I say yes. But what is more likely is that Blue Bloods will just buy smaller schools and keep players on those rosters to call up if needed, and to your point, play keep away.

This practice will escalate greatly when they put a cap on what university can spend.

I didn’t even think of that. Crazy. They could pay an NIL with the understand they DONT sign with a school or that they sign with a sun belt school to come up later.

Not sure how they could cap what a university can spend.

NIL deals are between a player and a third party company. The courts have spoken in that they don't believe the NCAA or any organization can limit these contracts. A cap by definition is a limitation and not one on the schools but rather on those 3rd party NIL deals. There's no way a cap would stand.

This is what I thought. Similar to when schools would place players at jucos. It'll just be a feeder for a big school.
