its the weirdest thing to me on this board seeing people act surprised that cfb players were paid under the table by boosters/big money alums. Its extremely naïve to think that most every power 5 school's boosters/big money alums weren't doing this prior to NIL.

That's why the comments about NIL "leveling the playing field" are so dumb.

The big dogs will continue to be the big dogs, they just pay openly now.
