Too late. This pandoras box has been opened. Regulating the transfer portal is more important. When this happens then the monet' grabbing will be impacted.
I think so too. In the long run, a few teenagers will become millionaires, schools will suffer because of fan rebellion and non-attendance, and the locker room could understandably become toxic (Player A, a QB, running back, or receiver, getting $10M, Player B, probably a lineman, gets next to nothing).
The solution was to allow high school kids to go straight to the NFL, and keep the transfer rule like it was. There probably is no solution now.
NIL is Name, Image and Likeness. It's not you give me 500K to play. That is against NCAA rules. They can make money on the side using their NIL. That's what the Supreme Court ruled not pay to play. The right people are taking notice and starting to make some noise.
More of this needs to happen.

We expect the NCAA to enforce the rules and enforce them equally. Cough cough. What a joke
I took notice to A$M's class last year and how many of them ended up in the portal this year then I noticed that A$M class was a little down from last season. I suspect some supporters woke up.
Oh man…the non-blue blood schools are going to get hammered.
Do away with immediate eligibility for transfers and it would help a ton.
Then just enforce the rule against using nil to entice recruits/transfers and we're about there. It's not complicated. It's just nobody has the guts to do it.
NCAA has no power
