[quote]May be dumb question but is NIL contribution a company makes a tax deductible expense?[/quote]
1) Yes, obviously it's tax deductible. It's an advertising expense, which reduces taxable income.
2) No, there is no limit. What possible limit would there be? Is there a cap on the amou...

[quote]Experts say today they’d pick LSU[/quote]
I cant help but notice that all of the predictions regarding Pickett and LSU come with the massive caveat that we'd be the choice [b][i]today[/i][/b]. Seems to indicate an expectation that things will change between now and signing day - which, i...

[quote]This. Only significant difference is Reggie Bush muscle mass[/quote]
Yep - with how obviously outrageous bush's movement skills were, it's easy to mentally toss him into the "scat back" category. Although he was by no means a *big* RB, he wasn't skinny or even particularly small. At the ...
re: When is the ncaa gonna regulate NIL

I'm genuinely not sure there's been another recruit that was an absolutely-positively-cannot-miss situation like this one. We've had plenty of big-time recruitments throughout the years, but this one is different to me.
Obviously him being an in-s...

I'm sorry but this is the absolute stupidest talking point in the entire universe (made even dumber by the fact that you spelled morale incorrectly).
