So, what is the current state of CFB?  I guess the main metric would be money.  Are eyeballs down or up?

UNLV is undefeated but now down a starting quarterback after he quit, citing NIL as the reason

Doesn't matter who the proponents are.  Restricting NIL capability for a specific class like NCAA athletes has always been illegal.

Congress F'd up big time.

Scholarships, room and board, food, training and medical care wasn't enough?

Gimme a break.

I get what you're saying and I agree with the sentiment that this change is bad for college football, but it was ILLEGAL to prohibit NCAA athletes from doing what every other single person in this country was free to do.  It's been illegal forever.  It has never, not been illegal.

And has Congress actually enacted anything on this yet?  As far as I know it's still the state laws that are presiding.

Honestly many of the state laws for NIL still have some fairly strict provisions that restrict the freedoms of NCAA athletes more than all other classes of people, so in time I expect those to all be challenged and struck down.  There is no legal basis for discriminating against NCAA athletes.

I mean it is clearly not, given what we've seen the market do. The fact that people stole from athletes forever isn't a good basis to keep letting them do it. But the reasons pros have agents and sign contracts are good, which is why the NCAA should move more in that direction.

$1,000,000 for the head coach and $500,000 for assistants wasn't enough?  $1,000,000 for the AD wasn't enough?  

Give me a break.

$2,000,000 for the head coach and $1,000,000 for the assistants wasn't enough?  $2,000,000 for the AD wasn't enough?

Give me a break.

$5,000,000 for the head coach and $3,000,000 for the assistants wasn't enough?  $3,000,000 for the AD wasn't enough? 
Give me a break.  

Rinse, repeat.  
You see where I'm going with this?  I agree with you that we should've just been fine with scholarships and room and board, until we were paying everybody else OBSCENE amounts of money.  We went all out for everything else just to avoid paying the players.

The portal is an even larger problem.

The big schools can simply buy players, and tampering is rampant.
