NIL: How Does it Work? (Plus transfer rules)

Farm system.
Major league sports will be fine. It's going to be much, much harder for the pipeline of Olympic sports athletes.
I think it would depend on which schools take which Oly sports seriously.
I doubt it will happen, but if all non-P2 leagues/programs drop football as a varsity sport, it will have a massive impact on the NFL. You can't go from a talent pipeline of 130+ D1 programs to 40, 42, or 48 programs and expect to have the same amount of talent filling NFL rosters.
At bare minimum, I think the NFL needs the entire P5 amount of programs (65-70) to legitimately sustain itself and that might even be a stretch.
I think the multi billion operation that is the NFL will rapidly be able to build out a minor league system starting on the framework of the UFL or whatever the current springb league is.
It won't be a one to one replacement, but the pathways and funds are there to figure it out much easier than USATF and swimming etc. will be able to.
Oh for sure. I was responding more to your assertion that pro sports will be fine. I think they certainly will be, but I believe there's a point where the NFL, for example, will have to take action to preserve it's feeder league. I don't think a separate farm system will work. There is/was already the Canadian League, the XFL, AFL, USFL, NFL Europe, etc and that's where NFL players and lesser college players go to die.
I think the long term play from the NFL is ensuring that it's media partners, who also happen to be partners with the P2 in CFB, include more than the 36-48 team super league. The NFL is already in talks with ESPN to acquire a stake in the company. I could totally see the NFL getting involved in the business of college football.
