Yep. With the amount of players Ohio State is getting into the fold now, it leaves me to believe they weren't paying players before NIL. It seems they have just realized the power of the purse in this game.

Right, wrong or indifferent…….. in today’s environment, they had no choice.

The problem for flurDah! is how they made a mess of it themselves ...
They gave Rashada a $13 million NIL quote to get him to sign.
Then they told him; "Well ,,, you see, we don't actually have $13 million for you. But we can give you 1⁄10 of that. How's that sound to you? "
They broke the rules by first offering a kid a monetary value before signing.
Second, by not setting an NIL contract that offers the kid $$$ for endorsement opportunities.
Third, by offering the kid $$$ under false pretenses which they never intended to fulfill upon signature.
You can call it the Wild Wild West all you like.
But they knowingly and purposefully broke the rules.

Re: NIL Collectives Convene in Florida……….
They may have did that, but the NCAA making rules after the fact are the biggest issue and the fact that they let things evolve to the point where they are infact toothless.

Re: NIL Collectives Convene in Florida……….
Rather than using my own words, I’ll use this guy’s words…….. I think he’s got it right.
Every group in and around College Football is guilty of contributing to this current mess……. from players, coaches, athletic directors, school presidents, school governing bodies, conferences, conference commissioners, donors, boosters, the NCAA and corporate America.
I could go on a peed-off rant about right now, but I’m not supposed to mix blood pressure medications and alcohol!!!!!!
Hell…… this thing is so screwed-up the Congress of the United States of America won’t touch it. Well, that is probably a good thing…….

That’s my take………. I believe it’s time for me to also toss in my paddle and wave my white flag.

I will follow until the end and hope they get something that looks reasonably like what it should look like.

Re: NIL Collectives Convene in Florida……….
I’ll check and see how I feel about all this chaos in 7 months……. 
In the meantime, this approach is worth watching in today’s environment, makes sense to me. Shop around and get yourself a good used car.
This is what I like about guys like Deon, he looks, he sees and says ‘Let’s beat ‘em at their own game.’

Re: NIL Collectives Convene in Florida……….
Well…….. I’ll say it no matter how much denial there is. The College Football Model is on its deathbed, and is on the verge of looking just like the NFL. HELL, there’s Free Agency with the Transfer Portal, there’s Pay For Play with NIL, and LOW AND BEHOLD, it’s going to a TWELVE TEAM playoff model that’s very similar to the NFL Playoff, and tell me that the BIG and the SEC don’t look like the coming of a merger about to happen, just like AFL and NFL did.
‘College Football Model, so to speak, has been prostituted for money……. ‘while Rome burned’.
