Gotcha. May be some advantages and protections there. But if

this issue has legs, I forsee the players forming a players’ union like the NFL. There is just too much money involved and that will just continue to grow.

Just my 2 cents. Only a guess. I’m no lawyer or CPA. Just a retired banker who has a big picture interest. I get lost in the details. 😊

Interesting. I didn't take it as NIL focused at all -- HokieAl 08/25/2021 1:55PM

Not sure NIL is the big fear here. Compensation (Alston) is the big fear -- Femoyer Hokie 08/25/2021 2:25PM

Can you have compensation without NIL? ** -- VTHokie2000 08/25/2021 2:37PM

Might as well just pay them a salary. ** -- Femoyer Hokie 08/25/2021 3:05PM

The NIL could be a precursor to that evolution -- VTHokie2000 08/25/2021 3:11PM
