Too many on scholarship


Feb 2, 2023, 8:05 PM

It seems to me that you take 3 off of scholarship and give them a NIL deal that will pay the amount of the tuition, bord, etc. From what I can tell so far, NIL is for skating around the rules and doing what you want with compensating players. Am I oversimplifying things?
It can't be breaking the rules, because so far, I haven't seen any enforcement.

Isn’t Dabo an investor in a venture called Walk-on’s ? Seems an easy deal to be made there.

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, is using NIL money to pay tuition.***

And that is a fundamental flaw in NIL. Just like some grants and scholarships are income based, there should be a rule that if a player is making six or seven figures/year they should forfeit their scholarship.

Exactly. I've thought this from the beginning.

Pay the players? Fine. But instead of paying for everything and more for them, pay them and let them learn financial management skills as part of their education.

The NIL is broken. Can't keep this mess up much longer.

If you think our Congress will take away the right of NIL, I have beachfront property for you in Kansas.

Sometimes, conversations can happen in the real world that don't make it to the internet. Shocking, I know, but not everyone lives and breathes on Tigernet.

I didn't mean pay their, I meant give them enough NIL to be able to pay their own tuition.

And if they choose to spend the money on something else are they out of school?

The entire BYU team is paid enough to pay tuition

If my memory serves me correctly, a Brigham Young alumnus paid for over 100 football players scholarships.
