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

No offense but this narrative is so tired. Do you not think that OSU, Bama, Oregon, etc didnt pay kids before? I saw this same retort when people saw this same statement. Its seems like fans who sound like yourself were more content when players just got paid by the dumpster of the Piggly wiggly or IGA. Theres a reason why Saban, Smart, Meyer, Carroll, etc were able to consolidate so much talent annually. And it wasn't because they wanted to matriculate from the prestigious universities.NIL has ruined college football as we knew it. Lots of players dont come because they want to be a "Buckeye" but because we offer a NIL or a larger NIL. It's hard for me to regard them as such when they are not here for the "team"
Just look at how many players left this year. That's disgraceful.
The OSU is buying and selling players just like the pro's do.
So sad. It seems most fans cheer more for certain players than for my beloved Buckeye's.
GO BUCK!
The Program, Blue Chips, told fictional stories while we all watched the Pony Excess 30 for 30(or like myself, read the book too).
The NCAA chose to make billions from free labor until they couldn't any longer due to their greed. OSU will always be OSU to me. And I'll still love rooting for them, because I know they can and will pivot with the times. Its funny how if OSU had won it all this year, your love for CFB wouldn't have waned...

Good call, honestly.
