Ohio State AD says recruits are demanding money to visit campus

I agree. However it is somewhat satisfying seeing all the cheating bag schools whining and crying about something that has leveled the playing field to a large degree(along with the portal).

Oh 100%. That’s y i said OK cool, u wanna cry wolf bout this, then how bout we impose stiffer penalties against ya’ll & ya’ll boosters. We ain’t going back to them days where u have an indisputable advantage.

The books need to be completely open & transparent

The market rate is $5K per visit. He forgot to mention that Taint DEMANDS players to visit and take the bag to keep them away from UM! Not sure how much of this is coming from the players or on the demands from the program to attend games and keep them away from other schools. Good for these kids either way, make that money while you can.
In an alternate timeline, what happens if he reveals a long list of names of recruits who demanded this. With text messages and other proof.

1. Does it help or hurt Ohio State with recruits going forward?
2. Does the NCAA render all of the players cited as ineligible for college sports?
 
I wrote this months ago.

The Big Bag Schools can’t use Miami as a scapegoat anymore, so they’ve gone crazy with their “legal” bag game. Taint is just the one we know about.

This is going to blow up in everyone’s faces and Congress is going to get involved, probably after a DOJ investigation into NIL being used as a cover for money laundering or other criminal activities. Plus the small programs with no bags will complain to their Congressional Representative and things will snowball from there.
 
Its just so typical. Its the reversal of roles, something thats happening in everydays life.

Perpetrators reverse their role into victims and the victims become the perpetrators. Its laughable. Recruits have received bags for decades, sometimes completely unprovoked bags just for a visit, and now, because they have probably received some money from a different visit (supply and demand, ya know), them asking for it makes them the bad guys.

BTW, OSUs AD makes two million a year. But the bad guys are the HS kids who want 5k for a visit. 😂

These bag schools are a little too comfortable with throwing recruits under the bus for the sake of absolving their own guilt in these matters.

I guess it's not so fun when you can no longer just give hush hush money to these fluffy handlers that latch onto athletes with 1 of their 19 chins for a meal ticket, and call it a day

“NIL was meant to allow players to profit from their name, image and likeness. In theory, it was designed for players to do ad deals, sell autographs and be paid to make appearances.

That’s not what’s happening at the highest levels of college football and basketball. Players are being handed bags of cash in return for little to nothing.”


As I’ve said since it’s inception, what we’re seeing is not NIL. This is not what The Supreme Court ruled in favor of. It was ruled that the NCAA or University could not & should not stop a student athlete from their potential earnings it can make from their NIL from a commercial sense, not from boosters anteing up $$ for a kid to go to their favorite school.

The flip side of this is this; the under the table bag schools who r crying about the out in the open bags, there needs to be stronger NCAA & Tax punishments for this to weed out that. U can’t just try to regulate NIL & then go back to the good ole bag days. Nah, if a University get caught w/ under the table deals w/ a “rogue” booster, then that School should lose some schollies & bowl eligibility for no less than 3 yrs (which is the requirement of a CFB student-athlete status b4 declaring for The NFL).

All of this chit needs reformation, if imma keep it 💯.
Facts on facts on facts 🗣️
 
Also recruits are asking for $5k to visit but they are visiting constantly…

Absolutely agree, but who is going to be in charge of deciding that Johnny getting paid $100K for a commercial for the local auto-dealership is legit fair market value?

No one wants that job and if you think fans get mad now about the decisions that NCAA makes, wait until some committee has to start evaluating whether deals are fair.

Yeah they missing a zero. Lol


What's an extra zero between friends?

Let's not forget, the 1099 reporting threshold is $600.

And there's now a question on every income tax return asking you to assert whether you have filed all the 1009s you are required to file.

Gonna be a LOT of violations to chase down. Soon.
