Everybody now throwing in a $20 spot for NIL collective - just bleeding the common folk slowly so you can win. It’s frees up money for facilities.

This is the part that genuinely pisses me off.

The common fan is already watching the games (giving you the ratings you need to justify your TV contracts), the common fan is already buying your merchandise, the common fan is paying for tickets (which require donations far beyond the ticket prices just for the privilege of buying the tickets), fans are already paying for parking at the games, fans are already the ones who prop up the whole damn system with our irrational interest in the sport, but they still have their hand out. The universities still walk down the sidewalk with their little tin cup shaking around coins looking for more. "How else can we frick our fans out of money" is the #1 job interview question for any new AD hire in modern college football.
