re: Honest discussion about NIL. Would love to hear thoughts.

The schools just hate revenue sharing. It costs them money. It’s the only way out though. Share revenue, collectively bargain, sign contracts. Works in the NFL.

Oh. It was never NIL. It’s been pay for play the whole time.

My you rot in h3ll Ed O’bannon.

There is no revenue to share unless you want to take it away from all the other sports because there are only 1 or 2 sports that draw income.

You'll be removing the scholarships of thousands and thousands of kids across the country, screwing over 99% of NCAA athletes for the benefit of less than 1% of them.

Because all the money that is earned is put back into the program itself as well as other sports. In exchange, they are given an education worth probably 6 figures or close to it. Top Notch medical care. About 25k a year in cash, housing, food and in many schools coaching and a support staff to help them launch a career in the NFL.

It's 100% voluntary and if someones was to try and spend their own money to get these kinds of benefits, they'd be looking at spending probably between 500k to $1 million or more depending on the quality of training and mentoring they bought. Most of them down there at Rex Kwon Do and Football facility.

The NFL doesn't want them, and they have no draw to viewers unless they are playing for their school. Other leagues try to start up, offer no fricking support, no housing, no real training, and pay their players around 50k a year in taxable money, so around say 40k take home. When they get about 25k in cash before taking the rest into account.

What needs to be done is for the government to butt the frick out of it, and the schools tell the kids - you can take it or leave it. Nobody is forcing them to go, there are thousands of kids out there who would love for the schools to "take advantage of them" in their place.

frick entitlement society.
