[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 859214, member: 4572"] I just think at some point this has to settle down when people start realizing these massive investments they’re making provide very little in return. I mean, if you have the expendable funds to hand out tens and hundreds of thousands, or even millions of dollars at a time you have to be pretty smart right? There’s no way these people continue to shell out massive dollars for not only players, but also for coaches, [I][B]and [/B][/I]facilities. At what point do these people look in the mirror and ask themselves wtf they’re doing with their money. Is it when they get burned by some kid taking their money and running to the next school? Or when whatever 5-star QB they shelled out for gets hurt and never plays a down? Maybe when their big name coach benches their big money player for discipline issues? I mean, they’re basically playing a weird pro sports league where the fans are directly paying the players. That’s not a system that can work long term IMO, simply because there’s too many conflicts of interest possible. I think maybe 4-5 years of this wild stuff and then it’ll either blow up or level out. I think the next generation of coaching changes will probably lead to some massive changes in the NIL system. Once Bama has to replace Saban, that will create massive implications across the sport.
