Message: [QUOTE="McLovin, post: 4311613, member: 9450"] Right. But how? If politicians can use dark money to fund campaigns or the mob / cartels can set-up businesses to launder money, how is the NCAA going to stop it from influencing athletes? There is going to be an algorithm that will determine what a player could get paid, based on skills / ranking, school and/or conference. If this doesn't already exist, it will within 24 months. Kids will know what their NIL should be. Then they will just see what schools have been able to fulfill those in the past. And pick those. Whether the money is coming from the car dealership down the road who is "just a huge fan of the staring PG" or an open booster collective, the money is coming from the same source. I guess I think it's better to be open about the new reality than pretend to regulate it (which they have never done before for top programs anyways)... [/QUOTE]
