    Louisiana High School Athletic Association voted to allow its athletes to receive NIL money yesterday. We are completely down the rabbit hole now!

    The sad part is college football has absolutely nothing to do with college and it's been that way for many, many years. The reality is buying players has been going on for years and NIL just allows it to be done publicly. Now that it's out in the open, the sums of money will be larger because now colleges can funnel money through some company and it's all legal. The purity of college football has been long gone and now it's just about who is willing to fork out the most money is going to get that particular player.

    Very true! AAU basketball might have been even be more corrupt, which is saying a whole lot!
