This will help IMO. Should make companies more interested in associating teams.

Most of these NIL's are about attracting recruits....

My kitchen pantry full of built bars says otherwise. I don't even like protein bars.

I think that was a good one. Early, national news, not big individual deal

If he fulfilled everything he needed to on his contracts, then awesome for him

LeonMarek

He wasn’t going to start anyways. I don’t know how valuable his NIL even was

It's to bad they can't put these off until after a players freshman year

But these people are doing it to attract the best recruits....

The vast majority of sponsorship deals are more about the executive egos getting stroked than any ROI

Maybe it actually needs to be tied to a real market value for NIL. Once it is, then it'll work as it should.

This is like Jamarcus Russel's guaranteed contract. Same team. Weird.

I LOVE THIS. Hope it continues to happen a ton.
