Without a Collective Bargaining Agreement I don’t see how it gets any better. Problem with that is the players are going all around to different conferences and levels within college football. They only have to remain subject to the CBA for two years? I am not an expert but I think a lawyer would have problems with any contract.
Which is why some super conferences deal needs to be in place. But frankly any school can sign kids to NIL so it doesn’t solve the problem completely.
College football is dying. Which maybe it isn’t a terrible thing because it has always been based on a pretty unfair system.
