Hoping this is being placed on the correct forum, just continuing a conversation re:NIL...

Envy is a powerful negative motivator. It's going to be up to coaches to manage it. It will be a big challenge.

With the way coaches are getting paid these days, I dont think there are many, if any at all that will make more than their position coach.

Was just talking about this last night. There will be jealousy, resentment, payback, etc. There’s no way in hell you can create a sense of team spirit and camaraderie when you will have such disparity among the haves and have-nots. I don’t see this ending well under the current “guidelines”. There has to be a better way of handling this. I agree that players should be able to profit from their NIL being used. But maybe after they’ve actually earned it on the field for the university. Looking great in high school does not always guarantee it will continue at the collegiate level for a variety of reasons. Are there performance clauses included in these contracts? I’m assuming there must be. But what does that even look like? How does an injury factor in? Is the player given a period of time to get back to the level they were when offered this money? So many questions…
