    Default NIL Money

    https://www.foxnews.com/sports/top-f...through-report

    When will we see the first reparations conversation for student athletes who were "wronged" by not being able to collect on their NIL? Crazy amount of money this kid was looking at especially considering he's not even ranked in the top 5 of his class- how much is old Arch getting??

    Now kids will be sitting out high school games

    And as money continues to erode team play and worship the individual, the quality and beauty of football will diminish.

    Everyone will soon enjoy a pay cut. I hope coaches who supported this system are the first to take pay cuts.

    If they are wronged shouldn’t they be entitled to legal action? Don’t really see where that is even a conversation. As long as there was a legal deal in place.

    "Wronged" is when Dad boxes your ears for something your brother did. "Wronged" is not playing football under a scholarship or Pell Grant. It's a privilege.

    Spin bullshit how you want, not meeting the terms of any legal agreement should be terms for suit. You would be pissed if your employer told you they would pay you $100 a hour and didn’t come through.

    That’s exactly what is happening here. He signed an agreement that netted him $13 mil for going to Florida. Be did that and they didn’t come through. No matter how you look at it, he got screwed, and should be entitled to legal action.

    With that said he shouldn’t be allowed to get out of his letter of intent.

    I was referring to something the OP said on the subject of reparations for those who played before NIL and not the link he posted.

    I stand by what I wrote in that context. College is a privilege that is subsidized by booster clubs and Pell Grants for ball players. For that reason, I am against any discussion of reparation NIL funds.

    How did he get screwed he hasn't played a down hell he hasn't even practiced. The deal is not between him and Florida it's between him and a collective. Florida is not allowed to know the terms. The collective promised him money they didn't have and a donor backed out. The collective wanted to renegotiate and I guess the kid is holding out. I don't see how he can sue when he hasn't lived up to his end of the agreement.

    Bottom line is the ncaa needs to start monitoring this stuff. There's a lot of tampering that's the main reason you see so many players in the portal.

    I am referring to players that were not allowed to capitalize on NIL as in past players.

    Gavin Newsome started all this shit. Hard to believe as irrelevant as Commiefornia is to college football, they still managed to fuck it all to hell.

    Commiefornia

    This is all the explanation you need

    Honestly I scratch my head and wonder WHY anyone would pay these kids that kind of money

    Reminds me of the IPO crap back in the 1990's It will bust sooner or later

    If y’all are letting your boys play travel ball past 5yo you’re just asking for him to get hurt before he makes it to the league.
