Remember when high schoolers or college players could go to NBA after one year got started? How long was it until the NBA teams started signing experienced Euro players because the kids weren't polished and weren't getting trained as they used to be when they played 3-4 years in college?
Yes you would be getting paid. One unintended consequence is how this will fracture locker rooms. Everyone isn't exactly pulling in the same direction.

Not true. My teams in the ACC and I think players moving from team to team every year then opt out of the bowl games is ruining college football. No respect for the school the fans the coaches the teammates it makes it all about self and thats. The comradery and passion that made college ball more fun to watch than the NFL and now it's just about how much money a player can squeeze out before leaving a team high and dry to chase another dollar. I like that it's more unpredictable and that you don't have the same teams winning every year but this isn't the way to make that happen.
This has nothing to do with the SEC, this is killing college football! If you want to pay players ok, but there needs to be a cap and not pay millions and millions for kids that are straight out of high school. The kids are not hungry for the game when they make 2 million a year freshman year of college! Big money is killing the game. Just start calling it NFL jr! Over paid players that don’t care about the game!
Football is very important. anyone who plays football is a major asset to society. We need to pay all players regardless of age. If you play football you should make at least 5million a year
I think with the rev shareing is going to put a cap on it all. Schools aren't going to pay kids twice. I think nil is going to be what it was supposed to be some sandwich shop is going to pay a kid for a Comercial
I think that this is going to bring more balance to college football and the sec will not be as much as a overly competitive then they use to be. Why you think Nick got out. He knew that there was not going to be a competitive edge anymore for alabama!!!
Really it’s because there is no allegiance to the schools anymore. 1 bad year or a better NIL deal and they are happy to leave their team. I’m glad it’s distributing the talent but hate to see it turn more like the NFL
B1G now 5-1 against the best of the SEC this post season. Only a top 20 Mizzou clipped unranked Iowa by 3! Thanks NIL! 3 of the last 4 national title teams are current B1G members.
@ericwren2507 bama wasn't paying kids. Yall reaching like a mf. Aj was riding around Tuscaloosa in Benz? Tj yeldon and Mark Ingram was riding lamborghini? Oh trent Richardson obviously was walking around with a $250,000 diamond chain and wasn't taking care of them 3 kids he had at home huh? Wait Justin Jefferson and j. Chase was riding around death valley in them new range rovers huh? Yall cap like a mf.
A monster has been created. Need a cap and the cap needs to be low so these kids still work for the next level. At this point I would bet NFL players wish they had college eligibility
I agree that there should be some sort of NIL compensation program, BUT.......there needs to be some legal guidelines in place before it gets ridiculously out of hand.
Eventually, the bottom is going to drop off of this thing! I was for the students athletes, making money to share in profits with the schools, but it is getting out of hand. It’s the wild,Wild West with no accountability from the student athletes. Some of these kids are transferring every year and some of them are doing it without even playing, but collecting money from the school. You used to go to school and play sports so that you can get an education. Now they are going to school to play for money without even any concern for getting an education, which is sad because most of them will never be a pro athlete.
You’re acting like a US college education for a regular degree is a big deal. It’s a scam you learn essentially nothing if you’re not going for a specialty degree. Let’s not start this “their students first non-sense” college football is essentially NFL with the amount of time these kids have to put into the game
I'm hearing from a many of a college football fans that been supporting colleges all across the country that they are basically done with going to the games and supporting watching these players getting paid the amount there getting and then they turned around and have the transfer portal to add fuel to the fire , fans are done the stadiums will become half full in the short near future
Can u do video on your opinion on Nebraska’s successful transfer portal so far? (#6 ranked nationally, #1 in Big 10 per 247). Starting keeping up w college football this year & u make it real easy & entertaining!
Nebraska has a great coach in Matt Rhule and he will have them being one of the best teams in the country within the next couple of years. I myself am a lifelong Tennessee Volunteer but I like what the Huskers have cooking and will be pulling for them.
Welcome to the new nfl!!! These universities and coaches and ncaa people have been making money for years I don’t want to hear it. I’m going to enjoy it!!!

