Some fans did. Some just railed against the system.
Caleb Downs got the most heat by far. But most of that was at his dad. Antonio Kite got a lot of flak for going to auburn.

Quite the opposite. It’s the fans who think they are entitled to NFL caliber players on the field for nothing more than a scholarship (while coaches are making about 10x what they did a generation ago) and to keep those guys put even if better opportunities arise elsewhere.
College exists to benefit the students, not the fans or coaches.

Maybe Kadyn and Bryce are pulling a Michael Sam?

Folks are clamoring to regulate the current portal and NIL system. Place the same academic standards for entrance and retention on athletes that the regular students have to achieve, and we'll see where all these athletes end up.

They aren't NFL caliber players. The NFL literally does not want them. There is no law that forces them to spend 3 years in college. The NFL is the one who says - we do not want these players. They get coached up for those 3 years, mature physically and THEN the NFL takes them.
Claiming they are NFL talent at this stage is like claiming a tech student is Google caliber talent, but the reality is - if Google wanted them, Google would get them. Google also does not want them until they've been in college at least 3 years.
Beyond that, if they had so much value someone could have and would have capitalized on it years ago. They would have started a league, paid the players enough to convince them to not go to college. Instead, every league that comes up is only able to pay it's players around $50k a year, and that doesn't include any housing, insurance, medical, education, coaching and support systems a college gives.
Even now what is going on won't last forever. Real NIL deals can happen longer term, because the person paying for it gets something out of it. But in case you haven't noticed - the schools aren't the ones paying for a damn thing. All that revenue they make is still going to the schools and none of it is going to the players outside what it was before. Because NIL is not the schools paying for them.
Boosters who are just buying players aren't getting a financial return. There is no big NFL office giving out only a portion of what they take in. There is going to be a limited budget. You are no longer talking about a single coach to pay, you're talking about an entire team.
Meanwhile, no good coach is going to put up with the shite for much less money. They make that amount of money because they do much more work than basically anyone else in the program in terms of what they have manage and so on. They have by far the biggest impact on the program and it's performance.
At best you're going to take away donations to the schools. And that means schools will shut down the programs that don't make money and the scholarships associated with them. And if the fans don't like what's going on, and ticket sales etc starts to fade, then the schools will just get less.
All in all you've managed to screw over 99% of student athletes so 1% of them can make mediocre money. On the bullshite idea that the 1% are the victims and entitled to money used to help fund the other 99%.

If college football suddenly ceased, the NFL would find other ways to develop players (a minor league perhaps) and they would all still end up in the league.
If college football had to be played with players with no trace of NFL ability who would still be students at the university even without football, interest would wane quite a bit.
The multibillion dollar CFB machine needs elite athletes to fire on all cylinders, and a scholarship isn’t enough anymore.

Bama is used to paying players to ride their bench, just to keep them off other teams.
