How does the old saying go? "Adapt or perish" is the situation that the Ohio State Buckeyes and many universities around the country are in with the current state of Name, Image, and Likeness in college sports.

Former national championship quarterback Cardale Jones believes that the Buckeyes need to adapt to the new way of college football, or... they could fall behind.

After complimenting programs like Florida, Alabama, and Texas, for working "hand-in-hand" with their collectives, Jones called out Ohio State for their poor job of supporting potential avenues within NIL.

"[THE Foundation is] completely different; we don't work for Ohio State," Jones said on 92.3 The Fan. "Sad to say, but we get very little support from Ohio State, and all we are trying to do is help them continue to win games by getting great recruits, by pretty much trying to solidify coaches' jobs."

Jones, alongside Brian Schottenstein, runs a collective, THE Foundation, and knows from first-hand experience what impact a well-run collective can do in helping to recruit elite talent.
