October 3, 20223 yr What does that have to do with NIL? Seems to belong on a thread about the 4 game redshirt and one free transfer rules.

October 7, 20223 yr ESPN put up a somewhat interesting article on NIL deals per school and what schools released info. For all of Saban's calls for transparency Bama released nothing. Unsurprisingly not only did LSU release nothing but got the state of Louisiana to pass a law protecting NIL deals from open records requests. Kentucky passes a law that allows athletes to nullify NIL deals when they go pro and makes NIL contracts sealed documents. ATM has 4.2 mill in NIL of which 3.4 goes to football. Ohio state has 3 mill of which 2.7 goes to football We have $879,000 in NIL for football but apparently with that excluding the 4 largest contracts for some reason. Softball was 2nd at like 257k. Oregon told ESPN and the NCAA to fuck off on requesting NIL figures. And this bit of genius from the secretary of education to top it off, he'slooking at it through title IX: ""Some of the concerns I have is that it's going to be the male athletes getting paid and [the] just-as-committed, just-as-hard-working women athletes, not. ... Universities must adapt and create structures that are monitoring this, that are communicating what they're doing to proactively create equity," he said. Genius... ya'll tried that once with facilities donations from private donors and the courts told yall title IX can't be applied to private donations.....these are private contracts.....good lord . You can require the schools to provide equal access to NIL opportunities, but you can't make private entities donate money to sports that they don't want to. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/34739678/following-nick-saban-jimbo-fisher-nil-spat-schools-answer-call-transparency

October 7, 20223 yr 3 hours ago, BurntOrange&White said: Yeah seems like numbers they want you to see. There are so many conflicting interests on who wants you to see what. Players, coaches, ADs, school administrators all have different agendas on what they want you to see and why. Some are happy to boast and claim higher numbers, while others will want to artificially deflate the numbers.

As a result, the 19-year-old's total compensation through name, image, and likeness (NIL) deals is now approaching the $4 million mark.

The thought of 19 year old me on campus with X million dollars is scary. I’m sure it would have ended with a joint agency raid on my apartment or dorm, likely led by the IRS.

October 11, 20223 yr I ended up at a bar tab for OU boosters on Friday night after Lee Harveys and going out to dinner. (My date for the game is at OU for her MBA and wanted to meet up with some of her friends there.) I didn't tell anyone there I went to UT but asked about NIL for OU. I was surprised how little of an understanding most of them had about NIL. They are definitely behind the ball compared to us. Edited October 11, 20223 yr by Tex48

October 26, 20223 yr If the NCAA doesn't get some kind of anti-trust exemption, this will just keep getting worse. The NCAA can't win in court. None of these things are illegal. They can't stop it.
October 26, 20223 yr NCAA makes major interim NIL changes, allowing coaches to make appearances, provide memorabilia among key modifications NCAA is also allowing schools to directly promote athletes' NIL opportunities JOHN BRICE 2 HOURS AGO The NCAA’s ongoing quest, and that of its member institutions, to find in some way, shape or form to provide guidance on Name, Image and Likeness matters took another turn Wednesday. The NCAA’s Division I Board of Directors “voted unanimously to clarify how schools can be involved with the name, image and likeness activities of enrolled student-athletes on their campuses,” the NCAA said, in part, in its release. In its earliest forms, it was established that schools would not have an opportunity to directly participate in the facilitation of endorsement deals and other opportunities that could allow student-athletes to profit from his or her personal brands. However, that model has changed in the relatively short period that NIL has dramatically changed the landscape of college athletics, particularly in Football Bowls Subdivision football and notably among the sport’s Power-5 members. “The NIL landscape is constantly evolving, and the Board of Directors decided it was important to offer further guidance with respect to a number of key questions that have arisen recently,” University of Georgia President Dr. Jere Morehead, also chair of the Division I Board, said in the release. “As we continue to reinforce current NCAA rules, we expect to offer further guidance in the future on what should and should not be done when engaged in these activities. “We are committed to fostering a fair and appropriate NIL environment that supports our students and complies with our rules.” Among the most noteworthy elements of this latest attempt by the NCAA to corral the nebulous NIL space, the organization said it both allowed an encouraged education of student-athletes about NIL opportunities, the financial and tax implications that oftentimes accompany those paid opportunities, and the NCAA also noted it would allow schools to educate individual boosters, prospects and collectives, such as the ones involved with programs like the University of Tennessee, Georgia, Southern Cal, South Carolina, Florida and other programs that have, for now, harnessed NIL opportunities into enhanced recruiting of prospective student-athletes. Like many major-college athletics program, the University of Tennessee has dedicated resources on its Web site that pertain to NIL Also of particular note: “The Board also clarified that school personnel (including coaches) CAN assist an NIL entity with fundraising through appearances or by providing autographed memorabilia but CANNOT donate cash directly to those entities (collectives, such as Tennessee’s nationally renowned Spyre Sports Group). “School staff members also cannot be employed by or have an ownership stake in an NIL entity.” Those elements could have immediate reactions. “The new guidance may require institutions and key stakeholders to modify practices, and some disentanglement may be necessary,” Lynda Tealer, chairperson of the NIL Working Group and an executive assistant athletics director at the University of Florida, said in the release. In blunt terms: some collectives that have been in part funded or staffed directly by university personnel would likely need to divest from those organizations. The Full NCAA release is available here on the organization’s Web site, and a PDF file with all the latest guidelines from the NCAA also is available at this link.

None of these things are illegal. They can't stop it. Doesn't it have to be bad to "get worse"? What exactly is the issue with players being compensated by the marketplace? You obviously understand there is nothing illegal about it, but why are you seemingly pining for legislative interference that would prohibit a certain class of adults from being able to make money?
