    They would have to do it with every school or alumni from the schools they left out would boycott. I think it is not going to be that big of deal. The same guys are going to sign with the same schools.

    To be fair, they already were. Now we're just admitting it.

    This will be the end of college athletics as we know it.

    Yep basically make up any reason you want to pay players. This is a disaster. I'm still amazed at the people that are so blind and can't see this. This will further separate the have's and have nots.

    Miami supporter giving half mil a year split to all players. What is to stop anyone from making ridiculous contributions and claiming NIL stuff. Piss poor leadership and idiotic followship.

    Just can't see this ending well. The ncaa can't run anything without it turning into disaster and this is opening the floodgates. Remind me again why even need the ncaa at this point?

    540,000 / 85 scholarships is 6k per player.... and the world is ending!!!

    Get a grip people. Grow up and accept the reality that the United States designates rights to people over 18 and receiving compensation is one of them.

    Yes I read the tweets. If a group of business in Florida pools money and give to UF and not the other schools those alumni will boycott those business. Like it or not they have to be political. Why you think that dumb ass Bo Bounds sounds so Pro Ole MIss all the time. Example: I will never buy from Cannon motors. NEVER!

    Mind you this isn?t the NCAA I don?t think - they lost their court case and now you have to scramble to figure out how to create boundaries inside the ruling.

    I don?t know how you do it and keep any sort of even playing field.

    Seems this model would cause a title IX issue. If the contracts are grouped and not individual, then all athletes for the university should have to get paid equally. That?s why it is Name and Individual Likeness ie. A one to one contract.

    This is what I'm talking about. Who's gonna regulate this and how? Wild Wild West as others have said.

    Fair point. But in truth, they have always been able to get legal compensation. Nothing prevented Trevor Lawrence from signing a million dollar deal with Nike 2 years ago.
