Having him on the team is like having a Ferrari that you keep in the garage and only bring out a few times a year to impress your friends. Then you use your Toyota Camry as your daily driver. Everyone thinks it’s really cool that you have a Ferrari but it doesn’t help you get the daily work done (back and forth to work, picking up the kids, running errands, etc) and never will.
What we really need is a couple of Corvettes. Fast enough to get the job accomplished but not so pricey and rare that you leave it parked in the garage all of the time, gathering dust. If you have a Ferrari, you likely aren’t going to be able to sign (afford) very many Corvettes on your roster either. So it hurts in other ways. As mentioned, if you have the one person (the Ferrari, in this example) sucking up all of the NIL money and playing half of the time in only half of the games (literally 1/4 of the season when it’s all said and done), that kills team morale.
It will be interesting to see where the Ferrari is ten years from now. Eventually, the show ponies have to prove their worth and put in the work to win games or they are of no real value except to the hard core collectors with expendable money.
