The future of college baseball

It does; but the only publicized case of extensive NIL programs that I have seen so far for non-headcount sports is for Arkansas Softball.

I know an early enrolled freshman QB at LSU who is driving a fully loaded Raptor.

I’m sure the Ark St one you mention got lots of publicity because every player got something. While there might not be much across the board NIL, I’m sure that pretty much all of the major schools have NIL lined up for players that is probably much more than scholarship.

Not Arkansas State; the University of Arkansas. Not football or basketball, but softball, a sport with 12 total scholarsnips for 27 players. I have not heard of NIL deals anwhere else for a "minor" sport that are anyehere close to this.

Hell no. This is devastating. It means the P5 schools will be able to scoop up more athletes for themselves.

Not true, its all open-straw recruiting.

It doesn’t matter if its
(a) Portal
(b) NIL
(c) Full Scholarships

Every time they suck someone new in one end of the straw, they spit some high potential athlete out the other end.

The net result is never ending recruiting but overall zero change.

Give and Receive?

Maggard was privy and ahead of all of us.

We’re a football / baseball school. Good times ahead.

The SBC is obviously ahead of all this as well. SBC will be the top G5 in football and a P5 baseball conference.

I think we land on our feet. We will still have one of the top college ballparks in the south, rabid fan support and a strong athletic department. We fixed the video steaming dropped ball. We still need to fix concessions though.

Imagine getting more from NIL than a former number one overall pick may have gotten for his entire nfl career, yay refineryville.

How many softball teams even have 27 parking spaces for players?

You beat me to it. I almost couldn’t make it through that article. It’s too depressing. This is the state of college athletics. At least in the big sports. How can anyone associated with college athletics and a sliver integrity read that and not see an issue? Even with the loose ncaa guidelines on nil.
