I saw that the NCAA is proposing a salary cap of $23.1 million per year with annual increases. This is based off providing the players 22% of the average power conference TV revenue.
If this is passed, which I assume it will, then every school will start hiring a GM and that position will be by far the most important. I say that because I don’t believe this will prevent private companies from providing NIL contracts to individuals. This only includes the NIL contracts specifically provided by the school. Therefore, whatever school’s GM can set up players with the best private NIL deals will end up with the best roster. I assume this would be handled by the GM simply because there is no way the HC would have enough time to take this on.
Please correct me if I am wrong, but I don’t see how the NCAA could prevent 3rd parties from paying players whatever they want.
