Maybe I need to read the article again...

Is that saying with revenue sharing coming online there will be a limit to what NIL Collectives can pay? That article seems to suggest that the big money will level out. How is that?

To hell with coaches and facilities. NIL is the most item in college football.

This is what the NCAA was trying to stop.  But the hypocrisy and greed of everyone else in the sport getting paid a “market rate” while walk-ons got nothing and scholarship athletes were eating ramen noodles in the offseason broke that model.  The ONLY rational way forward to get sanity and fairness back with a large healthy FBS would about 80-100 teams coming together and becoming an actual league.  No less than 50% of all revenue (not including home ticket sales and merchandise sold on campus) would be shared equally.  Lots of other things would have to be done but most of them include cushy fat cat positions going away, and others taking 50% pay cuts.  The athletic departments would have to surrender a lot of power to the new league/NCAA along with the revenue sharing.  We all know that isn’t happening.  And we are on a slow road to College Football regular season ratings going down and playoff ratings going up while it is new.  Then after the newness wears off we will have FBS looking more like College Basketball.  Dramatically less interest in regular season football with few being familiar with great players outside of Heisman contenders (and/or projected 1st round Quarterbacks).
