re: Heard a NIL lawyer on radio yesterday

That NIL lawyer is a typical short sighted idiot that doesn’t give a rat’s arse about the long term future of the players. First of all the NFL doesn’t want these 1 year players. The official NFL advisory committee counsels the players to remain in college and use all of their collegiate eligibility. The NFL owners don’t give a shite about the players, they do care greatly about costs. A kid one year out of high school cannot play in the NFL. (Les Miles was the dumbass that actually said that. ) The NFL owners are not going to waste a very limited spot on the team for a player needing two or three years of development, risking injury, when the NCAA is doing it for them for free. Only about 120 already developed and trained players make the NFL each year…the rest no longer have collegiate eligibility…no education…zilch. ML Baseball and the NBA both have minor leagues. NFL doesn’t want one and the associated costs. NIL has wiped out any pretense of amateur athletics, to keep it fair…why not let the college athletes that don’t make the NFL the option of returning to their college teams if they have eligibility left?

I was told that everything is going to be just fine when I said NIL will be a slippery slope, and ruin the game of college football as we know it.

Glad to see I was wrong.

The 3 year NFL rule would never have stood in a superior court case.

Hasn’t it already been challenged multiple times by Marcus Dupree and Maurice Clarett? And yet it is still here.

The courts upheld the 3 year NFL rule with Maurice Clarett.

feels so awesome for the vast majority of the populace to concede that 2019 LSU was the greatest ever and the last true champion

What’s so many lsu fans won’t concede is few agree and no one gives a shite what you think of that team or season. But everyone is sick of hearing about it every fricking day…

I thought it was a NFL rule that you had to be out of high school for 3 years before you are draft eligible?

Yep. The NFL does very little to develop players. Only about 1% of college players make it into the NFL(most of which come from the top schools), and even then the average career is only 3 years.

They don't want those players. The NFL would be looking at spending a lot of money developing many players because a good bit of them aren't going to work out. You see that now with how many college players have NFL dreams, but then only the few get drafted. The NFL has no interest in footing that bill.

But people for some reason believe they should have the right to force organizations to do whatever. It's ridiculous and it's all a giant anti free market campaign.

Well the main reason the 3 year rule has been in football is because pretty much no kid practically out of high school is physically mature enough to compete with grown arse men that are freaks of nature in the NFL.

Most would find out that they needed college to develop physically before they go tussling with grown men strength.

I’m trying to find it so I can post, but was listening to Sirius XM college radio and this lawyer was on talking about this summers 7/1 changes

He said it’s going to be a dumpster fire and if you think it’s bad now, just wait. It’s just going to be old school where the schools shares revenue and boosters pay behind the scenes.

He also said Jeremiah Smiths team has hired a lawyer to challenge the 3 year rule to go to the NFL and he expects that to go away after he wins his case. Said it’s a slam dunk because the NCAA doesn’t have the balls to challenge

Also said anyone that challenges the sec to sec transfer rule will win.

I feel like every time we try to make the game better we keep loosening the rules.

So imagine all the NIL shite and unlimited transfers, now with players being able to go to the the NFL after 1 year and go from SEC to SEC


What a disaster

Why? Mizzou was not able to recruit before NIL and the new transfer rule change took effect. Some of the top football programs have been fighting for a playoffs spot last year. Oklahoma, LSU, and Alabama are some of the teams that failed to make it last season. This is good for lesser known schools like Ole Miss and Mizzou to be challenging top football teams for playoff spots.

Why would anything be needed under the table? Boosters can pay off in the open and say it's NIL, make up any excuse.
I've been saying it's going to go this route. Pay all athletes, male and female, equally out of the Athletic department. set up NIL deals for the most desirable ones and pay additional in the open.