@A_A_fatdad well it's true, you're not the only conference now. That paid his players like you did in the past the stockpile your talent. No it's legal. Powerful Midwest teams like Michigan, Ohio state so on and so forth. Have the richest alumni in the world
Sooooo, all of the under the table payments to family members of players, and the BILLIONS colleges were raking in wasn't CHEATING.... Most coaches, colleges are mad that they have to share the wealth. Sad
Carson Beck doesn't take time to watch film..That's because he's been paid and doesn't need to try harder say for a championship... The "O" linemen should blackmail the QBs for protection money hahaha... THE "O"LINE MAFIA hahaha
Miss. paid a reserve Michigan DB to enter the portal in the 2022-2023 season, kiffin is without a doubt a hypocrite. The team in the SEC crying the most cause the B10 team by in large have the bigger bag now the SEC teams no longer have the advantage of paying under the table.
@@donniejuanexactly. These southern schools had it made when they were slipping players and their family tens of thousands of dollars under the table and could keep players that they want. Schools like Ole Miss, Arkansas and Tennessee had been thought to be big dogs in the south, but they are quickly learning that they won’t be able to maintain the pace of NIL money that groups connected to Ohio State, Michigan, Texas, Oklahoma, Texas A&M and Notre Dame can put up year after year. Even Georgia and Alabama are going to have some difficulties when they realize that their fanbase and donor base isn’t nearly what they think it is.
@@Godsbackhand7 all schools did it. the SEC aing start dominating til recently.. all teh blubloods from Michigan Nebraska Notre Dame Penn St OU Texas USC was doing it and it was all good. Mia was doing it in the Big East FL St in the ACC whyu no bitchin bout it til Bama and the Sec took over?
Player transfers should come with return transfer fees. A qb leaves school A for $1M to school B. School B pays school A $2M transfer fee. There has to be a payback system.
NCAA didn't allow this. The NCAA tried to protect against this, but lost the capability to manage due to lawsuits. The schools didn't care to help...this is why we are where we are. The NCAA was not perfect and needed to change its way, but the schools and lawsuits to completely destroy the system and start over is why we are left with what we got. The schools and coaches dug their own grave and now are complaining about it.
Whats crazy is Ole Miss spent more on NIL than Ohio State and their coach (Kiffin) is the one who went on twitter and put the Buckeyes NIL number out in the public which had people screaming foul all,season. He was upset because Judkins left Ole Miss and went to Ohio State. These schools; Ole Miss, Oregon, Texas, and Georgia, all spent more than Ohio State last year in NIL, but all we ever hear about is the Buckeyes have the most expensive roster which is a flat out lie. There are several schools that spent slightly less than Ohio State (around $16 to $19) and they didn't even make the playoffs, and they never even get talked about either.
The deals are year to year, because what college is going to contractually bind a player to stay? And what players going to go to a college that doesn’t allow them to leave via a contract? The issue was giving high school Croods I haven’t even done anything out a bunch of money just because they’re highly ranked.
Everyone wines about NIL and The transfer portal. But nobody every mentions collective bargaining. This is a America. And America is about a free market. The market dictates worth. Y'all don't want ppl putting cap on your own earning potential but want it done in college football. What kind of bull crap is that.
Why are people complaining College Football is dead ? It’s not this has been one of the most entertaining seasons I’ve seen in a long time. You have two teams playing for national title that didn’t go out and retool their entire roster. And your Fifa comparison is a good one. The same organization that wouldn’t compensate leagues for winter World Cup break.
It is ruining college football and it’s not going away anytime soon. Everyone agreed players should gain money through things like social media, brand deals, commercials, autographs, etc. Nobody was saying the schools should be creating organizations able to throw multi million dollar deals around.
From day 1 of this I said all the money should be added up and divided amongst the whole team week to week like a pay check. The team should be allowed to get like 12 million max. Half of that is divided amongst all 52, that's over 100k each for a year. Take that other half, use it for a bonus system so the stars can get their extra, guys with good academics can get extra, give extra for winning the conference, bowls. Everyone will get something if they finish the season, the players doing the most will get rewarded. Give that to them when they finish school so that they have something to start their post school life off with. If you play 4 years, but are just a bench guy, you still will have a few hundred thousand in bonus money to buy you a home or invest, buy some coke or whatever. A star can come out a millionaire depending on how long they are in school.
