As an attorney, win, what do you think the chances of that rule ever surviving? Seriously, a product is worth what someone is willing to pay for it, economics 101. So if a rich alum is willing to pay a stud player $x millions who's to say that player didn't do enough to earn it? Anything prohibiting that payment is restraint of trade. And if you want to argue it further, how much value does the last player on the bench bring? Is that player entitled to zero NIL money?winwave wrote: ↑Tue May 03, 2022 10:31 pmI think we all hate it. There's an easy fix though. The one rule they do have is the NIL money has to be commensurate with what the player does for it. He's not going to put in enough to merit $3 million.Bicoastalwave wrote: ↑Tue May 03, 2022 5:39 pm I really hate that CFB is about to get much worse for everyone.

I think it holds up. When you're paying them something that's so much more than you would pay anyone else for the same work it screams that it's an illegal inducement to play for a certain team. This isn't economics 101. It's about amateur sports and the court didn't declare them employees.
So the NCAA can still regulate it. It will get challenged and we'll find out what the court says. I think the court sees the mess its already created.

Seems like it would have been a better solution than what we now have. However it may be one of those things that you’d have to offer all the student body equal opportunity.Oh Brother wrote: ↑Fri May 06, 2022 11:53 am The schools should be required to turn over a percentage of sports revenue to NCAA for benefit of athletes and all should share equally regardless of sport or talent level. This should be enough money to cover basic needs outside those provided by scholarships, maybe 10k per. If a great player wants to skip college or leave college to go pro, then they should be allowed to do so. In this way, the athletes are treated fairly and the exploitation criticism goes away.

how much does the school get for offering free education, room, board and healthcare, since if they did not offer athletics, the player nil opportunity would not exist... but why cloud the issue with facttpstulane wrote: ↑Sat May 07, 2022 9:45 amSeems like it would have been a better solution than what we now have.

I couldn't agree more, 'nut. I think the old system actually benefited the athletes across all sports way more than the Universities have received credit for. A dominant majority of these athletes don't go pro. And the vast majority of them are set up for a much better life with the education they receive. Many have better quality of life than they had at home. The sad fact is the players that will benefit the most from the latest system are those that probably will need it the least upon graduation. Yes, there will be exceptions. Maybe we'll have a situation like we had at SMU in the 80's. Eric Dickerson once joked that he wanted to be traded from the Rams because SMU Alumni paid more than Georgia Frontiere and the Rams. Imagine how much he would have been paid at SMU if NIL was in place!

No doubt about it. Developing & producing compelling nil content requires effort & talent. The Alabama's, USC's & Notre Dames of the world will have built in blow torch for distributing nil $. In the end I hope that developing compelling content will have a place for athletes to outsource their nil activity, or take a more hands on approach.

The NCAA has “spit the bit”, or it might be more accurate to say that the courts and state legislatures ripped the bit out of their mouth. I’d be surprised if the NCAA touches NIL, and if they try to, expect the FBS or P5 to completely split away from the NCAA. The NIL pandora is out of the box. I shake my head all the time
at how much companies will pay for incredibly lame commercials. So how can one judge that a car dealer, or any other entrepreneur alum, has overpaid an athlete to sit, talk and maybe sign autographs for a couple hours? No way to put a value on that—it’s worth whatever the car dealer is willing to pay—common sense be damned.

Ed Daniels and JT Curtis, on their post-Cotton Bowl game show, discussed the “non-recruiting” of Tyjae Spears. Of course, we recruited him, but college football’s royalty (USC and youknowwho, e. g.) did not.
Ed said he saw Tyjae in high school and could not believe he had more big time offers.
It reminds me of Saban’s comment about not recruiting Mewelde Moore in his then own back yard (Baton Rouge). Saban said something like, “He slipped away from our attention.”
JT said that is why college recruiting is not a “science. It is a guess.”

Wow what a beautifully written declaration. His run in the AAC championship was the best I’ve ever seen in person. Good Luck! Tyjae!

Tyjae: NFL or NIL?
Looking at the RBs selected in rounds 2-4 last year, getting Tyjae a $1 million dollar would be around what those guys got guaranteed.
That's if he goes as high as round 4 or higher. Going lower, like round 6 or 7 might get him only 70-100k in guaranteed money.
For those more privy to such information, what's the most a Tulane NIL deal might get him? I have no idea.
Interesting that it now throws a wrinkle to loyal players that might be on the fence about coming back or not. Like imagine he could get 500k guaranteed to come back to Tulane. That's got to make it a tough choice.

Thank you Tyjae for all you did for this program! Good luck in the NFL!
