The Transfer Portal is a separate concept from NIL.


I don't know why you are getting downvoted for this. NIL is not main the issue here as it relates to Kiffin's comments, its clearly the transfer portal. No portal and boosters of other schools aren't offering NIL deals to transfers knowing they lose a year of eligibility.

The portal is also the only part of the equation that the NCAA and its member schools can control. The supreme court has a already given a de facto ruling that will severely limit any attempts at restricting athletes rights to their NIL and at the very least tie up the attempts at restrictions in litigation for years.

If anything, the NCAA needs to lessen its restrictions on NIL that prevent it from being used as a condition to attend a certain school. Remove restrictions and, an NIL contract could be written that prevents a kid from leaving without voiding said contract. That is currently impermissible under the NCAA regs.
