[QUOTE="Sangria Wine, post: 3118532, member: 227"] All deals that make money and move you on to the next deal that makes you more money are good. I think it’s obvious that if you have two potential sales of assets for instance, and one sale allows better tax implications you pick it…but, having tax consequences means you’ve made money on the deal. And no deal is the last deal unless you die or quit. The object is to make money and move to the next deal. I stand by the comment. These kids taking money for one NIL deal doesn’t make the next deal get eliminated. If ZE goes to Ole Miss and starts popping off 200 yard games he will get more than $500k/year. The argument that these kids are worse off for having some great coin come their way is dumb. There’s plenty of envy among fans in some cases when they learn that an “unproven 18 year old” is about to pull down more money than they make. So be it. I don’t like what’s about to happen because of all this NIL stuff, but damn sure can’t say the kids who are getting paid are automatically bad guys for shopping their services and making the best deal they can…exactly like every person in the world tries to do in their own careers/businesses. College football is now pro football, just a different league than the NFL…but pro football for sure. With no salary caps, no real rules, no oversight from a central governing body. It’s the Wild Wild West and before it’s all over Texas and Texas A&M are going to both have top 5 talent every year because they have the most money from the most willing participants in playing this game. They practically perfected it back when it was under the table money. Aggies drop $30 million on this years class and it doesn’t even register to the coffers. Welcome to the new era of college football. Don’t hate the players, hate the game. [/QUOTE]
