The House Settlement will only apply to that group of plaintiffs. The next group is waiting in line to file their cause of action, probably represented by the same NY law firmthe "house settlement" is one of the courts not the legislative branch. but i agree, at some point congress may step in to bring some sanity to college sports. i too have believed this for a long time.
Historic House-NCAA settlement leaving hundreds of Olympic sport athletes in peril
While the NCAA and power conferences agreed to expand upon scholarships as part of the settlement, they also imposed roster limits for sports, many of which did not previously exist.sports.yahoo.com
REPORT: Michigan presents $5 million NIL offer to 5-star QB Bryce Underwood
- Thread starter phoenix4nu
- Start date
What does this have to do with what Michigan NIL is willing to pay a player?
In what way is Underwood’s deal different than any other NIL deal? (other than the exorbitant dollar amount)
You know what funny is that Deoins kid at Colorado Shedeur is actually what a NIL deal should be . 90 percent of his money is not tied to Colorado. It’s actually a true NIL deal. I love Tne fact that DR is our QB . Buy what does he actually Do for his money?
There’s an article about his potential flip on the front page of ESPN. Not a single mention of NIL in it. That seems unusual.
I hope the kids stick with his pledge to LSU.
I hope the kids stick with his pledge to LSU.
Considering they charge 2x as much to attend, they probably can swing 2x as much for a QB. NIL is about as out of control as the overall cost of school.
I’m sure it’s not. I just thought that you couldn’t do “pay for play”. Maybe I’m wrong. Do these kids have to do some sort of advertising or something for that money?
I would be really curious to see an interview with businesses who set aside millions for these NIL deals...after a few years of these things have cycled through to see if they feel like they got their money's worth..and i'm serious. I would read that article start to finish.
Did they hand him one of those giant checks like when you win the publishers clearinghouse sweepstake then take a picture with him and the staff holding it?
I think if your NIL deal is through a “collective” there’s little responsibility on the athletes part cause the money comes from so many different sources. I think each contract stands on it’s own, as in, if a singular company donates a large amount to a collective with the understanding that this money is for a specific player or sub-set of players that are required to advertise for said company. Then yes, I suppose there would be some contractual obligations to advertise for said company. But in that sort of situation, why wouldn’t that company ink the NIL deal privately instead of going through a collective? In the end, the NIL money from a “collective” comes from a wide ranging and diverse pool. Private donations from fans and boosters, private companies and/or anyone who wants to support these athletes. In many cases there really isn’t any one specific company or organization for these kids to advertise for, except the collective it’s self.
No, not really. Kids get the money whether they play or not. Jeff Simms got benched and only played in 3-4 games, but he still got his NIL money. It’s not pay for play if you get the money regardless if you play or perform well.
They don't release their NIL figures, but I'd like to know how much money Oregon and Uncle Phil has spent. I have a feeling it dwarfs OSU's amount
