I guess I’m not seeing the doom and gloom.   Teams will have the same 20.5 million to pay the entire sports program.  Divide it up as they so please. And the NIL will be policed better (allegedly) meaning a kid can’t go to Alabama or Texas and sign a 4 million dollar NIL deal unless his market is actually that value, but then any team could sign him to that same NIL deal.   Texas is supposedly paying their team 30-45 million this year.  How is anyone supposed to keep up with that?

No, it’s not exactly a salary cap.  But if it’s policed as they say it is, there will be more parity than ever.  It will equal the playing field.

Doesn’t mean the Watsons of the world still won’t jump ship to go play with the big boys in the SEC.  But Syracuse would be able to pay the exact same money as Texas. Maybe even more. Because Texas has to pay the entire team and Watson may be one of Syracuses highest paid player.  Is the 15th best player going to stay at a Texas when they could be the top paid player at a Syracuse or a Georgia tech, etc?  Some might, but others won’t.
