Anyone, anywhere, for any reason, can pay players from any school to follow any agenda. Russia can pay East Carolina - or any player at any college anywhere and put their logo on Russian Bombers. China can hire Florida O-lineman to pitch the Renminbi to replace the US dollar as the Peg currency in the world.

Unregulated NIL is complete madness that will totally destroy the integrity of the sport. Congress will have to act and write regulations.

Coaches will no longer control their teams. Whoever is willing to pay the players will have the power.

If you think think paying amateur college players was a good idea you're an idiot. The unintended consequences of this Supreme Court ruling will damage not only college football but higher education itself. All players will now serve who is paying them - not the coach or team they play for.

Goddamn this fricking NIL ruling.

Money really hasn’t started pouring in. Wait until Sony, Apple, Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Cadillac, Adidas, Under Armor, Amazon, etc…. Decide to start backing certain teams on the east and west coast.

Can’t think of a better scenario to get rid of the coaches ability to maintain some semblance of control and discipline than to have a bunch of players making $5K to $10K a month knowing that if they leave and go somewhere else they might be able to double or triple their income.

What a mess and I do think college football will drastically change over the next year or two.

ANd people like you deserve the chaos that is about to ensue. The Supremes ruling on Amateur College athletes NIL is exactly like allowing Judges to receive NIL from any person, corporation, country, or entity to follow their agenda exclusively. Are you really so stupid you don't see how this will destroy the sport in every way? Whoever your favorite team is will no longer be who you think they are. They will be whatever and whoever their sponsor pays them to be - and noone can stop them.

eta - You must be a splattered bug on someone's windshield to be so dense not to see the utter destruction of college sports this ruling will cause.

Poor dumb people tend to be blind to real life consequences of the events in the world around them.

It'll be what it'll be, nothing we can do to change it at this point.

I do think players should be allowed to reap the benefits of the station they've achieved but I also can't argue woth your points that this will fundamentally change the sport and likely for the worst.

However, if I'm being honest, college football ranks pretty far down my list of "concerns" in our ever changing world.

Forrest Gump coined the best reply to you: "Stupid is as stupid does". That phrase fits you to a T!

please....elaborate. I want you to go into detail on how a football player getting sponsored is exactly the same as a judge being sponsored.


How do each impact your life?

I'm not interested in educating morons. When you're team becomes a dysfunctional mess maybe you'll begin to understand. At this moment you don't have enough gray matter to understand.

This is usually the response from someone who was just backed into a corner after realizing he’s a fricking idiot who made a fricking idiotic comparison and can’t figure out how to work around it

Because playing college football has the same consequences as ruling on court cases? One of them is SUPPOSED to be impartial. Hint: it’s not the football player.
