I prefer Div. 2 football now where a free education and playing a sport you love mean something , that name on the front the jersey means something .
I'm guessing you've watched less than a total of 1 hour of division 2 football all year. But if you really are such a big div 2 fan, then what the hell are you doing here?

Anyone know where we actually are in the conference on NIL?
From stuff I’ve read it seems UGA, Texas, A&M and OU have the richest
That's not public information, so any answers you get will just be a guess.

bullshite. How about maintain strong off and def lines and recruit LA skill positions. That’s all you need.

You just keep proving my point for me. I asked you for solutions, and you have none. You have no response to anything I say other than to sling untrue insults.
Try to be better. Read up on NIL so maybe you can understand it better (assuming you can read past a 6th grade level).

I have a 3 year old. Sometimes he gets into a pissy mood where he just wines for unknown reasons. You try to ask questions to figure out why, but there isn't much you can do to logically explain and reason with them in that moment.
That's the kind of situation you are dealing with here. Main difference is, my 3 year old typically comes around to understanding. The OP never will.

Just once, I would like one of you to explain exactly how a cap on NIL would work that wouldn't result in a law suit that the athlete wins with 100% certainty.
The P2, 3 or 4 leave the NCAA and also formally separate from the universities. The schools are repaid by leasing rights for the names, logos, colors, etc. and rental on the facilities and stadiums.
This eliminates Title IX from the picture. Then you have a players union and this new college football entity hammer out a CBA. Then you have contracts with minimum years attached before players can move and some form of a salary cap. This ends all collectives, the same way that pro teams and their fans are not able to give players money or goods outside of a contract as an inducement to choose to play for them.
The original intent of NIL just becomes sponsorship deals with what are now professional athletes. I’m sure boosters will still use this to give money to players, but the whole point of moving to this system would be to eliminate the free movement of the portal and prevent teams from using sponsorships to tip the balance.
There are enough teams in the P2 who need balance restored to be consistently competitive to make sure the rules are enforced. This won’t be the NCAA trying to govern hundreds of member institutions across multiple sports. This will be the conferences and a new “college football” league with a commissioner enforcing the rules on 30-50 teams in one sport. That’s a lot easier to keep an eye on.
Because of how broad the Supreme Court’s ruling was, this is the only way to prevent a lawsuit from overturning a cap on money to players. You still can’t cap NIL/sponsorships, but you can change the primary stream of money and limit that.

That ship has sailed, there was a time before the SCOTUS ruling that the NCAA could have accepted something like this but the stupid stubborn retards had this 'we're the adults, we're in charge, our way or the highway' mentality and ended up getting run over by the Courts

It's unlikely we ever see an NIL cap... what's more likely to happen is it runs its course and the ultra-wealthy get tired of paying players who refuse to stay.
The fix to NIL is a fix to the transfer portal. It needs to be more difficult for guys to transfer.
Take for example TJ Finley: Looking for his 5th team... How he has eligibility is mindblowing... The whole Covid year was honestly stupid.
Even Walker Howard is a good example... Looking for his 3rd year and will still have 2 years to be able to play.

Conferences can create their own bylaws, break from the NCAA, form an entirely new league, there still isn't a world where putting a cap on NIL will be able to exist.
It doesn't exist in any other sport, where they do have salary caps. What makes you think it could exist here? Conferences can make whatever rule they want putting a NIL cap in place. It would be immediately be ruled unconstitutional by the courts.

Instead of paying players, should be like baseball , go straight to Pro's from high school .

That's all great. And college football will most certainly land on some of the areas you touched on. My reply was specifically talking about NIL though. Even in your scenario there will be no cap on it, like the OP suggested.
I agree, the collectives aren't what NIL was supposed to be. But the collectives formed businesses, with their sole purpose being to fund NIL. It's a loophole, and it's one that there is likely no work around for.

Nope. LSU had the roster this year that is more than capable of a 10-2 result with the schedule we had this year.
Coaching matters. Ours is below average in performance but top tier in pay. We aren't getting the results we are paying for. Period.

You are just nailing all the idiot talking points in one thread. There is nothing stopping the NFL from taking players out of high school if that's what they wanted to do. The NFL has that rule in place, it has nothing to do with the NCAA.
