The NCAA will allow athletes to profit from their name, image, and likeness

Oh great.  Just what we need.   Congress getting involved.   What can go wrong?

If Congress is going to get involved in kids making money for pointless things like “being famous”, can they at least make it illegal to monetize social media views for EVERYONE?

 

That would be awesome!

Seems like a win/win/lose:

 

- Big schools (Nebraska) win because they can let the market work in their favor and allow the market to set caps

- Big athletes (Malachi Coleman, Casey Thompson, insert recruit or player) win because their earnings are now tied to brand and school

- Little schools (ULM, Buffalo) and Little athletes (4* that redshirted, walk-on, even WR3/RB2, e.g.) find themselves on shaky ground since licensing deals are driven by the athlete's brand.

 

Couple interesting questions:

- Can the players establish licensing deals for other mediums? NCAA '23, broadcasts (??), tweets with images, etc. I'm just thinking merch because that's the easiest way to experiment.

- How would these licensing deals impact the coaching compensation market? Hard to imagine that as soon as the floodgates open for this that football coaches will still be able to command their massive portion of the athletics salary. Hard to see them sticking around and taking paycuts without a mass exodus for the NFL. Not my opinion, just taking the thought experiment through.

This is a very eye opening breakdown on Nebraska's NIL as it stands now. In short, we're not near as well set up as we thought, and it's going to take a collective effort from the entire fan base - not just big donors - to make it actually work for us

I think the NIL money will get better if the results on the field get better. Nobody wants to make an investment with zero return

Stopped reading when most of what he was relying on is a debunked number from what was supposedly going on at Texas A&M.  That guy likes to act like he knows everything but he just likes to hear himself talk (or see himself type, as the case may be).

 

Are we the best?  No.  But most reports are we are much better than what articles like this try to claim.  Just look at what Casey Thompson and Ochaun Mathis said last year.
