Geoff Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Universities play up the "oh look we're barely getting by financially" aspect by dumping the money into facilities and coaching salaries. We're going to see they same or similar financial reports except it won't be "we don't have much in profits but look at our new football-only facility," it'll be "we have to pay our mercenaries." As sponsorship rules/laws get more lax, we'll see more money being dumped into college sports. As much as some say "I'll never watch if they pay the athletes," those people are the vast minority and most of them won't follow through. With more and more states legalizing sports gambling, we'll see more schools follow Colorado's lead and partner with sportsbooks/casinos. There's never going to be a shortage of money being spent on marketing/advertising gambling entities.

CS85 Posted July 1, 2021 Author Share Posted July 1, 2021 Starting today, NCAA athletes can be sponsored, make money in their name and likeness, and the deals have been happening EVERYWHERE today. Good for them. The NCAA, as expected, is not sure how to handle it at all. https://theathletic.com/news/ncaa-approves-interim-nil-policy-for-college-athletes/HSSJIy9wkRMg Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

It's devoid of any further context like a headline or the accompanying article so I genuinely don't understand that criticism of the Miami graphic, how that reads as "greedy", or how that even suggests the players are greedy. You have to go out of your way to ascribe that intention to the subtext to fit that interpretation. I think it's far less involved and just a statement that they finally earn money on their own names. I don't see what's wrong with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Bush, since it was he AND his parents that were receiving inducements, I don't think he should get his records back. For the Ohio State players, who sold items they earned, I'd like to see them get those records back. Heck, that 2011 Penn State game technically didn't exist at one point dur to the PSU coverup but it's part if Penn State's records now, just not Ohio State's.

tBBP Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 On 6/21/2021 at 5:13 PM, Sec19Row53 said: But, the non-Power 5 just won't pay their players much if anything. How will that change things? It isn't like the Power 5 schools will suddenly have rosters that are twice as big as before. If they're already paying under the table, this just gets it above-board. Good for the athlete-students. It isn't the deathknell that it seems to be among some of you, IMO. These endorsement deals will come about in other ways than just big-name sponsorship and/or advertisements--and even in the non-power 5 levels, as well. Like this guy... That's Jackson State's Antwan Owens, believed to be the first college athlete to sign one of these NIL deals. Story here. (Bet some of y'all thought the first would be at a power-5, didn't ya? ) On 7/1/2021 at 8:41 AM, CS85 said: Starting today, NCAA athletes can be sponsored, make money in their name and likeness, and the deals have been happening EVERYWHERE today.

Geoff Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 When the Panthers said they wanted to dabble in NIL, I figured it would be D'Eriq. He's the only player in any sport with the level of fame at Miami to make it worth it. No one would turn out to see the Hurricanes' ace and eat his Fastball Fries or whatever.
