re: Cap NIL and bring back the 1 year sit rule for transfers…

Nothing to do with that. I think we did phenomenal for a transition year. The league as a whole , has absolutely zero loyalty left in the game and it’s a shame.

Ok, at least bring back the 1 year sit rule for transfers.

None of this intraconference transferring shite

You can't do this. The Supreme Court decision that opened the doors for NIL in the first place doesn't allow a restriction like this.

The Supreme Court decision did not actually address NIL. Kavanaugh fired a shot across the bow in his concurring opinion but the ruling itself was very limited in scope.

The real issue is that state NIL laws went into effect, which put the NCAA in a tough spot. Without any federal legislation, the NCAA cannot enforce any rules that force universities to choose between compliance with state laws or compliance with NCAA rules.

So it’s the individual state NIL laws that really tied the NCAA’s hands.

The only way that the NCAA can cap earnings is if they agree to treat players as employees. And that's not gonna happen any time soon.

This I agree with 100%. The only way the NCAA or even the P5 conferences regain full control is by entering collective bargaining. Honestly I don’t think it would be that bad - certainly better from a competition standpoint than a free for all. If the “market” truly doesn’t support millions of dollars for college athletes, then any collective bargaining agreement should ultimately reflect that.

This is all you need to know why this hasn’t happened yet

Problem I see with the idea that a cap would fix this is that the NIL rules or lack thereof give a smokescreen to the bagmen. Just look at A&M. What they are allegedly doing has nothing to do with NIL but it provides an excellent smokescreen to fill the pockets of recruits and their families. They and the big schools were likely already doing this but it required much more tact since a college kid with a sudden influx of money was highly conspicuous and suspicious. Even with a cap the bagmen will get money to these guys and with the smokescreen of NIL you will never know where the money came from or how much of it was given without violating the privacy of individuals.

Then make coaches have to sit a year before taking another job. As long as coaches can take the bigger better deals for themselves, players should be allowed to as well.

I’m just not a fan of NIL period. I’m probably in the minority. I like the one year sit rule. I think currently it’s just too easy for these kids to just move on if they don’t like the way things are going.

Give one logical reason why these kids should not be able to make money off their likeness and abilities and one logical reason why they should have to sit a year without your argument boiling down to “because it hurts my favorite team”. You can’t. We don’t set these standards for any other scholarships so why should athletes be treated any differently. Any kid on an academic scholarship is free to make as much money as they want off their talents and skills as well as transfer to another school at any moment.

You have no argument in your favor to put limitations on these students.

No need to cap nil, if the teams spending money and still not winning they gonna stop dishing out the funds
