These kids are sacrificing their bodies. They honestly deserve to be paid
They get free schooling, free training, free use of training facilities, free coaching, free room and board. What's the third-string long snapper worth?
The old deal was pretty good. And they damn sure don't deserve a penny until they enroll in the school they will attend.

The kids want to know where they are on the pecking orders… because schools will pay that for some to visit but not others
No they dont, the parents are just looking for money.

Recruiting has to be such a shitshow for coaches nowadays.
Interesting how Alabama is declining now that what they've done for 15 years is commonplace and the playing field has been leveled.

As an ex auditor and CPA, I'm moderately excited to see all the tax fallout from this.

It's actually 21%. One school out of 16 makes up 21% of the players from the conference in the NFL. It's a larger disparity than you thought.
the number of big 10 players in the nfl I googled included the pac-12 schools already. My bad

Well the days of staying in the Dorms for a visit are over...you need to fly 1st class, stay at the local 4* hotel, eat in a fancy restaurant.

It’s not a terrible idea.
Hey dad, OSU wants me to visit. I already know I’m going to Michigan. Should I go?
Ehh, ask for $5k.

Is this legal?