Do you want the company you work for to have the right to control anything pay you make when you aren't working for them as long as you aren't helping their competition?
My assumption is that most of the players with NIL deals don't have full ride scholarships. So I am curious to hear sooner or later about players going in debt for miss handling their finances with their wealth
Transparency leads to price spirals….like pro sports an CEOs. This prices out regular fans from going to games at the colleges…higher ticket costs and seat licenses….
If you take money from NIL you can’t leave before your junior year. Can’t sit out of bowl games. If you jump to transfer portal you have to sit out a year. Can’t touch money till you graduate with a degree.
To me it’s an “easy solution “. Ya do a flat basic rate for the positions w performance bonuses. QB gets $50kfreshman year, if you start or play X amount of snaps ya get more. Then year 2 ya get $75k same deal. Just for instance can be higher or lower. Rb/WR gets 20 k w bonuses. The trick is signing bonus, you get 3-5 max guys you can offer a million dollars to, but they gotta stay all the years. Maybe then 3-5 you can offer $500 k, they can hit transfer portal junior or senior year. Something like that that ALL teams gotta follow. Not difficult to actually make a structure. Can always tweak it later.
With NIL I see "college " football as USFL pro football now. They are not student-athletes. They have to be ready for the criticism of professional athletes if they want to be paid as professional athletes.
The NCAA never wanted NIL it was forced on them by the courts. Pro sports have goverment approved exceptions because no association of organizations could institute sallary caps under the labor laws.
NIL is not the issue. NIL Collectives are the problem. True NIL would require you to play and produce…at minimum just be popular. The collectives throw money at kids and the ONLY reason a collective is legal is because they can’t stipulate you must play for a specific institution. These boosters don’t care because they have been burned by kids for years who took money and knew they weren’t going to the school the booster was affiliated with. Now they get a tax deduction so in their eyes this is much better
NIL is old news. Now with revenue payments, and the schools are directly paying the players. That’s why this portal period you’re seeing schools like Duke offer a QB 8 mill/2 year deal
NCAA should’ve payed the players and we wouldn’t be dealing with this shady shit it’s actually sad how easy this could’ve been done but when you kick the can down the road it falls in the gutter
Funny how the SEC is the only one complaining about it not being fair. Lol they have been doing it for years. So if anyone would kniw its cheating or the team that pays the most wins, it eould be an SEC team.
The NCAA does enough to screw up anything, but this problem sits on the shoulders of activist judges who ruled against the NCAA in the cases that forced NIL.
If the Lucas situation ends up in court, hopefully it creates structure moving forward. Wisco is in a lose-lose position with it for standing on business principle
@drunkviggo7263 why do people hate bama so bad? Not like their teams were disrespectful. So I really don't get it. OSU has consistently had a more talented team than alabama but couldn't pull off the big game often. Why yall don't hate ohio like this?
@@tr4pkeedyoungking677no offense but how exactly how did Ohio state consistently had a more talented team than Alabama? Alabama players had better pro career than Ohio State players did and won 6 championships since 2000 compared to Ohio states 2 since then.
@GreatestOneDestroyer bama players had better careers in the nfl because saban actually developed them but if you look at the recruiting classes by year you will see ohio st constantly got top tier 5 stars.
I believe the NIL system could be more equitable if it operated like a performance-based tipping model. Each football player could have an account where they earn compensation, such as $100 for each successful play-whether it’s scoring a touchdown, making a key block, or delivering another impactful contribution-during games. This structure would reward individual performance directly and fairly. Additionally, I don’t support the current model, where only a few players on a team receive thousands or even millions of dollars while the entire team plays a significant role in their success. A more balanced approach would ensure that every player who earns a spot on the team is eligible for compensation, recognizing that team success depends on collective effort. Furthermore, incentives should extend beyond game performance. Practice performance, punctuality for meetings, and academic achievements could all be part of a comprehensive, performance-driven system. This would create a more level playing field and reward players for their full commitment to excellence on and off the field.
