I learned fast from him that soccer was burdened with these problems, that there were ways to work around it, but it really required entrepreneurial efforts to do so.
He says a lot of yes.
It's true.
I've had failures.
He's had failures because you say yes and you try things and that's a little beyond your capacity or things didn't work out, but it's worth it.
I'm absolutely pro-athlete, pro-amateur athlete.
But I look at what's happening right now, and you start with football.
The SEC and the Big Ten, they're really doing what we've done in society, which is they're going to be able to afford to spend $2 million on a cornerback, and they're just going to marginalize the other conferences and smaller colleges.
We're going to have great football from those two conferences, but I worry that the margins are going to get so great that it's really going to be the haves and the have-nots.
I do hope, I've only thought this through, I would expect that at some point the NCAA or the conference...
is get together and figure out how to distribute NIL money with some caps that allow for those smaller universities to participate too.
I love the idea that great athletes come out of small colleges and I worry that NIL is going to make that harder and harder to come to pass.
We're still going to have to deal with a lot of this extreme NIL numbers before it settles in.
I hope they do adjust it for the reasons I said.
Soccer's not the same.
We offer NIL money to the kids that graduate from AccessU because through our sponsors, Allstate and Toyota, we're able to give them certain travel stipends.
We give a card to buy books and stuff like that.
It's not like they're endorsing a brand in the same way.
That money is small change compared to what the NCAA football players can get.
That's why it's going to take a while.
