Let's be honest here, the "student" and "amateur" part have been dead at the highest levels for a long time, but now the veil is completely off and the rest have to play by the same rules.
Again, they want to be paid, fine. The NCAA is now a professional sports league. That means taxes, salary caps, and signing players to contracts. Texass u wants one of our players, then trade for them. Then we'll see how long before those douchebag programs want to go back to the old ways.
You are right. I sense that you will start to see the best G5 head coaches leave to become assistants at the richer programs. The money and greed of the coaches and schools are to blame for this. I do not blame the networks. It is ridiculous for coaches to be paid millions of dollars and same for AD’s when the players can’t pay their bills.
I fear our programs as we know and knew them to be are basically over. We are North Texas State Junior College now.
