New NIL commission coming?

There are so many terrible, horrible things being flatly stated as truths in this thread that I hardly know where to begin.

I will simply add that if you think that the pre-NIL system, in which all the power, wealth, and influence of a multi-billion dollar industry was concentrated in the hands of a few dozen athletic directors and mega donors was better, there isn’t much point to a debate. If you feel they “earned” that right and “deserved” that money and that their interest somehow constituted a legitimate business enterprise benefiting society, but athletes on a college team being paid represents a systemic societal failure as they have not “earned” anything but are taking an “entitlement,” we have no common ground to stand on. We have completely different definitions of corruption and morality.
If you feel that paying millions of dollars to an 18-year old just because he is very good at throwing a football is justified, then we have completely different definitions of corruption and morality.

Matt Fitz

It’s not funny when you go back (for really no good reason) and try to twist someone’s post. My initial post was to share how disappointing it’s been to see him fall over the last 18 months. I watched Fitz’ entire round yesterday. So glad to see him playing well. If you can’t understand that, then ok.

The post didn’t age well. That’s all I said. And it didn’t. Not sure why you’re so defensive. 🤷‍♂️
