Good News: Last Year

Nope. It's a cancer.

What good did paying Ware do? He isn't here. They didn't make the tourney. And no one got a return on NIL investment.

NIL should be performance based. What they are doing now is giving ice cream to the kid who promises to clean his room after he eats it.

I think that’s more of a comment on capitalism as a whole.
 
Roughly 2/3rds of the RSCI top 20 recruits are in the NBA 5 years later.

That drops to about 1/5th for to 21-50 ranked players, then is marginal from 51-100.

Point being, just avoid paying for automatic 1 and done players like Harper and Bailey unless it will make your team a major contender. There's no reason for NIL to pay for poor return. Most of the money should be performance based. Give them a signing bonus based on their HS ranking, but that should be all. The rest comes after you go 11-1 and make it to the college football playoffs (oops, sorry Kel'el Ware, you lose), and that should be a team distribution anyway.
The whole thing stinks.
I can’t think of anyone less suitable for overseeing a meritocracy than Woodson. There is no better example of receiving significant unearned compensation than the man himself.
