IMO, that is the most important question, why are we paying for a player's education when a player is receiving huge NIL$$$ cash for playing college FB. Giving those players a free ride while providing them everything they need to compete in a game that they have nothing invested but their talent.

That would be like any of us getting a job and the employer giving us transportation to and from work, they also pay for our food, they pay for all of medical with prescriptions, and then they pay us a paycheck and we wouldn't have to spend a dime of it for the cost of living. Now that would be a great job to have..

Wouldn't that be an absolutely great deal for us to just go and do our jobs every day and not have to pay for our cost of living from our paychecks. College athletes get those types of deals and most of them leave school without their degree that was paid for by the school with a full ride scholarship, and they will leave school and leave those degrees on the table, what a deal to have.

NIL players should without any doubt have to pay for their schooling, and if they want to waste their investment for an education, then it's their lost and not a lost to the school that invested all that money on them by them leaving that degree on the table!!!
