Plaintiff lawyers in House v. NCAA have filed a motion to declare that MMR partners like Learfield and Playfly are not "associated entities" and their deals would be exempt from the College Sports Clearinghouse. They also want apparel companies exempted.

Money makes the world go round …

Ross Dellenger of Yahoo explains it: This move could open the door for schools - already using MMR partners to redirect millions to rosters - to avoid submitting many of those deals through the NIL Go clearinghouse.

So even less structure.

Yep.

People don’t want to hear this and I’m going to get downvoted all to s**t, like I care, but the only fix for this is collective and contractual.

This is what fans thought would make the game better… instead it will get shittier and shittier.

"...shittier and shitter..."

This is the first offseason in my lifetime that I havent followed recruiting and / or portal. I barely read any spring practice reports.

People will say its because my team currently sucks (it does). But I say that game has simply become uninteresting for me. The same thing happened during my teenage years with the NFL. I just slowly over time stopped caring.

Sigh.

I don’t think they’ve figured out it’ll be hard to fund NIL when the stands are half full and nobodys watching on tv.
