But does that salary cap only limit what players can be paid directly from the team? Or does it limit what a player himself can make with NIL?
Saying players can’t receive NIL money from boosters isn’t even a salary cap. The point was that imposing a cap on earnings isn’t some novel idea the courts would have an issue with

What dumbasses like you apparently still don’t understand is tht the vast majority will demand regulation because otherwise college football won’t survive long term. You 8&4feit fans don’t even care as long as you can buy a title before it’s over.
The portal is the biggest issue to college sports survival.. Not NIL.

It’s not legal though? The whole issue is that it was never supposed to be a recruitment tool. It’s something the players know is an opportunity once they are in college, but it’s not something boosters are supposed to be able to guarantee for recruits.
So it’s not “taking advantage because it’s legal”. It’s literally not legal

No sure that is where the problem lies. I don't think the courts like the NCAA dictating the terms, and indirectly limiting, the amount of money the kids are allowed to make. This rule probably would indirectly limit how much they make.
There is no limit to how much they can make. The limit is in who can make the offers. People associated with the school, aka boosters, are not allowed to do it.

The NCAA acts like they have authority - newsflash for you. They don't any more.

I mean they have authority in the sense of still controlling what is and isn’t allowed for participation in their sanctioned sports. It’s not that they lack the power it’s that they’re spineless

That’s the issue people have. It’s not NiL it’s the idea that the richest schools are just buying the best recruits.

Beat way to do this is to Declare any player that accepts NIL opportunities from any local business or school associated boosters business, before they have been enrolled at a school for a full calendar year, ineligible.

Everything was “ok” until AM went all SMU last cycle.

Do you even know what the NCAA is?

A&M already moved into the "Everyone else does it" defense.

Do I think we are paying players? Absolutely. Do I care? Not really. The NCAA cannot trump state and federal laws. This will even if "enacted" get tied up in court for a long, long while.
NCAA is toothless.

Bama will be fine, since they can go back to paying players the old way.
Sounds good to me.
Are y'all gonna go back to stealing money from cancer kids?

State and federal laws don’t allow boosters to pay kids nor is it legal to pay kids to come to your school, Texas state law included
NIL laws don’t say “anything goes.” That’s just what it’s turned into

You're mad because you can't outspend Aggy under the table anymore.

Are you directly copying and pasting this from LSU fans, or citing from memory?
Again, this rule does not in any way limit the athletes. It limits the schools and boosters. Which they have every right to do.
I've been telling you guys this shite for weeks.

Are you kidding? Tennessee just amended their laws that the collectives can actually interact with the schools.
Like I said, good luck to the NCAA. They lost this fight awhile ago

Alabama recruiting hasn't suffered, so not really sure what your point is.
It's like you guys for some reason believe that you had the only recruiting class last year. Hell, I'm glad it was A&M instead of a team like Georgia or someone else who has been getting good classes. Spreads out the talent, meanwhile Alabama right there, even had a higher average. And it was coming off a historic class in itself.
So maybe it's just about the fact you can't use NIL as a means to recruit directly, there are ways around it, but A&M was too dumb to wait for those ways to kick in.

And that is a distinction without a difference. It is practically impossible to prove any kind of violation. The fact that a kid got paid is irrelevant. You have to go down all sorts of rabbit trails to prove that shite in it ain't happening. Especially not against somebody with some fricking money like Aggy.
I get it. You are frustrated because the under-the-table fiefdom is now not exclusive. This is what would've happened had there been no NCAA Aggy's arse forever.
Welcome to the new reality.
