players will not be able to play next season and some never again. It is sad to think that money could be the underlying reason for any player to go into the portal. The NIL and the transfer portal should have never happened. There are pro sports and there were amateur sports, and pandora's box was opened up and you can't put the genie back in the bottle. Who decided all of this was good for amateur sports? Getting Congress involved was the worse thing that could have been done. Congress can't do anything right to begin with. College sports to me has become so commercialized and the people making the real money in all of this are the lawyers, agents, specialists, etc. Are taxes charged the same way as they are on professional athletes? College football is being destroyed by these decisions. I just want college athletics to be back as they once were. Paying amateur athletes is garbage and it should have never been approved. The prices for pro sports have skyrocketed to the point and family of four in many cases can't afford to go anymore to a game. College football was already expensive for the larger conferences, it wont be long before college sports prices itself out of the market and this will cause financial hardships for the colleges.
