Trump thinking to eliminate NIL DEALS after meeting with Nick Saban

[VegetasHairline]

I don't have a problem with that, unless the coach that recruited you leaves for another opportunity. It would be a key man clause for college students.

I also don't think it should be a full year at first either. Something like
4 games
8 games
1 season for ever transfer after

 

[Trust Me]

Trump’s senile ass is not stopping anything. The NIL is here to stay.

I wouldn't put it past that piece of shyt to threaten schools by pulling funding (like he's doing with Harvard etc) if they don't listen to everything he says. I also wouldn't put it past him makin up some bullshyt executive order that states if the schools don't abide by his ruling, schools and/or boosters and students would be liable for criminal charges.

Yes. And it’s not just endorsements, it’s direct payment from boosters associated with programs under “collectives” that are also a part of the program
You think college players going to the highest bidder is good for college football?

Let me clarify: Players should be able to earn endorsements (I don’t believe they should have a cap on their earnings there), but there should be a hard cap on what a player can earn from boosters, collectives and universities

I feel you on both of these points, but if you think about it.. all that does is bring us back to 4 years and prior. They were never able to catch the Bama's and all the other cheatin ass teams out there when they made their payments under the table.. so what makes you think that it would be any different now?

Well if we’re going by this logic, then there should financial punitive language in NIL deals if I sign, don’t meet the requirements for appearances and bail with the cash, they should be forced to pay that back plus any court and lawyers fees. Cause that’s what happens when you break a contract in the free market. You don’t get to just skate with the dough and sign elsewhere for more dough.

That’s the thing if it’s a guaranteed deal you wouldn’t be able to leave. It’s like the NBA.

What we’re seeing now is pure capitalism and pure capitalism means they can do what they want to get the most money at any time.

NIL benefits white players as well but because most of the recipients are black they don’t like it.

And nothing will change mandating everyone have a base amount they have to share. The school with money will just use that offset the cost of the collectives payments. It’s not sustainable no matter how anyone chops it up because you’re basically crowdsourcing money for roster management. Fans are and will get tired of that. And those under the table payments are still being made. One of the homies who’s son ended up at UCF ain’t rich nor is he poor but the school gave the fam cash to get to Orlando and more. And that’s a team with no history and in a conference with a shytty revenue split from TV

There aren’t guaranteed deals in the NFL. Why would states/schools/collectives guarantee $$ to some barely out of HS kids? Especially since right after they sign them, they’re back out there on the trail looking for their replacements. And I keep seeing folks talk about collective bargaining like that’s the end all be all. The NBA has 450 players. The NFL has1700 players. And they can barely agree on their labor disputes internally. What makes you all think that 190,000 Division I athletes across all sports are going to be able to unionize and agree on an equitable labor agreement and distribution? Someone’s going to be heated that they’re getting shorted their piece of the revenue pie.

If they can’t do it then they shouldn’t control the kids options. Anything limitation on their ability to get paid without compensation is just like the system before designed to exploit the student athlete. For example if you wanted to force the kid to sit out to do a transfer the kid should be paid to do that during the that time.

Also saying fukking Donald Trump should decide this system with a EO after having dinner with Saban makes no sense. Better to let the college educated kids maybe vote on a system or the schools themselves.

Regardless the kids deserve to be paid for their time. These fukking schools have made billions off of free student labor.

 

[MoshpitMazi]

It shouldn't be regulated at all

Between saban and Tub I lost any and all respect for Alabama as a state and university

Oh yeah


Urban Meyer won.

Dont ask how

 

[O.iatlhawksfan]

Crazy thing is Saban would come back if this goes through where does he go

Why should they have to do anything? The system, even in its fukked up state, still benefits the schools. They’ll just wait on the athletes to come together and attempt to unionize. But again, unionization will only get them so far. The states with the strongest safeguards against at will firings are all ones with no significant athletic impact on the sport(s) (minus Cali). You know who got the weakest protections? Georgia and damn near every state below the Mason Dixon line. That gives them an advantage against other states. And in the political arena we’re in now, the Feds are gonna stay tf out of this as much as possible and leave it to the states

Cant win unless hes on some slave shyt


Bet those heisman and near heisman RBS he ran into the ground (other than henry and ingram) woulda loved the NIL.

The schools aren’t the ones out here complaining. The students aren’t the ones complaining. It sounds like it’s these coaches who hate the system and the fans who have no skin in the game.

I rather the shyt stay like it is than a bunch of peckerwoods get involved cause they hate to see mostly black students get paid.

 

[Dilltastic VolWon(derful)]

The coli and many young voters said both candidates were the same

H.Y.O.N.

 

[ajnapoleon]

What regulations would you like to see?

The blacks should not get any money

You know what it is

 

[Wargames]

I don’t even understand how the fukk Trump has any say on this shyt. This is at most something under Congress due to the commerce clause. He shouldn’t be able to do shyt and yet, he is going to legislate on this? shyt is crazy how much crackers empower that fukking idiot.
