I know people that have gone to three in three years.
So not only do we not want to treat college athletes like regular employees, we don't even want to treat them like regular college students.
We talk about the myth of this, like walking around with books.
You can walk around with books and go to as many schools as you want.
But college athletes, so we want to not treat them like people who make money, but then also not treat them like college students.
We want to create this world where they are their own thing that have to be fought against.
And I'm just against that.
And it's a world where they make billions of dollars, billion dollar TV deals.
The only justification I have for any rules I've decided is
We'd like these games to be competitive because that's why, for instance, baseball has a salary cap or, you know, excuse me, basketball, football have salary caps.
So I think you have rules that like let the players make money, live free lives, but also encourage competitive sports.
And that's what I hope they end up doing.
I mean, because notice in none of Donald Trump's provisions or any of the bills have they said that coaches can only work for two schools in five.
And he went went to the White House because Nick Saban and then we'll go.
It's a free market.
I'm getting well, but but not but not for those players.
