More potential NCAA changes

cont .. I then asked ChatGPT what proportion was new/redistributed and it said


There is no definitive, widely accepted percentage breakdown of how much NIL revenue in college sports comes from "new" money versus "redistributed" money, as the market is still evolving and lacks comprehensive tracking. However, there are some observations and estimates based on current trends:

Estimates and Observations

  1. Redistributed Money: ~60-80%
    • A significant portion of NIL revenue appears to come from existing sources in the sports ecosystem:
      • Sponsorship Reallocation: Brands redirect budgets from sponsoring teams, conferences, or events to sponsoring individual athletes. For example, a company may shift part of its college football advertising budget to work directly with a star quarterback.
      • Booster Contributions: Money from boosters, previously directed to athletic departments or facilities, is now funneled into NIL collectives to support athletes directly.
      • University-related Funds: Some NIL agreements involve indirect funding tied to universities, such as collectives formed by alumni or boosters.
  2. New Money: ~20-40%
    • New revenue is entering the ecosystem from previously untapped sources:
      • Local Businesses: Smaller businesses that couldn’t afford traditional sponsorships with universities now find NIL deals with athletes more accessible and affordable.
      • Emerging Industries: NIL deals from non-traditional sectors, such as tech startups, fitness apps, and social media influencers, contribute new money.
      • Athlete-driven Initiatives: Opportunities like personalized merchandise, social media monetization, and hosting camps are creating entirely new revenue streams for athletes.

Challenges in Estimation

  • Lack of Centralized Data: The NCAA and universities don’t systematically track the origins of NIL money.
  • Varied Athlete Reach: High-profile athletes may attract more redistributed money from existing sponsors, while lesser-known athletes might generate new revenue from niche opportunities.

Potential for More New Money

As the NIL ecosystem matures, the percentage of new money may grow as:

  • More brands recognize the value of individual athletes over institutional sponsorships.
  • Athlete-driven content, e-commerce, and social media platforms continue to expand their role in monetization.
To summarize, while the majority of NIL revenue currently seems to stem from redistributed money, the share of new money is growing and may eventually account for a larger portion as the market evolves. A more precise breakdown will require further research and reporting as the NIL market becomes more structured.

That makes sense to me that the bulk of the money is redistributed.

Now try to to make sense of this, or should I say how is all of this going to sort out in the end. On first pass, I have no clue.

I think the mix will change and the article you posted seems to support that. The other conclusion to me is that it will end up back in court when the clearing committee says not fair market value and the school or athlete say, yes it is > arbitration > court. You also have the Tennessee law which says FU to the whole settlement process 🤷‍♂️.

FMV can be incredibly subjective.

Yeah or its really simple, i.e. whatever someone is prepared to pay represents an athlete's FMV. What are they going to say, a QB at a tier 1 team can only get paid $x ... Deloitte's should be running from this as fast as they can .. but I'm sure they are charging a pretty penny to be in the middle.

The whole attempt at equality is a crock of shit in any case. The article you linked says in black and white that the power houses are the ones with the biggest budgets. Trying to fix what colleges can spend ... roflmao. It won't hold up in court. Tennessee have already blown it up, and the colleges don't want parity so they'll blow it up if needs be too - the NCAA and conferences are really not in charge, much as they would like to think they are.
 
I'll repeat myself. I've watched kids lose their jobs because of this minimum wage increase. That's how it works. Firsthand knowledge. That's not a bullshit argument. Saying California is a wealthy state and the 4th or 5th biggest economic power... blah blah blah... when we're billions in debt and facing massive financial shortcomings is trolling 101. I gave you proof and you chose to ignore it.

That money comes from somewhere and that somewhere is business owners.
"Slobodan" or whoever you're you sound just like Karen Bass right about now... Anybody wanna work for "Slobodan" the trogladyte??????
 
Ummmmm "CRUSH".... Maybe it's time to drop the rock bro'......
I want girls treated fair loser and no man should ever be allowed to call himself a lady. No rock to drop, just hammer time Jeter. Your time is coming to an end very soon loser. What a loser. Total loser Jeter!!!
 
Slobo doesn't have conversations. He posts inflammatory word vomit, and feigns surprise when he's called on it, or denies having said it - even after his own quotes are thrown back at him.

When did you call me on something? Did you trip over a set of balls at some point?

If you wait a couple of days, I hear Michelle Obama's will be available for adoption.
 
The Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights issued a memo Thursday(1/16/25) stating that name, image and likeness payments to college athletes must be proportionate between a school's male and female athletes to comply with Title IX

That makes no sense. The NIL money is not coming from the college, so its not receiving any Federal financing and therefore can't be subject to Title IX conditions.

The FAQ sheet is linked below. Basically the college has to provide the "same" opportunities, so if they publicize one sport which could attract NIL, then they need to reciprocate. It explicitly says that external funding is outside of Title IX scope.

 
Let me help everyone out. The men are selfish. The men and the NCAA have agreed that any man that considers himself to be a woman can be one, play with and against the girls and then after the match take showers with them. This system is evil and I blame it on the men. Some men cheat and lie. You can't have it all guys, in fact, if we don't have women, the women will not have a baby boy who will become a young man someday. These crazy lunatics now want to be a gurl. Lastly, Bob the Booster is still a part of the NCAA. Share with the girls' losers!!!
