Right but lets not all rush to the NCAA after crapping on the organization for decades. Their rules don't have much relevance anymore after Alston vs. NCAA and the organization itself has said colleges should pay more attention to state laws rather than NCAA directives from here on out.

And more telling, there is a suit winding through the courts at the moment (House vs. NCAA) that is trying to overturn all NIL restrictions. The NCAA has tried to shut it down twice but been rejected by Federal judges.

I understand what comprises an NIL Collective. I simply point to the fact that the NCAA has had a long standing rule in place that has nothing to do with the SCOTUS NIL ruling. It is perfectly legal and allowable to for an NIL collective to negotiate an name, image, likeness contract with a student athlete. The NCAA does not allow a representative of a member school (boosters) to be involved with recruitment or offer an inducement to a prospective student-athlete in exchange for the signature with the member school. NIL collectives can not be involved in the recruitment process.


Lol okay? Again, the below is legal, so there is technically nothing wrong with what the aTm coach said

quote:

A school-specific NIL Collective is typically made up of deep-pocketed fans and alumni, and they are run independently of the school that they are affiliated with. They work by pooling funds from a wide swath of donors and businesses to create NIL activities for a school’s student-athletes.


But please by all means, continue thinking this video will have consequences for aTm if that makes you happy

I will concede he probably lied about that, I would be fairly certain he probably knows what the various players are paid out of NIL. But again, that point doesnt matter, he did not say we dont use NIL, he just stated that we didnt buy our class with it.

Until the rant comes up with a way to prove that all 20+ people picked A&M only because of the money they were offered, he can stand by the statement that we didnt buy the class.

Maybe not but it still makes Jimbo’s little dramatic tirade even funnier.

I haven't said shite about the video clip and I've never once mentioned consequences of any kind.

No one cares if A&M uses NIL.

They care that A&M may have broken rules by telling recruits exact monetary details of guaranteed NIL deals to entice them to sign with A&M.


The most important thing Jimbo denied was that A&M was using NIL as a recruiting tool.


The violation in the video is not major but that a coach on video is so excited and eager to commit the violation in talking NIL "if you come here" to recruits sure doesn't support the picture Jimbo painted of how seriously A&M has taken not using NIL as a recruiting tool.

We all know this place is more Jerry Springer than a forum for rigorous intellectual discovery. I just didn't expect folks to be clinging to Nick Saban's skirts as he talks out of both sides of his mouth.

His statement is something we knew all along but had nothing to back it up.... until now

Not the point. Saban didn't make A&M do anything. They did it on their own.

And for what? 8-4-1? If you're gonna pay them, at least hire a coach who can do better than that.

This bad for Sabin too, once Jimbo has to answer and Sabin can't contain himself from commenting Jimbo will let the dirt out on Sabin
