SIAP - A Creative (and Powerful) Use of NIL by USC

[RedCap]

The linked article describes one way a NIL group is paying the way for player's families to attend games, they pay for travel and lodging for the families to attend games. In return the players are required to do some promotional work. I think this really would be very effective for a school like Nebraska to do being located so distant from some of the recruiting hotbeds. Families of players obviously like to attend the games and sometimes that's a big factor in choosing schools.

P.S. USC is one of the leaders in acquiring players from the portal. Lot's of NIL there.

They were doing this for Reggie Bush years ago.

Would be a lot harder to do here, not a lot of direct flights in to Lincoln and Omaha, especially on Saturday mornings.

That wasn't travel, that was permanent housing.

But that's why it's even more important for Nebraska IMO. They'd have to fly in Friday nights and probably leave Saturday night or Sunday. So the trip, if arranged by a family, is more difficult/expensive to make to Nebraska than to a bigger metro area. And thus the value also is greater to the family if it's done for them.

Many of the top teams recruit nationally now. OSU, Alabama, etc. Anyone can get to Lincoln if they really want to...baring inclement weather. So if some NIL's can get families to fly into Omaha or Lincoln, let them get after it.
