I think Texas takes a step back with the new NIL rules

Because they will attempt, at the start at least, to follow the rules

While most mothers will cheat.

I highly doubt it. They have a built in advantage of being a national brand. Therefore, their QB can get 6-7 figure national brand deals that won't eat into their rev share numbers. There's also a bunch of money in and around Austin that they can use to their advantage. For example, Austin has a Lamborghini dealership. They can give 5 skill players lamborghini leases as well as some walking around money to do autograph signings, tweets, etc.

Whats going to happen to them if they dont? The NCAA is no more

Everything that is happening just helps the Blue Bloods.

No one will follow the rules outside of the ones who can’t afford under the table compensation.

I doubt it, but... all the blue bloods may take a step back because anyone can buy a player these days. All it takes is a Billionaire that wants it to happen. Texas Tech for instance is spending big time and will have a roster full of highly paid players shortly that is not going to Texas. It's easier than ever to make your team a blue blood, all it takes is money.

Playing by the rules? I see no way anyone does that.

Too bad nobody at State has been able to get George Bishop to fund athletics. Multi time billionaire.

There's State people who live near him in The Woodlands that say he just has no interest in athletics really. Everyone has tried. When he donated 100 million to the university a few years ago Keenum tried to talk him into donating 5-10 million for athletics and having 90-95 go to academics but he wouldn't budge.

To each their own I guess.
The Texas tech billionaire guy played football at tech. So he's an athletics guy.

Need to convince bishop that a successful athletic program increases enrollment and prestige for academics.

I just wish he'd get Keenum to focus more on Out of State recruiting instead of focusing on getting the graduating class of Clarksdale Lee, no offense to anyone who went to Lee. It's a fine school. I know of a lot of people that went there that went on to be successful. Of course I know the same number that flunked out after one semester.
