I mean, really ...

They've told us we're going to a pay for play, employment model, sooner than later anyway.

Player lawyers, representatives are simply trying to get as much in their own pockets while their relevancy remains viable on this topic.

It appears to me as the NIL Collectives are on a path to ‘owning’ the teams, as the schools are taking a hard line against the players becoming employees of the schools. Instead they will become employees of the NIL who will be a private contractor. After reading what Kirby Smart had to say, I suspect it’s already in place and in operation functionally.

It is getting very hard for me to be a college football fan anymore.

Ditto………. We’re losing this now that players, teams and titles are for sale.
