Me to 5 star recruit: “If you play football at [my university], I’ll buy 5 of your signed jerseys for $10,000 each.”

5 star recruit: Deal!

Alabama: $20,000 each!

Clemson: $30,000 each!

What could go wrong?

The NCAA only brought this on themselves with obscene coach and AD pay. Saban is making $8 million a year to coach “amateur” athletes.

You really nailed it. It won't be the schools, it will be the "Booster" groups. The richest schools will make the best offers.
