Urban Meyer Believes There's Serious 'Cheating' In College Football Right Now

By Larry Leo••

In an interview with Dan Dakich, Urban Meyer discussed his concern with the emergence of NIL collectives - programs not affiliated with universities that provide NIL opportunities for student athletes at specific schools...

quote:
“I don’t know,” Meyer said. “I’m not saying it’s all that way, but from my understanding, it’s a fancy word for cheating."

“When I hear that word [collective] I kind of cringe right now and I hear the stories behind it that they’re going to go to donors and boosters and ask for a lot of money and then decide who gets that money based on ability level," Meyer said.

"Which, I think is 1A of the rule of NIL, you can’t do that.”

Interesting to hear Meyer and Saban, two of the biggest cheaters in college football history, bash NIL, but they had not problem paying players when in was illegal that helped pull in the best players in the country every year!

NIL made it ok for every team to pay players. Before you were taking a risk if you were caught paying a player. So if you had sophisticated ways to pay players you had a huge advantage.

There's always been cheating. How the hell do these coaches who leaned on plausible deniability all these years have to nerve to say crap like this now?

Lying bastards lol.

Exactly. His teams were in the protected class for decades and now he has the nerve to talk about cheating? I can’t wait for some school outside the protected class to buy every 5star and whip them all. Where is SMU when you need them?

It’s causing him to have panic attacks and chest pains just watching other coaches perform well.
