saw this the other day, this stuff is out of hand.

These NIL Agents are working the system that has evolved. Coaches, schools, and donors have embraced NIL, to win at all costs. NIL created a market for "agents" to identify talent with value and find schools willing to invest because rules do not exist. Make calls, find the bag, hype the bag to the player, player transfers, make money. Some of the coaches complaining simply aren't sincere in their complaints, they just realize they don't have enough people to step up to fill bags and now they are upset.

90% of these agents dont have Kids best interest in mind. Quick payday and move on. They dont care if kid makes wrong decision long term.

The agents are just money grubbing grifters....and 77 thinks coaches are insincere with their complaints. Really?

Yes, I do think some are insincere. It is hard for me to believe the P4 coaches whining are sincere. Give these P4 coaches more bag money to hand out and see how many are still complaining.

If you're going to blame the agents then you also have to blame the coaches and universities who are also active participants. My point is there is plenty of blame to go around. I think a lot of people quit caring about a kid making a wrong decision in the era of NIL and it's simply win at all costs.

I agree with both posters here. These NIL agents are certainly grifters. The sentiment coming from some of the coaches (especially the P4 ones like 77) stated is laughable. I mean Brian Kelly complaining about it all being about the money? Really guy? Like we all forgot about the $5-6 million pay bump you got to leave Notre Dame?

I get your point. I feel the lack of care and win at all cost is primarily at the P4 level and it completely ____s us at the G5 level.

He's the head coach for Colorado State. He's just like us. Trying to keep his players from being raided by P4 programs.
