The states of Tennessee and Virginia are suing NCAA over the restriction on NIL being used to induce players. Expect more states to join.
I hate where we are at but it is what it is. Now that we are here it needs to just be a free market at all times out in the open. It’s silly to pretend it isn’t happening anyways.
These lawsuits and public discourse to me are a huge positive. It will hasten along the split that needs to happen.
Yes - the current system favors a handful of schools (20 or 30 maybe). I don’t argue against the NCAA on this. So what? It’s a free market. Nothing ever works when you try to tell companies they are too big or their CEO makes too much. Don’t like it don’t give patronage to that company. Don’t like this level of ball then stop bankrupting yourself to compete in it and work with others to form a different version with different rules and caps.
The more of this stuff the faster it happens and that is good for all. Especially those not in the top group who can truly afford to participate in pay for play (hint - there isn’t anyone in the BIG XII who really can save maybe OSU and it’s a big maybe)
