Will that ever be on the table?
I’m sure everyone will agree Michigan is not facing any appreciable penalty.
Can and would the NCAA cut someone’s rev share for football from, say, $18million to $15million for 4 years. You cannot move the money to a collective, you cannot refund anything to a booster for a back-door rev share NIL deal, you have to show that money as a line item that exists but is not spent on FB.
Is this the only true penalty anyone would care about? Would they even have the power to do it?
EDIT to add clarity:
Kick the punishment out 2 years to cycle out any current deals, which are all 1 year deals anyway. Then the kids can go wherever they want and make whatever the “market” dictates if Michigan or whoever is being punished doesn’t have enough cash flow to pay them. Wouldn’t affect any current players’ financial situations.
It also would just affect rev share for football, which is set by the schools out of the $20.5million allowed. If they want to spend on other sports, go for it, you just have to show it on the books and it will be to the detriment of your FB roster for a time.
