NIL’s

Certainly would seem to give Tennessee school's a leg up on all others. And there in lies the problem, different states, different rules. College sports are doomed.

Agreed. IMHO, professional collegiate sports are doomed.

Every AD has their palm out, and are begging fans across America to subsidize their universities payrolls and dump money into this pilot project.

They can grease me at the door, via concessions, and merchandise.

I plan to enjoy it while I can, and have no problem watching from home if the price points for STs, etc. hits a certain amount.

Power conferences working on contract to bind schools to new enforcement rules, with strict punishments

In a stunning move, the four power conferences have drafted a contract that would bind schools to new enforcement rules and require them to waive the right to sue over decisions, sources tell Yahoo Sports.

What do you mean? I took it as the opposite. If the schools actually sign onto this (huge if), we may not see the smorgasbord of state legislation and schools literally playing by different rules. Its especially important since it also says you can't challenge Deloitte. It seems like a step in the right direction.

"In a gathering at ACC spring meetings last week, Deloitte officials shared notable figures with athletic directors and coaches, including that 70% of past deals from booster collectives would have been denied, while 90% of past deals from public companies would have been approved.

In March, Deloitte shared more figures with administrators. About 80% of NIL deals with public companies were valued at less than $10,000 and 99% of those deals were valued at less than $100,000."

Wouldn't this kind of change be terrible for SJU? The whole reason we've shot back into relevancy is because Repole (and others) are spending millions on the players, giving us an advantage we never had before the NIL era.

Yeah for us, it's a much more complex equation. I'm not sure exactly what to make of it.

as the article mentioned...Tennessee state law is allowing the University to continue with their own deals. If this new group tries to stop Tennessee, it will be back to the courts. and as many podcasts are commenting, this new deal will try to place a cap on SEC schools and Big10. Its going to be hard to pass!
"At the center of much of the scrutiny around the settlement is “NIL Go,” the Deloitte-run clearinghouse charged with determining if third-party NIL deals with athletes are legitimate and of fair market value. The clearinghouse is using an algorithm to establish a “compensation range” for an assortment of deals — a concept that many legal experts expect to trigger a bevy of legal challenges.

With a lot of time on my hands, I find myself following Women's softball at this time of the year. This years Texas Tech team caught my interest because their star pitcher NiJaree Canady is Black and I had never seen a Black college softball pitcher before. So far, she has pitched 5 straight complete games going into tonight's championship game against Texas. While this is a truly remarkable feat, what blew my mind was the fact that Texas Tech gave her a 1 MILLION DOLLAR NIL DEAL to transfer from Stanford.

You can't make this shit up :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

Its incredible that, once you take out the one million dollar donation, the softball team only generated 380k and, even if you factor in the donation, they still worked at a deficit. But hey, they can now win the College World Series so the ROI is still going to be worth it?

Stanford education is tough to let go, but good for her.
 
I just umpired one of the Nassau County HS Softball Championship series, and Glen Cove, after around 35 years, won their classification. They were led by a Black Jr. High School Pitcher who dominated this season as a pitcher and hitter. More importantly, she's a great kid and phenomenal teammate. Can't wait to see her next year as a HS Senior.
