Wilson Alexander reporting that a bill will be introduced not taking state income taxes from NIL payments.

Not a fan considering I pay damn near 40% in taxes. Wonder if my company can work a NIL deal with me instead.

F that. No special circumstances or privileges. I work, and pay more than my fair share of taxes so others do not have to (because of the flawed system already). We don't need to introduce even more flaws into the system just because we are trying to stay competitive in a college sports landscape.

I’m not sure how I feel about this. I’m not for it but I know why it’s happening.

Thats a big fat NO!!!!!!!

You cant single out people and decide not to tax them.....treat them like a non-profit???? Horse shite!

Common sense needs to be injected here!

Absolutely not a fan. Where's my tax break?

These athletes need to pay their taxes, the EBR Public Library system needs its money.

ETA: this needs to go to the OT. They'll have that bill killed by tomorrow.

Someone is going to do this. Likely Gordon.

This is asinine, and I hope a class action lawsuit ensues.

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse they prove us wrong! They're cool with taking the hard workers money but don’t take from the athletes playing a fricking game. This is bullshite !

100% Agree… “abolish state income taxes for everyone”

Maybe that’s easier to accomplish if NIL accomplishes it first. New precedent would be set and easier to change for all.



My point being… I want income tax gone!!!! No new taxes. I don’t want to start taxing new shite that makes it tougher in theory.

Louisiana is following Georgia and Alabama. Mississippi will be next.

Common sense went out the window when the government got involved in this in 2019.

The only way to do this is for no one in the state to pay state income tax. Then the athletes NIL can be tax free.
