considered Amateur now? I know that football, basketball and baseball players are now being payed to play for schools. Are golfers, swimmers, track, tennis volleyball, rifleteam and whatever else players now paid as well? I read that $20 million is going to players of sports at schools now - but is that just from the college athletics budget? Isn't NIL actually unlimited? This seems to be getting more confusing by the moment - lol!
I now see coaches are being told to donate back to NIL by some schools. Then I see some say coaches can not give to NI, but away around that is that coaches donate to other University programs and then the university matches that gift with money to NIL and players. Collegiate sports is not amateur now. - or is it?
I grew up loving the college sports and I didn't like professional football or basketball. Maybe that was because I was from rural Kentucky and we had no professional team? I'm just old and out of touch now - lol! I have supported major league baseball by buying tickets - but never have and probably never will pay to see a professional football or basketball game - but I know that's just me.
Go Big Blue!
