NIL act passed - NCAA allows athletes to monetise their name, image, likeness

What I don't get about this is where was the NCAA when NIL took off last year? They just sat back and watched

They ditched the efforts of their two-year committee of which RG was part. The Alston decision, and especially the Kavanaugh concurrence, spooked them. Rightfully so. Thus they issued the interim guidance right before State laws went into effect. That guidance was further expanded upon (not really) this week.

DI Board of Directors issues name, image and likeness guidance to schools - NCAA.org

The Division I Board of Directors on Monday issued guidance to schools regarding the intersection between recruiting activities and the name, image and likeness
www.ncaa.org www.ncaa.org

“Specifically, the guidance defines as a booster any third-party entity that promotes an athletics program, assists with recruiting or assists with providing benefits to recruits, enrolled student-athletes or their family members. The definition could include "collectives" set up to funnel name, image and likeness deals to prospective student-athletes or enrolled student-athletes who might be considering transferring. NCAA recruiting rules preclude boosters from recruiting and/or providing benefits to prospective student-athletes.

The guidance is effective immediately. For violations that occurred prior to May 9, 2022, the board directed the enforcement staff to review the facts of individual cases but to pursue only those actions that clearly are contrary to the published interim policy, including the most severe violations of recruiting rules or payment for athletics performance.”

The NCAA (probably): Texas? Texas A&M? Never heard of ‘em.
 
I’d complain about the nail in the college football coffin, but I’m pretty sure there’s some mother****er with a nail gun going to town on that bastard. There’s been like 150 nails in the coffin. How many more are needed?

Sure. They'll have parity among their 32 team NFL-style league with profit and rev share, salary cap, etc. just not across the rest of the current P5

You think the top 10 who dominate college football are willing to go that far? 32 teams with a realistic shot at winning a title would be a giant step forward compared to what we have now

I think in the NFL, there are only 8-10 teams in a given year that have a legitimate chance at winning a SB, which is probably on par with what a 32 team super conference in CFB would eventually have. Would definitely be a big step up from the current 3-4 legitimate contenders, but it would become a regional sport.

Think NIL blew up college sports? California is going for the knockout with new bill

Another potentially game-changing bill for college sports is on the move through the California legislature. Here's how it could upend the collegiate model.
www.yahoo.com www.yahoo.com

Schools would establish a degree completion fund for each athlete, and the contents of the fund — fed annually — would be made available soon after degree completion (within six years). If the athlete does not graduate within six years, he or she will forfeit the fund and it will go back into the athletic budget. Players would have immediate access to a maximum of $25,000 each year, while the rest would build over time.

The wording states that if an athlete transfers to another California institution, the degree completion fund will transfer after enrollment and be managed and funded by the new school.

If an athlete transfers to an institution out of state, the degree completion fund is forfeited.

It'll be interesting if the current powers (Bama, Georgia, tOSU, etc) are willing to give up something to allow more parity. Not sure they have any incentive to right now.

What is CU’s current rank in the CFB stratosphere? 65 or so? Too bad they can’t use historical rankings. Likely in the top 32.

I think the only argument you could make in favour of CFB is that you don’t absolutely need a top tier QB to compete like you do in the NFL and that even if you do have one the dynamics of the game mean you won’t have him for more than two to three years max unlike in the NFL where you’re set for a decade plus.

But on the flip side you have a handful of teams gobbling up all the elite talent elsewhere.

"One of the things I like to see us be able to work back to ... parity"

I cant blame him or anyone for capitalizing on the current system. Bravo to him for saying it and he's right.

Attendance is dropping. Interest is waning. The rest of the country is becoming apathetic.

The pattern of where the best is should be NO surprise to anyone. Does this become a regional sport?

Jeebus. I knew it was bad, but I didn't realize it was THAT bad.

I guess that's what happens when CU has only been to 1 bowl game for the last 14 of those years...

I pasted that in and then laughed out loud.

Then was like `WOW thats really bad'. All the school that won it all in almost 20 years were from the south except two. That seems like almost all the nails are already in the coffin.

Then I Went back and scanned the list again and looked further back.

This,

How many teams have made the CFP since they went to 4 teams, of those teams how many have been there mulitple times?

The 32 possible openings for participants have given us a grand total of 14 teams that have made it (8 years X 4 teams qualifying.)

Of those teams 6 made a single appearance meaning that the other 8 teams have filled 26 of the slots.

You can pick 32 teams that want to play "big time" football but realistically how many of those have a real chance to make the playoff in the next few years? Not many.
 
College football is regionally successful, but still very marketable as a TV product nationally. Compared to other sports, it is the most fun American sport to bet. The current setup will work as we transition to the AAA NFL league.

Phew, thank goodness for the CFP. I was one of those clamoring that it would make college football LESS interesting.
