The way it probably gets curtailed to some extent is when the boosters get to a point where they are tired of being perpetually fleeced for more and more money by college "free agents" and decide their ROI isn't worth the ever increasing payments.



Eh. At most you may start seeing actually obligations of years of service in these contracts. It still won’t change anything. The same thing was said about the outrageous amounts of money coaches get. They said eventually the collectives will be unwilling to continue to pay coaches this amount and not getting results. Just ask Jimbo Fisher if that was true or not. The salaries for coaches keep going up and up and the results stay the same for almost every team involved. All contracts for NIL will do is cause other colleges NIL collectives to “buy out” the contracts for players they want like they currently do coaches.

Maybe, but there are only 65 power 5 head coaches compared to nearly 6000 power 5 scholarship football players. When including the other major sports, one would think it will become unsustainable.

Surely the market will adjust.
