The current DOJ is a criminal outfit.
But he made contribution and gave something of value to the university wothout hitting the field checks notes: he had a room and board partial scholarship. (And movie didnt mention it, but he could have been on the g.i.bill which is also a type of scholarship)
The g.i. bill is only 3 years yet athletes can be on scholarship at least 6 years and possibly upwards of 8 under certain circumstances. shouldnt we treat our veterans better than athletes who may or may not "give something in return" to their universities
It’s like a symbiotic relationship. The athletes NIL is worthless without the school, and the schools value increases with the quality of the player.
So player A NIL value skyrockets when he goes from UL to LSU. Same player, same skillset. Richer clients supporting the LSU collective. The contract can absolutely be the player advertising in a UL uniform only, or anywhere he’s playing.
I don’t understand how they can’t fashion a contract that has a do not compete clause in it.
NIL could not have worked out better for the NCAA, the universities or outfits like the TV networks. At least so far.
Instead of them sharing some of the cash that they are making off of these athletes, they made the freaking fans pay them! It’s actually pretty brilliant.
Kind of reminds me of american idolrecord companies used to have to scout and scour clubs and small venues (at a cost) now they can make money off of the search
However, the fine print most new music NOW SUCKS, so they make more money in the short term but will it last in long term, same q now for college sports
