re: Why are some fan bases scared of the NCAA losing power?

The part of the NCAA lawsuit that I don't like isn't about the NCAA losing power. I simply believe that enforcing a prohibition on paying recruits to come to a school would be good for college football. I think it's a good rule that should be enforced strongly. I'm disappointed that pay for play is going to be how it works in college football going forward.

It will only be a matter of time before companies uses the teams as ways of advertising (like they ruined bowl games). Then the teams will matter even less. Recruits now just about pick schools on NIL money over anything. The Parading of players like Dart getting to use jets is just a taste of what is to come. Its like boosters on steroids. The companies will be controlling the game by pushing money around or threatening to take it away.

The players will just follow money around and the companies will control the schools by giving them the money to pay for recruits. The NCAA will be irrelevant and take any deals the schools and companies offer to keep some power and help fund academics.
