I know the purpose was never parity, but that doesn't mean in my fantasy world it could at least not make worse what has always been bad about college athletics. I agree it is being successful in putting money in the hands of the young people, yet there are other considerations. If the schools aren't giving any of their own revenues to the NIL, then nothing we pay for seats or gear or such is helping the NIL. It's just all kinds of imperfect, we must agree.
It is indeed very imperfect. Although I'm a bit of an optimist. The big schools were always paying their players, they just hid it. Now that it's out in the open it's business as usual for them but a school like Cal now no longer has the whole "oh we can't do that" disadvantage.
