NCAA Prez Proposal
« on: December 05, 2023, 07:30:19 PM »
From the Athletic:
The 'haves' separate into their own division, and directly use NIL dollars to pay players, through a trust fund.  Directly, not separate like now.
Would have to offer at least half of all athletes $30K/yr.
They'd get to form their own rules, roster size, and scheduling.  

Possibly would require half the monies to go to female sports.
Schools would opt-in to be part of this sub-division.

Well, I hope all your schools enjoy it. I'm pretty sure mine won't make the cut.

This sport sucks.  

I'm not positive about this because it won't be intentional, but I won't be surprised if this was my last year of serious fan engagement with my team.  

Portal's open again....players are leaving, some are probably coming.  I can't keep track and am losing the desire to try.  Most everything about the amateur-status, student-athlete sport I grew up loving has changed.

Yup.

Sure would be nice if Texas could pull out one last NC before I run out of fucks to give about the sport.

I hear you.  If I were to wind up being over it, bummer of a way to end with that wretched defense, BUT, heckuva ride with that offense for the year.  

I'd never admit this to anyone but you folks here, and most probably won't believe me anyway.  My supply of damns given had already been somewhat depleted by 2019, and believe it or not, I didn't get nearly the high from that season like I did '03, '07, or even '11.  Don't get me wrong, it was still fun, but I could tell even then that something inside had changed.

Whats the force behind this

Who out there is the decision maker requiring this to take place

I predict congress will get involved before this is over

Actually, it makes perfect sense. Just like defense dept contracts are designed to spread the love around to as many Congressional districts as possible, if there are ANY prominent schools that are excluded I can only imagine that the Reps from those districts (and those nearby / in their state) will throw a fit.

Think about it. Will Illinois and Northwestern make the cut? Minnesota? Indiana/Purdue (obv ND will make it). Arizona/ASU? Colorado/CSU? Kansas/KSU? Syracuse? Rutgers? Probably several others, but that's a bunch of states right there primed to throw a fit. And some of them might even do so if only one of the two state schools get in, because they're beholden to both fan bases. What about if UGA makes it but GT doesn't? I'm sure the Reps from Atlanta will join in. 

They'll want to parade a bunch of CFB powers that be in front of them for hearings. It'll get their faces on TV protecting the purity of the sport.

if you read the article it seems the intention is to divide by Athletic dept budget #.

Over a certain number of millions can afford to pay 50% of athletes $30,000 per season

Programs in the B1G and SEC with the TV revenue are almost there
