This has been the crux of the matter for me. People keep saying "Parity is dead! Amateurism is gone! College sports are ruined!" Yes, because that wasn't already the case.
Pretty negative for me to say this
But South Carolina wasn’t going to win a title in my time
The odds have gone down now with this, but I’ve already been there

Think of all the officially licensed gear they'd sell after that.

Oregon currently doesn’t even have the largest Nike deal among college sports programs

No one wants to talk about the elephant in the room, but over half of all CFB teams have a nigh 0% realistic chance of winning a natty in the current state of affairs. Players making money off likeness will not change that, or will change it so little that virtually nothing changes anyway.

Miami is a small school.

In just cash Oregon makes 2-2.5m a year
Nike pays Texas 7.5m a year
Not even the largest (that’s 3rd)
UA pays UCLA 9m
Adidas pays Louisville 7.9
This all as of Sept 2018 that i could find
Oregon just renewed their deal in 2018

Miami was big college football name with national titles
They also currently now because of that history have one of the larger apparel deals in the country
Miami is not Rutgers or Northwestern

Where are your numbers from? I ask as this is UW's.

The University of Wisconsin agreed to a 10-year deal with Under Armour on Friday worth a total of $96 million in cash and the retail value of products received. The deal will begin on July 1, 2016, after Wisconsin's 15-year relationship with Adidas comes to an end.

Nike already spends a ton on college athletics. They're not going to start spending MORE because of this, they'll just take money from other buckets. If player income goes up from boosters, program income is going to go down.
I genuinely believe this is a wash. Phil Knight isn't going to start spending more money than he already does at Oregon
I don't think Nike will be that big a deal in this space. They still need to sell Bama LSU Clemson etc gear. Phil Knight....absolutely. Michael Dell...yeah. What's 2 million more if it means getting the players...now billionaires egos come into play. Itll be like corporate softball games where somehow alex rodriguez works for one company...except it'll ringers stocked to the alma materb to beat so and so's alma mater

How does that negate the argument though? Is it a better outcome that Nike/Adidas/whoever puts all/most of their eggs in the most lucrative basket to make sure their sweetheart gets the biggest and best recruits?
ETA: also, I'm not saying that apparel sponsors are the most important piece here. They're just one piece of the puzzle in all this. Boosters, "official injury attorneys," etc. are all in this.

I’m talking JUST cash
Wisconsin is on it too
In JUST CASH Wisconsin makes 4 mil a year
If we add in apparel the numbers i said go up as well
Even with apparel Oregon doesn’t crack the top 20 and they just renewed theirs

Yes
And if this is the case Oregon is not the Nike “sweetheart”
Sure Knight went to Oregon
But they’d be much better off investing more in Texas

All I’m trying to say is this doesn’t make schools in “big markets” all the sudden national powers like people seem to say.
Teams like Alabama, Texas, Ohio State etc will just get richer

I just think it's absolutely insane to think 7 figure totals will be thrown around left and right. These people don't care as much as us.
