Loyalty????!! This is a business; there was no contract, and the QB backed out. Good on him! Remember D1 scholarships are year to year. The school has never been loyal to the players!
Remember less than 1 percent of all student athletes are on any type of athletic scholarship. The school is pretty loyal to the athletes. Most of the time if an athlete loses their scholarship it's for none performance related reasons or for something that was written into the scholarship.
Blame the NCAA. All they had to do was either pay the players or not penalize them so harshly for receiving money from the outside. I remember Terrelle Pryor getting in trouble for selling his own stuff in exchange for Tattoos. They dropped the ball big time
People saying this is the first time seeing this have already forgotten the Jayden Rashada issue at Florida last year. Rashada even has an ongoing lawsuit against UF.
You’re asking loyalty but what about a man’s handshake and your word that he’ll be paid. Thanks to the players they gain money and the recognition it’s only fair that they get paid. Especially as football is a dangerous game anything can happen.
The coach lied? The agent was lazy, this should have been fixed weeks ago. And the "collective" sounds cheap. OK you claim the coach exceeded his authority, but what about now, R U too cheap to put up 100K? You are undefeated, what more do you want? So, in addition to a flawed coach and agent, we have a stupid and cheap collective. The other schools are laughing at you.
If they made the playoffs as the group of 5 team they would make a lot more than 100k. Why risk that plus the bad name they will be given to other potential transfers.
No I understand the situation He’s right you’re paying these players who have no allegiance or ties to the schools outside of money and when something doesn’t go their way or something gets messed up they’ll just up and leave screwing their teammates

Their all american wideout was half speed routes and almost? Intentional drops last (3rd) game and probably foreshadowed what was on deck this week. Two drops were for touchdowns.
We need to stop bashing the players… coaches get paid millions and colleges do not guarantee scholarships.. Most people don’t realize that scholarships are year to year and the school can pull a scholarship whenever they want..
This is the definition of MESSY. Hard to believe nobody could find a solution and both sides take a loss. The agent should be fired…he’s hired to handle business
I like how the agent is telling people on what was promised and not being delivered but takes not accountability in the situation that he messed up with not having the agreed terms in writing. My opinion will change if they did this on purpose so there's no paper trail on what was agreed and leaving them with leverage to ask for more money if Sluka plays really well. Other that this, Sluka should sue the agent for gross negligence.
Only the icebreaker. If you think the top programs aren’t offering their rivals and opponents players during the season. You probably think the government isn’t lying to you either.
I don't like what college football has become...Paying players, all the weird conference stuff, firing coaches all the time, etc. But on the other hand, if you're 20 years old and you make a few million in college, you're set. The idea of retiring at 21 sounds great.
A learning lesson in this mess. I would fire his mgt representatives because they should have guided him through the process and get a signed agreement before committing to UNLV. Get it in writing before you commit.
I can't wait until the week before the playoffs when some star player tells his coach he will skip the playoffs unless he gets a bonus payment in advance
Vegas has become a town of BS. I’ve lived here 10 years and it is RARE that someone does what they say, especially when it comes to money. It sucks that even at this level there is BS.
True. But UNLV stiffing it's prized incoming QB1 transfer...? They could have gotten the deal done on a paper napkin or an assistant coach's word. They chose not to do it. I don't blame the kid for leaving...but he needs to get it in writing next time.
The oc is a liar period. Nothing on the kid or the agent. The HC too he knows dam well that kid isnt coming there for free when at least 5 other bigtime schools were trying for his services schools that would've actually made sure he got his
I know if Tom was offered a certain amount of money by ESPN and it wasn't held up on their end, I guarantee he wouldn't keep working for the company for the other people on the company so things continued to go well. It's really not any deeper than that. Don't be a hypocrite. As soon as your check came up short you wouldn't work another show.
All UNLV football players receive the same NIL amount with the exception of Ricky White the All-American. UNLV NIL collective does everything in writing.
His agent did a poor job representing him. What contract isn’t put in writing BEFORE transferring to UNLV. Sluka did the right thing. If you good at something never do it for free.
I believe UNLV. A lot of what Sluka says doesn't make sense. If he had 25 Nil offers why would you pick the shakiest offer. What was the payment schedule? How was it not in writing? The Nil office says the Kid never contacted them for the payment. HOW WOULD YOU SHOW UP AT SCHOOL in August for workouts and not get your first payment. Why is espn ignoring Pete Thamel's FULL REPORT. They just say the school lied and ripped off the kid. It sounds like it wasn't a NIL offer but an old fashioned under the table payment. This kid is from a rich family in Locust Valley Long island. His dad is very sophisticated. He doesn't want the $100,000 because he was trying out for the power 5 and a few million.
No offense to the guy, but Sluka currently has a 44% completion percentage through these first three games. Where is this dude gonna land? Back at Holy Cross?
@@MattBuild4 yet the guy who replaced him Hajj-Malik Williams is also a dual threat is completing 70.5 of his passes and averaging higher yards per pass

New era. He delivered on his part (transferring in; showing up early, working out hard; learning a new system; leading his team to 3-0; generating revenue for the school)...and the school apparently did not do its part.
Don’t tell kids your gonna pay em and then dont do what u promised…..I bet this happened so many times he the only kid that decided or had the option to do something about it 🤷🏾♂️
100,000 at age 23 invested could result in retiring at age 40 instead of age 60, regardless of what your job is. That's life changing money for a working class person!
I don't believe for a second that Sluka was promised any crazy amout of money. I think his parents simply see an opportunity for their child to make money by sitting. nothing more nothing less.
100K for a starting QB at a D1 school that's 3-0 is peanuts. Even if they didn't offer him that, they should help him get a NIL deal (via local businesses) paying at least 3 or 4x that. That's today's NIL universe.
I understand the stance that Sluka took, he was verbally promised for said amount by a team representative, yet he walks out on his school, team mates. Personally, i do not like students getting paid to play.
The issue was that we KNEW that these colleges were paying students but it kept being said that it wasn't. If they would have just allowed these students to get paid then it would have never been the portal.
If I were the UNLV coach, I would open the next team meeting with all the particulars of this case. Hopefully, Sluka is in the room so that his teammates can do whatever they need to do. College football was much better before NIL and the targeting rule changes. These players don't deserve a dime more than what they were getting, which was free tuition, room and board, and an education that they otherwise would not have qualified for.
college football has always evolved. some people thought the athletic scholarship would be the end of college sports as colleges can recruit ringers to win for their teams. People will get over it and still watch
These players are the only reason NCAA makes a penny & the biggest revenue draw for their schools. They definitely deserve to be paid a portion of the profits generated from their talents.
The NCAA needs to realize that NIL is a disaster and go back to the old days. These players are entitled to nothing. They're in school to get an education and try to win their schools championships like all of the proud players who came before them.
Lol as a former college football player who played at a D1 SEC level, you sound like a moron. I got taken advantage of, I am glad the next generation is not. You must be a right wing lunatic
They go back to the old days and schools will just form their own league. NCAA has little power over this and it’s all their fault as they’ve had decades to address the situation in an equitable way.
they realized it for years and did everything they could to prevent it from happening (why do you think they were adamant about not paying players) they were sued, criticized you name it and now you want them to do something about it? they knew what was going to happen and it did.
