I think it’s about the “right” kind of money…
It’s one thing to have a big athletic budget and waterfalls in the locker rooms. It’s another thing to have money in the wallets of players.
The NIL is going to shift the balance to the rich even more. Add that to a network of “fans” with deep pockets like the SEC football schools have and kids will get paid. They’ve been doing it better than anyone else in the country for years.
Football is king in the SEC. It’s all that matters to them. Whatever it takes. It’s a culture, borderline religion. It’s important to them and it shows. They win. Period. I hate it, sure many others hate it, but it’s a culture. It’s taken 100 plus years to create. Not going to change any time soon.
Pom poms and BAMA bangs forever! I’ll pass.
