Yes, they are. It's not simply that they are trying to maximize the money, but HOW they are doing it. Each player is entitled to do it however they want, but doing it in a way that is completely self-centered and void of any commitment to your team, your school, and its fans, then that is being greedy. Again, you're allowed to do it, but don't be offended if somebody calls you greedy for doing it. A simplistic analogy that stays on the sports field would be a running back that breaks away for the final first down with 20 seconds to go in a 1 point game. Instead of sliding down at the 40, he chooses to keep running in order to score another TD, but he gets the ball knocked out. The other team runs it back inside the 10 and is able to kick a last second FG to win. You could say that he's just trying to maximize his stats (true and valid), but his GREED in doing this cost his TEAM the game. Now, as has been said, this situation isn't the fault of one specific side but from multiple sources. But as was stated, the students are now starting to increase their impact on this runaway system. BTW - it was questioned in an earlier thread as to who started this whole NIL thing and as someone mentioned, it was Ed O’Bannon UCLA BB. https://www.on3.com/nil/news/what-are-nil-collectives-and-how-do-they-operate/

Our current SID doesn't give a crap about accuracy.

I bet the new coaches aren't even vetted by the University and officially hired until after the holidays.

Not only did SMU keep Alabama out of the playoffs, they let us watch them get destroyed in the playoffs. Thank you, SamU!

Or maybe you were being serious.🤣🤣
