This genie ain’t ever going to go back in the bottle no matter how many fans demand it on message boards, because the courts are 100% on the players’ side here. It is what it is. We adapt or die. It’s that simple.

Courts can dictate that players have the right to make money off their NI&L, but they can't dictate the contractual obligations between schools, players, the NCAA, and sponsors.

I've said it umpteen times: the entire rosters of the Patriots, Titans, and Falcons didn't suddenly become free agents when their coaches left. Alabama's roster shouldn't be either. It makes absolutely no sense to give college kids a benefit that the pros don't even have.

Amateurism is completely gone anyway, so NIL is just this stubborn refusal to accept reality and it's created a system that is anarchic and terribly imbalanced. College football should probably just take on a fully pro model at this point with contracts, salaries, salary cap, trading, etc.
