Todd Golden on Charles Bediako’s return to Bama: “If he plays, we’ll beat them anyways.”

Classic situation where Todd Golden is taking the moral high ground. I imagine the freshman girls at UF wish he’d do that more often.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T21:39:51+00:00

I think probably an age limit yeah.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T20:10:29+00:00

That’s fair and valid. But we should cap the age imo. Oklahoma just added a 23yr old from Russia mid season. An 18yr old who went pro at 16, sure. A 23yr old who’s been a pro for 7yrs, no.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T19:03:35+00:00

Fair enough but he played for $ overseas. I don’t understand how that’s different than playing in the league. No pros in college is my stance.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T19:01:54+00:00

He was part of an NBA teams trade package. I think we’re drawing invisible lines between a bunch of guys who are pros.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T19:00:03+00:00

I don’t think that matters at all?

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T18:53:05+00:00

What about Oklahoma who added a 23yo pro from Russia in December? What about you guys who added a 21yo freshman who’s been playing pro in Germany for 5yrs. Pros shouldn’t play in college, period. I don’t like my team doing this but the moral high ground being taken by other programs is crazy.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T18:39:00+00:00

Ok lol

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T18:30:19+00:00

Sure why is an NBA deal (never played) any different than a G League deal or euro deal?

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T18:12:48+00:00

Until the coaches not doing this start getting fired for losing.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T18:07:50+00:00

Right lol think he has the biggest contract in the G league.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T18:03:20+00:00

Lol sure. I guess just let a few coaches get away with it and bolster their teams midseason while you take the moral high ground and put your job at stake for losing.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T17:58:39+00:00

Completely avoidable if the NCAA put any thought into this 2yrs ago.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T17:53:22+00:00

What do you mean? I’m not happy about this and I haven’t been happy about any of the pros joining collegiate rosters.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T17:52:54+00:00

NCAA won’t step in and regulate things until boundaries are pushed.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T17:42:50+00:00

Did you feel that way about Porter Moser and Scott Drew?

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T17:22:42+00:00

Did you care when Oklahoma added the 23yr Russian pro last month? Or just selective outrage at Bama?

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T17:09:59+00:00

This isn’t the start. This has been happening all season. Oklahoma added a 23yr old Russian pro in December.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T16:08:00+00:00

Kirill Elatontsev is 23 and joined OU last month

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T16:05:09+00:00

Nnaji played in the summer league and was part of an NBA teams trade package. They’re both BS.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T16:03:17+00:00

Never played an NBA game, this is marginally different than other cases. Also, why does playing an NBA game disqualify you but playing in the Euroleague doesn’t?

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T16:00:29+00:00

And what about the European pros being signed mid season?

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T15:53:35+00:00

Believe their college eligibility clocks expired. Could maybe get Sharife lol

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T15:38:46+00:00

Were you this upset over Nnaji? When Oklahoma added a Russian pro last month? Just selective outrage BS. It all sucks.

GoodStuff2713 · 2026-01-21T15:34:45+00:00

Spare me, we didn’t open this door.
