What is the intent of NIL?
Posted on 12/17/21 at 8:13 pm
Posted on 12/17/21 at 8:13 pm
Is it not to pay for misc. expenses during college years many players do NOT have access to from their parents?
Example: Travel expenses, gas money, date money, parking ticket money, eat out nice one a week money?
How did we go from that conversation to helping student athletes to Bryce Young signing a 7 figure deal before he started a game?
The intent, - correct me if I am wrong is to address the issue of money needed to attend college that scholarship money doesn't cover and monies that were deemed "illegal" to "give" to student athletes by the NCAA
so if the intent is [b]extra spending money
then the conversation about compensation should be on that figure of cash needed and it should be for all student athletes...in the spirit of fairness keeping with amateur athletics
If you want to turn pro, then turn pro on your own terms! Want to play college ball then boot up...
A scholarship is worth 135K
Players get professional coaching, training, tutoring etc...they get a lot more value than is being talked about...
perspective has been lost
Again, what is the intent of NIL?
Are we hitting the intent?

The intent is NIL is to give the kids that are making billions for corporations, ncaa and their institutions a chance to share in those profits because they wouldn’t exist without them

I have never once heard that as the intent?

okay, then explain why a local BR restaurant is out raising money for NIL...
so LSU players will stay or commit...
that's NOT Billionaires ESPN sharing profits with players, that would make players employees of Espn.
The fans, students and Alumni are what make College College, and College football special
sure the players play...
but without the University, there is no team
the point of a University is higher learning, not signing some deal for "team"

Do you even know what NIL stands for?

The conversation of paying, helping or hiring players to have monies to get by has been around since Dale Brown years
He had player who needed to attend a funeral Dale wanted to use his own money to send the player home and all hell broke loose
the conversation has always been about spending money for college athletes so they don't have to get these fake jobs to earn money...
So if that's not the intent, then you tell us the mission statement of NIL?
I'd like to read it

Yeah, you definitely don't know what NIL means.

There is no intent for NIL. The NCAA used to prohibit players from profiting from their own name , image and likeness. It always seemed pretty obvious that this would never really hold up in court and it didn't.
So no intent. Simply allowing free world capitalism to exist for the individual. There are still prohibitions about NIL being used in connection with pay for play, though I assume there will be the wink wink nudge nudge stuff going on.
Expect some tweaking.

It's about the players being able to use their name, image & likeness to earn money as advertising for a business or sponsor. It has nothing to do with the university itself.

It was intended for people like Leonard Fournette or Joe Burrow to make money off their jersey sales when people were buying nameless jersey that represented those players.
Or for that punter that couldn’t make money on twitch because of a stupid rule.
It was not intended to be blatant buying of recruits.

instead of being a prick, explain the roots of NIL
I just read an article on ESPN about it...
you tell us how we got here...
we're bitching about it because we know this is a train wreck and most of us won't watch this any longer
we already can't fill Tiger Stadium most weeks...
half leave at half time...
Coaches are overpaid, but that's a separate issue

The NCAA and school presidents should have been out in front of this decades ago. Instead, they didn’t do shite and the Supreme Court decided for them.
Players should have been paid for NIL when the very first NCAA football game came out. Instead, they back themselves into a corner and I have a really hard time envisioning how they reign this in because the court already made their decision.
The NCAA, school presidents, ADs, and tv networks are to blame here. Period.

And these local businesses have no connection or interest in the universities ?
Just a random 'Oh look, a 5 star DL from Texas, let me see if we can sign him to some ads to help us sell more BBQ in Baton Rouge"
Zero connection eh? Likeness fits here does it?
give me a freaking break

Remember when college players couldn't be in or make money off commercials or any other such advertising related to local or national businesses? Well now they have the freedom to do so & earn money doing so hence name, image & likeness.
