So like any other job?


If it’s gonna get treated like this, like the nfl, then they should allow colleges to cut players who aren’t performing up to expectations

Being processed is essentially the same thing as being cut but you get my point

Colleges should never have to worry about an 85 limit, cuts should be open to be made during season and after or before, just like pros

That is a rule that the colleges have agreed to.

They can. There is no "employment" contract between the player and the team. The only "contract" is the 1 year scholarship agreement to attend the school. The NIL contracts are not through the school.

A coach can kick a player off the team ("cut him") during the season without any real recourse from the player.

While NIL contracts are, in essence, "pay for play" contracts, they aren't employment contracts. Everything you are saying should be allowed IS allowed. A coach can dismiss a player from the team at any time.
