Paraphrasing: We need that new practice facility... but not before getting the NIL right.

I hate what NIL has done to college athletics.

Why? You like schools like Alabama handing out Chargers without consequences?

Hell yeah... It's like the old west. Kids that had nothing can buy Momma a house right now, not if they're lucky in four years, right now!

You act like those are the only two possibilities. Ever notice how baseball doesn't have those issues? Ever wonder why?

When the NIL started I said programs will stop using booster money to compete on facilities and will use booster money to pay directly for players.

Facilities have to be adequate but not lavish. Players care about which school pays the most.

I can't say I hate NIL, without NIL we wouldn't have Suni Lee or any other olympic athletes since they get paid if they win in the olympics. Somehow NIL needs to retain those people while also limiting what these athletes can get for fairness. I do believe athletes should be able to make their own money while in college, where as it stood before NIL they could hardly do anything legally to make their own extra money. They were limited by just what scholarships would cover, and not much beyond that.

Pro facilities are not as nice as college facilities. NIL is making us more like the pros except we also have free agency.
