The NIL mess will end with an NFL type solution

Salary caps will exist for every team, and rosters will be determined by decisions involving the value of each player.
This will happen sooner rather than later for the good of the sport.
The current NIL system is not sustainable.

How is that going to be implemented?

College football will have a Commissioner just like the NFL.
Nick Saban’s name has been mentioned for that role.
The chaos has to end.

It won’t tho. These players aren’t getting paid by the school like you say. An nfl players Nike contract doesn’t count against the nfl salary cap. Nike can pay Alvin Kamara 100 mill if they want and that doesnt count at all towards the saints cap number. NIL is like that. No way to cap what they make outside.

Ok. Do you think the Commissioner is just going to unilaterally implement a "salary cap"? Particularly when the players aren't actually employees nor are they being paid a salary?

Only on paper. Then it will go back to under the table/ off the books payments!!

How do people still not understand this?
NIL was a Supreme Court decision, not a rule change. The only way any restriction can be put on what they receive is if they form a union and collectively bargain. As it sits, they seem to have no motivation to do that.

Could a commissioner or anyone else prevent a private entity from hiring an athlete to advertise their business or product?
No

That would likely be deemed collusion by the colleges and a violation of antitrust laws. The NFL gets around that because players are employees of the teams and unionized, which allows for collective bargaining between the teams and the players over things like salary caps. Barring unionizing college athletes, the colleges would not have the same exemption from the antitrust laws.

The college game is going to move quickly toward the NFL model. Divisions and conferences will compete along the same system you see every Sunday.
Instead of a CFP committee determining the playoff teams you will earn a place through competition.
Much better system.

I mean I think it’s pretty obvious that collective bargaining would have to come into play.

That's fine. But that has nothing to do with the implementation of salary caps as you proposed

I believe the players will be organized and collectively bargain for their interests just like the NFL players union.
Posted on 12/6/24 at 11:15 am to TheDrunkenTigah
or the NFL could start their own minor leagues and do away with college football as some schools may say this is not our mission anymore and get out of the athletic business altogether

It wasn’t a Supreme Court decision either, contrary to popular belief. The Supreme Court never ruled on NIL.
What really led to all of this was California state law, followed by the rest of the states jumping on the bandwagon due to FOMO.

Explain to me in simple terms what motivation the players, who currently hold all of the leverage, have to unionize and collectively bargain?

Serious question, do NFL free agents ever get steered to a particular team by an endorsement deal?

Except that NIL isn’t actually being used for NIL. They’re being paid for play.

[quote]The Supreme Court of the United States unanimously affirmed a ruling Monday that provides for an incremental increase in how college athletes can be compensated and also opens the door for future legal challenges that could deal a much more significant blow to the NCAA's current business model.
