“The issue is, when you create those [collectives] for people, are you establishing a pay-for-play type of environment that can be used in recruiting?

So now, all the sudden, guys are not going to school where they can create the most value for their future. Guys are going to school where they can make the most money. I don’t think that is even the best thing for the player…

I think name, image and likeness is good for players. The whole concept of collectives is what has created this environment that we are in, and I’m not sure that anybody really had the insight or the vision to see that was going to happen.”


I have bad news for you, Nick. You may not have seen it, but all of us did. Convince me that it's OK that us message board warriors saw it, but you and everybody on your staff had no clue.
