    NIL Collectives may be out of business

    The athletes' lawyers are saying that they never agreed to bar the collectives. All they agreed to, they say, was that any NIL deal with an "associated entity" had to have a "valid business purpose." The lawyers are making that argument because barring the collectives restricts who athletes can...

    Rutgers appoints a second interim Athletic Director

    I saw a bumper sticker in Chapel Hill: "I root for UNC and whoever is playing NC State!"

    Rutgers appoints a second interim Athletic Director

    I spent a semester teaching at UNC Law, and I can vouch for what you say about the rivalries with NC State and Duke.

    Are we sure Greg Schiano isn't in the mix for AD job?

    IMHO, we wouldn't have had a year-long search if GS was considered a candidate; he would have been appointed already. I also fail to see why GS would want the job --he's not *that* old -- or why he would feel himself qualified as we move into a world in which business savvy has become at least...

    Rutgers appoints a second interim Athletic Director

    I doubt he would have accepted a long-term contract to coach if he didn't want to coach at 59 -- which, as I suggested in a later post than the one you quote, isn't particularly old. In addition, he really doesn't fit the profile of what Rutgers is looking for -- see the article linked by @MrsScrew.

    Players' associations attack proposed NIL legislation

    (Somewhere there's a thread on NIL legislation, but the search engine doesn't seem to let me search for old threads on this site.) The Athletic reports that the NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, and MLS have all urged Congress to reject proposed legislation to write the House settlement into law and to grant...

    Schools that have opted out of the House settlement

    Schools outside the Power 4 conferences have the right to opt out of the House settlement. A school that opts out can't pay their athletes and must continue to comply with the limits the NCAA set on the number of scholarships. A school that opts out still must contribute to the $2.78 billion...

    Are we sure Greg Schiano isn't in the mix for AD job?

    Maybe this is because I'm *really* old, but 59 doesn't seem that old to me. Maybe at some point he'll want a desk job, but my guess would be that he will want to coach at least for the next 5-7 years. Being a coach is much more fun than being an AD, especially now that revenue-sharing makes the...

    NIL Collectives may be out of business

    Why ignore the market? Because the market was producing bad results -- it was upsetting competitive balance by giving too much clout to institutions that had a lot of alums willing to make "NIL" deals. Those are the schools that are the traditional powers, and so the rich were become richer and...

    NIL Collectives may be out of business

    This is overblown IMHO. The FAQs say that an athlete can make an NIL deal with an associated entity if the deal has a valid business purpose. The guidance says that no deal with a collective has a valid business purpose. So the FAQs and the guidance are actually not in conflict; both allow...

    Rutgers appoints a second interim Athletic Director

    Why would Greg want to be the AD? Why would he want to be an administrator rather than a coach? (Certainly he's too sensible to want to try to do both jobs, particularly now that being an AD has become even more complicated than in the past?)I think it's more likely that Tate will find someone...

    NIL Collectives may be out of business

    It's a false market in that the collectives have been paying athletes for their NIL far more than their NIL is worth. And we can measure what it's worth by what someone other than a collective would pay for it. As I suggested, the new rules may work because athletes will be forfeiting legal...

    NIL Collectives may be out of business

    By a market, he means a fair market. In a fair market, the participants play by the rules. What you're suggesting is that the participants -- the players and the alums -- will never play by the rules just as they didn't before there was NIL. Maybe that will prove correct. Or maybe the fact...

    NIL Collectives may be out of business

    Barring collectives doesn't just hurt collectives. It hurts athletes because they won't be able to earn money from payments by the collectives. Instead they'll be confined to what the schools pay them and to what they can get from third parties other than collectives. And it's thought that will...

    Rutgers appoints a second interim Athletic Director

    Some of you may recall that I have been saying for months that there would be no decision on a new AD until the new President took office. The new President understandably wants to play a role in the AD's selection, and no candidate in his right mind would want to take the job without being sure...
