So for an 80 man roster you are talking 400 million a year lol.

For some people it is a lot of money, for others it is not. Elon Musk, with a net worth of 722 billion, could give each player on Bama's roster 5 million a year for 1,375 years. That is with a 105 man roster.

I think he likes Alabama football too.

Please read it. It is important.

1 free transfer. 8 game penalty after that. 5 years of eligibility total no waivers.


There are ways to make this right in short order if the people in charge actually want to.

But they don’t

Umm, I don't like that. I say give each one 5 million a year and make it an ironclad agreement.

If they can't survive and hold on at one school for 4 years, they just don't get to play football anywhere.

Take the time to read it because it makes a lot of sense. The schools wouldn't even have to really pay the money out of their own coffers.

It could all just be NIL money earned from the name, image, and likeness of each player.

If every school could simply pay each player a yearly sum of 5 million dollars, that would be great.

No matter how good or bad the player is perceived to be, no matter what position they play, even the practice squad players get 5 million a year.

With 105 players, that is only 525,000,000 a season, which is not a lot of money really. Every team should be able to do that.

Then the players won't have to live in abject and extreme poverty with not even enough food to eat or clothes they have to buy at thrift stores or find in dumpsters like many have had to do in the past.

Everything will settle back down and this crazy madness of the portal situation, etc... will be a thing of the past.

Once again, players will choose what team they want to play for because of the love of the state or team or coaches or school.

If this solution comes to fruition, I want full credit for it.
