NIL deals vary from one collective to another. There is no "standard"... :cool:
So…what’s the money for? Nothing? Are the athletes required to do anything for the money? Are they “required” to do anything for the money?
I didn’t ask about a “standard”; I asked about what athletes “must” do for the money, or is there even a requirement that they do anything.
Only thing I knew about were the car deals for Ewers and Rattler; did they actually do commercials for the dealerships or just drive the cars?
There is obviously no reporting, or even requirements to report, what these deals are; that was the main point of my post. Nobody really knows anything about these deals, other than bits and pieces here and there. They shouldn’t be secret, unless they are because they are in fact being paid to at least enroll in certain schools. Allowing them to operate in darkness is doing exactly what few wanted; shine the light so everyone knows what’s going on.

Gadsden, Al.
I truly wonder what these kids are taking in school. Does their destination school have the same program? Do their credits transfer? Are they starting anew on something else? Will they perpetually take freshman level courses?
At some point all of these kids will be told by their body or someone else, that they are done with ball. Saban has said he’s trying to prepare his young men for a life after football. Seems to me a lot of this portal business is kids chasing money now (of which they have zero clue how to manage it and will blow it) and chasing money later through the NFL (of which a vast majority will never make) and not preparing for life outside of ball. Would be a good research article to write for some person. Figure out to what degree this portal mess has helped or hurt those who get in it.
Sounds like Thesis stuff.

Shocked....not. :cool:
The Horns ultimately failed to show him the requisite amount of love which he demands from an organization and fan base.

Step right up, folks…who’s next in the Agiye Hall “Show Me the Love” sweepstakes? Come one, come all…but come humbled and upon blended-knee...and if you learn to properly emasculate yourself to the degree necessary…you too may try and woo this wonderfully-cool and righteous dude.
