LOL.

Missouri Gov. Mike Parson signed House Bill 417 into law on Thursday night. The amended NIL legislation is one of the most advantageous in the country. It prevents the NCAA or athletic conferences from entertaining a complaint, opening an investigation or taking any other adverse action against an institution or its employees for engaging in protected NIL activities.

Basically tells the NCAA to f*ck off as long as NIL activities don't violate state law. New York and Texas have similar laws. Why do we need the NCAA again?

Doesn't matter. NCAA ain't doin' **** no more.

People who are going to have fun with this are the media types. They're the ones who will dig to expose abuses, like a kid who gets $100k for a practice-worn jockstrap.

I simply thought (because I’m simple 😞) that the ncaa might fight it as a means of survival.

They're getting desperate....good article linked below:


Federal bill has almost zero chance of happening IMO. Would love to see the NCAA make good on it's threat to not invite schools in violation of NCAA policy to their tournaments. Response would be:

Where at in Avalon? And when???
Thinking about attending, nitt?
Bring the checkbook…..lots of zeros 🧐

“From 6-8 p.m., Franklin will meet with guests for a “NIL discussion” alongside Penn State lettermen. NIL donations are priced at $2,000 for individuals and $3,000 for couples to attend the first two hours. From 8-10 p.m., the event is set to turn into an “after party” in which current players will also be in attendance. “

Tickets for the entire four-hour event, also featuring autographs, food, drink, and music, are priced at $5,000 for two. Separate, sponsor-level opportunities are also available for the event at $10,000, $15,000, and $20,000. Those giving levels include a picture with Franklin and the Rose Bowl trophy.”

I cannot think of anything less exciting than mingling with football coaches and college football players. I do think it could be a cool event for those who do like to do those things though and hope a lot of money is raised. This, however, is not sustainable. I can’t see fans lining up to drop a decent sized chunk of money every year for this. Maybe I’m wrong.

Suppose they raise a considerable amount of money. On what basis is it distributed?

They could always do the James Franklin golf open like Joe did. I played in that a few times.
