The earnings will be capped at some point, that's my prediction. Across the board, athletes will know how much they can earn, regardless of the school, and that will take any recruiting advantages away from programs that have more money to spend. 

I don't know legally how they can limit it. 

Unfortunately we are going to see a lot of bad things happen to kids. With money will come even higher expectations from the paying boosters on both the coaches and players. I can see some players finding themselves in bad situations, making bad decisions. 

There will be some cases where taxes aren't handled correctly and the players will be left holding the bag.

I see another major gambling scandal in the future of college sports...money of these levels will draw some seedy people seeking to cash in for themselves.

  • NIL is going to be a contributing factor for most commitments to any school these days.  I am thoroughly enjoying the saltiness online from Louisville continuing to land big time commits in this

  • I saw the Twitter stuff after I posted that reply so I know what you mean now. And I'm good over here. As long as Louisville stays out of Ohio, I don't really care what they're doing. ? Give

  • Just like you said, it's the NIL.  I think as more and more teams who aren't "blue bloods" in football start landing top talent it will become more normal for that kind of talent to spread out. T

The only thing the Supreme Court ruled was that they are allowed to make money. That's it. It doesn't say how much, how often, etc. They can and will find a way to limit it, if that's what they choose to do.

I don't see how if they are allowed NIL deals that anyone can limit it to just 1 deal or 2 deals or 10 deals.

The same way the NCAA has been limiting things for athletes from the beginning?

I look for the power 5 to break away at some point...nil and NCAA could force their hand.

That's another pipe dream that I see as unlikely.

You are probably right the more that I think about it. While the NCAA has zero control over D1 Football (outside of eligibility issues), they still control every other sport.

Owens has decommitted from Louisville. Not much of a surprise really. He was going to be hard to hold on to, and with the coaching change, it was almost a certainty IMO.

Supreme Court voted 9-0 that kids can earn money, NIL rules may change some...but it ain't going away.

Remember when they were fighting for 10-15 dollars a week for "laundry money" lol? I guess the old "hundred dollar handshake is a thing of the past.

A&M , Georgia, or Ohio State... One is different from the others.
