NIL’s

The answer is and always has been simple. Colleges should divorce themselves from the NCAA entirely. They have never and will never bring anything to the table. Unfortunately, we will lose the use of the term "March Madness" but I'm sure some marketing genius can come up with something equally as catchy.
 
If this Dartmouth situation becomes a precedent, then the players will just become paid employees of the school. Yes, that would be a more transparent and efficient system than NIL, which is just a mess. But it turns college sports into pro sports, period, full stop. Why bother? I'll just watch the Knicks.
 


He is on the totally other side of politics/ideology than I am on (I am not trying to talk about his politics, previous comments about things, or his dig at unions at the last minute).

But, I do agree with 99% of what he says in the video and it's interesting the idea he has about what the football programs should do. I thought it would be worth sharing.

and once the $ is coming from the school, who will pay for it? Ticket prices will go up and casual fans and many alums will do exactly as you suggest.

Getting $ or not, if underperforming or not aligned to coach,, they would be foolish to think they can just cross arms and pout and not have it affect their potential pro plans.

Not sure that's true. Thinking of Cam Whitmore who basically quit playing for Nova last year so as not to risk injury and now is absolutely thriving in the NBA.
 
The successful recruitment of elite players out of high school in NIL era also obviously impacts what you can pay incumbents. Sometimes the latter obviously look to transfer if elite new players reduce the NIL pot of $ & their share. It is so tricky to manage NIL and it is bonded to transfer implications.
