Schools like VCU that play DI 🏀 and don’t have 🏈 teams (or don’t have FBS 🏈 teams), are going to have a big advantage in paying their 🏀 players post-House.
They’ll be able to use a larger amount of their $20M cap to pay 🏀 players than schools using $15M of their cap for 🏈.
VCU will pay its athletes directly starting next year, as colleges embark on a new era. VCU expects to pay $4-5m to compensate its players.

New book.
Only a few chapters in, but would recommend for those in college sports.

🔎 Inside "The Hidden NIL Economy"
📰Washington Post NIL Data vs
🚪Opendorse NIL Data
@PostSports did a deep dive into NIL disclosure data and I wanted to see how it compares to the @Opendorse dataset... (the 3rd stat comparison is my favorite)

Really excited to finally be putting together an NIL certificate program for coaches! I bought NILforCoaches.com a couple of years ago, knowing coaches needed more education both to help their athletes and to land their next job. Sign up on NILforCoaches.com now if you want to be notified when the program becomes available!

The NCAA no longer has any real power or authority over college athletics.
That power lies with conferences.
The SEC and Big Ten specifically.
And as Ross notes, they’re now governing and operating professional sports leagues.
While not producing any real decisions, Thursday’s joint Big Ten-SEC meeting is a clear first step down a bumpy road of change.
And they are driving the car. Buckle up.
“Those who have the gold make the rules.”

This is basically a high interest, payday loan for college and high school athletes.
Get cash now in return for giving up a percentage of later NIL earnings, including payments from collectives.
Athletes should think long and hard before deciding to do this.
A company founded and fronted by Kendrick Perkins is offering college and HS athletes upfront money in exchange for a portion of their NIL earnings. Experts say the deals resemble high-interest loans and could be taking advantage of players. Details:

Last week, Oklahoma St announced it’s holding the first concert ever at Boone Pickens Stadium, to raise NIL funds.
It’s been a huge success.
Four shows have sold out.
A reported $3.2-$3.5M in NIL funds has been raised.

Murray State didn’t have an #NIL plan when its current AD got there.
So he met with community leaders to get a collective formed.
This is a good example of an AD embracing change and making it clear to donors and supporters why they need to do the same.

Arkansas’s head 🏈 coach believes large discrepancies in amounts of #NIL compensation players were receiving last year affected team chemistry.
He thinks rev-sharing will help solve that.
Teams will need to figure out the best way to distribute the money to avoid this issue.
Speaking at the Hawgs Illustrated Sports Club last week, Sam Pittman discussed two keys he sees to a successful season.

Big 12 presidents would be crazy not to invite UConn into the league.
In the new world of college athletics, the UConn men’s and women’s basketball programs have a ton of value.
