According to senior point guard Ryan Nembhard, the current number is $5,000 – not an insignificant sum for a college athlete, even in an NIL climate where some are earning six or seven figures through various endorsements and sponsorship deals.
“I think it’s just $5,000 consistent now,” Nembhard told The Spokesman-Review after Thursday’s game. “At a certain point, (Few) just figured out you’ve got to pay the $5,000. We’re getting way too many techs. So, you won’t see me getting no techs, that’s for sure.”
