re: Official 2024 Ole Miss Football Season Thread | 6-2 SEC: 2-2

It’s good to an extent, but the regulation of it is terrible. These players should be locked in to contracts and shouldn’t just be able to leave on a whim if they have a bad practice. I think that part of this whole thing is absolutely awful. It also allowed for the creation of sleazy unqualified NIL agents who are contacting players that are very uneducated about the whole process. They’re filling the players and families heads with lies and saying they’re looking out for them when in reality they just see these kids as dollar signs. So in reality, both sides are sort of getting screwed over. Of course, it works out great for the high-end stars of the sport, but the average player is most likely going to get screwed thinking the grass is greener and destroy his chance at getting developed by jumping around in hopes of a bigger payday by these clowns. This part really needs to be fixed. I helped ole miss football recruiting in an unofficial role as a student up until graduation and it’s absolutely insane the stories I heard from some of these guys transferring in. It’s unsustainable and unfortunately I don’t think it’ll get fixed until something drastic happens to a kid that leaves him and his family decimated
