They can't make him stay, and they know that. This is about NIL rights, which if what they are leaking is correct, they may be able to retain. Then Miami will have to figure some way to get him paid.
So Duke is going to pay him per the contract if they want to keep his NIL rights? No they're not.

There's literally nothing they can do and they're embarrassing themselves.

If players want to leave, let them leave. That is the cleanest way to do it and I'm glad Mario operates this way. The easiest fix to this, without collective bargaining and/or making athletes employees of these institutions is to not allow contracts to be enforceable until the transfer portal is closed. It has to be all 1 year deals because there's no way to hold anyone to a multi year deal attached to voluntary enrollment at a school that they can leave at any time. Or the enforcement of eligibility after transferring being limited to 1 time and/or sitting out years. That's the only avenue to slow it down and enforce anything.

If they enforce this and make him stay at the school, he could collect $4M and go out there and throw 15 interceptions in a row on purpose. If someone doesn't want to be somewhere, it does no one any good in trying to force it.

It kinda seems these universities want to leave a paper trail so when things change in the NIL world, they can point to certain cases to move the needle

Especially since there can be a world where one of these kids picks a school and like many other college students decides that school is not the place they want to be and therefore transfer to another school. My kid out of school went to what they thought was their dream school but after a year there decided it wasn't the right place so they transferred to another school that was a better fit for them. Obviously that isn't the case here but it can happen which is why the NCAA has a rule that the schools have to enter them in the portal and cannot force them to stay.
 
I can't wait for all of the articles about GT tampering and how evil they are just like we say with Miami and Mensah. Oh wait I'm sure he entered this morning and picked GT sight unseen within hours without any prior contact with GT.
Just said in another thread…GT just signed an IU player the afternoon after the natty and we over here fighting tampering allegations lmfao

And no mention of the fee either. Strange that.
