[QUOTE="WVUALLEN, post: 132065477, member: 1112294"] Quotes from those that know and they know it's bad for college sports. Boosters rule the roost and it's illegal. Free cheating under the guise of NIL. “You always stayed away from the boosters. Now, they are running it.” “I bet Ron Meyer is rolling in his grave,” Bowden says. “I can hear him now: ‘I told them they’d legislate this thing! We were doing it the right way!’” “We are exactly where we didn’t want to go,” MAC commissioner Jon Steinbrecher says. “That’s not name, image and likeness—that’s pay for play.” “For really good players out of high school,” McKernan says, “you’re talking $100,000 a year.” “Everybody wants to hide under the NIL umbrella. This isn’t NIL,” says Rick George, the Colorado athletic director. “As the leaders of the industry, we have to say, ‘This is not acceptable.’” “NIL,” says Corey Staniscia, the external affairs director at the NIL deal-making platform Dreamfield, “it’s become a dirty, tarnished word already.” “It’s the new arms race,” he says. “It’s gone from coaching salaries to facilities and now it’s name, image and likeness.” [/QUOTE]
