Did anyone even read my original post? I can't figure why anyone ever argued with me. I said players could have always been paid NIL money but it would have lost them their amateur status. It was Brunswick saying the NCAA 'forced' money to be donated and telling me I was flat wrong. NCAA didn't 'force' squat. Just told Gurley he would have to pay back the money if he wanted to be eligible. Everyone knew that.
