[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 877701, member: 265"] Eggackley. The assumption behind all of this ai that the NIL deals will automatically load up some schools with all the talent. Would that all of human life were that predictable. My guess is that schools that don't look like perenial contenders will turn out to be just that due to a combination of good coaching and the serendipity of talent. An example, you say. Here you go: Russel Wilson. Russel was a two star recruit with Rivals and wasn't even listed by 247. I mean really: here's a guy that's 5'11", 215 and played for a small private school in Virginia. What program that is looking to "prepare players for the NFL" would touch him? And, of course, he turned out to be the best college QB in recent football history. Indeed, his ratings after his senior year were the highest ever recorded by the quantitative football sites. My guess: NIL wouldn't even have been mentioned during his recruiting. Is all the NIL hoopla important and likely to have bad effects on the rest of college football? Yes. Does it mean that the USCs of thew world will completely dominate (I mean more then they already do) college football? I doubt it, but it's too early to tell. And, yes, I'm not against a "superconference"; let the big schools turn pro and let the rest of us get back to a more realistic version of college football. [/QUOTE]
