- Rutgers Scarlet Knights - Nebraska Cornhuskers: What time is the football game and where to watch it?
- Travis Hunter shockingly reveals the NFL team he wants to draft him: Will it be possible in the Top 5?
Jimbo Fisher had success when he has coaching in college football, especially with Florida State, however in Texas A&M not so much. Whether is because of that last part of because he truly believes things are wrong in college football, he was very open about his thoughts about the current state of NIL.
Fisher went on SiriusXM radio this week to speak on the matter and he was on it as he ripped the current state of NIL and provided some possible solutions that in his mind should be adopted to try and save the sport and the athletes.
"College football is - I complain about it, it's still the greatest game. As much as I love NFL, and I'm crazy about it, and I respect it, but college football, man, you don't know - 18, 22 teams, you don't know what you're going to get. I mean, it's still so - I love college basketball, all those things, I love all college sports, but college football man, we need a commissioner," Fisher said on the Off Campus show.
Explaining his take on things
He went on to say that even after student-athletes are benefiting themselves for really the first time ever off the popularity of schools, a lot of people are complaining about NIL and there are many reasons that in his mind need to be fixed.
"We need revenue sharing. We need a salary cap, for all schools, and if you're caught - and the other part of this, the tampering that other schools do with players, is utterly ridiculous. I mean, the big schools are going and getting players constantly from other schools, and it's being done illegally," Jimbo Fisher stated.
"Those guys are developing players, and all of a sudden their guys...that team shouldn't have an advantage, financially, to be able to take care of a guy that another school doesn't, and it's wrong," the coach added, and he might be on to something, especially if he comes back to work for a non-Power 4 university.
