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.

Very true. This system isn't anything about actual NIL. And it really isn't about players getting paid.
It most closely resembles a "Bachelor Auction" where the Bachelor gets to keep the money. And right now it looks like you can basically auction yourself off once a year

UGA has a couple doing a podcast with advertisers. The terms of that deal are a matter between them and their business partners. It is not just about advertisements...you can call your school's collective right now and have some players show up at your kids birthday party or bar mitzvah. No one can tell you how much you pay them, that's a private matter as it should be.
