how many gum drops you tossin’ in?

That’s part of the problem.  I agree.   My gum drops are going to MU in the form of tuition.  When that is done and my others are through with their education (wherever they go) I’ll be in a better position to share with the players. 

But my contribution will be small change.  We’ll need big money to keep the future all-Americans Shaka is going to coach up!

I call B.S. on stating Miami offered Nijel Pack 600K to transfer there. That is in direct violation of Florida law.

Florida statute:
An intercollegiate athlete at a postsecondary educational institution may earn compensation for the use of her or his name, image, or likeness. Such compensation must be commensurate with the market value of the authorized use of the athlete’s name, image, or likeness. To preserve the integrity, quality, character, and amateur nature of intercollegiate athletics and to maintain a clear separation between amateur intercollegiate athletics and professional sports, such compensation may not be provided in exchange for athletic performance or attendance at a particular institution and may only be provided by a third party unaffiliated with the intercollegiate athlete’s postsecondary educational institution.

I'm sure that if the offer was made, it was made in a way that does not violate Florida Law. I'm certain that you are aware that there are ways around laws like this.

I would like to see this source. Do I think once he gets on campus, some donor will get a nice bag of cash for him? Of course. I question the 600K, as well as you stating Miami offered it to him, especially prior to him enrolling.

[Newsdreams]

Thanking the Lord is bullcrap?

For putting up stats on a sports box score, yes.

hey man, hoop at Marquette. $200k education. Fiserv Forum. Sweet charter flights with unlimited Subway subs and Gatorade. And, and, Coach Shaka says all the swag you want.
What’s that? You need $600k? Welp…I can get you $10k from Billybob’s Chevrolet here in town, and $20k from Fake Chili Is Us. But ya gotta eat 10 bowls every non game-day Saturdays at noon. Might be able to squeeze $10g from Farmboy Cheese Curds….that ain’t bad, and Joey here will do your homework! We good? 
NIL is a beautiful thing, brahs.

When I said Miami offered I didn't mean that the University directly offered him. I meant that someone who wanted him to go to Miami made it known to him that he could make that amount of money in NIL should he choose to go there.

Capitalism is a beautiful thing! If you hate the NIL, you are probably a communist.

Probably why the Badgers have no NIL deals.

Thats still a violation under the NCAA and Florida law.  Where's this source stating a specific amount?

[avid1010]

Hahaha

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

It was something I was told. And again, you and I both know that there are ways around it. I'm sure that if the offer happened, it was done in a way that didn't violate the letter of the law,  even if it did violate the spirit of the law.

If the prospective athlete is not enrolled in the school, its an illegal inducement under Florida law. Whether or not they enforce it, that's another story. Same with the NCAA. From what you described its a pay to play, which is against Fl law, and NCAA regs, especially if a dollar amount was given. What I make up about that, is that what you were told is not exactly what happened.

That's fine.  I think you are overestimating the difficulty of a non university entity communicating how much a recruit could make without violating a law and a regulation that has yet to be enforced

[lawdog77]

I don't think I'm not. I have no doubt that these won't be enforced by Florida. The NCAA states they are investigating some of these deals, but I won't hold my breath.

[lawdog77]

Oh that's adorable!

It might be adorable to you, but that's the law.

I will stop being a college basketball fan before I would give any of my money for an NIL.

But no one is going to force you to do this you know.
