- Rebelgecko 3y agoI imagine he's actually being out-earned by some of top players' NIL deals. I think it's a tricky situation. The previous NCAA rules were idiotic and unfair to players. The current situation is better for players, but I'm worried that we're moving towards a future where the best teams are just the ones with the deepest pockets (or whose boosters have the deepest pockets). Considering most teams are already unprofitable, it could further increase stratification between P5 and G5 teams. Maybe CFB needs to implement a per-team salary cap.
- lotsofpulp 3y ago>Maybe CFB needs to implement a per-team salary cap. Maybe schools should not be involved in professional sports in the first place, especially one that inherently causes brain damage. Let the NFL owners pay for a minor league.
- jabradoodle 3y agoWhy should the workers wages be capped; why not cap how much money the team can make and tax the rest?
