They will still be hard to enforce but at least some basic rules or variation thereof:

A player cannot be offered an NIL deal to go to another school unless they are in the transfer portal. If they are offered, the company/entity/person offering will be banned from offering NIL deals to any athletes for ___ period of time. If a school has knowledge of it, or should have knowledge of it, they could lose scholarships or some other penalty. If there are multiple violations by entities on behalf of a school, penalties to the school.

Something to that affect.

In addition, a player should not be allowed to enter the transfer portal for 2 years, and if they have received NIL, 3 years, without consent from the school.

No…the rule needs to be a player cannot be offered an NIL deal or communicate with any other school’s boosters until he is signed to that school.

Isn’t that kind of redundant since NIL can’t be based on signing with certain schools, remaining in school, etc? NIL is just about these poor kids being able capitalize on the value of their name like other college students, remember?

I feel like this is something that shouldn't need to be a rule. It will correct itself after enough boosters get burned. I'd imagine any NIL deal will be 1 year, or multiple years so long as the players don't change schools... I'd imagine they will start back-loading some of these deals.

Price controls, wage ceilings, etc. These are all marxist concepts that you are pushing.

Never realized how many closet marxists there were on TD.

It's already forbidden. Schools just don't care because the NCAA has no teeth.

quote:

11. What is prohibited under the new policy?
Subject to state law, the following is prohibited under the new interim policy:
• NIL agreement without quid pro quo (e.g., compensation for work not performed). Student-athlete NIL
agreements should include the expected NIL deliverables by a student-athlete in exchange for the agreed
upon compensation and student-athletes must be compensated only for work actually performed.
NIL compensation contingent upon enrollment at a particular school. For example, institutions should not
use NIL arrangements to improperly induce matriculation (e.g., guaranteeing a particular NIL opportunity
upon enrollment);
• Compensation for athletic participation or achievement. Athletic performance may enhance a student-athlete’s NIL value, but athletic performance may not be the “consideration” for NIL compensation.
• Institutions providing compensation in exchange for the use of a student-athlete’s name, image or likeness


eta: Also, they can get away with all of this because as of now, NIL rules/laws are self regulated.

You see that’s the ‘bad’ kind of marxism. It’s only good marxism when we can tell players how much money they’re allowed to make and where they’re allowed to do it.

That was yesterday...

"In Florida, Chip LaMarca one of the leaders for the original NIL legislation announced yesterday he is introducing a change to the FL law. The new bill strikes language in the original bill that prohibited schools from “causing compensation to be directed” to athletes.

This will put Florida on an even playing field with schools from other states with less restrictive NIL rules - We're looking at you A&M and Texas."

95% of high school kids don't have the kind of value that's being thrown around right now. This is no different than when you had QBs getting drafted first overall and signing massive deals, and then not being worth a shite. Prove yourself first, then you can make money, not the other way around.

Bidding on Boutte, while it sets a really terrible precedent, is at least earned by on the field play. Handing out $150k to every high school kid that walks through the door just seems ridiculous, and not what the intent of NIL was supposed to be.

there are so many on here like you that have no idea what they are talking about. The issue at point is not marxist it is making a fair marketplace smh. THE NFL has rules in place much in the same manner otherwise small market teams would be a considerable disadvantages to large market teams. There are waiver wire rules, free agency rules, Salary caps, compensatory draft pics, tampering rules, etc etc etc. There is nothing marxist about that its allow level playing field for all participants.

NIL is offered through agents. NIL is not the problem.

Transfer portal is broken. There has to be a "contract" for a player to stay for at least two years. If they leave after one year they should sit. Scholarships should become contracts, just like professional sports. You sign a scholarship, you agree to non-compete for two years. After two years, you can re-up each year or move on.
