Would you be OK charging an extra $5 for your BYU football ticket

if it went straight to pay players? That would give the program about an extra $3M. Sounds like that's what UT is going to do with the 100K+ tickets they sell to their games.

NEWS: Tennessee is preparing to add a 10% 'talent fee' to ticket prices to raise money to give its players💰

Maybe if there were a guarantee it actually went to the players.

This. Maybe if it went to a dedicated football NIL fund. But general athletic

Or, you know, they could just ALREADY take $5 and give it to the players.
