Teams will always cheat, wether or not there are 1 and dones. There is too much money being made by universities that they are always going to be willing to bend rules for advantages. I think the level of play will still generate the kind of numbers it does now. My personal thought is that universities should put the money in some kind of interest making brokerage/bank account that can’t be touched by players until 5 years after their freshman year. Obviously there should be limits to keep things fair. These kids are making so much money for their “ bosses” and they deserve to get compensated. College athletics is a full time job. Getting a free education is great, but is nothing compared to what the schools are making in the power 5 conferences.

That's a good suggestion and I've heard others mention something similar. It sounds about right to me also. Pay them but do not give them the money until they graduate, turn 18, go professional (for some), or whatever is the desired endpoint.
