This free agency NIL whatever you wanna call it, has to have some boundaries. Freshmen expect to play early and transfer if not. Portal guys expect to start. No continuity, no roster management, just a bunch of kids looking for a check. Gone are the days of waiting your turn and developing your skills.
Why do you hate capitalism? Are you a communist?
It’s not up to any school or you to decide for someone else how or where they “develop their skills”. You telling me you wouldn’t take a far better paying job just because your current job of “training you”? If you say you wouldn’t think about taking the better paying job you are a damn liar.

Guy, your routine is getting old and it has holes like Swiss cheese. First, there is NO SUCH THING as unbridled capitalism. If you are claiming that you are a fricking LIAR! In our economy, there are laws preventing monopolies, underhanded business practices, etc. And even in the pro sports, there are limits...salary caps in football, luxury taxes in baseball, etc. Oh, and BTW, you only state the extremes...capitalism or communism...nothing in between. Why aren't you posting your political dogma on the politics board?
If you think this is above board, altruistic capitalism, you are flat out dumber than a fence post. Oh, and BTW, I assume you believe prostitution should be legal, every drug in the world should be legal, etc right? After all, free enterprise and capitalism right? You took a concept and carried it to the extreme with no regard for rules that govern and limit every business industry in the US.

I think contracts for NIL need to be instituted. If you take the money, you agree to a term. If you bail before your term is ended, you forfeit that money with a penalty.
It's what coaches do, it's what the pros do. If NIL and the transfer portal is to continue, then contracts are the only way to keep the game somewhat respectable.

Capitalism? LOL. Can an authentic economy be founded on a fake currency?

Then just call this NIL/Transfer Portal/Shitshow what it is; NFL Development League and not College Football anymore.
