as one of us changing jobs.
