It boggles my mind the amount of people that still don't understand NIL after a few years. You can't "restrict" NIL. It's literally illegal to even try it. But if you don't like CFB right now, you won't like where it is going, and very fast, so maybe just stop watching?

I love college football, you don't want to push people like me out,

I simply do not understand how we went from sanctioning schools for illegally paying players to now paying 2 million for a HS QB

help me understand what the in the hell happened in a court case?

the NCAA typically can do what it wants...

we are paying players to sign with schools calling it NIL

that is happening, the coaches are telling us "it is what it is"...thus the NCAA can and should step in and say "not so fast, that's not the intent of NIL"

we're putting in rules to ensure the intent is met but abuse will have stiff consequences!!!!

Because that restriction by the NCAA was illegal. Very illegal. So illegal you had the polar opposite ideologies on the Supreme Court agree it was illegal, because it was so blatant.

They can't. They lost this case. Bigly.

There is probably a limited framework where the NCAA could operate that would be legal, but they are scared of finding out what that limit is, because it would be very expensive. The NCAA should have listened to me 20 years ago on this issue and started to create the regulatory framework for NIL and I imagine it could have survived.
