    Zach Edey did a lot of complaining about not being able to make any money off NIL. If they couldn’t find a way for someone like him, it must be pretty difficult. 

    It really isn't that difficult. Just go to a different country and then they can get paid. It just takes some planning and coordinating. Extra steps that the non-international players don't have to deal with. 

    That is why he complained so much.

    One quick Google search would have answered all your questions. :D

    I think it makes sense to stay in Canada - international students can't sign NIL deals so if we get a good one it will be less likely that they're poached.  There's got to be some overlooked talent in the Winnipeg area and in that case our location would actually help us for once.

    International students can get NIL deals. They just can't get paid while in the US. As long as they are outside of the US when they receive the money they can get paid whatever they want in NIL. 

    It's not as smooth, but these big schools will find ways to pay the players that they want.

    Good thing we’re showing him that he is a priority to us!! Kids want to go to places that they feel wanted and like a priority!
     

    Let’s get him!!

    I hope our qbs will be able to run and scramble for 1st downs and keep the opponents guessing this year

    And throw the ball further than 3 yards in the air

    Isn't there a qui-pro-quo for the business, though?  I thought the idea behind Name, Image, and Likeness was that athletes could sell their Name, Image, and Likeness to a business in exchange for money.  For example, the Tellmans give $X to the collective so long as Sioux players appear in a Red Pepper commercial; or every Friday night Cameron Berg needs to send out a tweet telling the drunk hockey crowd to pick up a Grinder After the Game; etc.  

    Yes. That is how it is supposed to be. That is true NIL. All the big schools are doing 'Pay for Play' right now.

    I guess my point/questioning is, say Berg gets $30k from Red Pepper through this collective. Does him appearing in a commercial/tweeting about Red Pepper have a positive ROI for Red Pepper? I guess I just question if it does. Look at Mattress Cam in Fargo. Not sure what he got to be in those commercials but I doubt him doing that NIL deal had a positive ROI for the mattress store.

    I think it may be hard to continue to convince the businesses in GF year after year that contributing to this collective gives them a better benefit than contributing to other groups/foundations. Not sure it is sustainable. I could be completely wrong though! Just sharing my thoughts on NIL at small schools.

    Maaaaaaybe as part of an advertizing budget. 

    Possibly I suppose. Probably better ways to advertise though.

    It is going to be hard to try and convince enough businesses/owners that this payment to the collective is anything other than just a donation. And if that is the case, I would think a lot of these people would rather donate to a group that gives them a tax benefit for their donation.

    There is no/very very minimal chance of ROI through the collective at a small mid-major school. At the big schools there is definitely a ROI case by contributing to their local schools collective.

  8. I just don't see the ROI to donating to the collective if you're a business in Grand Forks, ND. 

    It would have to be looked at as strictly a "donation" (but with no tax benefit since the collective is for-profit) and not an actual investment.

    Any insights into how this goes down? A coach sits across from a player they have spent two years supporting and developing in their academic and athletic life. Kid says everything is fine one day and the next the coach sees them in the portal? 

    So the kid was lying and plotting the whole time for a bag of silver. One injury, or they don't meet expectations, and that new school, which sees them as a piece of meat, will throw them on the scrap heap and have a new bag for the next one on the list.

    Integrity, honesty, friendships, gone for a bag of silver that will be gone in a year.

    This is such a bad take

    I mean in other sports you’re seeing the NIL numbers being thrown out left and right. I think it’s a fair question. I get that it doesn’t need to be public but still. 

    Yeah I see no issue with him asking that question either.

    I think the majority of people that saw that post thought the exact same thing.

    On WCCO last night Mike Max said Payne from gophers is gonna get $700k+ somewhere else.  Also hinted the SU big man is approaching 7 figures but wasn’t definite on that. Looks like he went to Nebraska. 

    I'm guessing that 7 was a typo and was meant to be a 6 because there is absolutely no chance Morgan is getting even remotely close to that amount from Nebraska.
