Coach Gilmore's Parting Words

[ZoomZoom]

Robe, Berry, Gilmore. Three solid men where baseball wasn’t the top priority. All the more reason I see Deggs staying here long term. He can be the next man up for the SBC.

There was no cap for over 150 years and you need to divide those salaries over 10 years, college nil cant even guarentee you one full season

There was no cap. They instituted one because a few teams were buying all the players. Doesn’t guarantee success, but it certainly helps.

And those salaries listed are for THIS season. Not divided over 10 years. Some teams over $300 million. Others under $85 mil

And that’s a 30 team league where all of the owners are billionaires.

College has 300 schools and about 40 “billionaires” competing with 200 teams on welfare.

as far as ohtani: Instead of receiving $70 million per year for the next 10 seasons, All-Star hitter and pitcher will reportedly only collect $2 million annually over that span, according to The Athletic. Starting in 2034 — when he will be 39 years old — and going until 2043, Ohtani will receive $68 million per year.Dec 12, 2023

Also profits and losses can be found for most pro teams, not every pro teams spends every penny of revenue each year the way the colleges do (and most more)

You are hard to follow.
It sounds like you are in favor of unlimited nil $; and that’s the best path to a fair playing field in college athletics

the Supreme Court has already ruled that players rights to earn NIL shall not be abridged

so, by the rule of the highest court in the land, it’s unlimited
