You're listening to One-on-One with DP on 93-7 The Ticket and The Ticketfm.com. Final segment of one-on-one, the captain show up next for Sean Jackson. She coming in or she in the Red Room? I don't know. No idea. Okay. As we had the conversation again, I appreciate you guys for being active on the starter Hamer Tech Line.

Great stuff today. Again, we have the smartest listeners in the state, and it's not even close. It's true. Ryan asked this. Ryan says, what's up, D.P.? What's up, Ryan? Is there any way they can limit how much is paid out like they get half? They spend half when they graduate.

That could be done in an agreement. And again, this has to be organized. But I understand that the university would be away from it. They cannot be involved in it. They can't. Against the rule. Yeah, I would say they can be, but you're breaking rules. No, but what the university sets aside.

right? Because they'll say that we have people. Like, what's it going to take to get you here? Well, it's going to take some cash. Okay, well, we have people and that's a space that the coaches can't go into. We will not operate in that space. If it's your best friend, okay, cool. Like, you're just, hey, but that's accountability between the coach and the best friend, right?

All things. And the athletic director overseeing and looking down and going, hey, you guys cool? We'll nudge you in this direction, but we won't outright say it. We can't send you. We can't refer. but the boxers are easily checked, the dots are easily connected. And at some point,

the conversation has to be tracked and noted. By the athletic director, one to protect the program in the university, right? And then the project himself. Yes. Right? And then the coach should, by all means,

find a way to be disconnected from it. Like, there has to be a leap from, while it's a dot connected, there should be a leap, a long line between the coach and the best friend that they're referring people to. Grand Canyon Space. Right, right, right. Grand Canyon Space is there. Because if that were done, then the collective, the Gator Collective, could simply say, here's how we're doing business. Whatever we agree to, we'll do this in, and see, and he says in half. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Here's where I would be with it.

And this is just me, having been in some of these situations. tell you what you get your signing bonus right you get your signing bonus that you are legally accountable to you can show up and if you don't show up you give us the money back and you put that in the agreement simple deal right once we get to the season hey there's your second third right second third in play and then end of season or end of year final third here's the final third now if this person is an underclassman. Guess what? It's extended over

the duration of the agreement. Yep. So if it's $8 million, we're going to give you $2 million a year for the four years. No, but I'm way too logical. Two million is nice. But Rico, think about how this thing has to be.

If you don't get functional and organized in how you pursue all this, chaos happens and this is where this is. He says, Gator Collective. Again, all of this stuff is paid. It's not pay per play.

It's not based on your production on and off the field unless you put the booster can't do that. And if the booster is found doing that, the player, the university, and the athlete are all punished. All bad. All punished, right? Jory says this, that the booster wasn't put, this wasn't set up to make athletes millionaires. Well, the function of the NCAA was not for coaches to be millionaires. That's not how it was set up. But now look at it was set up for millionaires to become millionaires.

Like that's what it was set up for. All of the operations and rules that are in place is for an elite group of people at the top of the pyramid for all of these places and spaces to get rich. Bowl games, rich. The people who run it, rich. The people who work for them, rich. People who are playing it, not so much. That's the rule behind it. It's when they realize.

and recognize that Bear Barron was a celebrity, that Steve Spruyer was a celebrity, the error procedure was a celebrity, that then they realized that the coaches had value. That's why coaches get shoe deals and not the athletic programs themselves. That's wild. It's just craziness behind this thing.

There are multiple states where the collegiate football coach is the highest paid employee in the state. Well, I mean, that's not the way it was set up. So, Raff, love you, buddy. I'm going to see you tomorrow looking forward to you. He says, using your crystal ball, what is the future of collegiate athletes, athletics.

This is it. Somebody will come along, though, and try to make chicken salad out of chicken poop. By putting basic things in place for everybody involved. Accountability for the NCAA, again, who now they're the substitute teacher, pretty much. Like, they're the babysit. They're the good auntie. who babysit you. Where there are some rules, but not really.

And it'll come down to conferences who want to elevate themselves and separate themselves. And then the member universities who get together on a regular basis and redirect and reset the GPS for how they're going to do business. All of this is in play

because the Big Ten's cool with it. You know, why? Because they're rich. They're getting richer. They're getting richer. So why would people who are in it for the money, stop doing the thing that makes them richer. Right?

They don't care if a student athlete gets rich because the student athlete is never going to get richer than they are. Nope. Right? And the people that are in place, coaches are in place. Look, all the coaches are making more money than the student athletes. Yep. So listen, somebody will come along with a plan on how this should be done.

And then they will ask the other boosters to get in line and get in group. And guess what? the Power 5 boosters will say no thank you we're good you know why because they're paid and they're got to keep getting paid the hope is the hope is that the universities step up get it right get the rules in play and it's going to take some friction it's going to take some friction people are not going to be happy because that bottom line what's what's the what's the what's the song cream cash rules

everything around me dollar dollar bill y'all I'm out till tomorrow stay good
