Like a college head football coach…

Giants are paying Daniel Jones almost $2 million a week to not play for them.



Yes re Alston and NIL! 📢

I'm of the view that Alston was a narrow ruling in that it involved compensation for academic-related costs. Although the media has connected Alston to NIL, the case had nothing to do with NIL. I've argued NCAA could actually defend amateurism in court: sportico.com/law/analysis/2….



Wait, this is that episode of The Office where Dwight suggests hand de-sanitizing stations & Jim proceeds to purposely sneeze in Dwight's face & his food... Trump’s defense sec ‘can’t remember washing hands over last decade’ the-independent.com/tv/news/trump-…

"He's a stand up guy... whatever they are paying him at Texas Tech is not enough... he is what college football is all about." @DeionSanders shares what @TexasTechFB Head Coach Joey McGuire means to him 🤝


So fortunate to have friends/colleagues like @mollypageharry, @samcehrlich, and Sarah Stokowski @ClemsonAthLead join recent classes to share their impactful research and knowledge!


Peak NIL:

#UNC’s Kaimon Rucker @_kruck75_ is just a special guy. Rucker will be using funds from his own NIL (Name, Image and Likeness) deals and platform to donate $10,000 directly to the food bank in Asheville NC to help those in the most need in the wake of Hurricane Helene. 🩵🩵

Some news early this morning in Choh v. Brown University, the antitrust challenge to the Ivy League's conference-wide ban on athletic scholarship. The court granted the Ivies' motion to dismiss, finding primarily that the plaintiffs did not adequately allege a relevant market.

The @UISportRecMgmt NIL class was fortunate to hear from @SMcGlone97 about @ArkansasEdgeNIL operations today!


Big thanks to @williswhalen of the @NFLPA for visiting campus and sharing his knowledge about both NFL business operations and working in football with @UISportRecMgmt students!


In no way saying this alleged promise occurred but HYPOTHETICALLY in addition to potential NCAA rules issues a coach’s involvement in determining which athletes receive a collective’s NIL funds could lead to Title IX & gender discrimination issues for a university…

Former UNLV QB Matthew Sluka’s NIL representation, Marcus Cromartie of Equity Sports, told ESPN that Sluka was verbally promised a minimum of $100,000 from a UNLV assistant coach for transferring there. None of that money was paid, per Cormartie.

Francisco Aguilar founded Blueprint Sports, which oversees UNLV's NIL collective. He also happens to be Nevada's Secretary of State. He may care about an unregistered sports agent taking aim at his company.



Contract law profs who don't follow sports & see this & are googling "NIL collective contracts," don't forget to look for athletics scholarship agreements. For more fun, check out universities' grant of media rights to conferences-lots of directly related, timely content here!😀

UNLV starting QB Matt Sluka announces he will redshirt & won’t play rest of season. “I committed to UNLV based on certain representatives that were made to me, which were not upheld after I enrolled. Despite discussions, it became clear these commitments would not be fulfilled in…
