I know a lot of us have been saying this. But situations like this will have the NFL involved very soon.

Does anyone know the real amount of cash being paid out for these NIL deals?
Some of these valuations sound kind of sketchy!

Sheduer made a quoted $5.3mil in back to back years. Supposedly Ewers was offered $6mil to skip 2025 draft. Cade is making a stated $2.5mil and Sanders is making $2.7mil. All of these amounts are not what college sports were built around, and while I think players making some money off of things like jersey sales and autographs like NIL was intended, the pay for play has gone beyond the intended results and hurts HS kids, smaller schools, olympic sports, etc.

Because HS kids see these $$ numbers and the posted valuations created by ON3 which are not necessarily accurate. So these kids start chasing money instead of what is always best for their future. 95% of HS kids will never make $$ in football beyond college, so they chase money instead of education, or actually chase money instead of a quality coaching staff that may develop them into a future pro player.
Clemson lost at least 6 recruits this year, how much more is a 3-4* recruit going to make their freshman season over what Clemson would pay? $20k, 40k? Maybe, not talking about 5* players because they are not the norm. So HS recruit goes to a school with lesser staff, or lesser facilities, lesser education, and not get developed for future or have an education of lesser value for $20-40k?
And I guess I was thinking Portal issues at the same time where recruits get no D1 offers because schools dill needs with portal guys therefore hurting more HS recruits.

Money is best for their future.

What potentially lesser recruits do at the competition are not out concern.
If recruits don't get D1 offers, then good for the TP guys that beat them out. It's a competitive world. They means winners and losers. That goes for the individual athletes as well as for the teams.
The best recruits are still going to get picked up and play. Deion Sanders reportedly only took 7 recruits in 2024. He said that all of them were good enough to start as freshmen. Ditto for Ohio State's freshman reliever Smith4. Those are examples of the freallm riding to the top no matter the shadow of the container.

I know he is an exceptional, but it is an example. Brock Purdy. 2022-2025 Rookie. Brock Purdy signed a 4 year , $3,737,008 contract with the San Francisco 49ers, including $77,008 signing bonus, $77,008 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $934,252. In 2025, Purdy will earn a base salary of $1,100,000, while carrying a cap hit of $1,119,252 and a dead cap value of $19,252.

They get a free minor league, as they always have. College guys will only have 5 years unless they get a medical redshirt. To get the elite ones, all the NFL has to do is wait.

1st and 2nd round impact players will still move on early. The NFL is fine with the mid round and lesser projects staying and developing until their eligibility is used up. Then they will offer them mid round $ and UDFL contracts. In the NFL you get paid for what you contribute on the field. Some actually have NIL market value and get paid for endorsements. That won’t change.

If 30+ billionaires would like to keep their costs in check I’m guessing they might have some sway in the legal, legislative and executive branches.

They get three extra years of the athletes getting developed at someone else's expense. They would be crazy to change that.
