NIL is no one's business but the athletes and those who pay it.

Oh great, another thread where someone pretends the government forcing one party of an agreement to ignore the standards they thought were needed is somehow part of the free market.

The lawyers JUDGE SHOPPED and thus you can bet judges were paid off. I will never watch CFB again, its a joke, as is anyone who doesn't understand that with no rules you have anarchy, no coach can disciple anyone, only idiots do not understand this has destroyed the game.

The NCAA (a liberal mindset front office who threatened to not allow North Carolina to host basketball sites in the NCAA Tourney....that all you need to know, lol) were in on this imho, they informed the schools & coaches wrongly they needed to go down this path. There was a MUCH BETTER PATH, I could have shown it to them for free.

The NCAA Members schools should have all in unison stated, starting next year, or whenever these 4 year scholarships that were promised runs out, there will no longer be any scholarships handed out. Young men will have to find a way to finance there own wats to college, and if they get paid by any outside group we will no longer see them as eligible for college sports.

In about 15 minutes after that THREAT, the Lawyers suing would have gotten an earful from almost everyone sayin g, you dummies, you have just taken away very valuable scholarships and chances at a life changing education from thousands of minorities yearly. After about 2-3 hours they would have announced all law suites are being dropped.

The NCAA Front office knew what they were doing, the Lawyers judge shopped to get TWO ACTIONS that the knew would create de facto free agency in college, scholarship deals were now not binding AND NIL.

I say act now NCAA threaten to take away all, scholarships and mandate all players pay their own way to college. If not I refuse to watch this BS.

You guys who watch, and like this BS are jokes

It's basic civics that you should have learned in high school.

You've been programmed that government should force everyone to the left, or force everyone to the right, when you should have learned to ask if it was a proper function of government to start with.

You think the government knows best about everything, despite knowing all the corruption and everything else that goes on. Because for some reason I guess the next guy to get elected is going to be different and he will rule and force everyone to do the things you want them to do. Always fearful of what other people may do if they had freedom.

I think the people know what is best for them and unless they are harming other people should be free to do so.

We are not the same and I will for sure take it to the grave.

Then let's see some signed contracts and a decent CBA that holds the standard for both sides, azz hat.

All that effort wasted into typing out a long idiotic take that has never made sense and never will.

At the end of the day….its very simple. You want to control how much money someone can make.

I support the right of a business/organization to set their own standards including pay if that is what you mean. That's how it works in a free country. I don't have to agree with it, I just have to respect their right to do so.

When state governments are making these millionaires' money tax free, then it is absolutely the taxpayer's business.

When the schools are begging/ humiliating the average Joe fan to donate to the school's collective, it's absolutely our business. When we stop viewing en masse, your little Marxist arse will find out about what free enterprise really means.

I just don't understand why you're here, or why you think any one gives a shite about your opinion on anything?

I couldn't imagine searching the internet for a big10 forum, take the time to sign up and then post there. Go. Away.

Athletes were being compensated before NIL, so let's not pretend this is all new. Bob Knight said the top teams paid more, and it's the same now. The biggest difference is that players can transfer without sitting out, which means they earn more. ADs and coaches do it, and no one complains. If you can't keep up, then drop down a division. That is all there is to it.

How do you regulate greed to keep the product from eating itself? I know how professional sports regulate selfishness. Why in the world would professional sports want to put guardrails on the bidding process?

I doubt it can be regulated. The NIL will always be separate from the contracts that will tie players to a program. Agents and athletes will never give that up.

Congress made this open season, and they can shut the barn door. If you can't play by the rules given, then you don't play. It would take a high school and college player and his intrepid agent about 3 seconds to figure that dilemma out.

The only issue college football has been missing is the rules. Imagine that.
