With the new NIL and transfer portal rules, roster tampering, and sports gambling, college athletics could be facing a “perfect storm.”
Kentucky’s athletics director Mitch Barnhart was asked in an interview with CatsPause about the potential “perfect storm” and how college athletics’ current landscape has been referred to as “unsustainable.”
“Unsustainable? That’s a lot,” Mitch Barnhart said. “Really difficult? Absolutely.
“If you’re talking about recruiting, if you’re talking about NIL, if you’re talking about litigation, if you’re talking about budgets, if you’re talking about facilities. When you put it all together, it’s highly difficult,” Barnhart said.
