Alabama coach Nick Saban says sophomore quarterback Bryce Young is nearing $1M in endorsement deals since the NCAA allowed athletes to profit off their name, image and likeness. Young is the presumptive favorite to be named the Crimson Tide's starter.

College football, and college sports in general, are really going to be screwed up. I hope we have a football season to remember, because college football & basketball may become unwatchable soon.

I think it will be nuts in the short term. This is new and shiny. When "investors " feel like they aren't getting enough bang for their buck it will settle down a lot.

It will cause alot of dissension among teammates in my opinion

I'm confused on this crap. Can Penix rip his helmet off after a TD to show off an Upland head band, for example?

If it's worth a 15yd penalty

It is confusing. With IU wearing Addidas gear, what if Penix gets a Nike deal?

Or maybe wears FootJoys . . .

. . . or is Addidas free to get Penix to endorse its headband?

My head hurts.

Please . . . no copper-infused, socks headbands gloves, knee supports or jocks. . .

I have a strong feeling I will find more things I dislike about INL than things I like.

I read something that indicated they can’t do anything that interfere with team endorsements. So no. Not at this point.

You mean you think we might already be overrun with advertising intrusions and don't need any more?

That's unAmerican.

Can Adidas sponsor him?

Just so.

Penix and the OL turn around and face the stands after a TD. In order, their headbands read - Celebrate. At. Upland. After. We. POTFB.

You own stock in Upland or something? You're being obstinate . . . like only a Univee can be.

Make it Irish Lion, then. But we'll need to get the TE involved.

At least I can spell Adidas . . . .

You didn't answer the question . . .

. . . and I agree, we've got to get the TE involved.

Who is the TE this year anyway?

I've invested money there the last four times I've been in Bloomington.

That's it for free investment advice . . .

I bet I know where your investment paid off . . .

. . . BTW, that's not an investment, it's a rental.

People - let’s say bagmen in the SEC - were gaming the system when there was exactly no “bang” other than their preferred franchise winning games and the thrill of skirting the NCAA.

There are many more motivators in life than the simple and crude assessment of the income statement.

Not sure. I just know it’s a mess.

Hmmmmm . . . would this money help kids decide not to go pro early? Might be that this could be a separator for the big money programs . . . their top players stay in school longer, which could steer top level talent - who want to play right away - to next tier down programs.

I'm not sure how this is going to play out . . . probably the rich get richer.

I’m not sure if this is the greatest of ideas/suggestions but maybe the NCAA or each college should require the “student/athlete” to pick up the cost of his scholarship if he signs for X amount of dollars. It’s not like the Alabama QB wouldn’t be able to pay his way if he going to make $1M for his time.

Will America's No. 1 QB recruit Quinn Ewers give up 7-figure NIL offers for one more season of Texas high school football?

Ewers has emerged as such a precocious and recognizable star that he has the potential to earn nearly a million dollars in the next year by profiting off his Name Image and Likeness.