I don't know how we fi this. Maybe each school only has a certain amount of money for NIL deals? Every school has the same amount to spend? The NIL deals go into a pot and EVERY player gets a bit of a cut of it? Like, the NIL money goes into a pot, not to individual players and then it gets divvied up to each player from there? I don't know, I just know that college football is my FAVORITE sport & I'm starting to get disillusioned with this stuff. I just love watching people who LOVE the game play the game. That's why I don't watch the NFL very much because the players might love the game, but they make too many "business" decisions vs playing because you love it.
The NIL is creating parity in college sports, only the big schools could afford to pay players, players that won't and don't make it to the pros can get money now while in college, adapt or die colleges make billions off those kids for a scholarship
It’s not cheating Mcafee isn’t saying anything we don’t already know or knew it was gonna happen. Coaches are just made their résumé’s aren’t enough for kids in need of money/ just want money

The comradery and passion that made college ball more fun to watch than the NFL and now it's just about how much money a player can squeeze out before leaving a team high and dry to chase another dollar. I like that it's more unpredictable and that you don't have the same teams winning every year but this isn't the way to make that happen.
Watch FCS football, myself I watch HBCUs mainly JSU-Jackson State. Real games, no mess.
If they cap it, it can work. Cap it around $250K. so they hunger for more in the NFL
Any college/university paying NIL should lose all Federal funding. If they can afford it, they don’t need it!
The Universites aren't paying the athletes . The alumni are who is paying.
@ Universities are still profiting from team’s success. Alumni aren’t paying the coaches million dollar salaries…
Athletic programs are benefitting. The university (as an academic institution) doesn't get any of that money.
@ Oh bless your heart.
@@SweatinSixty Don't worry about it. We can tell you don't understand. It's alright.
People call Day soft but holy hell Kiffin is embodying the "holding my beer" meme
This has nothing to do with the SEC, this is killing college football! If you want to pay players ok, but there needs to be a cap and not pay millions and millions for kids that are straight out of high school. The kids are not hungry for the game when they make 2 million a year freshman year of college! Big money is killing the game. Just start calling it NFL jr! Over paid players that don’t care about the game!
Football is very important. anyone who plays football is a major asset to society. We need to pay all players regardless of age. If you play football you should make at least 5million a year
@@greenwave819😂😂😂
Why didn't you have this energy when the SEC was paying kids whatever under the table?
They are 20 year old they are not kids. Don't be fing ridicolous now. They deserve to get paid like anyone else is paid for work.
So the schools should make all the money off the players Name, Image and Likeness huh?
They need to find out how to tax espn. They are the ones making all the money
Yeah for real "athletes are making the schools all the money"
No honey the schools are making ESPN all the money
@RubensBarrichello. they'll never tell on themselves
I think with the rev shareing is going to put a cap on it all. Schools aren't going to pay kids twice. I think nil is going to be what it was supposed to be some sandwich shop is going to pay a kid for a Comercial
NIL will cause the talent to spread out evenly across the nation. Why do some people hate that. Glenn
Yep
I think that this is going to bring more balance to college football and the sec will not be as much as a overly competitive then they use to be. Why you think Nick got out. He knew that there was not going to be a competitive edge anymore for alabama!!!
@mkingadiffernce you're absolutely right. That's why saban retired
Really it’s because there is no allegiance to the schools anymore. 1 bad year or a better NIL deal and they are happy to leave their team. I’m glad it’s distributing the talent but hate to see it turn more like the NFL
No, talent will congregate where the money is. Programs that can spend more can aquire more talent.
B1G now 5-1 against the best of the SEC this post season. Only a top 20 Mizzou clipped unranked Iowa by 3! Thanks NIL! 3 of the last 4 national title teams are current B1G members.
Math isn't mathing.
My guy what?
The golden goose has been strangled, but most wont realize it's dead for another 4 or 5 years.
They mad because they can't have the athletes back on the collegiate plantation.
Here we go again.. NONE OF THEM ARE CHAINED DOWN....
Opinons are like your ass.Everbody is entitled to one.
@ASuttleApproachglobal-o8f WHY are so many BLACKS trying to be on these plantations? The WELFARE their moms were on isn't enough
Spoken like a fool
bullcrap
When the students wasn’t getting paid, teams like Alabama was paying to get all the best players. They need to get it together
But Alabama Jones said it was BECAUSE they would play with the best, but NO money was involved. What a joke eh?
