Its time the powers that be stop pretending the amateur model is still a thing. Figure out how to employ the football players and not every other sport on campus. NIL is raw capitalism at work but this business of asking donors to directly pay for players is ridiculous considering the money flowing around college football. Just allocate some dollars to paying the players a salary and lower the number non revenue of sports required to help offset the expenses. Or have donors up donations towards the non revenue sports. Donors are taxpayers and vice versa, there's a limit to how much we can donate and pay taxes to support all these sports demands.
