It is my understanding he bought a car last year.

Some of those NIL deals aren't cash. They are cash equivalent deals.

Or at least parts of the value are

Y’all wanna revisit this now? Brown has left the Memphis team. Hmmm wonder why? Can’t be cause he didn’t get paid the money he was promised huh? Good thing he got a good agent and better daddy.

My immediate reaction was similar, but then...it actually makes me feel bad that young adults are being taken advantage of in the current system by morally unscrupulous people.
