[QUOTE="SOWEGA Jacket, post: 807324, member: 4334"] I hear you guys but I just think this belief that schools like Bama or UGA are the only big money schools because of current ranking and facilities isn‘t true. It’s all based on a system for decades that rewarded cheaters. Those schools were willing to exploit a system by cheating and the NCAA allowed them. The new system of paying players takes away their #1 advantage that allowed them to get all the top players - which is to pay them. Look how quickly Ole Miss got in the top 10 when they decided to go all in on paying players. It was short lived because the traditional cheaters had the NCAA bust them, but if little Oxford, MS can buy their way into the top ten what do you think much bigger/richer schools can do? And of course those cheaters have all the candy today like facilities, etc because they’ve been ranked forever due to blatant cheating. Those days are numbered now that the cheating will be allowed by everyone. If you think the bagmen of today are in the same league as the bagmen of tomorrow you are crazy. A guy like T. Boone Pickens (I know he died) has more bagmen at his disposal than Bama/UGA combined. The paying of players will unleash decades of pent up frustration and money by schools like ND, Stanford, and others none of us even fathom right now. Think what Oregon will be able to do. Now that alum know they won’t be competing in an unfair market it’s gonna be crazy. Think of schools who have been grinding for decades selling their product only to have 10 grand of under the table money turn a player towards the SEC. I’m not saying GT will be a major player but at least for the first time in my life we’ll at least know where we stand and won’t have to wonder why player X went to UCF or Vandy over GT. [/QUOTE]
