Dylan….Fanatics Deal

[zappaa]

Is the perfect definition of true NIL.
A company projecting future profits and earnings based solely on public demand and marketability.
Fanatics research tells them Dylan will tap into the number 1 media capital in the world.
Fanatics is not paying a cent for a portal QB or TE for us.
There were a lot of factors that played into Dylan’s choice, relationship with Pike, RHJ, his mom…. We had every factor helping us in his decision.
I believe the Fantastics offer had Dylan chose to go elsewhere would not have been as substantial…. Fanatics thinks Dylan and the number 1 media capital of the world are going to be a great marriage.

Otani in 48 hours out does Messi.

Lets pray we get a second year out of him!! but thats wishful thinking at this point

I hope the program can stay laser focus on winning and not how to maximize the value of it's players in the eye's of companies.

A 2nd year from Dylan or Ace would be potentially terrible.

That's means they played all year and substantially underperformed.
Dropping from their current high 1st round draft pick projection.

Even if they got hurt and didn't play most of the year, their draft projection wouldn't likely fall much.

Two one and done’s on the floor at once leaves Gavin open to score 30 a night.

Imagine if Gavin has a monster sophomore season and leaves for the NBA along with Ace and Dylan? A wild possibility for RU.

Yep, both are projected top 5 picks. If they’re back for a second year then something has gone terribly wrong.

That dude left semi alone to shoot in rhythm without even thinking about creating his own shot, would put a show on every night

 

[Scangg]

Yeaaa as mentioned people need to stop hoping for 2 years from Dylan or Ace. It only happens if they massively underperform which is not a good thing for the player or the program

Or, they win the national championship and had so much fun they decide to do it again!

I doubt his deal have been lower at Duke or Kansas.

 

[zappaa]

I doubt his deal have been lower at Duke or Kansas.

Along with upfront money, I think he’d make far more in royalties based on sales
If he’s a star in this market than he would at Duke or Kansas.
Rutgers is a media darling when we’re good.
Just my opinion.

Love baseball but I would be surprised if Ohtani is anywhere close to Messi’s global (Addidas, Nike, you name company) jersey sales outside of the recent days post signing of Ohtani big contract for Fanatics.

Globally speaking there’s just no comparison between the number of fanatics for Futbol and Beisbol.

I understand the record is most jerseys sold in a 48 hour time span, so I’m sure you’re correct.
But there’s a hell of a lot of people in Japan, Taiwan, Korea and China

Given their East coast presence, they could become our Oregon - Nike (obviously not with respect to gear, etc).

I'm going back to Ho Chi Minh for Christmas. When I lived there I saw a lot of Dodger stuff. I'll be on the look out for Ohtani jerseys on the street.

100%. I live in Europe and see kids wearing Miami FC Messi jerseys quite often (Ronaldo Al Nassr ones as well). I've probably seen a baseball jersey once or twice in my decade here. And both times it was an American tourist on holiday.

And hopefully next year you will see people walking around wearing Ace Bailey and Dylan Harper jerseys . . .

Wearing jerseys with “2” and “4” in ‘24 is looking like it’s going to be a special year!

And thanks to NIL, we can buy them.

*not looking for an NIL debate, just think this is the right way for kids to make money off their names, one that benefits fans and athletes alike.

Now do Asia!

Even then. I guarantee you there are more Son jerseys in all of Asia than Ohtani by a long shot.

China is a big part of the Asian population and they’re not fans of the Japanese for historical reasons and baseball interest is insignificant. Taiwan (Chinese Taipei) on the other hand, is another story.

I’m Dominican heritage and appreciate baseball like all Spanish speaking cultures from the Caribbean and there's significant interest in countries like Venezuela, Colombia, Mexico and Nicaragua but globally it’s

1) Soccer
2) Basketball
3) everything else.

Then you’re not following the best players in the sport.

FYI: I had the same American attitude about the game until my daughter started playing and excelling in the game of soccer. Up until then, I basically only watched soccer every four years during the World Cup but realized I had to better educate myself on the game. Hell I even started watching EPL [English Premier League] early weekend mornings.

You are correct, I have no interest.

I will be in Tokyo in March so I will look for Ohtani jerseys but when I was in Tokyo last fall I was surprised by the number of kids wearing New York Yankees hats. I saw more Yankees hats than any other US sports team (I wouldn’t know what a soccer teams logo look like).

Most of the people outside of the US wearing NY Yankees hats are doing so completely unaware of what the logo represents. The logo is just a popular fashion item.

In soccer terms PSG (Paris St. Germain) has become this thanks to their sponsorship with the Jordan Brand.

Close friend of mine works for a Korean clothing company that has the licensee/rights to produce MLB apparel outside of the U.S and their best sellers are Yankees clothing in pink, purple and red.
