Report: Texas football team has $35-$40 million payroll

It costs big bucks to keep the Texas Longhorns football team rolling. Longtime Texas reporter Kirk Bohls published a column on Tuesday for the Houston

larrybrownsports.com

Looks like Texas saw what Ohio State did last year and was like, here, hold my beer.

I'm a bit skeptical. For one, the original report seems to lump all $20m of the rev share amount into the number when I think its actually closer to $15m, based on the 75% number going around. Second, it makes no mention about the non-clearinghouse deadline and the front loading of contracts that teams are doing. So it could potentially not be $25m, of non-rev share NIL for just this year, but $25m worth of contracts for the next few years that are front loaded to this year.

I think I'll wait to pass judgement on that number until more reporters confirm it instead of just quoting what was essentially one paragraph in a much further ranging article.

Also the revenue sharing from schools has not started officially. This is a projection

I believe anything of substance will have to come from the legislative branch. Just not sure what the executive branch has the authority to do when it comes to NIL.

Also, waiting for the inevitable political comment that only makes the poster look like an idiot instead of focusing on the topic at hand.

I’ll be on the lookout in 2046 then

sadly, that is the biggest issue regarding this.

This is going to get interesting. 0% chance SEC tries to enforce a damn thing.

House passed yesterday. Seems like they caved on the Deloitte FMV audit. Lot of room for a whole lot of nothing in terms of enforcement there.

House passed* yesterday. Seems like they caved on the Deloitte FMV audit. Lot of room for a whole lot of nothing in terms of enforcement there.

*It wasn't a vote (yes, I'm quibbling).

The House v NCAA settlement finally provides some legal framework and hopefully we start to see some enforceable rules to settle the chaos.

Amateurism is dead!!

Collective bargaining is up next!

is there a decent article with the cliffsnotes breaking down the main content of this?

The less regulation the better as far as I'm concerned. All that would do is set us back to the way it was before where respectable institutions like ND follow those rules and the SEC disregards them, cheats, and gains a significant advantage.

I wonder why Fbolt gave you a thumbs down for that?

Could be for 5 different reasons I can count, only 2 of them good

Yeah-I don't want collective bargaining. Nothing against jp.

I think it's the next step. It would also put enforceable rules in place.

The NCAA could give a few tens of millions to the president and he'd sign the NCAA written EO, and he'd push congress to codify it with legislation. I'm being dead serious.

ND would get hammered for self reporting a player getting a free lemonade from his sister's lemonade stand while Miami QBs get paid $1M to supervise orgies on yachts.

Funny to me how quickly they are trying to reign in these kids collecting checks and make it "fair".

The problem with the old system was that it was unenforceable because the NCAA did not have subpoena powers. The new system either has to be more deregulated or have much stronger enforcement ability. Personally, I hope its the latter because I feel like it better for the long term health of the sport overall, but I would be willing to accept the former rather than go back to the murky middle we had before.

I don't see enforcement being feasible. It wasn't before, why would it be now? Horse has left the barn.

That's where collective bargaining comes in. You set clear rules, in a contract, and they are enforceable. Like the way many businesses, including all the major American professional sports, operate.

Who is enforcing? Cause those leagues are able to punish violations in ways that the NCAA has been unwilling to

That's part of the bargaining

That's part of the union grift

So there are rules against endorsements? Jordan had the Bulls sign off on his Nike contract? This "clearinghouse" idea is a nothing more than a grift - pay the overlords a share of your revenue, use "qualified" agents or some other BS to control people and get extra hands in the honey pot. Then when some kid doesn't file the paperwork correctly to smile on social media for his uncle's pizza parlor they will make an example of him.

 

[jprue24]

We can make this about unions if you want, because I FUCKING LOVE THEM!

or we can wait until it's actually a happening and not get another thread locked.
Also, the rules against endorsements are just another step towards making them employees. I don't think it's going to hold up in court. They can control endorsements when they start offering contracts. That should be the beginning of some enforceable transfer rules.

edit - needed more emphasis

In new bills, Congress’ most direct plan yet to empower NCAA on post-House rules takes shape

The Energy and Commerce, Judiciary and Education and Workforce committees plan to introduce a set of bills in pursuit of the NCAA's goals.

With the House v. NCAA settlement now finalized and approved, a new push within Congress will attempt to turn it into law and give the NCAA and conferences more power to enforce their rules.

The Republican-led committee would .... do the following:

• Fully deputize the Collegiate Sports Commission (or another entity) to enforce the settlement rules, such as requiring athletes disclose third-party name, image and likeness deals worth more than $600 and allow the prohibition of compensation that is not considered fair market value

So back to paying Cam Newton's dad instead of Cam Newton? But this time more legally or something.

 

[SDIrishFan]

I guess I’m confused. Players can still leverage their NIL to setup their own personal deals with sponsors, right? As long as they pass the “clearing house” to determine FMV?
