So the school facilitates the NIL transactions between players and payers.
Finally, pimpin' IS easy!
Do these NIL deals have a contract tied to them? Or is this all handshake/wink-wink type agreements?
Makes me wish I would have walked on when asked. Thought it was just going to be more work but would be mostly on my own.
Last year we were severely offensively challenged. We lose Brockington and Hunter and replaced them with a couple defensive transfers but yeah I’m sure we will be fine next year, lol.
They're contracts and the contracts have to be submitted to the athletic department or the clearinghouse representing the athletic department.
That's why you won't see gambling, hard liquor, etc type sponsorships.
Not a chance in hell this was offered to Brockington. He’d be stupid to turn that down. I mean…insanely stupid.
Something like 30% of NBA contracts are less than $1M/year. Healthy overseas contracts are around $500K/year.
The claims being floated around are absurd.
Good luck getting your $1000 from Falbo Bros Pizza if you don’t get cash up front.
And??
They are imo, and Johnson vs NCAA should say the same.
But it’s not because they get scholarships. That’s just the current, antiquated compensation for their valuable labor
I would have to assume they don't even have to truly provide a service, correct? I'd assume you could give a guy $500,000 just for the right to use his NIL, whether or not you actually do is another story.
They absolutely are. There isn't anywhere near the money floating around as people seem to think there is.
The vast majority of these deals are 4 figures.
So like - Here's $50K to be in my Car Dealership commercial - pay the kid and then never actually schedule the commercial.
Yeah you could do that
Even if there was a requirement, take 10 seconds to make one paid instagram post. Paying someone to use their image is so simple and impossible to prove if you’re actually sincere in using the likeness.
I've certainly heard a few times that a decent amount of money was offered to IB. Nowhere near what's being rumored about with Hunter, but a decent chunk of money.
Why can’t they pick any business- have the athlete “ask” for funding in which he gets 75% and business gets 25%. Win-win
I would think racing/gaming commissions would get involved if that was the case, wouldn't they?
The school has the right to reject and I can't imagine a school deciding that they want to be attached to that at this point.
