And speaking of criticism, if NIL collectives are by definition an external endeavor by fundraisers and boosters, why are people blaming UND for the lack of one in the first place? Several posters here are calling out Chaves, but for what?

You mean ...

Want an NIL collective? Nothing stops you from starting one and soliciting donations.

In theory, this should work, but not until there is a players' association or some entity to bargain on behalf of all athletes collectively.  Schools are not going to want to do one-off negotiations with their own students.  Can you imagine the chaos when player B finds out that his teammate, player A, got a better cut of jersey sales?  Or player C who didn't push for a better shirt deal gets more playing time than player D who did.  Nightmare scenarios.

The Customs shop at REA likely has a direct deal with the NHLPA.  That would keep them from having to track down individual athletes, and keeps UND out of it other than the fact the UND jersey being customized was itself legally sold (and UND got their cut). 

EDIT: The article doesn't indicate whether any of the 40 schools were actively or directly involved, so whether this is a UND decision at all is unclear. If it's entirely a student opt-in, then criticism of UND is simply misplaced. 

That's what companies like the Brandr group are for.  https://www.thebrandrgroup.com/licensing

With the hockey team tanking big time, don't you think it would be more important to get them back on track? Where is their priorities?

Considering Memorial Village is privately funded venture, not sure what you're raising money for there?
