But I've been told by the experts on this board that the NIL would level the playing field and Bama's reign of terror would come to a screeching halt.
I don't know where you have seen that concept but guys on smaller schools message boards are concerned this may be the death nail for them all the teams like them.

Obviously, Young had an agent help him through the negotiating process.Which is legal as long as the agent is only involved in the player's NIL process. Does anyone honestly believe that this agent will now disappear? The door has been opened for agents to be hired by players & that is a door leading to a big black hole.

It will be, now with NIL, those smaller school players are not going to have the market value a big time player at an SEC, ACC, BIG 10, etc. that is the reality.
The notion that schools like ULL, LA Tech, ULM in Louisiana should have a say on what LSU does, or the SEC is no longer tenable. It really made no sense even before NIL. You throw in the Transfer Portal and you know have basically semi-Pro Sports in leagues like the SEC, Big10, ACC, Big12, Notre Dame, etc.
I can see the P5 forming their own league and the rest of football being in different leagues. The NCAA is neutered, it is now a market base model and programs that can generate millions of revenues will form their own league. Teams in the Group of 5 that say well what about us? Well if your programs can generate Revenues from TV, NIL, etc similar to us, your in. So nobody is being restricted, but as long as the market is free, it is going to separate programs in different leagues, current P5 vs. Non P5, etc.
