Addison leaving Pitt

NIL is going to be the quick death of college sports. This and that guy at Miami who threatened to enter the portal if he didn’t get a new NIL deal prove it.

I think it is time to subdivide college sports again. Have 12-32 team of NIL schools and have the rest go back to the non-NIL rules. There really is no way even all the P5 schools can survive NIL influence. Frankly I would rather see GT in the non-NIL group even if that means ending the series with UGA.

It’s just about killed them already for me. I’m the least interested I’ve ever been.

Yeah. With this and Tech sucking, I could not really care less about college sports right now.

Same. I used to count down the days to CFB during the summer. Now I genuinely could not care less, knowing that if we do manage to attract talent or find a diamond in the rough, he’ll just be lured away by NIL offers.

The only reason these top athletes are participating in college football is that it is a way to display their talent for the NFL. This guy is doing what will be the next step for him. He is practicing something he will do as a pro. One day as a pro he will be a free agent and will play one group against another to get the most money for his talent. It is America free enterprise at its best.
 
Addison is a guy that should have been able to turn pro anyway; would have been a first round pick.
 
Allowing NIL coupled with the instant eligibility transfer is the dumbest ööööing öööö ever. Now kids openly demand more money in order to go to and or stay at a school. Supposedly this wasn’t going to directly impact recruitment… lolz. NCAA needs to sack up and start putting programs on probation when it’s brazen like this.

College baseball man. Tech looking to clinch the series at home against #3 Miami on campus at 4pm today.

The problem is that the death of football may lead to the death of all college sports at least at the revenue sharing level. It will just be a battle of the donors.

Sure, and there should be a minor league for them to do that without the facade of being students. I'm personally not interested in that minor league, I'll just watch the NFL or USFL instead. There is certainly no reason to pull 100+ college teams into that circus.
