That’s absolutely false. Those kids don’t care lol.

They gonna burn so many bridges doing this tho

If a kid from Madison was going to school at Miami, announced he was transferring to presumably go home, and Miami didn’t allow it, it’d be the first segment on First Take.

**** everyone. For real.

Exactly would be the 1st story they bring up on espn is sick

Money puts out fires, or so I’ve been told

Doubtful. There are dummies who commit to Billy Napier despite him being on wrong side of a lawsuit for failure to pay promised NIL funds.

Yeah. Sadly, you're right that it's doubtful

Not sure of the end game here for Wisconsin. He's not going to play for them and it's not a good look for them.

99 percent of people have no idea this is happening at Wisconsin, so Wisconsin isn’t worried about the look at the moment.

Now if Lucas starts putting this out there and gets mainstream traction, that could change.

How can you force your spouse to stay in a relationship that wants a divorce, when you got another chick on the side. They’re crazy to think this is going to make him want to stay and suit up for them next year. This is sour grapes.

I’m sure that is not uncommon, lol.

The equivalent of missing a wide open layup if we ****ed this up.

 

[flips]

Which is weird because he helps the curve.

 

[flips]

There’s absolutely no way they **** this one up…right??

You really shoulda said "No Jinx"

 

[DrNovaCane]

I’m sure that is not uncommon, lol.

It isn’t that’s why it popped into my head. But it’s still a crazy ask. UW grabbing folks out of portal but they holding him hostage…

What could we have done to **** it up?

 

[JayCane20]

Guessing tampering and tying that to his NIL and if he wants to leave he probably has to pay it back or something of that nature.

No idea what going on but there’s a reason and there’s only 2 teams involved. Wisconsin and Miami.

Need to have sports media folk pick this story up and blast wisc. For it. His agent and family needs to put them on blast too. Josh Pate?!?! Bruce Feldman?!?!

If that happens media will report Mario & UM as a cross between Pol Pot and Stalin

Horton got crystal balled half hour after it was announced to Alabama

But we didn’t cry about it like some *******

He actually got crystal-balled to Alabama before he was officially in the Portal.

Wisconsin trying to **** with us.

I don't pretend to know the laws, but football aside, how can any school block a student from transferring to another college if they are academically qualified at the new school? As far as eligibility is concerned I don't recall ever seeing any player not being able to play with exception of the SEC rule.

My guess is they throw his name in last minute after they attempt to strong arm him into staying for whatever BS is dragging it out to begin with.

Thanks, Dennis!

(nor directed at you, you know I've got nothing but respect for you)

Foot fault.

If they're somehow successful in keeping him out of the winter portal, is there anything that would stop him from simply not enrolling in classes next term at UW and enrolling in classes at UM/portaling here in the Spring?
