College Athletes can now be paid directly by schools to play

A CBA will be coming in the next few years.

Also, I suspect the other 27 conferences to eventually break away from the NCAA and form some other entity because the NCAA approved the settlement without giving any thought to the little guys.

I suspect we’ll then see a group of teams outside of those 27 conferences that are on board with paying players join together and create a 5th power conference to go along with the P4. Basically G5 schools that generate $50M+ in revenue (JMU, Fresno, Boise, UNLV, Colorado State, SDSU, UConn, Liberty, USF, Memphis, ECU, etc.).

This is terrible for college athletes as a whole and I completly disagree that college athletes should've been receiving a portion  of the money they generate from the college they represent. 

I think he colleges, that were, making money from Names, Images and Likenesses should have been forced to use that money to decrease overall tuition cost to accomplish what the purpose of the institution, which is educating the people, instead they've all been linking their pockets and raising tuition every year. 

Now they're going to monetize these kids directly because they don't give a Fat Albert about them, but their development, not their mental health, Nothing!

I am wondering if it will eventually get to the point that a guy like Bryce Young, if he fails in the NFL, can go back to college and pick up where he left off and make a lot of money.  


Funny… get a 2nd, 3rd, 4th degree.

Thats terrible for the sport though because that behavior would block opportunities for younger guys which would impact the NFL down the line.

So what happens when the kid underwhelms relative to his compensation to play college football for Whatever State University?  Can they now be cut/fired, because they're employees more so than student athletes, or will the "their just kids, let them grow" narrative remain?  Business is business, can't have the cake and eat it too.

Think questions like this among other things is why we’ll see a CBA in a couple years. Eventually I think we’ll see college athletes, at least the elite one’s, signing contracts.

Ummm... they've been monetizing them for decades. Now they're just forced to actually pay the help.

      Of course your not looking at that it doesn’t fit your narrative. Caleb inherited a mansion and they kept adding prices his second season

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.
