Here’s the problem: the Clearinghouse is approving just about everything. They are supposed to determine if the deal is at fair market value. How can they determine that? There’s virtually no previous history, so unless the offer is completely outlandish, the offer IS fair market value because that is the market. If they try to be more stringent, they will get sued. The Clearinghouse was broken from the start.

Yes, there is no baseline for market value, and many coaches are already complaining about it. Also, one of the reason the lawyers and even the state AG in Texas has told schools to not sign the agreement that would allow the CSC to enforce issues that may be above fair market is language in the agreement.

Now if all schools were all to sign the agreement for the CSC to enforce and punish schools(meaning preventing the NIL deal to go through my understanding it could not be challenged in the courts as part of the House settlement agreed to this. The CSC would not be preventing players from getting NIL or transferring just not to get unfair market value because of rich boosters.

Until schools willingly give the CSC power there will be no cap or regulation of NIL.

Apparently, he is waiting on the NCAA to see if he has eligibility left coming from DIII. One fast white boy.

I only watch UA when they play unless somewhere other games are on as well at the same time. But after that I do not watch CFB unless I have tickets to go in person. Better things now to do.

AJ Harris is in the portal out of PSU. IIRC we recruited him but he went to UGA.

There is no clearing house any more. Three schools suck as Texas Tech and o think Indiana refused to sign so the agreement that the other schools signed off on is null and void. Heard that from a lawyer on radio.

---

What they were talking about is the CSC(college sports commission) which is supposed to enforce programs adhering to the new clearinghouse system for third party deals has not been signed by all schools including Texas Tech. The clearinghouse is still in place and none of it has anything to do with what a school can directly pay athletes.

New LB corps for next fall

Yeah? Who is enforcing that?

I assume the courts as that was settled in the courts with the agreement of the House. This has nothing to with the NCAA or a clearinghouse.

Not sure about that when they can leave again after one year

They can but what is better replacing starters every season or taking a chance to build a team like IU?

Bama is likely somewhere in the middle when it comes to money. Not in the upper tier with teams like Texas, Oregon, A&M etc and their seemingly limitless pockets. Or in the tier between the richest of the rich and the middle tier: teams like LSU and UGA

Nor in the bottom basically broke teams like most CFB teams (if you include G6 teams).

They just have to be smart (and lucky) about who they get and hope to avoid too many injuries that would test depth.

I posted a link the other day. Out of the 12 playoff teams we were 10th in estimated NIL spending. only ahead of the 2 g6 teams. The estimate is we are just over 20 million. aTm topped the list at 35 million last year. OSU and TTU were the next two on the list. All 3 lost their first game in the playoffs.
