They were already getting a free education. Also, lots of perks go with being on athletic scholarship at a Division 1 school.


I'd agree with you if it were the school paying them. If Joe Blow who owns a car dealership wants to pay a student athlete to be in a couple of advertisements then idk how you could say that's wrong.

It’s cute that people think these players are actually being paid for their NIL. Ask yourself this, EVERY athlete at major programs is getting paid. How many are you seeing in ads or on TV commercials or doing personal appearances? Yeah, exactly.

I don't have an issue with the above scenario. Always thought they should have a stipend or be allowed to work for a private entity doing promos or ads. But paying these kids hundreds of thousands of dollars with very few strings attached is ridiculous.
