frick that. They will force NIL to be spread equally amongst the athletes. Which means the womens sports will poach NIL from mens sports so they get their equal share
This will never happen. These collectives technically shouldn't be legal either, its not a salary for just being on the team. The purpose is literally NAME IMAGE and LIKENESS. It should be individual values, the 4th string OL that now gets paid has essentially $0 in value.
The women bench players have $0 in value.
If they forced it to be equal, the men would just sue.

This particular bill is terrible, but the courts are essentially forcing legislative action in general because they keep ruining college sports. Legislation is the only way to regulate now, because judges have completely neutered the NCAA.
To be fair, the courts are only "forcing" legislature because the NCAA did such a poor job getting in front of this and "legislating" from the front end that they are now getting their hand forced on the back end.

There’s a few that have value with their social media but yeah none of these kids are selling anything and most fans couldn’t tell you who they’re endorsed by other than a collective.

Or drop all but football, men’s and women’s basketball, baseball and softball, and keep one women’s sport. Reality taking scholarship opportunities from men and women whose sport isn’t football basketball or baseball.

athletes would be able to transfer “freely” and do so without penalty or restrictions, according to the bill.
So, this bill would fix the already out of control transfer portal by making it even easier for players to jump ship anytime they want, as many times as they want.
Who is stupid enough to think this is a good idea?

If athletes received NIL money, they should pay for their cost of attending school.
I don't know that I want a complete remake of college sports, but the revolving door needs a door wedge. Allow one transfer per athlete plus have to sit out one year, and the transfer nonsense will stop.

He’s not wrong on NIL and collectives. None of these kids are worth a dog turd or selling anything with their actual name image or likeness. I’m fine with them getting paid since that box has been opened but it does need some sort of regulation/intervention. Theres no reason why some kid is worth millions before ever stepping foot on a field/court
I disagree. Who are you to say that a company shouldn't pay someone, anyone, a certain dollar amount to advertise for them? If Nike wants to sign an unproven NBA rookie to a multimillion dollar shoe deal, that's their right. If they lose money on the deal because he ends up sucking, that's on them. Eventually the market will fix these things. Yes, early on these high school kids are signing huge deals, but as these companies start losing money because 75% of them aren't going to be as good as they were hyped, they will slow their roll on doing that in the future.

Florida and Georgia to the ACC.

Schools must be in the same fricking time zone?
The SEC isn't splitting because FL/USC/UT/UGA/UK are in the eastern time zone.

conferences would need to include teams within the same time zone, with travel and academic concerns cited as reasons.
Oh yeah, this'll go over well

Require conferences to be composed of schools in the same time zone.
So Alabama and Auburn could legally be in the same conference with Texas Tech or North Dakota State by these rules. But they can’t be in same conference with Tennessee or Georgia across the state line. Makes perfect sense*
Who are these morons??
Edit:
Tennessee and Vanderbilt need to be separated too. Send Vandy up to Minnesota and send Tennessee to play at Syracuse. No more competing in the same state

No it didn't. It started down hill when the TV money came into play. You take the money, they own you.

So coaching salary is only 10X cost of school attendance?
So for a Louisiana resident to attend LSU is $11,954 per year tuition. You telling me the most LSU can pay Brian Kelly is $119,540 per year?

NIL is about athletes selling THEIR Name, Image, & Likeness. they get them money for that not shared......
and even if shared revenue within the specific sports, why should a walk on that never plays get the same revenue sharing as a 5 star athlete......
And the time zone thing is BS..... easier to travel from Tuscaloosa to Athens then it is from Tuscaloosa to Ann Arbor.....
