deal was more inline with what people envisioned. I'm fairly certain Clark also got the kind of NIL money we don't like but that there's no way to stop so long as the sports team is tied to the university.

So, no, I would not say that Clark herself is a great example of how we thought NIL would work, just that Clark has also received traditional endorsement deals in addition to what we now call NIL money.

Caleb Williams had several endorsement deals in college (Nissan, Dr Pepper, and some others). Is he a great example of how NIL should work?
