re: NIL revenue share just got way more complicated

good point. It’ll be male athletes suing to block the DoE. Not the females to get their money.

I've become an accelerationist when it comes to stuff like this. Let it get as crazy and out of control as possible, and I'll be sitting on the sidelines laughing at all the morons trying to sort it all out.

I like that, like a Trump presidency.

This will last 3 days until that buffon Baccera is gone.

For everyone bitching that any limits are "unamerican", simply have the NFL make and fund its own minor league. Why should universities be doing it for them while putting on the guise of "Student Athletes".

If being a pro athlete is all they care about, then go get paid in the minors like they do in baseball and end college sports. Return them back to club athletics and stop wasting university resources on it.

Hell, colleges and universities could still lease their stadiums and arenas to the leagues for their minor league games to bring in revenue and have a built in fanbase.

With this, you no longer are the LSU Tigers. Just make it the Baton Rouge Tigers Semi-Pro team and be done with it. Have roster limits, salary caps, etc, but no branding from the university.

That is what most people don't realize. People follow these sports because of loyalty to their universities, not because of the player. Let's see how much money they get when they don't have that built in fanbase.

You need to put a warning header above your post or somethong if you're gonna hit us with pictures like that.

I was eating.

Universities with large athletic programs are making millions upon millions on dollars from those athletes. It’s not debatable, it’s on their fricking balance sheets.

Theres a reason you won’t address things like the Diego pavia or auburn swimmer situations. Why is that?

quote:

I think all of you idiots that say shite like this should be capped at $30k a year in your job. That’s enough for a basic apartment and rice and beans. It’s about what you “deserve” based on your level of intellect

---

So athletes were only getting $30k/ year, living in basic apartment, and eating rice and beans before all this? While it is an improvement on you saying they were getting nothing previously, it still shows you have no idea what the frick your are talking about.

Every SEC football player has value.

1. In what world is this a response of any kind to the diego pavia or auburn swimmer situations?

2. No, they absolutely do not. What is Landon Wells’ value to Vanderbilt? What is grey reebals’ value to auburn?

quote:

No that’s what retards like you should get, that’s all your worth, if that.

The guy that believes athletes were getting nothing before nil and “every sec football player has value” calling anyone else a retard

Say the person in America wanting to cap other Americans ability to earn over

Show me where I said anything close to that.

And very ironic coming from the guy fully in support of the government telling a business how to run itself.

Let’s try putting this in terms you might be capable of understanding:

H&R Block hires you on a 3 month contract during peak tax season. You make more money than you did at your previous job on this contract. The contract ends and your employment is discontinued. You are free to get employment anywhere else you want, or start your own firm. But you know there is a 0% chance you will earn that money anywhere else next tax season without the structure H&R Block has in place because you aren’t talented enough. You cry to the government, and the government tells H&R Block they have to hire you back.

That’s what you’re supporting.

You can’t play the games without players. How much are they worth? We can certainly have a conversation about that. Most of them, probably not that much.

I never said that. You’re putting words in other peoples mouths to validate your own feelings

I don’t think the government should be involved, and they wouldn’t be this heavily if the NCAA and all its cronies weren’t operating in bad faith for decades

TRULY idiotic analogy in this context. I mean so, so stupid

Again, I never said that

The XFL and USFL had the same players. Was the interest in those leagues anywhere close to the interest in college football?

No, which is why they aren’t around. Thanks for making my point
