deals that the Big10 is able to, so the SEC wants the College Sports Commission in place to essentially cap NIL deals, and none of the other conferences are on board with this at the moment.

If the SEC is the big draw in college football, why can't they line up the NIL deals for their players? Wouldn't the commercial sponsors that buy ads on the SEC broadcast be interested in deals?
