There has been a lot of talk on Twitter from some big names on NIL the last few days. Imagine burning down a product like college football, but here we are.

@cyclone4L Maybe stop tweeting directly at players and being extremely cringe constantly. It is not a good look at all.
There are other schools/boosters that will pay anything to pluck proven players from other other programs. That is just the reality of it now.
Said he was leaving for money and several players called him out.
That's great and all, but so have many other teams. There is nothing special about Iowa St that helps guys get to the pros. If you can get NIL money AND have a path to pros, who doesn't take that?
So why invest any emotion, not to mention time and money? This is going to be taking place every month, throughout the year, even during the season.
He’s scared of what’s coming up on the depth chart just like Isheem……right???
The Coach K’s and Jay Wright’s of the world got out just in time!
My interest goes downhill a little bit every day.
I root for the jersey not the individual but as I learn about the individual I start to care and root for them. With free agency for players I will unfortunately start to not care as much about the individual and thus will probably start to lose interest overall. Part of college fandom is they chose ISU like we did and the creates a bond and without that I might as well watch pro ball.
It’s horrible. I know I’m losing passion and interest for it
He had a podcast where he was interviewing recruits for a while I believe. Hopefully that's stopped.
What if the D coordinator leaves at the school he goes to, or the head coach, or he gets recruited over at the new school?
I think that is a natural reaction and is something college athletics departments across the country are extremely concerned about. It does seem like it's going to really suck for a few years, but it just doesn't seem sustainable. The dam will break one way or another eventually. Gonna have to ride it out.
Wow, very suprised he left. Thought he would have a big role this season. Gonna suck to see him leave
JP already is laying the talking points around dropping down a level or at least having a level below a breakaway league.
The 2A kids don't compete against the 4A kids but they are super happy to win their division.
I'm not overreacting to a singular event. My lack of interest in college athletics has been growing for a couple of years.
I went last college football season without ESPN or FS1 and had a couple of weeks where I didn't watch ball. I'll probably do it again this year
Very poor decision waiting to do this after Spring ball has concluded
