That’s laughable when you have Brucey the Bandit Pearl in your ranks. That whole argument is destroyed by Clemson. It doesn’t take into account that great coaches might actually like their current position. In the era of NIL, we’ll see booster clubs propelling their schools to new levels. Miami, SMU, hell even Duke football will have more than a fighting chance vs TV revenue and t-shirt fan SEC teams.

But carry on with the doom and gloom and be sure to tell me how I don’t get it.

I agree...but NIL can be overblown. The devil is in the details. Some of these boosters might have contractual details which will make a kid with a brain to say, no thanks. Also, NIL will create unintended consequences in the locker room.

All I know is organizations with lots of money will waste it. Schools are no different. Locker rooms are such a waste...mini-golf? Lazy rivers? Gaming centers? These just further alienate the students from the athletes.
