I think a salary cap of sorts being implemented across CFB will help out mid-tier programs like GT the most. This is what the revenue sharing deal helps establish, but NIL boosters paying money is still the Wild West.

If we can get the investment and cash to match a salary cap each year, it comes down to efficiency of spreading out the cash rather than who has unlimited piles of cash like the $EC.

based on history, this is probably why it won't happen unfortunately. As the adage says, the more things change, the more they stay the same. Or the Who put it thusly - meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

On the other hand, the salary cap used to be 0 but teams paid under the table. So history shows us a salary cap will only limit those that don't cheat.

Doesn’t this just devolve back into midnight duffel bag drops on front porches by the factories for whatever they need over the cap?

Lawyers would just file a lawsuit. NCAA tried to limit it to one transfer without sitting but had to sit out a year on the next. UNC filed a lawsuit for Tes Walker and he played. It was at least his 3rd school and maybe his 4th. UNC claimed it was affecting his mental health. LOL.
The whole thing is now just a money grab. Maybe Height didn't want to play in a bowl game but likely shopping for money. Could be some tampering but no way to prove or enforce. Sorry he is leaving. Good player.

Filing a lawsuit is a lot different than winning a lawsuit

If you don’t change majors it’s easier to get GT transfer credits to count toward degree requirements at most other schools than the other way around.

It is not always about whether the credits will transfer, but rather whether they will count towards the degree at the new school. I doubt they are keeping the same majors. Especially if they are transferring from Tech.
