Geno: "I’m okay with them getting paid $100,000, $200,000, $500,000. But I’m also okay with them getting fired if they don’t perform.”

This would be a real-life lesson for the NIL recipients, wouldn't it? But if a highly compensated athlete would not perform for GENO I"m sure another programs would take a chance that she would in their program.
What disappoints me the most about the entire NCAA athletics situation is the have vs the have-not situation they have created, especially in women's basketball. Look at the non-conference scores for some of the "HAVES." They are winning games by 60 points.
I don't pretend to know the complexity and the nuances of the NIL landscape, but to me the NCAA seems to have taken a hands off approach to revenue sharing / NIL situation. It's a MESS. And now they seem to on the path to allowing NCAA athletes to bet on games--just not on game in their sport. WOW. Where will that lead?
