Dept. of Education: Title IX applies to athlete pay

The direct payment plans that many major college athletic departments are making for athletes would violate Title IX law, according to a Department of Education memo.

NIL has opened a ridiculous can of worms. Honestly, I hope this is the beginning of the end of college sports. Insanity rules the world.
 
The argument for NIL when players and others who stand to profit from it started braying is that it would compensate them for use of their "name, image, likeness" for jersey sales, their likeness in video games, etc. That sounds reasonable that one should get a cut of profits being generated directly by their "name, image or likeness". Instead it has turned into just a direct-pay mercenary program. Can anyone demonstrate that Dontavious, Vonzella or Shaquan who are going to be paid $5 million generated that much with their NIL? The answer is doubtless "NO" for 90% or more.
 
Decent list but I’d put Klubnick and Beck above Lagway, Allar, and the two SEC non-Whites. Also, another Coach Slime hype-job sneaking in at #10. There are countless better QBs.

Much better list!

Leavitt has the right attitude, despite until this day I'd always prefer him handing off the ball (or throwing a screen or short wheel route).

Pavia had to SUE the NCAA just to get this upcoming extra year since he couldn't get any non-JUCO interest out of high school. Imagine if he impresses so much that he gets drafted... what would that mean? Even a UFDA contract or making a practive squad would seemed an unfathomable accomplishment for him just two years ago on this date.

I'm interested to see what Mendoza does in the Indiana offense - he has some creative highlights!
 
sounds like the plaintiff went forward with the addition of Skatteboo after Skatteboo became nationally known...

He's likely counting on Cam being drafted, getting a nice rookie contract and actually getting an opportunity to start in the NFL. Let's hope his optimism turns out to be warranted. The more cynical types would say he clearly has no idea how the Caste System works, particularly for White running backs.

The qb talent is atrocious if that’s really the top ten. Cade, Jackson, Drew, Sam, Diego, and Arch should represent well but Beck is soft and weak. Garret may improve.

Just being white doesn’t make a player any better or any worse...it hard to imagine anyone being that ignorant these days. As I said, many of those listed are solid but there doesn’t seem to be one I’d take with the first pick although Arch Manning will get every opportunity if he plays well. The Manning name carries well earned clout.

Drew has a high ceiling as does Sam. Jackson is an exceptional athlete as is Cade, so there are plenty to have high hopes in but as of now…there aren’t any QBs to build a team around with the top pick. Unlike years past with Joe B etc etc however, there is still time to make the next step.

Atrocious…ok, that’s definitely not the best choice of adjective so more like cautiously optimistic, albeit a bit underwhelming at this point.

I saw a mock with Manning, Nussmeier, and Allar all in the top ten next year. I would argue this is one of the better QB classes in some time.

You’re basing your opinion on a mock draft from last year. Is that your argument ? There countless yocals out there with mock drafts So that’s not much of an argument. However the three you mentioned do have high ceilings as I mentioned with Manning clearly being capable of the top overall pick.

I hope this class will represent well and I’m cautiously optimistic for sure. This class does have 5-8 that could very easily be drafted and develop into NFL starters which would be great!
