MMA Gym Offer For U Miami Players.
$500 mo to everyone on the 90 player football roster.
selling a kid on his maybe/possible earnings potential is one thing, more of an assured near guarantee is another.
seems to me regardless of whether school Ath Depts were thinking in full roster terms for the NIL before, they now are or will be tomorrow.
with the U Miami/gym franchise thing coming out with a full roster rather than individual player angle, that has to change some thinking fast at every school.
something not discussed here before, is how involved can the schools themselves be.
for instance, can a school put together a bundling/packaging of sponsors that would guarantee X amount per month/yr to everyone on the team for fball and bball? (on top of all individual deals the kids do).
i could see IU and others dedicating someone to just solicit and manage full roster sponsors for fball and bball, bundle/package them, and manage them, where they could then guarantee X amount to every player on the team to recruits.
if schools legally can't do this themselves, no doubt going through a third party could get around that.
the instant one major school does this, all others will be forced to follow suit the next day..
probably not a lot of businesses will match the MMA Gym's per player Miami offer, but a bundling/packaging of many smaller full roster offers could become significant, on top of any bigger deals.
free services in lieu of money could be packaged in as well.
obviously bball would be a smaller full roster investment for a business than fball.

while i'm not a fan of how schools/NCAA decided to respond to the public/govt push back to the "max monetization for adults, nothing for the players" system the adults had been using by implementing the NIL thing, never the less it is what it is, and now how are schools, rather than just the kids themselves, going to proceed with this.
on a side note, where are the lines drawn as to what involvement a school can have per something like this?
could signage, tickets, game program mention, whatever, be offered by the schools to said business for participation in said full roster deals?
and if not, would there not be easy workarounds for that?
whatever we thought this was going to be, hard not to see it evolve fast into things we didn't foresee.
