Meyer is right though, in that no rules and regulations mean programs will totally cross the line.Salalah (Oman): India’s junior men’s hockey team maintained its continental supremacy as it beat arch-rivals Pakistan 2-1 to emerge Asia Cup champions for the fourth time here on Thursday.Īngad Bir Singh (13th minute) and Araijeet Singh Hundal (20th) scored for India while Pakistan managed to pull one back through Abdul Basharat (37th).
Then again, Congress makes the simple complicated and exists to screw it up. This may be why getting Congress involved could help, to get some sort of clarity on the national landscape. Some will be all about it, while others will view NIL as another unholy vice one could ever have. I think the biggest pervasive issue in this is each state will want to do its own thing if left to its own devices. Everybody and their brother doesn’t think their collective is doing enough, while also despising the fact that some programs are essentially doing pay-for-play with incoming freshmen, including pretty much every finger pointer. Congress is almost as bad.Īdmittedly, we are at a very weird stage in the game where it is a bunch of finger pointing, on top of an endless supply of bickering and bantering. How bad is it? Well, major makers and shakers in college athletics are approaching Congress on this issue. Either way, college sports needs some sort of governance in this because the NCAA is absolutely worthless. I don’t know if this means there will be a cap on what a student-athlete can make, or if there will be some sort of implementation of a salary cap. Because what we have now is we have some states and some schools in some states that are investing a lot more money in terms of managing their roster than others.” “If it’s going to be the same for everyone, I think that’s better than what we have now. He is not the first major figurehead to preach for parity. Being on the board of THE Foundation may have him more privy to certain information pertaining to NIL than most people who aren’t actively swimming in it. He is not an active coach, but he also understands fully what it takes to win at the highest level, collegiately. I think the good thing serving Meyer in this capacity is two-fold.
Urban Meyer pretty much accuses all college football programs of “cheating” They are going to have to figure this out.Īlthough Meyer is not a person I would turn to when discussing ethics, he is right in that NIL needs guardrails in the worst way possible. It should be noted that while Ohio State has a great athletic department, it does not have one of the strongest collectives out there, now three years into this. Keep in mind that Meyer is a board member of THE Foundation, an NIL collective that helps compensate Ohio State basketball and football players for their names, images and likenesses. When I hear that word, I kind of cringe right now and I hear the stories behind it that they’re going to go to donors and boosters and ask for a lot of money, put it in a big pot, and then decide who gets that money based on ability level. “I’m not saying it’s all that way, but from my understanding, it’s a fancy word for cheating. Here is what Meyer said to Dakich about NIL and collectives while on Don’t Me on Thursday.
Meyer is still young enough to land a Power Five job of note, but he does view NIL as cheating. NIL was not part of the equation only five years ago. Although Meyer most recently coached with the 2021 Jacksonville Jaguars, he has not led a college program since leaving the Ohio State Buckeyes in 2018. Meyer spoke with Outkick’s Dan Dakich about all sorts of things, including NIL. If you have any doubts about Urban Meyer ever coaching in college football again, I think his stance on NIL will probably make that pretty difficult for him. Urban Meyer largely equates the new landscape of NIL in college football to that of cheating.
