Should semipro/college players be paid, or allowed to sell their stuff? (NIL and Revenue Sharing)

Bucklion
The SEC, or at least Georgia, is threatening to take their ball and go home. They seem more than willing to break away and play their own game. Smart’s :slappy: comments about the SEC title game being for the national championship (second :slappy:) aside, it’s a giant gamble to return to a regional sport (talk about wanting to go back to the good old days). I don’t think they quite realize that yes, they have their rabid fans of course, but the only reason they make the money they do is as many people tune in rooting against them as do to root for them. They need both to keep the kind of cash flow they seem to take for granted.

I hope he IS elite on this.
I hope he goes undefeated. Same with Penn State. Both go undefeated for not playing Ohio State.
Then, in the playoffs, Ohio State shuts them both out en route to an NC.
Show you what happens when you don't play Ohio State and then you play Ohio State.

I think this is it. Maybe Pryor spoiled me - when he tucked the ball I got the feeling that he's got it. Then he was followed by maybe the smartest running quarterback I've ever seen in college - JT Barrett. Then came Justin Fields, and he was also good at running. Then came Stroud - how many times did I know he had 10+ yards ahead of him and he just refused to run it? "Tuck it and run!" Ugh. He made up for it by still throwing for more than he would have gotten with his legs. But it was still tough.
With Sayin, I'm not as confident that he's got the wide open yards for scrambling. But there's still times when I think "just run it!" Of course, he still completed 77% - I'm sure I was wrong more often than not when I got that feeling.
Anyway, I don't want him running too much, of course, but I wonder how much defenses will play up on the edges if he scrambles a couple of times a game.
