Very enlightening thread
Wow. Some of this is mind-boggling
Pro players could only wish they had it so good. No salary caps on anything, no multi year contracts to prevent you from hitting the portal whenever you need a new deal, no draft to stick you with a school where you dont want to be before achieving free agency. Early entries for the draft may become a thing of the past because a lot of these guys will have it way better in college.
If I'm a stud player, who would I leave early for the draft? just shop yourself around and play your Sr year in college- you'll earn more than in the NFL. And, there's no guarantee that you'll get a 2nd contract in the NFL. So staying in college your Sr year = 5 years of pay, vs possibly just 4 if you went proQuote:

Honestly I'm SHOCKED half goes to non-football, I thought it would be lower. Wish there was a "baseball" breakdown so I can get an idea of whether we have a chance to compete by pooling our money there. If
The football NIL breaks down to 17,000 per D1 starter. Or 375,000 per school. But last year Bryce has $1,000,000 before ever taking a snap, and A&M is rumored to have spent $30,000,000. Point is, for the "average" to be $375k while these top doge shell out so much, it's clear there's a whole lot of lower level D1 schools that have practically nothing going. Probably over half if I had to guess.
Will be interesting to see hat happens moving forward I see no signs the NCAA will grow a pair and save this mess. I see all the signs that super conferences of elite teams are going to be the future. Right now, we have a 2 tier CFB- The P5, and the G5 that effectively have no path to a championship. In the future, I think we'll have 3 tiers; inject a "P5 have nots that aren't in a super conference" tier between the 2 we have now. Will State's SEC status drag us into tier 1 to be the punching bad of the rich schools with NIL money? Or will we be relegated to p5 have nots where we could genuinely compete as being the best of that group? Will we split into 2/3 "championship" tiers, or will there still be 1 championship game that half the most of the country has no path to make or win?
I'll be interested to see how it goes. If we can stay elite in Baseball I can swallow whatever path this goes. If we get outspent so much we realistically can't win a Natty in any sport at the "superconference" tier... Id rather drop a level to the "p5 have nots" and play real armature college sports again
This is exactly what I see happening and have been discussing it offline with CoachNorm. The question is, will we, and other teams in our situation, make the move and create the middle tier or will it be decided by the powers that be who see more tv revenue in Alabama vs. Michigan instead of Alabama vs. MSU or Ole Miss.Quote:

The thing I fear the most is losing top talent and production off our roster every year.
There will be some irritated folks when MSU has a freshman AA transfer out simply because of more $$$$$$ somewhere else.
You all worry about shit that won?t happen if ever for years. Hell they cant even decide to add more teams to a playoff. Most of us will be pushing up Daisy?s and things will still be the same or boosters will get tired of wasting money on thugs who take the dough then transfer again.
You're not giving anyways so your thoughts don't matter.Quote:

Likewise the BIG will be absorbed by Fox and its will be the other sheriff in town and will determine its own playoff parameters. Organizations outside of that new footprint will not have a seat at the table either. When ESPN and Fox crown their champions, they will play for the CFB championship. Playoffs will be determined in house with no outside input.Quote:

They did not transfer one athlete, they transferred a whole program?Quote:

I agree 100%. There needs to be some type of structure across the board. There should be a cap that is the same for all schools/athletes, and there needs to be some sort of transfer rule in place.Quote:

Race has zero to do with being a useless parent or guardian and to then blame the kids outcome on somebody else.

That's a damn lie. People that have money don't brag about it.Your just the community idiot wannabe. However, if you've paid all the money you've said to MSU I appreciate the money you paid me chump while I was there.Quote:
