Not to mention a veteran who knows the system
Bingo! This more than anything will be a plus to tOSU defense. It will help having a player already familiar with Knowles's defense to help others in his position group.

We'll continue to see some Wild Wild West stuff like that for a couple of years, but I still believe the market will eventually settle out.  It'll only take a few busts of 1-year million-dollar QBs before the random boosters realize the return on their investment isn't worth it.

This.   If you actually look in the portal now there’s a lot of players who are very likely not to land anywhere.

Yeah, this doesn't move the needle for me.

Recruits have always had different incentives to choose where they choose.  This just adds a new one.  To be honest I (as a fan, not speaking to player rights) HATE the transfer portal, but don't really care about the NLI stuff.  If guys want to waste money on bad investments, that's America.  And if the investments turn out to not be bad, then it appears the players actually cashed in on their true value.  I can't oppose any of that.

General consensus is we're behind on the NIL stuff.  The Baton Rouge/Louisiana businesses haven't caught on to the new world yet.  Most people familiar with Eli Ricks' departure think that not being offered an NIL deal was a big reason why he left. 

Probably so, but in his particular case you also have to think he felt bait-and-switched.  He signed up to play for a program that had just put together maybe the most incredible season in history.  What he got was two years worth of hapless defense, a coach who had lost the locker room and was targeted by the admin, and a program that crumbled in record time.  I don't like losing him, but I also can't blame him for wanting to go to Alabama, or Ohio State, or wherever he feels like his career can finish on a brighter note.

You don't.  You have a standard-issue SEC bag program.

I won ROTY back in 2006 and POTY in 2007.  I think my achievements warrant me a lucrative partnership with cfb51.com

Isn't that exactly what NIL really is anyways?  

I expected some flak after our great recruiting haul, and as long as they are following the rules as set forth I'm good with it.  But I seriously doubt that we can outbid the rest of the country for the top players for long.  I'm betting that whatever we did this year will soon be copied and replicated for '23.

The ags didn't do anything sophisticated.  Literally just bags of cash, same as always.  All of the rest of that post is just typical internet message board bulljive.  There's a legitimate reason that it sounds exactly like fan fiction...

But y'all certainly handed out MORE bags of money than usual this year. Don't worry, the NCAA now has much bigger fish to fry and won't be coming after you.  That's precisely why your boosters did it.

But there won't be any need to accept bags under the table going forward in a few years, the legit money over the table will dwarf it.  The ags will have plenty of donors to help with that but, as you said, so will many other programs.

Well, it might be what it is, but it's not what the spirit of NIL was meant to be...

NIL was supposed to be an alternative to pay for play. It was to not limit athletes from making money outside of the school based on their fame. 

Instead it's already simply becoming a pay-for-play by the boosters so it's not officially by the university.
