Re: BYU Built Bar
That article says:
"Among prohibitions, NIL compensation cannot be given or offered to players based on their enrollment at specific schools, meaning it can't be dependent on their commitment to play for a school."
So based on that shouldn't Ohio State be in trouble as they had a company offer a kid $1 million to drop out of. High School to go play there. And then Texas who now has a company offering the kid even more to go play at Texas now?

Re: BYU Built Bar
But can it be based on the value of being a 5* recruit? The policy is screwed up and it's why I predicted tons of unforeseen consequences. BYU is engaging in literal pay-for-play. If you sign up to play football for BYU you will have tuition paid for regardless of merit.ProvoAggie wrote: ↑December 11th, 2021, 12:46 amThat article says:

BYU probably wont win the "we can pay our players" most race but they were the first. I think the NCAA is trying to set boundaries. If a P5 school not named Alabama, Florida,, Ohio State or Georgia were to have been first the NCAA might investigate them.
The athletes had a narrow win in Alston and the NCAA caved to NIL as they partially had to & the writing was on the wall. But the NCAA probably does have an ability to intervene in relation to how athletes are paid when a member institution is directly involved in procuring the deal. We shall see.
Ultimately I think this was the first shoe dropping in the end of the NCAA's life.
