Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[Brillovol]

America is all about capitalism. NIL is dripping in capitalism. More power to the students to make what they can make.

It's just gonna end up being a bunch of influencers, however.

"Hey guyyyyyyyyyyyyys..."

I grew up with Elvis and Beatles music, and then the 70s and 80s music surpassed all that. I would not put any single Beatles song in my top 100 of all time. So forgettable.

OTOH many Elvis songs are still great songs today.

80s and early 90s were probably the most unique era in music.

My question is: who tf would be douchy enough to charge a kid for a damn autograph, like it is 30 seconds of your time at most big deal

Zack Greinke says hello. Told a fellow player he wouldn’t sign an autograph for him if his kid asked

We all know that boosters have been paying players and their families for as long as any of us can remember. When Companies start doing it that's a whole new ball of wax. I'm not talking about Food City, I'm talking about Nike, Underarmour, Adidas and the like. They have reportedly been doing it in AAU basketball by steering the recruits that play on the teams they sponsor to the schools that use their equipment. New cars, new houses and new jobs are small potatoes when you start talking about equipment contracts with Universities and potential contracts with coaches as well. Then you have the public school vs private schools aspect. State schools and there systems and how the money is generated and spent and the laws governing each state's school.

There are way to many unknowns and it will be years before the impact of the NIL is really seen. Remember were not just talking about Football and Basketball, we are talking about every sport at every school. I can set and come up with a hundred questions about who, what, when, where and why these payments can or can't be paid to athletes and if history tells us anything, it will be a mess to say the least. College Sports has always been a business and now the players are going to be a kind of like a subcontractor for the business.

Kids are commonly used props for memorabilia collectors.

 

[tnhunter 10]

No, they will charge their parents. If a Billion dollar corporation was using you to make them money while only supplying you with housing, education, food and clothes. It's similar to what the coal mines did in West Virginia in the early-mid 1900's. Every college player should be able to make money.

I agree. But, i wouldn't charge a child or his parent for an autograph after a game. Charging for an autograph may make that child not a fan anymore.

Try it, you wont regret it. Don't just get 1.

This will be the new way of paying recruits. Most these kids will be promised commercials etc before they step on campus.

Everybody is missing this...every booster with a business will be "hiring" recruits to do something that can be linked to NIL.
