The bolded things gave LSU and CFB Joe Burrow, and gave Joe Burrow the chance to find a team that would actually play him.
So he gets to partner in a up-and-coming technology with one of America's greatest entrepreneurs in his free time......instead of football, class, poverty and praying he doesn't get injured before he can get paid for his talents? This is objectively awesome. Any system that would force a college student to turn such an opportunity down is anti-capitalist and quite frankly, un-American.
@Robidoux87,.. i respectfully disagree with your posts regarding NIL,.. but i hope you're right and i'm wrong
I feel you bro. Easy to sum up my position in two bullets. 1) It's wrong to tell anyone that they can't own and monetize their name and likeness 2) This will be a change that will be mildly felt at first, and then we'll all barely notice it. The on-field product will be as good as ever. This interview with Jay Bilas, former college athlete and lawyer, I feel is pretty good. https://www.npr.org/2021/06/29/1011...-on-student-athlete-compensation-via-nil-vote
Of course, where are they? Ohio St, LSU, OU You won't find anyone from North Texas with a big NIL contract
