How many of you would be okay if your job told you that for all the hours of work you put in that they will pay for your food and your room and board and your medical, but not actually pay you any income?

Yeah, because that is an apples to apples comparison.

This is what will ultimately end college sports programs other than Men's Football, Basketball, and maybe Baseball to go along with the equivalent women's sports. Everything else will be eliminated due to "equality".

I think the women's sports should receive equal NIL, after all they play as equally well as the men and generate just as much revenue.

Recruiting has been a complete and total **** show. On the defensive side at least. 23 was ok, 24 less than impressive.

Honestly not sure if continuity was the answer. Need someone who can recruit as an elite level.

And for a college degree that cost what???
$200,000??

When I was 18-19?
When a degree can earn you a million more over a lifetime verse’s a non-degree?

I would!!!

Where are you going to school where a degree costs 200k? And that's not a true cost. It costs the school maybe 500k total in actual costs to give scholarships to all 100 or so football and basketball players. They maybe would have 1 or 2 fewer professors without those hundred students.

Room and board again isn't an actual cost equal to the price they charge regular students.

Putting a fake price on something and giving it away isn't the same as fairly compensating a group of 100 athletes who earn you tens or hundreds of millions.

I thought that had been mentioned in the discussion; my apologies if I confused that with you.

I still say it's disingenuous and dangerous to call the IRS "a joke". They have been proven to be a political weapon of the federal government, and the weaponized income generation of the federal government, whose primary concern is to take your money and exert power/control over you.

Undermine that at your own risk.

They most certainly do that. I meant it more as they don’t even know all the tax laws and code but try to enforce it all the fullest of their power. They want all our money and if you are caught trying to cheat the system, throw you in jail.

That’s why W-2 employees are pretty much screwed because everything is subject to taxation and you can only do so much as compared to a business to reduce your tax burden.
