The unwritten rule is to not boo football, basketball or any college athlete since they're still kids,are student-athletes, etc. Only boo the coaches who are getting paid big bucks. So how do we treat kids that now get big NIL deals and are playing poorly? Is the unwritten rule invalid for NIL athletes?

If they're on the other team, boo to your heart's content. Unless we're playing a service academy.
We’re winning … and a lot. Even when we weren’t winning for decades… I never boo’d. These are kids representing my university. NIL/No NIL why boo bad play??. Stay classy.
If you’re paying a kid they are fair game for booing. I’m not paying any player so I won’t be booing.
Not at all. Just curious about what people think since all previous concepts about college/amateurism have been thrown out.
Nothing to do with today’s game. It came to me after we the news of Ace Bailey committing
The Golden Rule. Treat others like how you'd want to be treated.
Booing is really dumb in other words.

Imagine getting the first 5 star recruit in our history and your first thought is do I have the right to boo him?
Be excited that we are getting some top talent!

A normal reaction to getting a top 5 recruit for the first time ever
Guys/gals,
Starting this thread had nothing to do with today’s game, nor do I boo players or have any desire to boo players. We’ve all read how Rutgers is lacking in NIL vs some other P5 schools. Bailey’s commitment was a surprise considering who was recruiting him and the bag men those school have. So I wondered if any posters here who had contributed to NIL collectives would react differently if a player performed poorly (i.e. felt he/she wasn’t getting a good ROI).
