[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1035375, member: 17953"] Thirteen and Weeds; You both point out interesting perspectives on the game, and where it's heading. I agree, colleges have always been the training ground for the big time, like a minor league, and I don't think that specifically changes. But, I do think the time is coming when you will see interaction between the NFL and college football. But, I have my own perspective on how that might happen. Here's what I see. I see the time coming when every NFL team is asked to contribute $5 mill (an arbitrary figure, put whatever you want in here) into a fund that's used as NIL money for colleges. That's 32 teams, so we're talking $160 mill total. In the process of this happening, I see the 5 major conferences slipping away from the rest, forming their own alliance, with their own media branding. At this point, I believe there's around 65 schools in these 5 conferences. I see them getting an equal split among all of them, from the NFL, for about $2.4 mill each. This money would be earmarked as developmental money given out as NIL money, across the board, for a given number of players on each team. Let's say it's given to a total of 60 scholarship players at a figure of $40k each. The fact is, if the NIL program keeps growing, the time will come where teams will turn the player's agreements to play football into contracts as much as scholarhips, that require them to fill their obligations under it's terms, and be ineligible to play elsewhere, including opting into the portal, or skipping to the NFL prior to fulfilling their contract. It's going to end up regimented like real life, because in the real world, contracts can be the way you earn money, if the person employing you makes it mandatory. If you want the job, you sign on the dotted line. [/QUOTE]