@ ok
Only people complaining are Alabama fans. We all know why.
@ericwren2507 bama wasn't paying kids. Yall reaching like a mf. Aj was riding around Tuscaloosa in Benz? Tj yeldon and Mark Ingram was riding lamborghini? Oh trent Richardson obviously was walking around with a $250,000 diamond chain and wasn't taking care of them 3 kids he had at home huh? Wait Justin Jefferson and j. Chase was riding around death valley in them new range rovers huh? Yall cap like a mf.
Rich people complaining about richer people. LOL
A monster has been created. Need a cap and the cap needs to be low so these kids still work for the next level. At this point I would bet NFL players wish they had college eligibility
"FIRE LANE KIFFEN"
priceless!
I agree that there should be some sort of NIL compensation program, BUT.......there needs to be some legal guidelines in place before it gets ridiculously out of hand.
College players have been pro athletes for a few decades now. Just because payments are officially allowed doesn’t mean it wasn’t happening before.
Eventually, the bottom is going to drop off of this thing! I was for the students athletes, making money to share in profits with the schools, but it is getting out of hand. It’s the wild,Wild West with no accountability from the student athletes. Some of these kids are transferring every year and some of them are doing it without even playing, but collecting money from the school. You used to go to school and play sports so that you can get an education. Now they are going to school to play for money without even any concern for getting an education, which is sad because most of them will never be a pro athlete.
You’re acting like a US college education for a regular degree is a big deal. It’s a scam you learn essentially nothing if you’re not going for a specialty degree. Let’s not start this “their students first non-sense” college football is essentially NFL with the amount of time these kids have to put into the game
Student athletes? 😂
You go to college to increase your earning potential.
Agents are like sleazy states attorneys
I'm hearing from a many of a college football fans that been supporting colleges all across the country that they are basically done with going to the games and supporting watching these players getting paid the amount there getting and then they turned around and have the transfer portal to add fuel to the fire , fans are done the stadiums will become half full in the short near future
Oh no, fans want to watch kids being exploited by their schools instead of earning money commensurate with their value. The envy is *palpable* lol
@@Xynth25let’s be honest bro these are most likely black kids. They hate it for this reason only
Can u do video on your opinion on Nebraska’s successful transfer portal so far? (#6 ranked nationally, #1 in Big 10 per 247). Starting keeping up w college football this year & u make it real easy & entertaining!
@@GotAnyNic sounds like a decent vid to me lemme see what I can do appreciate the comment 🫡
Nebraska has a great coach in Matt Rhule and he will have them being one of the best teams in the country within the next couple of years. I myself am a lifelong Tennessee Volunteer but I like what the Huskers have cooking and will be pulling for them.
Welcome to the new nfl!!! These universities and coaches and ncaa people have been making money for years I don’t want to hear it. I’m going to enjoy it!!!
02:08 love your channel man! Would you mind sharing what you’re using the aggregate information? Would like to use it in my niche.
Regardless, keep up the great work!
Sorry the big ten is taken over now
Michigan won it last year and ohio state is winning it this year.
Not so fast my friend ☘️
@A_A_fatdad well it's true, you're not the only conference now. That paid his players like you did in the past the stockpile your talent. No it's legal. Powerful Midwest teams like Michigan, Ohio state so on and so forth. Have the richest alumni in the world
THEE JSU ARE THEE STANDARD 💙 THEEILOVE
When OLE MISS nil tanks and the money dries up, THEN WHAT?
Then they do what Kentucky does and they fade into irrelevance in the sport.
My homie has twins, Mia and Mya Pauldo, they're Tennessee signees, they're the youngest to get a NIL with Puma and they got that in 8th grade
Sooooo, all of the under the table payments to family members of players, and the BILLIONS colleges were raking in wasn't CHEATING.... Most coaches, colleges are mad that they have to share the wealth. Sad
PREACH!!!!!!
