That may have been part of the deal with the Deion/Barstool ties.

Go make that money!  Dominate the competition!  Then go pro!

It's really simple and smart if you think about it.

I think it's funny he mentions greats like Jerry Rice and Walter Payton.  I don't think either one of those guys were the number one recruit coming out and on top of it getting 1 mil in NIL bonus.  They were great because of the moon sized chip on their shoulder.

I think it was probably trending this way already.  But this mornings news might have kicked the door down.

So, did Nebraska make a mistake asking boosters to donate to $150,000,000 facilities project instead of paying players a million?

I would say "mistake" is probably too strong.  I think the functionality of the new facility will still be a big draw.

But going forward, I think you could make a pretty strong case to at least split that equally.

I was just thinking the same thing!

True, since I think the fund raising and planning started before NIL was a thing.

So, now with these new NIL rules, can a college golfer play a few pro events, make money and still golf in college,

Wouldn’t be able to collect any winnings. Could accept an appearance fee.

It's a little more complicated for golfers, as they have to keep their amateur status to play in college and to play in the big amateur events, like the US Amateur.  The USGA has relaxed their rules to fit with NIL, however they can't receive prize money (can receive up to $750 in shop credit/gift certificate), nor can they make any money giving golf lessons, but they can receive money for being in advertisements, autographs etc.
