Louisiana has amended its NIL law

Advertisement
I imagine at some point, the major players of college football will break away from the NCAA and have their own private enterprise of teams, almost like the nfl but at the college level, maybe as college employees. You'll see kids representing a college, but not have to go to college to actually take classes. Title 9 doesn't apply to professional sports so you may see a lot of controversy with that as well.

Seriously do we have anyone with some state policy knowhow that can provide some insight here. What’s the hold up. Needs to get done before recruiting season really picks up.

With all the red meat partisan bullsh!t on both sides that we call or attempt to call special sessions over in this state you'd think this could get fast-tracked.

God forbid our freedom luvin' state keep pace on something like this....while letting us be able to legally bet on college football....while buzzed from the hard liquor we bought in the aisle next to the deli at Publix....as we shook our heads at the people holding up the chicken tender sub line because they're stoned out of their minds off the weed they bought down the street at the local dispensary....that generated enough tax revenue that we no longer have to pay $26 in tolls each way just to go from Lauderdale to Key West or Kendall to Orlando.

Lol; yet, some how, some way ya’ll thought NIL was good for the game. Lol.

Told ya’ll, a lot of these politicians ARE boosters. lol. Man, this chit is so funny to me. There’s no uniformity, each state is doing its own thing, no parameters, no nothing. What could possibly go wrong? NCAA has every right to get involved in setting parameters & these peons r just sitting by idly.

Welp, paying attention to recruiting is going to be moot. It’s all about highest bidder, & the $$$$EC have been giving the combination to Ft Knox.

This ^^^
 
I really have to think this whole NIL thing is worst for the upper SEC teams. They had a huge advantage with their bags and the ncaa turning a blind eye. Now, others can put the money out there and the ncaa can’t stop them. Or at least it appears they can’t stop it.

They won't kick them out, they'll take scholarships or restrict recruiting like they usually do.

They had previously threatened to make all schools in California ineligible if they passed NIL laws (before the supreme court ruling), so no it is not kicking them out, but it would be not letting them play. Of course they dont have to threaten the same thing this time...

I don't think the NCAA needs any other schools in order to act, they can just say LSU did X Y and Z and is therefore in trouble.

They dont need them to act, but they need them to buy in is what I am saying. If they try to punish LSU and dont have the support of the other schools and particularly the SEC in this case, they will further lose whatever control they have left.

Funny how "unfree" Florida actually is.

But hey, you can marry your cousin here legally so we got that going for us.

Not that it's any secret but it is still eye opening to see these states sign actual bills to keep their college program competitive. LSU can do anything it wants based on that excerpt.

That bill changes nothing about how LSU has always operated. It's just above board now

Really thought Florida would be quick to amend since they were to quick to implement originally.

Florida will because our majority don't want UF to fall behind other SEC schools. I love it because all these people with issues with some are paying handsomely for people they wouldn't feed better than their dog.

Haha. Exactly. "Freedom" is one of those conveniently malleable terms that too many people shape based off their own political or cultural/moral bents. 'Cause I can also go to Texas and call bullsh!t with a bunch of similar examples and they kind of originated the shtick we're now spewing here.

That said, one could also go to Massachusetts or San Francisco and find similar hypocrisy. I kinda hate everyone. I just want an equal footing in college sports and not to have my vices (that don't blatantly endanger the public welfare) arbitrarily regulated by politicians that are the last people to have the moral authority to do so.

a change is going to come, but what form it takes, nobody knows. I will say the Confederates are really going to muck things up. Been a vile people for centuries.
 
This is nonsense.

Imagine a 17 y/o kid. You travel to LSU for a recruiting visit. You are enticed-come here and you will get x deal.

That same kid now comes to a Florida state school. No similar offer is extended. What's that kid supposed to think and do?

Love the sentiment, but u couldn’t be more wrong. SEC boosters care more about their sports than probably any other region. This has just emboldened them; not many conferences r going to be willing to go out in a str8 bidding war w/ them. Maybe if NIL (and I’m going to keep saying this) was actually constructed & enforced based upon its intent, ur line of thinking would have validation. However, all “this version” of NIL did was allow cheaters to be professional cheaters.

Let’s be clear, the bag game has been the bag game & every school crosses the line, whether it be marginally or flagrantly. What this NIL did was empower those bag schools who cheat flagrantly, to cheat exceptionally.
 
Hold up, I thought they were broke... seems theres enough money for football tho

My sentiments exactly. That’s a perfect analogy, actually. I, too, want kids to get paid. ****, I been wanting them to get paid. I nvr understood why dudes would see their team jersey up for sale in the student store & wouldn’t get a dime, or a signed program being sold & no compensation was given. That always bothered me. However, how NIL is constructed now, it’s going to be the Yankees, Dodgers vs. everyone else, & u just have to hope ur evals are top notch along w/ some portal guys to make it work like The Braves & Astros.

I was always against it from way back when the subject was only a concept. I always thought it was a terrible idea. Go back to my posts in the last 10 years lol
