It's a toothless relic of the past, who has no credibility, and less control than anyone imagines. In fact, conferences and teams could pretty much tell them to stuff it, and continue business as usual. If the NCAA threatened to take away their bowl games, the conferences would have their own configuration. As for income from sports, the NCAA doesn't provide the income anyhow. They just suck money out of the system, to act like they're really a governing body. Their loss, in the NIL issue, made that perfectly clear.There are 5 major conferences who have good media incomes, and they will be the schools who get the most NIL money coming to their players through both, support groups, and individual representative houses that will act as individual agents for the players.Anyhow, it's here, and it's going to hurt a lot of schools. Those who end up on the plus side will be those that have alumni and boosters with deep pockets who don't mind writing out 6 to 7 figure checks to hob-*** with the athletes, and through companies like Nike, who will pour money into the super athletes. The eventual winner is always going to be the ones who put money into the hands of the athletes, and schools, not the NCAA.This article is worth the read. It tells a lot about how the NCAA is approaching the issue, and you can see that they're ready to let things pretty much take it's course, between schools, the players, and NIL.[URL unfurl="true"]https://frieserlegal.com/why-ncaa-athletes-are-not-allowed-to-wear-sponsored-apparel-in-game-but-professional-athletes-sometimes-can/[/URL]As for the real NIL money, it's not going through the collectives. It's going directly to the players, from the donor. As an example, the deal for Arch Manning, at Texas. It didn't go through the school, but came directly to him, from donors, "IF" he attended Texas, and a lot of it if he went to school elsewhere. At this point, Manning is either 3rd or 4th on the QB list, and will probably end up being red-shirted this year, if possible. It will be just an extra year, and probably another $2 to $4 mill in NIL money because he won't have to compete with others on the team for a lot the extra money.[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.burntorangenation.com/2023/3/30/23663001/longhorns-daily-news-texas-arch-mannings-nil-sec-big-12-rodney-terry-march-madness[/URL]The #1 Texas QB will more than likely be Quinn Ewers. He's also a $4 million dollar NIL man.[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.burntorangenation.com/2023/3/30/23663001/longhorns-daily-news-texas-arch-mannings-nil-sec-big-12-rodney-terry-march-madness[/URL]</blockquote>
