Thanks Taft!

This guy is an idiot.

Is pretty simple how it should work. Players are allowed to do endorsements if they like. They can also collect from having their likeness used for video games, etc. However, all the money collected from these pursuits get pooled into a fund that gets evenly distributed to every college athlete. That's the only way it would work, because if not, schools will then leverage endorsement deals as part of the recruiting process.

Maybe now the coffee cups will have sponsors on them.

It’s already been reported that high profile kids could get 5 figures for calling in to radio shows at a certain university. And many can make $10,000 plus per mo on their social media.

This won’t effect 90% of the P5 schools. It will however make the other 10% richer.

The unintended consequence will be the Diva factor. You’ll have sophomores in HS making bank on social media and sponsorships well before they even show up on campus.

Divas don’t do well on a Football field.

Some will, some won't. The NCAA could fix this by making all player generated income "pooled" and spread evenly to all college athletes. They then can make players collecting direct payments ineligible.

Nice try, but this places the University in control of the students monetary rights and that that defacto ownership will not stand up in court... that battle is over and students have the unfettered right to independently market and directly benefit. Amateur athletics is now pay to play and its totally above board to now do so. End of story i think...

I guess we'll now see who cares about athletics and who doesn't.

At least now, you don't need gym bags or coffee mugs. You just need a car dealership, radio station, etc. willing to fork over some dough, and you can buy your very own 5 stars.

well i think that we already know... in this conference its oregon, in the rest of the country, its pretty obvious who is spending money in a way that counts. The old term of "lack of institutional control" now means something completely different ~ those that fail are the ones not doing anything to create substantial value packages to offer the best recruits.

Sounds very @TheKobeStopper esque.

Lots of chatter from the Springfield contingent.
