Florida State NIL penalties

[WhichReligionIsRight]

I honestly didn't think this could happen - the NIL stuff is like the wild west. But, here we are.

Sources: NCAA levies significant penalties on Florida State for NIL recruiting violations

The NCAA is expected to levy significant penalties on FSU in the most serious and unprecedented sanctions handed down in the first 2 1/2 years of NIL.

sports.yahoo.com

A Florida State assistant coach, offensive coordinator Alex Atkins, is found to have committed two Level II violations, which include impermissible recruiting activity and facilitating impermissible contact with an NIL-related booster. Atkins is alleged to have driven a prospect and his parents to a meeting with a leading member of the school’s NIL collective, Rising Spear.

IMO, this is like the NCAA fining and suspending a coach for buying a recruit a meal. Ridiculous.

Waldo should be giving Bobby his wins back instead of nitpicking over this nonsense

Keep that trash school out of the B1G.

My initial reaction was one of bewilderment, then I read the penalties and realized it was a slap on the wrist

FSU would be absolutely nuts to be doing what they're doing unless they had a landing spot. And I assume that's the BIG (no inside info).

KN secretly loves the Noles

He plays it off like he doesn’t, but we all know his true feelings

B1G is the rumor

I won’t say lock it up, but they’re definitely the leader in the clubhouse as we approach the back 9

Shut down that rogue program.

Yeah...like the SMU program got back in the day. Somehow they've magically risen from the dead. 👻

Umm, a head coach getting suspended for buying cheeseburgers recently happened at Michigan.

Thank God Italy made it

In the game against Ukraine for qualification, I thought for sure they were going to call penalty for a trip in a box and extra time to give them the equalizer

Looking at the replay, they would’ve been justified in calling a penalty
