Nods: put this in whatever forum is appropriate:
Kiffin has now said publicly what some of us have been saying on this board since the NIL decisions - college football is now a professional sport.
Its a great interview - he's always outspoken and he doesn't hold back here.
- the coming separation of the top 8-10 programs, then the next 15 programs and then the rest.
- the influence of the donors
- changes in how recruits look at programs
- wholesale portal entries every year, looking for pay raises among the elite players
I think he is completely right.
