DP said a source told him NIL asking rate for one top HS QB recruit is $8M
For reference, Trevor Lawrence made $7 million last year in his first NFL season.
Can’t imagine this is great for the future of CFB

Any hiccup in the economy and NIL will be the first thing to go
(Heath Squashwell, May 20, 2022 at 12:06pm)
It will be interesting to see if we start seeing contracts like the NFL, with incentives for hitting goals and what not

Completely ridiculous. It's one thing to let a player make money signing autographs or hosting a skills camp

Why? Did people really think this would be autographs and skills camps?

I don’t see a problem with it. Free market.

Yup - great news for that qb.

Free market also leads to monopolies, which tend to be problematic

Monopolies eventually eliminate choice. Not good for economy, short or long term

Once a monopoly becomes a monopoly, no incentive for it to deliver at low cost

So dumb. When an NCAA school NIL is paying an 18 year old more than an NFL QB, you got issues.

is college football a bigger business than the NFL?

No, unless you also think MLB is a bigger deal than the NFL because they have more inventory.

Although I think Nico was $2M/yr, so not apples to apples with Lawrence getting $7M as #1 pick
krindorr
May 20, 12:11pm
Because one is salary, the other NIL aka marketing. Aaron Rodgers get $2M per for State Farm.
Turnpike Lane
May 20, 12:16pm
This is correct. $8M deal is 4 years $2M per year
