I have not done much research but I think the NIL is a massive can or worms that can be abused 10,000 different ways. All a booster has to say that some player(s) entertained his kids bday party or taught them how to throw a pass and then pay them $1000. Or, offer a recruit $100,000 to make a commercial for a local business when he makes the roster.
I know it already happens but making it legal will it be rampant as some schools. I know a kid that was a greyshirt on the IA football team about 10 years ago. A booster who owned a furniture store in IA city gave him an apartment above the store rent free and said it was in exchange for being "night security".
Schools like Auburn, LSU and Texas will be even more insane if there is not some controls in place.
