The NCAA will allow athletes to profit from their name, image, and likeness

You must have missed it.  Go back a page.  There is a Texas HS player who might forego his senior year, and join Ohio State this year.  For the possible $1 mil in NIL opportunity.  Pretty impressive.  But he is the #1 recruit.

Oh I know, I'm not hinting that.  I know he de-committed from Texas after the Red River game.  I just think it's pretty awesome to know there is opportunity for NIL the sooner he gets on campus.

It stinks.

At the end of the day- the rules are the rules and NU needs to respond aggressively with a team that helps athletes understand how to brand and make money. Secondly they need to figure out a way within the rules to help amalgamate the fans and businesses so they can engage so the players can make as much as is humanly possible. That will be the fuel that drives recruiting in the future. It is what it is.

I think in 2 years it will all go away, and get replaced with a CFB (Athletics) salary.  Schools will have to pay it. 

For example:  250 student athletes; $24,000 year paid allowance (during school year) plus the normal scholarship stuff.  That's $6 million a year;  Or the equivalent of a first quarter football game played at El Paso (Bowl Game with a 6-6 record).  The money is there for the students.  It always has been.

 NOT true. 

". According to the NCAA, among the 65 autonomy schools in Division I, only 25 recorded a positive net generated revenue in 2019."
