Nearly $80M in NIL deals get commission's OK

The new College Sports Commission has cleared more than 8,300 NIL deals worth nearly $80 million and says 28,342 students have signed up on its NIL Go platform.

Just an interesting thing to track. Haven't tried to look at the site to try see what's verified, but some things of note in the article

"The CSC said values of the deals ranged as high as $1.8 million. It said its "deal flow reports" will be updated on a regular basis."

"It said 332 deals had not been cleared to date and 75 had been resubmitted, while none had entered arbitration, which is available for parties who feel their deals have been wrongly rejected."

Sounds like the commission is at least making a reasonably serious effort to examine the validity of the deals.
 

That is an average of about $9600 per NIL deal. I think it’s good they are reporting these figures because it gives players are more realistic idea of what they can expect.

Grapevine information that I heard from the U is that all Freshmen scholarship football players get $75,000 each and no one gets different. It becomes merit based after that. Not sure on time frame of contracts.

I am family friends with a Minnesota kid who has a full ride at another school considered a traditional power. His NIL deal with that School was well over $100,000. And he is currently a back up.

In all seriousness, that seems almost too reasonable to be true lol.

Well, as another poster (Left of the Dial) mentioned, what is being reported by some posters could be either revenue sharing, NIL, or a combination of both. I assumed that the article mentioned at the top of this post is dealing only with NIL.
 





1.The reported $80M seems shockingly low considering the rumors of helmet school collectives doling out $10-20M or so yearly.

2. The incentive now is…back to the legendary bags of cash. I’ll guess there is zero effective auditing or enforcement mechanism. I’d also guess many/most of these collectives will soon be run by inventive businessmen - if they aren’t already. Or boosters will simply bypass them completely.

Shoot me down.

I only have one connection who is getting NIL currently and it’s basketball so a different game but

He was at around 85-90k until his teammates transferred out then he was bumped to well over 100k to around 125-130k

He was on a big ten squad. He played significant minutes
