Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 4365534, member: 12088"] The question of who [B]deserves[/B] what seems too vague to help much. This is a property rights case, and the NCAA has illegitimately "converted" an asset that belongs only to the players for DECADES. This injustice should have been corrected long ago. The question whether it is good for this or that college sport is intriguing. But however we decide this is irrelevant to the underlying property rights issue. It may produce enormous differences between teams and conferences based solely on which markets have better NIL possibilities. This seems entirely likely. But this too is a problem of the NCAA's making, not the players. So, who will get more NIL money? It's going to be the ones who get more exposure in their market, as long as they have some charisma. This will track the better players for the most part, but not entirely. The Cavinder twins are an interesting case for this. They developed huge followings even though they were in a minor market, got little national exposure, and are not top tier bb talents. What they did have was a good deal of social media savvy. I say more power to them. This is an asset just like all the others. They [B]deserve[/B] whatever they can make from it. [/QUOTE]
