That's all I want in the NIL era. I don't care if you are a 6-star athlete... players only looking for a suitcase of money can go elsewhere.





No offense, but that is a very naive way to think. I can promise you thata every single one of our two deep is getting paid and most, if not all would leave if we gave them nothing.

Just because money is a part of it does not mean that it is the entire picture. But if you take money completely out of the picture, they would all leave. (Or most of them) They might take a bit less to come here, but money has been introduced and it will play a large role for the best players.

When so many on this board and the Rant were arguing, I tried to say that it was a genie they did not want out of the bottle. Now I dare say, you will find very few people who will admit they were all for NIL. Some will argue they were for NIL but with restrictions, but you never know what you will get when you argue for change. Same goes for the transfer portal.

It's a conundrum.

I argued against it because there would obviously be no way to regulate it and no way to put the genie back.

But I argued for it because the ncaa can't take away someone's rights (i.e. Sony Michel's ability to make music and profit from it.).

Blocking NIL was wrong. But the ncaa knew why they were fighting that battle.

CFB without school pride or meaningful rivalries is lame as hell. If this is true (I don't think it is), then I need a new hobby.