Carson Beck doesn't take time to watch film..That's because he's been paid and doesn't need to try harder say for a championship... The "O" linemen should blackmail the QBs for protection money hahaha... THE "O"LINE MAFIA hahaha
He did not say he didn't like to watch film. He just doesn't like to watch football that he's not involved in, get your story straight
Tbh Kiffin is someone I dont take seriously since he is a hypocrite if he was still at USC or a school with big funds he would be loving it
Miss. paid a reserve Michigan DB to enter the portal in the 2022-2023 season, kiffin is without a doubt a hypocrite. The team in the SEC crying the most cause the B10 team by in large have the bigger bag now the SEC teams no longer have the advantage of paying under the table.
@@donniejuanexactly. These southern schools had it made when they were slipping players and their family tens of thousands of dollars under the table and could keep players that they want. Schools like Ole Miss, Arkansas and Tennessee had been thought to be big dogs in the south, but they are quickly learning that they won’t be able to maintain the pace of NIL money that groups connected to Ohio State, Michigan, Texas, Oklahoma, Texas A&M and Notre Dame can put up year after year. Even Georgia and Alabama are going to have some difficulties when they realize that their fanbase and donor base isn’t nearly what they think it is.
Kiffin always blames everything but himself
@@Godsbackhand7 all schools did it. the SEC aing start dominating til recently.. all teh blubloods from Michigan Nebraska Notre Dame Penn St OU Texas USC was doing it and it was all good. Mia was doing it in the Big East FL St in the ACC whyu no bitchin bout it til Bama and the Sec took over?
The fact that all these grown men think the SEC was the only conference paying players is alarming. We are doomed in this country man😂
Any player getting paid to play in college should absolutely have to pay tuition. Absolutely zero scholarships!
It used to be only the SEC got to pay all their players. But now NIL allows other schools to participate and the SEC is sad.
NIL & 12 team playoff has ruined college ball 👎🏻👎🏻
That's a lie! Every sport has a playoff. Man up!
Really ? Then why'd a 5th and 6th ranked team end up in the chip!?!? Lmao!
@@bradley36983 Why not?
Bullocks
The hunger for money is destroying society. We aren’t educating kids anymore. We are giving them money they can handle responsibly. This is so bad.
Colleges have been paying players since the 80s on all levels/boosters
Player transfers should come with return transfer fees. A qb leaves school A for $1M to school B. School B pays school A $2M transfer fee. There has to be a payback system.
NCAA didn't allow this. The NCAA tried to protect against this, but lost the capability to manage due to lawsuits. The schools didn't care to help...this is why we are where we are. The NCAA was not perfect and needed to change its way, but the schools and lawsuits to completely destroy the system and start over is why we are left with what we got. The schools and coaches dug their own grave and now are complaining about it.
Dabo Sweeney the GOAT by default
Whats crazy is Ole Miss spent more on NIL than Ohio State and their coach (Kiffin) is the one who went on twitter and put the Buckeyes NIL number out in the public which had people screaming foul all,season. He was upset because Judkins left Ole Miss and went to Ohio State. These schools; Ole Miss, Oregon, Texas, and Georgia, all spent more than Ohio State last year in NIL, but all we ever hear about is the Buckeyes have the most expensive roster which is a flat out lie. There are several schools that spent slightly less than Ohio State (around $16 to $19) and they didn't even make the playoffs, and they never even get talked about either.
Yet, not all football programs have the same money to pay players. NIL and annual free agency is killing college football.
If players can be kicked out of school or cut from the team, the players should be permitted to leave voluntarily. This is fairness from both sides.
College football has always been uneven,you're out of your mind if you think it's ever been an even playing field.
There will never be full transparency on college players money. They’ve hidden payments forever.
The deals are year to year, because what college is going to contractually bind a player to stay? And what players going to go to a college that doesn’t allow them to leave via a contract? The issue was giving high school Croods I haven’t even done anything out a bunch of money just because they’re highly ranked.
People always forget all those under the table dealings that went on beforehand.
Dude, I'm sure you answer this all the time but what is this program you're using?!?!
Kinda weird now that paying players is legal thr SEC isn’t on top any more coincidence? Don’t think so
You really think the Big10 never paid bro? You must be 12.
It’s been two year. The SEC didn’t win in 2013 or 2014 either. Yall got to let that hate go.
