it's exactly what Ive been saying was going to happen all along.

"Had Tua Tagovailoa been able to monetize his name, image and likeness while at Alabama, one expert told AL.com in 2020 that he could have earned “three to five million, easy” in revenue. Another expert added Tagovailoa could have made in the “low millions” but more likely six figures early in his college career."

 

Yeah- nothing to see here, no ones going to make any money off of NIL- it's not going to change the game much at all. Would be what those were wrong about this were saying. If Im a big time HS QB- Bama has to be at the very top of my list.

Lol-“If I’m a big time HS QB Bama has to be at the very top of my list” because before NIL that wasn’t a thing…

 

Groundbreaking stuff there, my good sir!

 Bama missed on both 5 star QBs last season- they took the #13 ranked 4 star.

in 2019 the both 5 star players went elsewhere. Bama got the 8th best- a 4 star.

NIL of $1,000,000 plus per year to the starting Bama QB changes the minds of many Im guessing. NIL is an absolute game changer. NU boosters need to strike so NU can make a name for itself here.

The rich get richest. I agree with Saban, "ungodly numbers"

 

This will ruin college sports IMO.

I agree with you. However the Supreme Court has spoken and the Jeanie isn't going back into the bottle.  Those who figure it out will thrive,  it's a choice. Burying ones head in the sand just puts you further behind.

I agree, NU needs to utilize it. Without question. However, it isn’t a game changer for Alabama, Ohio State, Oklahoma, and Clemson. To act like NIL suddenly elevated Alabama to a level where they can get the best players is ridiculous. They’ve been doing that for 10 years.

 Its a game changer for college football is what I meant. Those who choose to ignore it will be left in the dust by those who take advantage of it.

While I agree, it seems obvious (and the Supreme Court agrees) that college sports were built on an exploitive foundation. 

 

Undoing that takes time, and yes it is going to change the sport that we love, but at the same time these kids deserve what they get.

Saban saying someone making $1,000,000 is making "ungodly numbers" is pure gold.
