 Tierney: The College Football Players Association launched on Tuesday to organize and represent College Football Players as they navigate the new and NIL rules in the future. They will begin signing athletes this week who will pay dues of $24 per year to be a member. What do we make of the new see of CFBPA? I think is important. You want them to pay taxes, not incur debt, and possibly worse. I think it's very smart, it’s sensible, a nominal fee -- $24 a year -- just some guidance, some structure.

Tiki: Right now, the only recourse is that these kids have to look for agents! Now, you are signing with an agent before you even meet an agent. I think having a union -- even if they just send you information -- you just don't have to have constant contact with a union or have a union rep for your school, but there is information out there so you can get an idea about this whole NIL situation, this world that they are all entering now, is all about. A lot of kids didn't grow up with that kind of financial understanding.

Tierney: It's knew, how could they?
