[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 4118391, member: 26737"] NIL is something where the colleges and NCAA had no choice--that was forced on them by the Federal courts. And really, that was the right call by the Court; if anyone is going to profit off an athlete's name, image, or likeness, it should be the athlete. The transfer portal, though, that was a 100% self-inflicted injury. That did not have to happen, and it was a terrible move for college sports. What better way to send the message that your word means nothing than to create a system where backing out of your commitment carries no penalty at all. Yeah, there were a few times when petty schools (I'm looking at you, Texas Tech) caused problems for players for no good reason, but at least causing a player to sit out for a year reinforced the idea that committing to something means something. Now going back on your commitment is just like changing your mind about the clothes you're going to wear today... [/QUOTE]