@@rangerdollins9518 so it’s just a weird coincidence The SEC and Big10 evened out after NIL became a thing? I don’t think so
Everyone wines about NIL and The transfer portal. But nobody every mentions collective bargaining. This is a America. And America is about a free market. The market dictates worth. Y'all don't want ppl putting cap on your own earning potential but want it done in college football. What kind of bull crap is that.
It’s racial.
And with that....Carson Beck transfers to Miami. This shit is crazy.
Why are people complaining College Football is dead ? It’s not this has been one of the most entertaining seasons I’ve seen in a long time. You have two teams playing for national title that didn’t go out and retool their entire roster. And your Fifa comparison is a good one. The same organization that wouldn’t compensate leagues for winter World Cup break.
It is ruining college football and it’s not going away anytime soon. Everyone agreed players should gain money through things like social media, brand deals, commercials, autographs, etc. Nobody was saying the schools should be creating organizations able to throw multi million dollar deals around.
From day 1 of this I said all the money should be added up and divided amongst the whole team week to week like a pay check. The team should be allowed to get like 12 million max. Half of that is divided amongst all 52, that's over 100k each for a year.
Take that other half, use it for a bonus system so the stars can get their extra, guys with good academics can get extra, give extra for winning the conference, bowls. Everyone will get something if they finish the season, the players doing the most will get rewarded.
Give that to them when they finish school so that they have something to start their post school life off with. If you play 4 years, but are just a bench guy, you still will have a few hundred thousand in bonus money to buy you a home or invest, buy some coke or whatever. A star can come out a millionaire depending on how long they are in school.
Do you want the company you work for to have the right to control anything pay you make when you aren't working for them as long as you aren't helping their competition?
You sound crazy…Are the coaches going to have a salary cap?
My assumption is that most of the players with NIL deals don't have full ride scholarships. So I am curious to hear sooner or later about players going in debt for miss handling their finances with their wealth
I love when the South cries on threads. Shower me in your tears
Comparing the NCAA to FIFA is wild 🤣 but not far off the marker for sure
I'll admit it , now the richer schools are getting all the best players now I don't like it. But rather than get rid of it , I'd rather it be capped.
Lane Kiffin is one of 3 or 4 coaches to take the most advantage of the lack of rules and structure in NIL.
They should give reparations to college teams that got penalized for giving loans to players for medical purposes.
As a life long Notre dame fan nothing makes me happier than seeing the SEC lose its crown. Yea now tell me to join a conference
Transparency leads to price spirals….like pro sports an CEOs. This prices out regular fans from going to games at the colleges…higher ticket costs and seat licenses….
If you take money from NIL you can’t leave before your junior year. Can’t sit out of bowl games. If you jump to transfer portal you have to sit out a year. Can’t touch money till you graduate with a degree.
To me it’s an “easy solution “. Ya do a flat basic rate for the positions w performance bonuses.
QB gets $50kfreshman year, if you start or play X amount of snaps ya get more. Then year 2 ya get $75k same deal. Just for instance can be higher or lower.
Rb/WR gets 20 k w bonuses.
The trick is signing bonus, you get 3-5 max guys you can offer a million dollars to, but they gotta stay all the years. Maybe then 3-5 you can offer $500 k, they can hit transfer portal junior or senior year. Something like that that ALL teams gotta follow. Not difficult to actually make a structure. Can always tweak it later.
With NIL I see "college " football as USFL pro football now. They are not student-athletes. They have to be ready for the criticism of professional athletes if they want to be paid as professional athletes.
So the agents want info to make their jobs easier to make more commission off NIL deals
If a player transfers, the receiving school should have to buy out the NIL contract of the player in the same way a coach has to ne bought out.
They been signing deals every year because scholarships are one year at a time
The NCAA never wanted NIL it was forced on them by the courts. Pro sports have goverment approved exceptions because no association of organizations could institute sallary caps under the labor laws.
