Former Florida and Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer supports college players earning deals from endorsement deals but he thinks the rest of NIL is "cheating."...

quote:
“I think NIL, and I sat in those committees for many, many years, I think it’s great. I think if it’s capitalism, for example, if a great player like Marvin Harrison Jr. And some car dealership in town wants to hire him, they want to put his name on a billboard and pay him money, sign autographs. He wants to put something on an Instagram or they sell that. But that’s not what’s happened, Coach (Lou Holtz). What’s happened is it’s cheating," Meyer said, via The Comeback.

If Urban calls it cheating, it must be really bad. Because that dude loves him some blurred lines.

One of the biggest cheaters ever in college football should not be throwing stones at anyone in regards to NIL!

Ok…how?

Pay to Play. Period. Some of these players are getting hundreds of thousands and have no name, like and image to the public. Never heard of 95% of these players especially the incoming freshmen.

If you have to ask, any explanation won’t help.
