Apparently we have a big package for him, and he said he would return, no ill towards mizzou. he just wants more money.
I’d be curious how our deal would stack up and if the different is essentially negligible, why he’d some back to a worse offensive reality to showcase his talent before hopping off to the NFL.
And yea.
1200+ yards and 10TDs > 800 yards and 3 TDs.

But the radio spots don’t want them, the retailers won’t use them, the public appearances won’t happen if the athlete isn’t at said school.

The sad reality is a lot of these kids come from broken homes or neighborhoods. Flash a lot of money in front of a kid and that is all it takes.
At this point nobody knows the deal with this kid transferring.Heck,we lost our top WR to Bama mainly because he saw all those Bama WR's getting drafted in the 1st Rd and he obviously thought he could improve his draft status.

If Universities had not been selling jerseys with player names and numbers on them (and other player-specific products), this would not have been an issue.
I never saw universities selling names on the back of jerseys. But I'm in a limited bubble.
Regardless, this was broken even beyond jersey sales (musicians, social media influencers, kids of famous people, etc..) the NCAA had no grasp of reality.
It would have and should have been an issue.
The pushback was because of the obvious (lack of ability to govern and desire of programs to take advantage of every loophole afforded)

Please.
It was far deeper than schools selling jerseys. EA sports made a fortune with their CFB video games not too mention the NCAA hammering athletes who fessed up to signing memorabilia (AJ Green,Todd Gurley) and did absolutely nothing if your lawyered up and lied about (Johnny Manziel)
The rules against NIL were gonna get challenged regardless of what schools were selling in their bookstore.

But in season contact should be strictly verboten
Drink said in an interview a week or two ago that teams had been in contact with players on his team already. If a kind wants to leave he should be able. It should also be against the rules to recruit kids away directly by other teams.

EA sports did nothing wrong.
The issue was the "edit" ability of the game to allow the user (or third party company) to mirror player images, numbers, and likenesses. And what player wasn't going to edit the game to match what we saw on Saturdays?

Played many of games of college football with Razorback players during my time at Arkansas. They always loved playing as themselves in the game. Never heard a single one complain about not getting paid for it.

Please they obviously modeled their players after current without using their name and number just like they did with boxing.

The settlement felt inevitable. When gamers played as "Texas A&M QB No. 2" in the NCAA Football franchise over the past few season, for example, it was the worst-kept secret that they were playing as Johnny Manziel. But, because it wasn't actually Manziel—even though the avatar was clearly modeled after him—the NCAA, CLC and EA Sports didn't have to pay him a dime.

We will never be able to play with the big boys when it comes to NIL. We don't have the die hard support from our rich and famous alum (ie. Waltons, Kroenkes, Founders of Panda Express, our hollywood actors and singers) or corporations (ie. Enterprise, Schnucks, O'Reillys, Emerson, Energizer, Anheuser-Busch, Edward Jones). If we did, we could at least compete.

Fans are the ones who changed the player profiles. There were websites devoted to adjusting the settings.
It is cheaper to settle out of court.

Make it like European club soccer. Sign them to contracts and allow transfer fees. Would help finance non power 5 athletic budgets as well

This is being done through the usual shady underworld of handlers and hangers-on. *cough*Demetrious Johnson*cough*
Just enough plausible deniability for it to be hard to actually punish.

I sure am glad free agency is a part of college athletics. Hopefully, he takes Cook with him.

EA also ADMITTED they were also using players likeness but should have 1st amendment protection.

EA argued that, even if it was using player likenesses, it was doing so in the same way as an impressionist uses a celebrity's mannerisms to make a joke.

Do what?It was very much settled in court by a 3 judge panel.

An employer cannot prevent someone from making a living. Transfer fees could be deemed unenforceable as their intent is clearly preventative.
Is it all that different from buyouts designed to prevent poaching a coach?
