College football is a different sport now more than ever before.
The introduction of name, image, and likeness or NIL has people on both sides of the argument. Some are excited for athletes to get compensated for their likeness, but others see it as a big problem. No matter what one’s stance is, NIL is not going away.
It has impacted recruiting, the transfer portal, and attractive schools for coaches to find jobs.
Young faces in the coaching profession have been able to maneuver. They have found ways to make NIL work for them and create a ‘you can have it all’ culture for their respective schools.
