Cincinnati Sues QB Brendan Sorsby to Enforce NIL Agreement

That just changed the source of the money, my guy. Alabama also ALMOST got the death penalty in 2002 (main event wasn't as egregious as SMU's, but the sum of the Tide's many smaller violations almost did them in). The fact remains that money was always in college sports, and it always will be. I mean, we've all heard the old saying that the only basketball team with a higher payroll than the UCLA Bruins in the early 70s was the LA Lakers.

The only way to get money out of college sports is for people to stop caring at all. Don't go to games, don't watch them on TV, don't buy merchandise, don't support it in any way. If everyone did that, there would be no incentive. It would just be a bunch of rascals rasslin' in a vacant field like Bob Yale and Rusty Princeton intended.

I'm at that point right now.
Good post, very well thought through.

It was Eli Yale. Eli is in the Yale school/fight song.

"Elihu Yale
(1649–1721) was a British-American merchant, colonial administrator, and the primary benefactor for whom Yale University is named.