NIL is not the issue. NIL Collectives are the problem. True NIL would require you to play and produce…at minimum just be popular. The collectives throw money at kids and the ONLY reason a collective is legal is because they can’t stipulate you must play for a specific institution. These boosters don’t care because they have been burned by kids for years who took money and knew they weren’t going to the school the booster was affiliated with. Now they get a tax deduction so in their eyes this is much better
NIL is old news. Now with revenue payments, and the schools are directly paying the players. That’s why this portal period you’re seeing schools like Duke offer a QB 8 mill/2 year deal
NCAA should’ve payed the players and we wouldn’t be dealing with this shady shit it’s actually sad how easy this could’ve been done but when you kick the can down the road it falls in the gutter
Funny how the SEC is the only one complaining about it not being fair. Lol they have been doing it for years. So if anyone would kniw its cheating or the team that pays the most wins, it eould be an SEC team.
The NCAA does enough to screw up anything, but this problem sits on the shoulders of activist judges who ruled against the NCAA in the cases that forced NIL.
If the Lucas situation ends up in court, hopefully it creates structure moving forward. Wisco is in a lose-lose position with it for standing on business principle
Ewers took a bag from OSU and then screwed them over and went to Texas. And then he found out. And I am here for it.
Teams up north (rather than SEC teams) are ruling the day now that all teams are buying players.
terrell pryor? Reggie bush?
Think about this in the last 2 years alabama has lost over 40 players. What point on this game have we ever seen this happening?
Good
@drunkviggo7263 why do people hate bama so bad? Not like their teams were disrespectful. So I really don't get it. OSU has consistently had a more talented team than alabama but couldn't pull off the big game often. Why yall don't hate ohio like this?
@@tr4pkeedyoungking677no offense but how exactly how did Ohio state consistently had a more talented team than Alabama? Alabama players had better pro career than Ohio State players did and won 6 championships since 2000 compared to Ohio states 2 since then.
@@tr4pkeedyoungking677people hate Alabama like they hate the chiefs it’s because they’re a dynasty and they hate seeing them keep winning.
@GreatestOneDestroyer bama players had better careers in the nfl because saban actually developed them but if you look at the recruiting classes by year you will see ohio st constantly got top tier 5 stars.
As a life long buckeye fan I say it's perfectly fine. Why fix something that isn't broken?
Nope. Let every school do their thing. Not the same as NFL because some schools are private and some are public
I believe the NIL system could be more equitable if it operated like a performance-based tipping model. Each football player could have an account where they earn compensation, such as $100 for each successful play-whether it’s scoring a touchdown, making a key block, or delivering another impactful contribution-during games. This structure would reward individual performance directly and fairly.
Additionally, I don’t support the current model, where only a few players on a team receive thousands or even millions of dollars while the entire team plays a significant role in their success. A more balanced approach would ensure that every player who earns a spot on the team is eligible for compensation, recognizing that team success depends on collective effort.
Furthermore, incentives should extend beyond game performance. Practice performance, punctuality for meetings, and academic achievements could all be part of a comprehensive, performance-driven system. This would create a more level playing field and reward players for their full commitment to excellence on and off the field.
What? Get real. This was, is, and always will be a business. Grow up.
I don't know how we fi this. Maybe each school only has a certain amount of money for NIL deals? Every school has the same amount to spend? The NIL deals go into a pot and EVERY player gets a bit of a cut of it? Like, the NIL money goes into a pot, not to individual players and then it gets divvied up to each player from there? I don't know, I just know that college football is my FAVORITE sport & I'm starting to get disillusioned with this stuff. I just love watching people who LOVE the game play the game. That's why I don't watch the NFL very much because the players might love the game, but they make too many "business" decisions vs playing because you love it.
They wanted to be big boys and then they get upset when they're treated like big boys
SEC big mad everybody doing it now. This is sad on their part😂😂
reggie bush?
The NIL is creating parity in college sports, only the big schools could afford to pay players, players that won't and don't make it to the pros can get money now while in college, adapt or die colleges make billions off those kids for a scholarship
It’s not cheating Mcafee isn’t saying anything we don’t already know or knew it was gonna happen. Coaches are just made their résumé’s aren’t enough for kids in need of money/ just want money
Of course the agent wants transparency. If he can say two guys are getting $xxx, and it's provable, then he can demand $xxx for his client.
Most kids from their same neighborhoods can't afford to go to college. Isn't a scholarship worth 150-500k enough??
Equal opportunity is a hell of a thing, ain’t it Lane!
