I feel like NIL money is comparable to Bailā¦. They arenāt paying the million dollars in bail moneyā¦ no way guys are getting a million to play in college. Still even if they arenāt I hate the NIL as itās currently set up either way.
Yes this model does favor private schools, but yet it gives some element of reason to the present situation. W/O something like this there will only be three at most ā super conferencesā and the others will just be ā farmā teams for them. Football and BB drive the bus and support all the Olympic sports. If you drop to BB as the only revenue sport especially in Texas you eventually kill your entire athletics program! I use UTA as a prime example and they have baseball that at least contributes some revenue.
Agree. We will be fine. We have always played programs that had "more" and deemed "above us" throughout our sports history....and we look forward to those games!
But I would never be for dropping down to FCS or breaking away voluntarily. 1-AA was awful. They get no respect (or media) and still have NIL issues in those divisions too. No thanks!
