[QUOTE="SOWEGA Jacket, post: 875546, member: 4334"] I love the sentiment but the reality is the NCAA hasn’t used “guardrails” in years. It’s a myth that only exists in the optimist part of the brain. I wish it were true but I’m 30 years past hoping. If UGA wasn’t stripped of the 1980 Natty when everyone knew Herschel was compensated to sign then why do you hold out hope. Did you not see Cam Newton look straight into a video camera with that smile of his and say right to the NCAA’s face “as they say, it’s an ongoing investigation“. He literally straight up laughed in the face of the NCAA on national TV and what was their response? Nothing. You can see the trophy over at Auburn any time you want. I now believe the way to bring fairness is to have a pure capitalist system. Because if they try and put in “guardrails” the only teams that will abide are the same ones who have been trying to abide while they fall to the bottom tier. The top players will naturally spread out due to playing time. Bama won’t buy every 5* star QB because only 1 will play. UGA is seeing this right now. They are losing studs because they are bringing in other studs. No matter the system the sport is destined to always have a few teams who are really competitive for the Natty. It’s because good players want to play with other good players and you can’t stop players from the decision of where they play. [/QUOTE]
