Yes, in a pure capitalistic sense...but our sport really exists (in modern times) on the largesse of other sports.  Sports socialism, if you will.

The sport yes, but not the NIL dollars.

Here’s the clip for reference, it is a bit misleading bc it cuts out right before he says he doesn’t think it’s sustainable for PSU or OSU to spend that much money either

Yes -True - but athletes are not limited to just what the school is going to pay out to them, which in the case of wrestling will be nothing in most cases - as we all know.  Compared to what the arbitrator will see in football cases, the wrestling cases will be peanuts, which I hope results in few obstacles for wrestling

 

That's probably a good point. Also, what stopping these athletes from getting a lawyer and taking each decision from Deloitte to court. That seems to be happening a lot there days.

Guess we will need to wait until it happens to someone from Cornell

It's more difficult now that BB became available after signing AJ.   It also gets complicated in that Nebraska is known to take care of the ones that are already there, so there is little to no NIL money left for immediate use.

Willie and Basch also predicted PSU.

I think they have now reversed and said they think it will NOT be PSU, although they think OSU isn't a good fit.  

It seems like even with the new NIL rules, it's going to be easy for people to cheat.  They just need one of Buffet's Berskshire Hathaway guys that loves Nebraska wrestling, or maybe Larry the Cable Guy can help, or is he just a football fan.

Dispassionate Penn State grad and fan.

Out of the three finalists I’m hoping for Nebraska.  Find the money.

Buffet just gave away another $9B.  Maybe he could keep some of the $s in state, kind've chump change for the Buff to fund the Bo.

And y'all thought Downey was a bad cat 

He stole from little kids, at the very least... and that isn't even getting in to the $hit he allegedly did.

Bad, evil, and incompetent are all not good.  Once you cross a certain threshold, unacceptable is unacceptable.

NIL is a cancer

Yeah, NIL has some nice things, but it will for sure be the downfall of Div 1 wrestling.

NIL as it was supposed to be is totally fine; but it was the NCAA refusing to allow/police it from the start that let it immediately become the wild wild west of pay for play that got us where we are

We all knew they wouldn't be able to police it.
