Dylan signs NIL deal with Adidas

Not sure what that means in practical terms. Does he get some NIL money out of it?

Raiola is only the latest athlete to sign with Adidas. Ahead of the NFL Draft, the company also announced deals with highly-touted prospects Travis Hunter and Abdul Carter. Adidas vice president of sports marketing Chris McGuire is thrilled to add Raiola to that list.
“We’re focused on identifying and building the most dynamic and talented roster of student-athletes in collegiate athletics,” McGuire wrote in a statement. “He’s one of the most promising young quarterbacks in the country and his commitment to building a special legacy at Nebraska makes him an ideal addition to our roster.”

Dylan Raiola is expected to be one of the best quarterbacks in the Big Ten in the upcoming season. He is expected to be one of the top prospects in the 2027 NFL Draft.

Obviously, Raiola is succeeding off the field as well. Raiola boasts a $2.3 million On3 NIL valuation, ranking No. 21 in On3’s NIL100. He’s also done deals with Campus Ink, EA Sports and Panini America in the past.
Now with all the money can he hit wide open WR's for TD's this fall is the big question.
 
Don't all these athletes have Sam Keller to thank for NIL? Didn't he start the ball rolling when a video game used his image? Something like that.
If I remeber correctly a basketball player before Keller kinda started it. O’bannion or something like that. But Keller was part of a law suit. I think that’s what happed to the original college football video went away was because of the law suits

He was a true freshman playing in a fish bowl in Lincoln. He made freshman mistakes. He handled it well. Never blaming coaches or teammates. He's also the best QB prospect we have had in ever. He set freshman records for QB's and led us to our first bowl win in 8 years. I think with some new weapons he will flourish in his sophomore season under Dana.

Sam Keller was first in 2009. His was than consolidated with Ed O’Bannions when he filed in 2015 .

Addidas is smart to add him to their team. Great talent for sure but ALSO a great, likable personality.

Yeah, it was Ed O'Bannon - former UCLA Bruin.
 
Keller had a good point but with his level of productivity in college I always felt he just should have been happy with the publicity he got. It's not like anyone bought that game because HE was on the package.

I am hoping so of course. Love to see the kid go crazy and Nebraska actually win games instead of finding ways to lose them.

Crossing my fingers on this one. I thought he looked pretty good at times last year, but was not really that mobile and made freshman mistakes. Would love to see the kid come out strong this fall and silence some of the few critics. Still alot of expectations and pressure but that’s pretty much at any school nowadays. Hoping Dylan looks more like his “cuzzo” this year.

He should have just thrown the OL under the bus every time he made a mistake.

That can get you all the way to about the 144th pick in the draft.
