So why can’t schools sign players to multiple year contracts only breakable by refunding the Revenue Share? Seems like they could lock in a lawsuit proof ironclad contract if worded correctly and signed by Players and Their Agents/Attorneys.

They can and do. The Michigan QB is on a 4-year, $10M contract. Problem there is he sucks & the contract makes it difficult to bench him. And you’re stuck with 2-1/2 more years on the contract either way.

That sounds like a good idea in theory but reality is a bit different. First of all the only teams that need to do this are second tier and the only players these teams will want to secure with such a deal are those with multiple P5 offers. These are also the players that will respond to such a request by telling that team to pound sand then sign with a blue blood.

The players likely to go for such a deal are those who are promising but with fewer options and something still to prove. Teams are going to hesitate from chaining themselves to such players for 4 years and millions of dollars lest they not pan out.
