been published and so I’m not alleging you recited the plan incorrectly, is a laugher.

How much a school helps players get N.I.L. cash will become a key criterion in the recruiting process.

Once players can get money, there will be no way to stop the floodgates. And, as I’ve stated before, it will not be good for the locker room. Will linemen kill themselves every play to protect a QB who’s got 6 figures in N.I.L. money and they’ve only got a few grand apiece? If collegiate athletics are going to be about money, they are going to be about money.

I’d advocate for a set stipend per player that is taken out of a gross sponsorship budget of some kind.

Huge reason: Title IX.

If there is institutional involvement, NIL becomes a Title IX issue, plain and simple. And the women's sports simply won't command anywhere near the money that football and even men's basketball will.

1NDGal, I am going to go easy on you here and just say that I don't think that you thought that one out. That is a very, very, very poor question for a variety of reasons. Just very poor.

words for a reason and you re-wrote them. I also know that it only takes a few bad apples to create a bad situation.

The “haves and have-nots” environment that unfettered N.I.L. will create must be acknowledged.


your thought was complete bull

if you chose your words carefully and gave them some thought, I can only assume that you have no idea what you're talking about.

When it's time to compete, it's time to compete. There is a hell of a lot more at stake than someone's endorsements, for God's sake.


Oh no.....
