Another good article from the Athletic. We are set to witness a sea change in college athletics, particularly football and men’s basketball. In my opinion, the changes will especially benefit programs that have momentum, like Alabama, Clemson, tOSU, Georgia, LSU and maybe Oklahoma. But I also think they will benefit Nebraska, despite our relative lack of population. Why? Because no one follows their team like Nebraska. It’s why the 95 Huskers win every poll or contest around greatest player ever. It’s why recruits constantly win on line polls. Scott alluded to twitter follows and likes in his signing day comments.
Scott would smart to retain Blake Lawrence and Adi Kunalic to brief him on social media and how athletes will be able to monetize their following on twitter and instagram and how to track that. Then, start selling the near future to kids and their families. It may not deliver the message he wants, but it will bring in talent, for sure.
We may not like the changes coming, but they are coming. Better to get ahead of them.
Change is coming, but the NCAA didn’t have answers for Congress on how soon it will happen
