It's the same story every spring now. You see a kid like that 300-pound lineman with four big schools fighting over him, and you just know it's not about the program or the education anymore. It's an auction. I remember when a recruit would visit Carnegie Mellon and you'd talk about the tradition, the degree, the chance to build something. Now the first question is the NIL number. It's poisoned the whole well. We used to develop three-star guys into All-Americans because they had heart and stayed for the long haul. Now if they have a good sophomore year, their agent is shopping them before the bowl game. The sport I fell in love with is gone, replaced by a mercenary league where loyalty is a punchline.
